USER ACCOUNT RECOMMENDATIONS
2 Planmeca Romexis Installation & configuration manual
3 USER ACCOUNT RECOMMENDATIONS
Required User Account during the installation is Administrator.
NOTE On Windows 7 and Windows 8 operating systems the UAC level must be less than 2.
The User Account which starts Planmeca Romexis Service on a 64-bit Operating System must
have a valid password set (not null).
4 NETWORK RECOMMENDATIONS
The server client communication is based on Java RMI over TCP/IP, thus support for TCP/IP
protocol is required. Network bandwidth requirements are dominated by digital imaging
requirements. The retrieval of a digital 2D image for viewing requires a transfer of roughly 1 MB
of data over the network, while opening a 3D volume for viewing will require a transfer of 250 MB
of data, which thus creates a major load on the network and of course this transfer time
dominates the user observable system performance. Planmeca recommends that for 3D capture
and viewing a gigabit Ethernet should be utilized where possible.
NOTE Since the Java RMi protocol relies on multiple simultaneous TCP/IP connections at
random ports, RomexisService.exe needs to be allowed full access to all ports above and
including port 1024. Please refer to your fire wall user guide on how to best achieve this. If
a fire wall is not used in the Planmeca Romexis intranet this requirement can be ignored.

CLINIC MANAGEMENT
15 CLINIC MANAGEMENT
When the PlanLink Agent Service is active on the chair side PC all dental unit information is
automatically collected and stored into the central database in real time. The information
collected can be immediately reviewed from any workstation on the network.
15.1 PlanLink - Compact Unit Lock
Use these settings to specify whether the dental unit should be automatically locked when
PlanLink Agent exits (when shutting down the PC). For more information on how to control dental
unit locking settings see Planmeca dental unit manuals.
NOTE The error, chair and instrument use and instrument flushes are not recorder if PlanLink
Agent is not running.
Dont Lock Units
When this option is selected the units always remain unlocked, even when the PC is shut down
and PlanLink Agent is not running.
Lock Units on Chair-side PC Shutdown (PlanLink Agent)
The dental unit is automatically locked when PlanLink Agent is shut down. Use Compact i
service modes to configure how to open the lock if necessary.
CLINIC MANAGEMENT
15.2 Save Diagnostic Events to Database
Use these settings to specify whether to save the diagnostic events to the database or not. The
options are:
Save all errors, cleaning operations and helpcodes
Save all errors and cleaning operations
Dont save anything
15.3 E-Mail notifications
Notification period
If the unit has an error condition which is not negated in the time period set (default 5 minutes),
Planmeca Romexis Server sends an e-mail to all listeners assigned to listen to errors with that
error code.
The server can also be configured so that it does not send an e-mail with the same error code for
a certain time interval (default 60 minutes).

CONFIGURING PLANMECA ROMEXIS CLINIC MANAGEMENT MODULE
16 CONFIGURING PLANMECA ROMEXIS CLINIC
MANAGEMENT MODULE
To be compatible with Planmeca Romexis Clinic management module, the dental unit must be
PlanLink-enabled and appropriate cabling to chair side PC is required.
The following figure illustrates the dental unit PC connection.
Each dental unit is connected to a chair side PC serial COM port with a Planmeca Planet cable.
PlanLink Agent Service must be running on each PC connected to a dental unit to record data
during use. The PlanLink Agent Service listens to activities on the dental unit and relays them to
Planmeca Romexis Server for storage into database for later reference. PlanLink Agent also
manages saving and restoring of dental unit settings to and from the unit to database. Therefore,
to ensure that a full log of use and hygiene procedures is collected, it is important that the
chairside PC is on and PlanLink Agent is running at all times when the dental unit is operated.
Planmeca Romexis Clinic Management Module is a desktop application that is used to view data
stored into Planmeca Romexis database. When a dental unit is accessed in Planmeca Romexis
Clinic Management Module, a connection to the PlanLink Agent Service in the adjacent chairside
PC is formed and any commands to the dental unit are relayed via the PlanLink Agent.
16.1 Configuring Clinic Layout
To configure the clinic layout go to Clinic view.
Click the Configure Layout button at the bottom of the screen. When in configuration mode,
each operatory is shown as a black rectangle that can contain a PC and a dental unit.
The control panel contains items for new operatories and lists of available chairside PCs and
dental units.
A PC or a dental unit becomes active in the list after it has first connected to the server. If a PC or
a dental unit is not available in the list, please verify that it is connected to Planmeca Romexis
Server.
To add operatories into a layout click and drag the operatory of desired orientation into the
layout. When all operatories have been added to the layout the operatories can be named to
match, for example, the names of the actual operatories at the clinic. After placing an operatory
you can drag and drop the corresponding PC and dental unit pair into it.
Multiple floor plans can be used for multi-floor, multi-clinic or other complex layouts by creating
multiple floor plan files in PNG format on the server.
16.2 Centralized update of Planmeca dental units

