6 Installation of the imaging plate system
42 KaVo Scan eXam One
If the X-ray images are being captured and images
scanned in a single location only (X-ray room or
single user environments) it is most convenient to
place the scanner unit near to the X-ray.
NOTICE! Always position the unit so that you can
easily detach the power supply (PSU) from supply
mains.
6.2 Connecting the unit to a network
The unit can be connected directly to a single
workstation or several workstation using a wired
local area network (LAN). It is recommended to use
a LAN in all installations. Also any workstation used
for managing an image capture should be
connected to a wired LAN.
It is recommended to have an internet connection
from the LAN. This makes registering potential
software license easier.
Connect the Ethernet cable from the unit to the
local area networking unit (router/switch). Consult
a computer network specialist to build up a local
area network if needed.
The unit can obtain an IP address automatically
(DHCP) or it can be set manually (static IP).
The unit will show its IP number during the boot up
sequence when powered on.
