Safety
• The Progeny ClearVision™ sensor cable should be handled with care. Do
not sharply bend or crimp the sensor cable. Doing so could permanently
damage the sensor.
• This equipment must only be used in rooms or areas that comply with all
rooms used for medical purposes, e.g., IEC, US National Electrical code,
or VDE standards.
• Before cleaning or disinfecting, this equipment must always be discon-
nected from the electrical supply.
• The computer and any other associated equipment (like USB hub) shall be
placed outside the patient’s environment (i.e.: more than 1.5 meters away
from the chair). The operator shall not access the patient and such devices
at the same time.
• The computer and any other associated equipment shall be compliant with
IEC 60950 or IEC 60601.
• Prior to use always cover the sensor with a disposable hygienic protective
cover. A new cover must be used for each patient. It is recommended to
disinfect the sensor between uses.
• The Progeny ClearVision™,

Product Description
Progeny ClearVision™ is a digital imaging system for dental radiographic ap-
plication. The product is to be used for routine dental radiographic examinations such as bitewings, periapicals, etc.
and size 2) are utilized to image different anatomy and for different patient sizes. The CMOS sensor connects directly to a USB connection in a PC without
the need for an intermediate electrical interface. Progeny ClearVision™ works
with a standard dental intraoral x-ray source without any connection to the xray source. Progeny ClearVision™
sensing the production of x-ray and after the x-ray is complete, transfers the
image to an imaging software program on the PC. Disposable sheaths are
used with each use to prevent cross-contamination between patients. Progeny ClearVision™ Sensor is a state of the art intraoral x-ray detector intended
for digital imaging of teeth and the oral cavity. The system provides:
• Immediate production of an image
• Digital image storage and management
• Efficient archiving and recall of images
• Reduction of the X-ray dose to patient
• Elimination of film processing
The components of the Progeny ClearVision™ sensor system are the Digital
Sensor internal USB Cables and, the Sensor Calibration Files.

NOTE
The digital sensor is designed to transform a two dimensional X-ray picture
into an electrical signal. The structure of the sensor is assembled with a first
layer of phosphor material (scintillator) which, when exposed by incident Xrays
sensitive elements of the Sensor where it is transformed to electrical potential.
The electrical signal is sent to the computer for processing.
During installation of the Progeny ClearVision™ sensor system, files specific
to the sensor serial number are stored on each computer where the sensor
will be used. For more details, refer to the Progeny ClearVision™ Installation
section of this manual.
Provides the user interface to acquire, store, retrieve, transmit, review and
post process images acquired by the Progeny ClearVision™ sensor system.
For more details refer to the Progeny ClearVision™ Installation section of this
manual or the specific software user guide.
The Progeny ClearVision™ digital sensor is sensitive to intense UV light.
Therefore, the sensor should be stored in the box provided and never exposed to direct sunlight for extensive periods of time.

Guidance and manufacturer's declaration - electromagnetic emissions
The Progeny ClearVision™ uses RF energy only for its internal function. Therefore, its RF
emissions are very low and are not likely to cause any interference in nearby electronic
equipment.
The Progeny ClearVision™ is suitable for use in all establishments, including domestic
establishments and those directly connected to the public low-voltage power supply
network that supplies buildings used for domestic purposes.
