2.2. Software
In normal use the CDR software provides the interface and control between the Wireless
System hardware and the computer. It provides the user with advanced features for
display, manipulation, storage, and printing of acquired X-ray images. Please refer to the
CDR software User Guide for more details.
Functions specific to the Wireless System have been added to CDR software to provide
configuration, monitoring, and diagnosis of system components.
The Wireless Monitor, located in the Windows ® System Tray, provides real-time
reporting of the Wireless Sensor and shows the current status of several elements
required for proper operation (
Figure 6
). The Wireless Monitor is especially useful when
positioning the Base Station with respect to the Sensor (
Section 3)
.

The Wireless Tools utility (wstools.exe), accessible by either desktop shortcut or by name
under the program group for CDR Wireless Sensor software, is intended to identify,
diagnose, and resolve configuration and communication issues in or between the Sensor
and Receiver. The selection screen for the Wireless Utility is shown in
Figure 7

In the event of partial image corruption due to RF interference, CDR software will
identify those areas on the displayed image so that the dental professional can evaluate
whether another exposure is required.
