Start

The Start Screen is the first dialog that appears when launching the software.

There are two different kinds of start screen. One will appear when the software is launched directly by the user, the other when the software is launched by another software, having already defined a project.

In both cases, the software will perform a System Check and show a message. If everything is ready to work and the scanner is correctly connected, the screen will show the sentence Scanner initialized correctly. If, for any reason, the scanner is not correctly working, a specific error message will be displayed.

In both Start Screens, this button Dental 2 5 actionOptions.png opens the Options Dialog.

Project Ready Start-Up

This is the Start Screen that appears when the software is launched having already set a project in an Invoking Software, for example if started from the Exocad DentalDB.

On the left, some Advenced Import Options are available:

  • Unsectioned Model : enable this option if the model to be scanned is not sectioned, the scanner will not require a separate scan for every die
  • Impression Scan : if the Impression Scan Module is enabled in the license, check this option to scan an impression and not a stone model
  • Face Scan : if a Real Time Scanner is available, check the Face Scan option to add the Real Time Face Scan of the patient to the project

On the right, there are 2 buttons:

This is the Start Screen that appears when launching the software directly

In this case, no project is ready so the software will ask to create a new project or to load a previously created project.
