Introduction

This document provides the instructions necessary to set up the software used to operate

the Provecta S-Pan and the Provecta S-Pan Ceph X-ray units. The Provecta S-Pan and the

Provecta S-Pan Ceph are hereafter referred to as Provecta S-Pan throughout this document.

Review and follow the instructions to ensure that the Provecta S-Pan gives the highest level

of service.

The user must be logged on as the local Administrator to perform the installation, conguration and

calibration procedures provided in this guide. Once setup, any user can acquire images. Contact

the oce network administrator as necessary.

Important A PCI Express slot is necessary to install the Gigabit Ethernet card.

This ethernet card adds a separate second network connection

used only for Provecta. The original adapter card still provides the

connection to the office network. Perform the procedures provided

by section 3.3, Configure the Network Adapter, to install the Gigabit

Ethernet card and setup and test the Provecta S-Pan network.

Pre-Installation Check

Perform the following checks to verify that the computer system and associated monitor requirements

meet or exceed the requirements needed to operate Provecta.

1. Refer to section 1 and make sure that the computer system being used has the

requirements necessary to operate Provecta.

2. Check or set the monitor resolution using the procedure provided by section 2 for the

Windows operating system in use.

Device Setup

Perform the following to setup and congure Provecta S-Pan to operate as a TWAIN device. Install

the VistaEasy software by selecting it from the DBSWIN setup program menu. This allows full device

functional operation via the TWAIN interface and the third party imaging management application.

1. Refer to section 3 (procedure 3.1) for initial computer/device setup and install the

VistaEasy application provided on the DBSWIN disk included with each device.

Note: VistaEasy must be installed before running the Driver Setup

program from the start button. See section 3, VistaEasy

installation.

2. Refer to section 3 (procedure 3.2) and perform Device Setup (installed as part of

VistaEasy) to register the device in VistaConfig.

3. Refer to section 3 (procedure 3.3) and activate VistaEasy View (installed as part of

VistaEasy). This program is required by various third party image applications to

allow the acquisition of multiple images.

4. Refer to section 4 and perform the procedure for integration via the TWAIN

interface with the authorized third party imaging management applications listed.

Disclaimers

The procedures provided in this document are limited to the specific revision or

version of the third party imaging management software listed.

If problems occur due to changes of the application revision or version, then refer

to the latest revision of this document located at www.airtechniques.com.

COMPUTER SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

1. Computer System Requirements. Provecta S-Pan is designed to operate using appro-

priate and compliant computer hardware and software where VistaEasy or an authorized

third-party imaging program is installed to operate the unit. Smooth operation of the

Provecta S-Pan hardware and software can be aected through specic hardware and

software incompatibility on site at the client despite meeting system requirements. Where

further systems are connected to the PC please note that this may change the system

requirements. Observe the system requirements for all connected systems.

Minimum computer system requirements necessary to operate Provecta S-Pan are found

in the latest version of the Operating Instructions manual for the installed unit. Refer to

the Computer System Requirements section of the associated manual. The part num-

ber of the manual for Provecta S-Pan is A7370, while part number A7515 covers the

Provecta S-Pan Ceph. The manuals are located on our web site, www.airtechniques.com,

for availabity to revisions or versions change.
