Understanding the Imaging Chain
2–2 Getting Started
Sensor
Sensor
The sensor is radio-sensitive. The active surface is the
flat surface marked with the Kodak logo. The marking
#0, #1 or #2 indicates the size of the sensor,
respectively size 0, 1, or 2. The back of the sensor,
non-reactive to x-rays, is rounded and contains the
cable attachment.
Remote Control
The use of your sensor depends on the kit ordered:
• Size 1, universal, sensor—Use for regular
periapical and retro-coronary procedures.
• Size 2 sensor—Use for bitewings and peri-apical
procedures.
• Size 0 sensor—Use for pediatric intraoral exams.
The Size 0 sensor requires less x-ray doses and has
a very small size to fit in a child’s mouth.
Remote Control
The remote control contains all the electronics of the
sensor. The button on the remote control activates, at a
distance, the acquisition in the Kodak dental imaging
software. See “Preparing the Software” on page 2–10.
