1 Introduction
You have just received your OwandyCam intraoral imaging set. We thank you for the confidence you have
placed in us and hope that this product will provide you a complete satisfaction.
We advise you to read this manual carefully prior to installation. Observance of the use and installation
precautions in this document removes risks to the patient and for the care team. Please keep it with your
equipment so that you can refer to it later.
Your intraoral camera is a new generation of digital imaging equipment with USB2 connection. With its
ergonomic design and tailored shape, it enables you to obtain quickly and simply a perfect and clear image
of the endobuccal cavities of your patients. This equipment does not involve backup on a flash memory card,
so avoiding any loss of quality due to compression. Therefore, the USB2 connection enables images to be
transferred and integrated directly into your image processing software, without even relying on an external
power supply box or built-in battery.
1.1 Compliance with regulations
The OwandyCam unit is a class I medical system in accordance with European Directive 93/42/CEE relating
to EC branding. It is also a class I type BF system under the terms of regulation EN/IEC60601-1.
The OwandyCam is, therefore in compliance with that directive and that regulation, as also with regulation
EN/IEC60601-1-2 regarding electromagnetic compatibility.
Under certain conditions (see paragraph “1.3 Installation precautions”) is necessary for any other
components of the system connected (computer and optional peripherals) also to be in compliance with
regulation CEI950 (EN60950) and that the installation is in compliance with regulation EN/IEC60601-1.
1.2 Power supply
The power supply for the handpiece which lights the 6 LEDs is assured via the USB connection linking it to
the computer, i.e. by a 5V DC supply.
1.3 Installation precautions
The regulations require that your computer is at least in compliance with regulation CEI/EN60950-
1. If you have a Class 1 computer, see that its earth is connected to the building’s earth.
As the handpiece of the OwandyCam is located in the patient environment (less than 1.5 metres / 4.9 feet
from the patient), it is imperative that your computer complies with regulation EN/CEI60601-1, or that your
installation including the computer has been made compliant with regulation EN/CEI60601-1. When your
whole installation is in compliance with regulation EN/CEI60601-1, you can then connect the box to your
computer without further precautions being necessary.
If the computer is not located in the patient environment and is not in compliance with regulation
EN/CEI60601-1, it is imperative to insulate the handpiece from the patient by placing it in a non-conducting
envelope (hygienic covers).

5 Hygiene and maintenance
5.1 Hygiene and disinfection
5.1.1 Cable
The cable does not require any particular maintenance; it must be cleaned with a rag and non-abrasive
detergents.
5.1.2 Handpiece
In order to avoid any contamination between patients, it is imperative to use single-use biocompatible
hygienic covers (approved by the FDA for the USA, and marked CE for Europe). Hygienic covers suitable for
your country are delivered with each set.
To do this, insert the handpiece directly into the bag containing the hygienic cover (cf. 4.1 Installation
precautions).
After each use on a patient, the hygienic cover used must be disposed of with the dental practice’s other
biologically dangerous waste. Even with the use of these hygienic covers, the head of the camera must be
decontaminated at least once a day using wet wipes or cleaning products suitable for disinfecting non-
immersible devices. You can also use a non-fluffy rag lightly moistened with medical alcohol.
•The handpiece must not be immersed in a liquid solution or the device could
be destroyed: the degree of water resistance of the camera’s endoscope was not
designed for this purpose.
•As the handpiece is composed of an electronic card and plastic casings, it
must not be decontaminated by hot sterilisation or it may be destroyed.
Covers validated for North America: BANTA HEALTHCARE or TIDI PRODUCTS radiological sensor
covers and STERI-SHIELD PRODUCTS RS covers.
5.2 Maintenance
5.2.1 Handpiece and cable
Before each use, check that the lens is clean. If it is not, clean it with a moist non-fluffy rag or a special optical
paper.
Make sure not to use a dry tissue or rough paper to clean the lens: you will risk scratching it
irreversibly.
Periodically check the good condition of the connections between the USB cable and the female socket fixed
to the base of the handset. The connecting socket must not show any play in relation to the plastic joining
part.
Also check periodically the proper operation of the handpiece’s LEDs On/Off button, the working of the 6
white light LEDs, and the correct independent use of the 2 image capture buttons (the diametrically opposite
orange buttons).
5.2.2 Protection of computer data
Your patient and image databases must be subject to a regular backup in order to be able to recover them if
the need should arise (damage to hard disk or computer). Ask your computer retailer for advice as to the
most suitable backup system for your computer configuration (external or extractable disk, Zip or Jaz system,
CD-ROM or DVD writer, etc.). Test and store copies in a safe place.
