Safety Issues
Electrical Concerns
CDRPan conforms to national (U.S.) and international standards for electromagnetic
compatibility and electrical safety. A complete list of specifications can be found in the
CDRPan User’s Guide.
Mechanical Considerations
The sensor package, the remote module, and the cables of the CDRPan system are
mounted outside of the patient area to ensure patient safety and reliable equipment
operation.
Radiation Concerns
No adjustments or alterations are made to the X-ray source of the panoramic equipment.

1. Introduction
1.1 Welcome
The CDR Panoramic X-ray System (“CDRPan”) is an electronic imaging system that
integrates with panoramic machines to acquire, display, store and print digital X-rays.
Because of its digital format, the X-ray can be enhanced for more detail using CDR tools,
and it can be archived for patient histories and retrieved for comparisons.
1.2 CDRPan System
The CDRPan system hardware consists of the following components (unless otherwise
indicated, all part numbers (P/Ns) refer to Schick Technologies numbers):
•CDRPan kit for Panoramic Corp. PC-1000 (P/N B4770050), which includes
the sensor, codestrip, other attaching parts, and accessories
•Remote module (P/N B4750100)
•Power supply (P/N A3302300)
•PCI board (P/N B3301100) and cable (B2211001).
The CDRPan system requires the following software:
•CDR software (version 2.1 or higher)
•CDRPan software, which includes the PCI board device driver and the series
set to be used with panoramic exams
1.3 Overview for Installing CDRPan
This Installation Manual is one of two documents you will need to install the CDRPan
system completely. After performing the installation procedure in this document, you
should refer to the CDRPan User’s Guide (P/N B1051008) to install the software for the
CDRPan system. Procedures for installing CDRPan system hardware and software can be
found in the following documents.

1.4 Before You Start Installing CDRPan
Prior to installing CDRPan on your panoramic system, please perform the following
checks.
Make sure your panoramic system is operating properly.
Familiarize yourself with the installation steps before performing them.
Determine the location of your computer. This will be useful when you install the
Remote Module and need to run cables between it and your computer.

3. Sensor and Codestrip
3.1 Install Sensor Assembly and Sensor Clip
A. Rotate the drum away from the faceplate aperture.
B. Carefully slide the sensor assembly into the aperture until the upper guide is seated
firmly at the top of the aperture slit and the lower guide fits in bottom of aperture.
C. Install the sensor clip at the bottom of the faceplate.

D. When the sensor clip is positioned, verify the sensor assembly is located correctly,
with the motion encoder facing towards the drum. Secure the clip in place using a
Phillips screwdriver to tighten 2 screws.

3.2 Route Sensor Cable
A. Use cable clamp to secure sensor cable inside the faceplate. Continue attaching
clamps and holders to feed cable along contours of the panoramic machine.
B. Route cable to the top of the panoramic machine, following the edge nearest the
control panel.

3.3 Check Sensor Cable Run
Swivel the arm of the panoramic machine to ensure there is enough slack in the cable for
the rotation arm to move freely. Adjust cable if necessary.

PC-1000 Installation B1051101 Rev. – 11
3.4 Prepare to Install Codestrip
A. Sight the encoder from the edge of the faceplate, and then mark that spot using a fine-
point marker or pen.
B. Rotate the drum, marking a straight line around it. This line will be used for aligning
and mounting the codestrip.

3.5 Install Codestrip
A. Position the codestrip along the guideline drawn in the step above.
B. Remove protective layer from mounting tape and apply the codestrip with adhesive
side towards drum. Ensure there are NO kinks or bubbles when the codestrip is
applied. Installing the codestrip unevenly or without optimal contact with the
faceplate may cause motion artifacts in images.

PC-1000 Installation B1051101 Rev. – 13
3.6 Clearance Adjustments
A. Adjust the encoder section of the sensor assembly to approximately 1 mm from the
codestrip on the drum. Use the Allen key (3/32 in.) to tighten the hinge links on the
encoder.
B. With X-ray source off, move the rotating arm of the panoramic machine to verify that
the sensor cable does not kink, bind, or pull out of clips when the rotating arm is in
motion.
C. Proceed to Chapter 4 to continue with CDRPan installation.

4. Remote Module, Power Supply, and PCI Board
4.1 Install Remote Module
4.1.1 Tools and Materials
To install the remote module, you will need velcro patches to secure the module to the
top of the panoramic machine, and a screwdriver to secure the sensor cable connector to
the remote module.
4.1.2 Step-by-Step Instructions
NOTE: Before applying velcro patches, clean the
surface area to ensure good adhesion.
A. Apply velcro to the top of the panoramic machine, along the top edge of the rotational
arm. This will make it easy to see the status lights on the module.
B. Apply velcro to the bottom of the remote module also, and mount the remote module
to the panoramic machine.
C. Connect the sensor cable to the remote module. Then, use a small screwdriver to
tighten the screws on the 37-pin connector.

datacable) will be connected after the power supply and the PCI board installation
procedures are performed.
4.2 Install Power Supply
4.2.1 Tools and Materials
To install the power supply, you will need cable holders and clamps (P/N B4700140) to
secure the cable along the side of the panoramic machine and up to the remote module.
4.2.2 Step-by-Step Instructions
NOTE: Verify that the power supply voltage selector is
set correctly for the power requirements in your area.
A. Position power supply at base of panoramic machine.
B. Route connector cable to the remote module at the top of the panoramic machine.
