Safety Issues
Check USBcam4 before Using It
There are no customer-serviceable components in the USBcam4.
However, before each usage, check the outer surface of the
USBcam4 for any signs of p hysical damage or defect. The surface
of the USBcam4 should have a smooth finish, with no evidence of
chipping or damage to either the handpiece housing or the lens
section. If detected, contact your local distributor of Sirona Dental
products for further instructions.
To help ensure proper hygiene and to protect against infectious
disease, refer to Section 5 on page 25 and follow all cleaning and
patient protection recommendations specified there.
Avoid Excessive Temperatures when Using USBcam4
When in use, the LEDs in the USBcam4 may generate surface
temperatures in excess of 106° F (41° C). To avoid the potential risk
of burn, do not use the USBcam4 in a single hand-held position for a
prolonged period. As an additional safety measure, the USBcam4 is
equipped with an Auto-Off feature. Th is f eatu r e turns off the camer a
automatically after 5 minutes of continuous use. The camera can be
turned back on by simply pressing the ON/OFF button on the
handpiece.
Operate the USBcam4 as Directed
Always use the USBcam4 in accordance with the directions and
recommendations contained in this User Guide. Do not attempt to
modify the USBcam4 or use it in system configurations not
specified in this document.
RF Interference Considerations
Although the USBcam4 equipment is designed to provide a
reasonable degree of protection from electromagnetic interference,
according to IEC International regulations, it must be installed at an
adequate distance from electricity transformer rooms, static
continuity units, two-way amateur radios and cellular phones. To
ensure proper op eration, the latter (meani ng, electricity transform er
rooms, static continuity units, two-way amateur radi os and cellular
phones) can be used only at a minimum distance of 5 feet (1.5m)
from any part of the USBcam4 system.
Any instrumentation or equipment for professional use located near
USBcam4 must conform to Electromagnetic Compatibility
regulations. Non-conforming equipment, with known poor
immunity to electromagnetic fields, may not operate properly unless
USBcam4 User Guide B1051082 Rev. 3
iv
they are installed at a distance of at l east 10 feet (3m) and supplied
by a dedicated electric line.
Apply Recommended Procedures for Cleaning the Equipment
Safe and proper operation of the equipment requires that a regular
schedule of preventive maintenance be followed. Refer to the
Protective Measures section of this manual on page 25 for details.
Do Not Connect Items that are Not Part of the System
Only items specified for use with the equipment are to be connected
to the system. The equipment should not be used adjacent to other
equipment that is not part of the system. If, however, use with
adjacent equipment is necessary, normal operation should be
observed and verified in that configuration.
Installers to Ensure that USBcam4 Operates Optimally
Installers must ensure that the USBcam4 provides the user with the
optimal use of the equipment. This includes, but is not limited to,
ensuring the system operates as described in this document.
Installers must also ensure that the system presents no physical
obstacles or hazards during operation and when not in use. To verify
this requirement, installers shall confirm that the USBcam4 is
installed as described in this User Guide and shall perform the
appropriate procedures therein.
Ensure Proper System and PC Workstation Installation and Operation
The USBcam4 has been determined to be in accordance with
international safety standards and is deemed suitable for use within
the patient area, which extends from the patient for a distance of 5
feet (1.5m). To comply with these standards, do not operate nonmedical equipment (such as a PC workstation) inside the patient
area. Outside the patient area, the presence of app roved non-medical
grade equipment and Listed / Approved / certified Information
technology Equipment (ITE) computer equipment is acceptable.
The PC workstation that connects to the USBcam4 via compatible
USB cable is an integral part of a Medical Electrical System. The
PC must be a CE-approved computer system conforming with the
Low Voltage [73/23/EC] and EMC Directive [89/336/ERC]. Also,
to help ensure optimal performance, make sure that all
software programs residing on the workstation are virus-free
and have been adequately tested so they will not impact imaging
applications after installation.
Please refer to documentation provided by the PC manufacturer for
important information about its safe operation and usage.
