CDRPanX User Guide 

the workstation are virus-free and have been adequately  tested so they  will not  impact 
imaging applications after installation. 

Please refer to documentation provided by the PC manufacturer for important 
information about its safe operation and usage. 

Use Only Dedicated Host Computer(s) for Imaging Application(s)  

The host computer should be dedicated to imaging and not for general computing use. 
Also, prior to installing any software on dedicated workstation(s) and / or server(s), 
ensure that such software is virus-free and will not impact the operation and performance 
of imaging applications after installation. 

Do Not Touch Exposed Connectors on Non-Medical Equipment and the 
Patient at the Same Time  

When the CDRPanX product is in use, avoid touching exposed connectors on non-
medical electrical equipment and the patient at the same time. The human body is capable 
of conducting electrical current and may cause a shock hazard to patients if appropriate 
safety practices are not observed. 

Only Dentists or Authorized Designees Are Permitted to Operate the 
System  

To ensure the correct use of CDRPanX in a clinical environment, for purposes that 
correspond to its intended design and application, only dentists, or their designees, are 
authorized to operate the system. 

Use Only Manufacturer-Specified Parts and Accessories for Replacement 

Using accessories, transducers, and cables, other than those specified by the Schick 
Technologies as appropriate replacement parts for internal components, may result in 
increased emissions or decreased immunity of the CDRPanX system. 

The following cable configurations have been specified for the CDRPanX system.
