3.5. PRECAUTIONS FOR THE USB PORT
Most current motherboards are equipped with two USB channels. Each channel has two USB ports to which various peripherals can
be connected.
!
CAUTION:
It is advisable to dedicate a High Speed USB channel to the digital X-ray system. This will ensure that the performance and the
transmission speed of the SOPIX series system data will not be affected by the fact that another peripheral is on the same channel.
3.6. ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE
Electromagnetic compatibility (CEM) is the ability of electronic device elements to correctly interact in an electronic environment.
Although the SOPIX series systems were designed with due regard to this compatibility and comply with the electromagnetic
interference thresholds established by the regulatory agency, there is no guarantee about the interference likely to occur on a
particular installation.
If a SOPIX series system generates interference with radio-communication services (which can be determined by switching it off and
on), the user is recommended to try to correct this phenomenon by taking some or all of the following measures:
• Change the direction of the receiving antenna.
• Reposition the product in relation to the receiver.
• Distance the computer from the receiver.
The SOPIX series digital X-ray systems were designed and tested to be used in a domestic environment, class B Group 1, according
to CISPR11 standard.
3.7. ELECTROSTATIC INTERFERENCE
A strong electrostatic discharge may logically disconnect a SOPIX series system from the computer’s USB (Universal Serial
Bus) port. In most cases, the SOPIX series system recovers by itself. Thereafter, it is wise to:
• Set up the sensor sleeve before putting the SOPIX series system in readiness for image acquisition,
• Dissipate your static charge by touching, for example, a metallic part of the dental chair before taking an X-ray image.
