Sirona Dental Systems GmbH1 W arning and safety information
Connector pins or sockets bearing ESD warning labels
must not be touched or interconnected without ESD protective measures.
ESD protective measures include:
•Procedures for preventing electrostatic charge
build-up (e.g. air conditioning, air moistening, conductive floor coverings and non-synthetic clothing)
•Discharging the electrostatic charges of your own
body on the frame of the unit, the protective ground
wire or large metallic objects
•Connecting yourself to ground using a wrist band.
We therefore recommend that all persons working with
this system be instructed on the significance of this
warning label. Furthermore, they also should receive
training in the physics of electrostatic discharges which
can occur in the practice and the destruction of electronic components which may result if such components
are touched by electrostatically charged
The content of this training is explained in Chapter 1.3.

1.3 About the physics of electrostatic charges Operating Instructions GALILEOS
1.3About the physics of electrostatic charges
ESD stands for ElectroStatic Discharge. Electrostatic
discharge must be preceded by electrostatic charging.
Static electric charges generally build up whenever two
bodies are rubbed against each other, e.g. when walking
(shoe soles against the floor) or driving a vehicle (tires
against the street pavement). The amount of charge
depends on several factors:
Thus the charge is higher in an environment with low air
humidity than in one with high air humidity; it is also
higher with synthetic materials than with natural materials (clothing, floor coverings).
The following rule of thumb can be applied to assess the
transient voltages resulting from an electrostatic discharge.
An electrostatic discharge is:
•perceptible at 3,000 V or higher
•audible at 5,000 V or higher (cracking, crackling)
•visible at 10,000 V or higher (arc-over)
The transient currents resulting from these discharges
have a magnitude of 10 amperes. They are not hazardous for humans because they last for only several nanoseconds.
Voltage differentials exceeding 30,000 volts per centimeter may lead to a charge transfer (electrostatic discharge, lightning, arc-over).
Integrated circuits (logical circuits and microprocessors)
are used in order to implement a wide variety of functions in dental/X-ray/CEREC systems. The circuits must
be miniaturized to a very high degree in order to include
as many functions as possible on these chips. This leads
to structure thicknesses as low as a few ten thousandths
of a millimeter.
It is obvious that integrated circuits which are connected
to plugs leading outside of the unit via cables are sensitive to electrostatic discharge. Even voltages which are
imperceptible to the user can cause breakdown of the
structures, thus leading to a discharge current which
melts the chip in the affected areas. Damage to individual integrated circuits may cause malfunction or failure
of the system.
To prevent this from happening, the ESD warning label
next to the plug warns of this hazard.

Compared to the standard settings, the high contrast
setting VO1 HC is offers an improved display of hard
structures such as bones and teeth.
•The settings may result in an inferior display of the
soft tissue, especially in terms of the soft tissue silhouette.
The high contrast option is particularly suitable for the
evaluation of bone and tooth structures, e.g. after bone
augmentations, when the correct display of the soft tissue silhouette is negligible.
Additionally, the feature is particularly useful for the
DICOM export function to other implant planning programs (such as Nobel Guide or Simplant).

If the VO1 HC program is used for a DICOM export to a
third-party implant planning software, always choose the
setting value 42 mAs for optimal results.
Indication: for all exposures for which no detailed reconstruction is planned. E.g. implant planning, overview
exposures and postoperative control exposures.
This program is used to create a volume data set of the

•Align the occlusal plane (S) of the patient's head parallel to the marking line (R) via fine adjustment of the
"up" and "down" keys.
The height of the X-ray unit must be set so that the occlusal plane is perfectly horizontal following alignment.
•The correct position for the indication can be set by
laterally fixing the position with the volume control
and using the vertical and horizontal adjustment options.
The inner side (T) of the volume control should be regarded as the volume boundary.
Example 1: The patient's nose and the point of his chin
are within the volume, e.g. for optimal display of the silhouette of a Ceph exposure.
Example 2: The horizontal adjustability makes it possible
to push the rear of the skull region (e.g. the temporomandibular joints) further into the volume. The tip of the
patient's nose and the point of his chin are pushed out of
the 3D volume in return.
•Finally, immobilize the patient's head by pushing the
two pins (B) toward his forehead until the forehead
rest (A) snugly fits against his head. Select the most
suitable forehead pad, i.e. M or N.

use remote control to release the exposure.
For that purpose, the exposure release button (5) can
be detached from the unit and attached to the remote
control.
The exposure release button (A) can be used if a
longer cable is not required to maintain visual contact
with the patient.
The remote control has an “R” key (18) for acknowledging the exposure and resetting the unit to its starting
position, an optical radiation indicator (15) and a "Unit ON" LED display (16).
After you switch on the system, the LED (16) lights up.
The radiation indicator (15) lights up for a longer period
of time for a function test.
The three display fields on the display panel (B) light up.
A progress bar appears after approx. 10 seconds. After
the system starts, the display switches to program VO1
with the corresponding values.
As long as plain-text help messages are displayed on
the Easypad touchscreen, they also appear in coded
form on the "Prog." display field of the remote control, alternating with the program name.
Once all help messages have been processed, the pro-gram name “Prog.”, the “kV” and the “mAs” values are
constantly displayed on the display panel (B).
The exposure can be released.
If a row of dots ........ appears in the Prog. field, this
means that the system is currently in a preparatory
phase (e.g. system movements, parameter changes,
program loading times etc.). Just wait until the dots automatically disappear and the system signals that it is
ready again.

If the system is set to readiness for exposure during that
time, error message E1 10 07 will display.
Solution
Acknowledge the error message with the (R) key and
wait until the message "Sensor preparation in progress"
is deactivated.
Decreasing the waiting time
Switching the unit on and off will not decrease the waiting
time!
Case 2
If the error message E1 10 07 is displayed immediately
after turning on the device without the user having established exposure readiness, please inform the responsible service engineer.

9 Inspection and maintenance Sirona Dental Systems GmbH
Operating Instructions GALILEOS
9 Inspection and maintenance
Inspection and preventive maintenance must be performed at scheduled intervals to protect the health and
safety of patients, users and other persons.
9.1Annual check performed by the system owner or other
authorized persons
In order to ensure the operational safety and functional
reliability of your product, you as the system owner must
check the equipment at regular intervals (at least once a
year) or commission your dental depot to do so.
9.2Maintenance by the service engineer
9.3Image quality check
In addition to the annual check to be carried out by the
system owner or authorized persons, preventive maintenance must be performed after 4, 7 and 10 years, and
then at two-year intervals.
The image quality should be assessed by the system
owner at regular intervals, at least once a year.
On digital image receptor systems, the degree of postprocessing (brightness or contrast adjustment) that is
required in the image processing software (e.g.
SIDEXIS) to produce satisfactory results is used as an
assessment criterion.
If, after taking into account the patient’s anatomy and
excluding possible sources of error such as incorrect
patient positioning, this criterion can be regarded as
given, you should immediately contact your Customer
Service to have possible system faults rectified.
Observe any possible additional national requirements.
