General information
NOTE
Faulty color analysis
The color analysis can be negatively impacted due to strong light
incidence and it can lead to varying results.
➢ Set the model CEREC Omnicam up so that it is not located
directly in the beam path of an extreme light source (e.g., the
treatment light) and not exposed to direct sunlight.
A color-calibrated Omnicam must be used for the color analysis.
The color analysis can only be carried out with a CEREC Omnicam
from a particular serial number. In order to test the CEREC Omnicam,
use the Omnicam test tool on
my.cerec.com -> CEREC SW 4.5 - > Shade Detection.
You can find the serial number of the Omnicam on the upper side on
the optics tube (see arrow E in the figure below).
This is only relevant for first generation cameras. For new systems, the
serial number of the Omnicam does not need to be determined.
1. Press the mirror sleeve (B) against the camera body.
2. Press detent (A).
NOTE
Risk of damaging the camera window (D) or the coated sapphire
glass (C).
➢ Push the mirror sleeve straight toward the front; do not tilt it.
3. Pull off the mirror sleeve.
In order to achieve optimum results, the CEREC Omnicam must be
allowed to warm up for 20 minutes before calibration. The CEREC
Omnicam must be color calibrated every two weeks in order to carry out
a reliable color analysis. You will achieve the best results if the CEREC
Omnicam is color calibrated immediately before scanning a new case.
