1 INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
This manual describes how to use and install the
Planmeca ProSensor sensor that is intended to be used
for capturing digital intraoral x-ray images from patient’s
jaw, teeth, gums, roots and root canals by trained dental
care professionals.
Please read this manual carefully before using the
system.
Planmeca ProSensor automatically triggers and captures
images to the start and end of the x-ray radiation so that
any intraoral x-ray unit supporting exposure times and
cones listed in tables of chapter “Exposure values for
Planmeca ProSensor” can be used.
The Planmeca Romexis imaging software or third party
software stating compatibility with Planmeca ProSensor
or software stating compatibility through TWAIN can be
used for image capturing.
Planmeca ProSensor is connected to a computer using
Ethernet or USB interface and it supports Windows and
MAC operating systems, see details in section
“TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS” on page 18.
This manual is valid for following software revisions:
• Planmeca ProSensor Ethernet software version 2.1.0.R
or later
• Planmeca ProSensor USB software version 2.2.1.R or
later
• Didapi software version 4.8.1or later.

Ask the patient to sit down. Place a protective lead apron
over the patient’s chest.
When using the sensor for the first time the message
Loading calibration files will appear on the Romexis
window.
NOTE When connecting the same sensor to another
workstation the calibration files will be reloaded.
Select the appropriate sensor and connect it to the

The patient holds the sensor in place with his finger. The
X-ray beam is directed perpendicularly towards an
imaginary line which bisects the angle between the film
plane and the long axis of the tooth.
The use of the plastic cover is not necessary because the
sensor can be sterilized with liquid. The sterilization must
be done after each patient.
NOTE Be very careful not to put excessive pressure on the
sensor. Do not place a clamp on the sensor. Do not
take occlusal exposures with the sensor, and advise
the user not to bite the sensor.
NOTE Never clamp the sensor package or cable with a
hemostat or an unmodified “Snap-a-ray” holder.
Make sure the Planmeca ProSensor system is ready for
the exposure and communicates with Romexis (refer to
section 6 “PLANMECA PROSENSOR CONTROLBOX

IMAGE QUALITY CONTROL
9 IMAGE QUALITY CONTROL
Verify the image quality after installing the software and
before patient exposure. Perform quality control check
according to the requirements of local authorities, using
for example Quart phantom or similar.
It is recommended to regularly monitor the image quality
using the same phantom according to the requirements of
local authorities. See also the Constancy test manual for
Planmeca Digital Intraoral X-ray System (publication
number 10009324)
Before performing phantom exposures verify that the
brightness and contrast settings of the monitor are
accurate by using a SMPTE test pattern or similar.
9.1 Quality check using SMPTE test pattern
The test image is specified by the Society of Motion
Picture and Television Engineers (www.smpte.org), and
follows the SMPTE Recommended Practise RP 133-1991
Specifications for Medical Diagnostic Imaging Test
Pattern for Television Monitors and Hard-Copy Recording
Cameras. This image should be used for monitor setting
and quality checks performed:
• Before every working day: The 5% gray field inside the
0% field and the 95% gray field inside the 100% field
should be visible. If not, adjust the brightness and contrast
of the monitor.
• Every month: The line raster in the corners and in the
centre must be visible, the vertical and horizontal lines
must form undistorted squares and the homogeneous
grey background must not be coloured.
10 USING THE SENSOR HOLDERS
The sensor holders provide an easy way to position the
sensor for different anatomical and diagnostic needs. For
instructions how to use the sensor holders, please refer to
the manual supplied with the sensor holder package.

11 CLEANING
11.1 Surfaces
11.2 Sensors and cables
CLEANING
NOTE Before cleaning the system, always check that the X-
ray unit and the Planmeca ProSensor system are off
(Planmeca ProSensor ControlBox indicator light is
off).
The surfaces can be cleaned with a soft cloth damped in a
mild cleaning solution.
Stronger cleaning agents can be used for disinfecting the
surfaces. We recommend Dürr System-hygiene FD 333
or respective disinfecting solution.
Planmeca ProSensor sensors allow enhanced infection
control in the surgery.
As the sensor casing is hermetically sealed the sensors
can be immersed in disinfectant solution.
NOTE Always use appropriate instruments for cleaning the
sensors.
NOTE It is mandatory to carefully follow the disinfecting and
cleaning recommendations in order to not damage
the sensors.
CAUTION The sensors cannot be sterilized in
autoclave or UV oven.
Wipe up the sensor surface with a soft cloth damped into
a disinfectant solution. The sensors can be soaked in a
disinfection solution as long as there are no nicks in the
cable.
The recommendable disinfectant solutions are Dürr
System Hygiene FD 322 or FD 333 or similar product. The
immersion time with the Dürr disinfectants is 2 minutes.
If more effective disinfection or cold sterilization is
preferred for cleaning, we recommend the
Johnson&Johnson Cidex Opa high level disinfectant at a
minimum temperature of 20° C with maximum immersion
time of 8 minutes for a reuse period not to exceed 14
days.
User’s Manual
NOTE Follow carefully the manufacturer’s
recommendations on immersion time and
recommended disinfectant liquids.
Planmeca ProSensor 15
CLEANING
Do not leave the sensor in the disinfection solution
overnight. The magnetic connector of the sensor cable
should not be soaked.
• Use a new disposable protection cap for every sensor
usage.
• Wipe up the sensor surface with a compress moisten into
a sterile solution.
NOTE The sensor connector can be cleaned using a soft
cloth.
11.3 Sensor holders
For cleaning the sensor holders refer to the manual
supplied with the sensor holder package.
11.4 Planmeca ProSensor ControlBox
The ControlBox can be cleaned with a soft cloth damped
in a mild cleaning solution.
CAUTION Switch off the unit before cleaning.
NOTE Do not disinfect the unit.
