XIOS Intraoral Sensors only run with Sidexis Software Version 2.2 or higher. If older versions of
Sidexis Imaging Software are installed in the practice, Sidexis Software needs to be updated to
Version 2.2 or higher before installing the XIOS Intraoral Sensor System.

2. Installing XIOS Software (USB Driver)
NEVER plug in any hardware before installing the XIOS software.
2.1 Use the XIOS Software CD 2.23 to install the XIOS USB driver. CD should autorun, if not
double-click on the autorun.bat file to start CD and follow the instructions.

start.
Pop-up will show up VERY shortly on the bottom right: “Sensor calibration successful”

downloaded through SIDEXIS Manager\XIOS Sensor download: Enter SN – select download
location.
4. Connecting XIOS USB module

are directly soldered to the board, while the front one use internal cables which might introduce
problems

Under System Properties\Hardware\Device Manager\USB Root Hubs – make sure to uncheck
all boxes under Power Management. All hubs need to be unchecked separately.