DIDAPI CONFIG
The Planmeca ProMax, Proline and ProOne share the same settings, as only one device can be
configured at a time. However, only the settings relevant for the current device are shown. Thus
the number of tabs shown depends on the device that is been currently configured.
The settings in the Planmeca ProMax, Proline and ProOne Image processing tab do not affect
the Planmeca ProSensor and Dixi 1/2/3 settings which are also independent on each other.
NOTE Some settings might exclude each other, e.g. you must use either Auto levels settings or
Logarithmic mapping.
To restore default settings click the Set defaults button.
18.3.1 Auto levels enabled
White
Defines the percentage of cumulative shades of grey that is left out of the contrast range from the
upper end of the contrast range.
Black
Defines the percentage of cumulative shades of grey that is left out of the contrast range from the
lower end of the contrast range.
Midtones (gamma)
Adjusts the gamma curve of the image. Values below 1 will darken the image whereas the values
above 1 will brighten it. When set to 1 the value is not altered.
18.3.2 Logarithmic mapping
Logarithmic mapping can be used to add contrast in the image.
SCurve
The SCurve processing is a step where the difference of raw data from image to image is
compensated. The SCurve defines a look up table to convert 16-bit data into 12-bit.
The raw data values are different depending on exposure values, patient thickness, x-ray tube,
CCD camera, filtering, aging, etc.
As the position of the curve is changed less radiation moves the curve leftwards and higher dose
moves the curve rightwards. The SCurve searches the histogram and converts or compresses
the data to 12-bit scale - into values between 0 and 4095.
DIDAPI CONFIG
Select the appropriate Scurve from the drop-down menu.

Planmeca Romexis 45
DIDAPI CONFIG
18.3.4 Auto exposure threshold values (Planmeca ProSensor only)
Threshold values define how easily the sensor detects the start of an exposure. Normally default
values should always be used. If image is triggered without radiation, increasing the threshold
value could solve the problem. If exposure is missed or image integration starts too late, lower
threshold value might help.
18.3.5 Soft tissue filter enabled (Planmeca ProCeph and Cephalostatic only)
Use this option to show more facial soft tissue.
The scale is from 1,5 to 10. Values above 1 will brighten the image.
18.3.6 DICE (Dental Imaging Contrast Enhancement)
Dental Image Contrast Enhancement (DICE) adjusts and optimizes the contrast of the image
automatically and brings out image details on the entire grey scale.
To set DICE on or off separately for different image modalities check the DICE check boxes.
With panoramic and cephalometric images DICE is selected by default.
18.3.7 Use AGC
NOTE The AGC setting is shared between PAN, Bitewing, TOMO/TMJ and CEPH tabs.
The Automatic Gain Control (AGC) is supported by later Dimax2 and all Dimax3 sensors. It is
recommended to activate the AGC if the sensor supporting this option is used.
Automatic Gain Control (AGC) optimizes digital sensor sensitivity to produce excellent image
quality regardless of tissue and bone thickness.
DIDAPI CONFIG
18.4 Exposure settings (Dixi 1/2/3 only)
18.4.1 Exposure mode
In this field you can select the method the sensor uses to detect when an exposure is taken.
Auto exposure
The sensor automatically detects the start of radiation by itself.
Sync. cable exposure (w/PCI or Ethernet interface)
The start of exposure is synchronized with the exposure switch.
18.4.2 Auto exposure threshold values
Threshold values define how easily the sensor detects the start of an exposure. Normally default
values should always be used. If image is triggered without radiation, increasing the threshold
value could solve the problem. If exposure is missed or image integration starts too late, lower
threshold value might help.

