One-Click Connection Tag Functional Overview
The One-Click connection tag is an RFID label (radio-frequency identification) that stores the WiFi
access point SSID and the workstation identity information.
When you place the RVG 6500 control box on a One-Click connection tag, the RVG 6500 control box
scans and reads information stored in the One-Click connection tag.
This information enables the acquired image to appear where it is desired.
You can also create a One-Click connection tag for an iPad.

Imaging Software Overview
General Software Overview
The RVG 6500 intraoral imaging system operates either on a workstation or an iPad with the following
software:
•
KDIS for workstations, which includes the RVG Acquisition interface and the FMS
Acquisition interface
•
RVG Mobile Application for iPad
See “RVG Mobile Application” on page 49 for iPad-related information.
Minimum Workstation System Requirements
See the RVG 6500 System Safety, Regulatory and Technical Specifications User Guide (SM780)
Ed01 for the minimum workstation system requirements for RVG 6500 intraoral imaging system
software. If necessary you must update your workstation system configuration.
The workstation and its screen should ideally be situated in, or close, to the operating area, in the visual
field of the practitioner when he is with the patient. The visual access of the acquired image for the
patient encourages communication.
The RVG 6500 system must run on a workstation with a keyboard.
The RVG 6500 system must run on a workstation with a two-button mouse equipped with a mouse
wheel.
Important: You MUST check that the workstation system
configuration is compatible with the workstation system
requirements for the imaging software.
Important: The screen with the correct technical display
characteristics for visualization of radiological images avoids any
diagnostic error.

Setting Up the RVG 6500 System
Recommended Configuration
Important: The recommended installation configuration is one
access point wired to each workstation to ensure robust operation
and optimized transfer times.
A wireless connection between one access point and several workstations is not recommended.
Although it is feasible, it jeopardizes the transfer time and robustness of operations.

Choice of Access Point Configurations
Each workstation is equipped with an access point. There are two possible access point
configurations:
Wired access point
(recommended)
The access point is physically connected to the chosen workstation using
an ethernet cable and USB/ethernet adapter cable.
Wireless access point
(feasible but not
recommended)
The access point communicates wirelessly with several workstations.
You must choose the RVG 6500 system configuration before starting the WiFi setup. Once you have
decided you are guided by the setup software (see “Configuring the Wireless System” on page 27). In
all cases the communication between the sensor and the access point is wireless.
Access Point Wired Configuration (Recommended)
The recommended configuration is to have a wired access point. In this configuration, the access
point is connected to a single workstation using the ethernet cable and USB/ethernet adapter
provided. Several sensors can be connected to the same access point and workstation.
If the sensors are to be used on several workstations, each workstation must be connected to a wired
access point using the ethernet cable and USB/ethernet adapter provided.
The transmission range between the access point and the RVG 6500 sensor is up to 10 meters in an
open space with no walls to obstruct the signal.
Note: This is the most stable configuration providing the best
performance for multiple-chair, multiple-workstation use.

Access Point Wireless Configuration (NOT Recommended)
You can choose a wireless access point configuration but this is not recommended. In this
configuration, the workstation is connected to the access point wirelessly. In this configuration, several
workstations can be connected to the same access point and several sensors can be shared between
several workstations and chairs.
For optimal access point wireless setup, follow these recommendations:
•
•
•
•
•
Place the access point in a visible and high location (not on the floor).
Place the access point in a central location for a multiple access point transmission.
Avoid any barriers along the line of transmission, for example, reinforced walls and doors,
cabinets, and metal file cabinets.
Install the access point at 1 meter distance from other appliances transmitting the same
frequency range.
Install the access point away from electrical equipment that also generates interferences.
In this configuration, the transmission range between access point and the:

One-Click Connection Tag Locations
The One-Click connection tag is an RFID label (radio-frequency identification) that stores the WiFi
access point SSID and the workstation identity information. When you place the RVG 6500 control
box on a One-Click connection tag, the RVG 6500 control box scans and reads information stored in
the One-Click connection tag. This information enables the acquired image to appear where it is
desired. You can also create a One-Click connection tag for an iPad.
Important: Do NOT stick the One-Click connection tag on a metallic
surface.
Important: You must place the RVG 6500 control box on the
One-Click connection tag to scan and read the data.
You must locate the One-Click connection tag(s) in the patient environment, for example, at the
entrance
A
of the exam room, close to the workstation
B
or the X-ray generator C .
Tip: We recommend that you place the One-Click connection tag(s) on a
horizontal, flat, non-metallic surface for best results.

Maintenance
This chapter describes the maintenance task that you need to perform regularly for your RVG 6500
and the accessories.
RVG 6500 Sensor
Single-use disposable protective hygienic sleeves must cover the RVG 6500 sensor before placing it
in the patient’s mouth.
To prevent cross-contamination, use a new hygienic barrier for each new patient and disinfect the RVG
6500 sensor.
Cleaning and Disinfecting the RVG 6500 Sensor
WARNING: Never place the sensor and/or remote control in an
autoclave as this could result in serious damage to the sensor.
You must first clean the RVG 6500 sensor before disinfecting it. To do so, follow these steps:
1
Remove the protective hygienic sleeves.
WARNING: Do NOT pull the sensor by its cable when you remove the
protective hygienic sleeves.
2
Remove debris or organic matter from the sensor surfaces with a disposable wipe or surface
brush.
3
Inspect the sensor for debris. Repeat cleaning if there is any debris left.
WARNING: You must first clean the RVG 6500 sensor before
disinfecting it.
4
Disinfect with disinfecting wipes or a solution with intermediate-level hospital disinfectant with
label claims of tuberculocidal activity (for example: a chlorine containing product, a quaternary
ammonium compound with alcohol, a phenolics, an iodophors, an EPA-registered chlorine-base
product).
WARNING: You must use the disinfectant according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
RVG 6500 System User & Installation Guide (SM778) Ed01 79
Cleaning the Cable and Sensor Remote Control
WARNING: Never immerse the RVG 6500 sensor remote control in any
solution.
The cable and sensor remote control must be cleaned with disposable disinfecting wipes with
intermediate-level hospital disinfectant with label claims of tuberculocidal activity.
WARNING: Clean all parts carefully using a disinfecting wipe.
Maintaining the Life of the Sensor
To maintain the life of the sensor, do the following:
•
Do not place the sensor in a sterilizer or autoclave.
•
Do not pull on the cable, even when removing the disposable protective sheath.
•
Do not walk on or roll objects over the cable.
•
Do not request the patient to bite on the sensor or the cable.
•
Do not disconnect the sensor during the 90-second delay, in non-synchronized mode, or
during acquisition.
•
Do not force, bend, or pull the sensor cable.
•
Do not immerse the sensor remote control.

When the sensor is not connected, store it in its case.
•
Never touch the monitor’s screen and the sensor simultaneously. This can result in serious
damage to the sensor.
•
Never touch the contact points of the USB connector of the sensor.
