3. Close Gate, making sure the magnet is secured in its locked
position.
4. Use the Patient ALIGN buttons on the Patient
Alignment Panel to adjust the Patient Chair
height. These controls allow movement of the
Patient chair, up (Δ) and down (∇), to facilitate
Patient alignment with the Chin Rest. When
properly aligned, the Patient’s chin is able to sit
on the Chin Cup at the appropriate tilt (see
illustration below).
5. Ensure the tilt of the Patient is such that the
Occlusal Plane is Flat, which means Frankfort
Horizontal is tilted up by about 5 degrees (see
illustration below).
Laser beams can cause optical damage. Close eyes
when the laser beam is in use. Instruct the Patient to
close eyes to avoid looking into the beam. The use of
optical instruments such as eyeglasses with large
diopter or mirrors, increase eye hazard with this
product.
6. Alignment Light: In general, the Alignment
Light shall be positioned at the horizontal
Occlusal Plane.
• Full Head Scan: The Horizontal light should be at the
Occlusal Plane between the lips (smile line).
• Clearance: Make sure that the sensor side of the turret has
enough clearance as to NOT brush the Patient’s shoulders
as it rotates. This may cause movement.
The horizontal Alignment Light may vary slightly depending on the
Patient position according to the selected height of scan desired,
refer to taking a Preview, in the next paragraph, to ensure that the
target area of interest is in the image.