B1051082 Rev. 3 USBcam4 User Guide
v
Observe Proper PC Workstation Cleaning Methods
To avoid cross contamination, be sure to follow the cleaning
instructions provided by your computer manufacturer and
implement them as part of your normal routine for ensuring proper
sterilization and disinfectant of tools in your dental practice.
Disconnect Camera from USB Cable before Cleaning and Disinfecting
Be sure to disconnect the camera from its USB cable before
performing the cleaning and disinfecting steps. When the procedure
is complete, make sure the camera is completely dry before
reconnecting it.
Always Use Sheaths with Sensors
Use Sirona Dental sh eaths every time the US Bcam4 is used. Never
use the intraoral camera without a protective sheath. Never use a
damaged sheath. Always dispose of the sheath after every patient.
Protective sheaths are single-use devices and must not be reused
under any circumstance. Reuse of single-use devices/instruments
may cause them to become contaminated, compromise their
intended function, and result in patient and user infection, injury
and/or illness.
Recommended Order for Connecting / Disconnecting Camera USB Cable
Connect the USB cable to the camera handpiece before connecting
the cable to the PC workstation. This will prevent an unintended
shock hazard caused by the patient contacting the powered USB
cable accidentally.
Disconnect the USB cable from the PC workstation before
disconnecting the cable from the camera handpiece. This will
prevent an unintended shock hazard caused by the patient contacting
the powered USB cable accidentally.

1.3. System Description
The USBcam4 system hardware consists of the following
components: USBcam4 Handpiece and Holder, USB 2.0 Cable, and
Camera Sheaths. The USBcam4 is connected by USB 2.0 t ype A-B
cable to a compatible Windows 7 (32- or 64-bit), Windows Vista
(32- or 64-bit) or Windows XP (32- or 64-bit) PC workstation,
which provides the power source for the device. To turn on the
USBcam4, press the Power button located near the base of the
handpiece; pressing the button a second time turns the USBcam4 off
(Figure 6).
The holder for the USBcam4 ser ves as storage for the device when
not in use and can be installed in a v ariety of chair-side or adjacent
surface options, providing quick access as well as protection from
accidental damage. The holder also turns off the camera
automatically wh en the handpiece is stored. When the handpiece is
removed, the camera is turned on automatically and is ready for use.
A button to Freeze and Capture / Unfreeze video is located at the
side opposite from the camera LEDs, near the middle of the
handpiece (Figure 6). Built-in support for these video functions is
provided by compatible software programs such as CDR DICOM
for Windows 3.5 and higher, EagleSoft 15.0 and higher, and
Patterson Imaging 15.0 and higher. For other custom applications,
code samples and documentation are available on the driver CD.
Optically clear sheaths are required for each new patient and provide
an effective measure for ensuring proper hygiene and protection
against infectiou s disease. Cleaning and disinfection information for
the USBcam4 handpiece and the holder can be found in Section 5,

1.4. Getting the Best Images with USBcam4
Getting the best results from your USBcam4 begins with having a
computer system suitable for displaying and capturing video images.
For optimum performance we recommend: (a) PCs equipped with
Pentium IV processors, (b) available USB 2.0 port, (c) minimum
8MB video memory, and (d) display values for your monitor set at
least to 1024 x 768 x 24-bit color. We also recommend using the
factory defaults for the USBcam4.1
IMPORTANT! USB bandwidth is shared among all USB devices.
Achieving optimum performance with the USBcam4 (30 frames-persecond video streams) may not be possible if other USB devices are
in use at the same time.
Image Optimization2 is a software feature that refers to the
automatic correction of distortion created by the lens barrel of the
camera. Whether image optimization is enabled or not depends on
the capabilities of the video card installed on your system. While
most new systems have video cards that will support image
optimization, some older systems may not.
For optimal system performance, we recommend the use of USB 2.0
cables with lengths not more than 5 meters (5.5 yards) and cable
gauge not less than 20 AWG for power conductors inside the cable
(“20AWG/2c” designation). Refer to Table 1 on page 11 for more
information.
