If you are working with a digital radiographic system (e.g.
SIDEXIS), the Digital mode indicator lamp (6) on the
unit must be lit up.

You can switch back and forth between the conventional
and the digital radiographic technique by briefly holding
down the D button. The resulting reduction in the exposure time will then be displayed.
Use an X-ray field limitation for the digital radiographic
technique.
i
NOTE
To set the recommended exposure times for adults, always set the patient symbol to the highest exposure level
within the relevant tooth symbol.
If you are working with children, always set to the lowest
exposure level within the relevant tooth symbol!
Conventional
If you want to take conventional (film) exposures, the
Digital mode indicator (6) must not be lit up.
You can switch back and forth between the conventional
and digital radiographic technique by briefly pressing the
D button. The Digital mode indicator (6) then switches
off.
The exposure time for conventional exposures is then
displayed.

manually increasing the exposure time 1 - 2 steps.

Sirona Dental Systems GmbH 14 Inspection and maintenance
Operating Instructions HELIODENT DS 14.1 Annual inspection performed by the operator or other authorized personnel
14 Inspection and maintenance
Inspection and maintenance work must be performed at
regular intervals to protect the safety and health of
patients, users and third parties.
14.1 Annual inspection performed by the operator or other authorized personnel
As the operator, you should ensure the safety and reliability of your system by performing maintenance on it at
regular intervals (at least once annually) or having this
work performed by your dental dealership.
The information in the document ’Inspection and main-
tenance’ supplied will be of help to you here.
14.2 Maintenance performed by the service technician
In addition to the scheduled annual inspection by the
user or persons contracted to perform this, a maintenance inspection must be performed after 4, 7 10 and
then every two years.
bеЦдблЬ
14.3 Checking image quality
The information in the document ’Inspection and maintenance’ supplied will be of help to the service techni-
cian here.
At regular intervals, however at least once a year, the
user must evaluate the image quality.
With the use of digital image receptors, the increase in
image post-processing effort making use of the brightness or contrast control (e.g. for SIDEXIS) can be taken
as an evaluation criterion.
For X-rays requiring developing of films, an increase in
the exposure time serves as the evaluation criterion.
If these evaluation criteria are fulfilled independently of
the patient anatomy and of possible sources of error,
such as developing of film or patient positioning, contact
a service technician immediately in order to eliminate
possible unit faults.
In addition it is necessary to observe country-specific
requirements.
Furthermore, we would like to call your attention to the
brochures of film manufacturers and also to our Quality
Image Service. For this, please contact your dental
dealer or the manufacturer directly.
