Service Tools

OpticalRevEng Dental offers a set of Service Tools, inside the Tools Menu, to recalibrate and diagnose any issue that might occur.

Recalibrate Head

This tool uses the Calibration Kit to carry out a new calibration of the Optical Head of the scanner. The procedure is the following:

1. Put the calibration kit inside the scanner in the correct position
2. Click Recalibrate Head in the Tools Menu
3. In the calibration dialog, select from the drop down menu the exact calibration kit name
4. Click Start

If the calibration kit name is not available in the drop down menu, the Load New Master Xml button can be used to add a new calibration kit from the appropriate Xml description file.

The calibration procedure is automatic. Once finished, the software will show one of the following messages:

• 'Scanner Already Calibrated' : the calibration is not necessary
• 'Scanner Recalibrated Successfully' : the calibration has been completed
• 'Scanner Recalibration Failed' : calibration has to be repeated

If the calibration was successful, the Axis Calibration starts automatically.

Recalibrate Axis

This tool is used to check the movement system of the scanner. The scanner will scan an object, analyze it, and use this data to calibrate the movement system.

When the Dynamic Articulation Moduleis enabled, calibrate the axis with the specific Axis Calibration Object. From that moment on, any recalibration needs to be performed with the same object. Otherwise, axis recalibration will fail.

1. Put the calibration object inside the scanner
2. Click Recalibrate Axis
3. Click Ok when prompted

The calibration procedure is automatic. Once it is finished, the software will show one of the following messages:

• 'Axis Recalibration Successfull' : the calibration has been completed
• 'Axis Recalibration Failed' : calibration has to be repeated

Auto Set-Up Multi-Die Parameters

This tool is used to calibrate the Multi-Die support. If the acquisitions carried out with the Multi-Die are not correctly recognized, the calibration procedure is the following:

1. Clean the multi-die from excessive material or white powder, every single die position needs to be clearly separated from the others
2. Put the empty multi-die support inside the scanner
3. Select the 'Auto Set-Up Multi-Die Parameters tool
4. Click Ok when prompted

Diagnostic Acquisition

When doubting the proper functioning of the scanner, this tool carries out a specific acquisition of the object currently inside the scanner, saves all the information in a "*.diag" file that can be sent to the OpticalRevEng Dental support to diagnose possible issues.