SETTING UP MS SQL SERVER 2012 EXPRESS BACKUP
21 SETTING UP MS SQL SERVER 2012 EXPRESS BACKUP
21.1 Introduction
This section describes how to set up backups for Planmeca Romexis MS SQL Express by
means of a scheduled execution of a Stored Procedure using a batch file and Windows
Scheduled Tasks service. For backups on other database engines refer to their respective
documentation.
21.2 Configuration
When Planmeca Romexis installer deploys MS SQL Server onto the server computer, it also
creates a Stored Procedure in the Planmeca Romexis instance that provides a facility to make
backups from the Planmeca Romexis database, and transaction logs. To call the Stored
Procedure a set of two SQL scripts and a batch file is provided on the Planmeca Romexis
installation CD in the following location:
InstallCD\Tools\backup\
1. Copy the contents of the folder to an appropriate location such as:
C:\Program Files\Planmeca\Romexis\backup\
2. Modify the following files as instructed in the inline comments:
romexis_db_backup.sql (to configure database backup settings)
romexis_log_backup.sql (to configure transaction log backup settings)
3. The following settings are provided in both files and should be adjusted in both to fit the local
backup needs. 1 denotes true while 0 denotes false:
@backupfldr = :\romexis_images
Folder to write backup to, a subfolder 'romexis_db' is automatically created and used. This must
be changed to point to a safe location that is available for tape backup.
@reportfldr = 'c:\romexis_cache
As above but defines location for writing reports of the backup process.
@checkattrib = 1
Defines if new backups should have their archive bit set. The Stored Procedure will automatically
delete backups older than defined by dbretainunit UNLESS the files have their archive bit set to
true. If this is left at 1, the old backups should have their archive bit set to false when they are
backed up to another media to prevent the file system from being filled with backups.
@dbretainunit = 'months'
Defines the period for which the backups should be preserved before automatic deletion. Can
be: minutes | hours | days | weeks | months | copies.
@dbretainval = 2
Specifies how many dbretain units to keep old backups.
@rptretainunit = 'copies'
Defines the period for which to retain reports for. Can be: minutes | hours | days | weeks | months
| copies.
@rptretainval = 30
Specifies how many rptretainunits to keep reports.
@report = 1
Flag to indicate whether to generate reports or not.
21.3 Setting up scheduled backup
NOTE Remember to test the backup functionality after creating the task.
Use the Windows Scheduled Tasks service to setup a daily backup event as follows:
1. Open Control Panel.
2. Open Scheduled Tasks.
3. Double-click Add Scheduled Task to create a new task or on Windows 7 click Create Basic
Task..
4. Proceed with the Scheduled Task Wizard and choose Browse to select the program. Browse to
run_romexis_backups.bat that you have copied to an appropriate location.
(e.g. C:\Program Files\Planmeca\Romexis\backup\).
On Windows 7 additionally add the path to the backup script folder to the field Start in (optional).
Planmeca Romexis 57
5. On Windows 7 after creation of the task, go to Task properties and check the Run with highest
privileges option.
6. Select the appropriate operating system in the Configure for drop-down menu.
7. From the Perform this task options select Daily.
8. Specify a convenient Start time to run the backups, such as after midnight when there is no
other activity.
9. Click Next and specify a user and password to run the backups under.
This is preferably a local backup account that has limited permissions. It should also be a
persistent account since if the account is removed the backups will stop working.
10.Check the configuration and click Finish.
11.Double-click on the Task you just created to double check the configuration.
12.Right-click on the Task and choose Run to test the functionality of your setup.

UPGRADING COMPACT UNIT SOFTWARE WITH UNITSOFTWAREUPGRADER.EXE
23 UPGRADING COMPACT UNIT SOFTWARE WITH
UNITSOFTWAREUPGRADER.EXE
Those Planmeca Compact i dental units that do NOT have PlanLink-enabled software installed
must be upgraded using a physically connected chairside PC.
The UnitSoftwareUpgrader.exe is a small utility designed to assist the user in upgrading the
software. It can also be used to upgrade PlanLink-enabled units.
NOTE Administrator rights are recommended.
NOTE Administrator rights are required if PlanLink service is installed on the chairside PC since
the service needs to be stopped (as it has COM port in use).
To upgrade the software
1. Make UnitSoftwareUpgrader.exe and all related files available on the chairside PC using a USB
stick or the like.
2. Make sure that the unit is connected to the chairside PC and is switched on. The unit must be
connected to COM1. You can check and change the COM-port using Windows Device Manager.
3. Execute UnitSoftwareUpgrader.exe.
4. Click Upgrade Unit Software to start the upgrade process. If PlanLink Agent Service has been
installed on the chairside PC, it will be automatically stopped for the duration of the upgrade to
free the COM-port. It will also be automatically restarted after the upgrade has finished.
5. If the unit does not have PlanLink-enabled software, it must be switched off manually and back
on again when the progress windows states RESETting Dental Unit. If the unit already has
PlanLink-enabled software, the reset will take place automatically.
6. The upgrade will take approximately 200 seconds after which the unit automatically resets itself.
7. You can now close the progress window and the Unit Software Upgrader utility.
8. Reset the unit and check the boot prompt on the instrument console to see that the correct
version is installed.
9. Enable PlanLink (PMUAPI) communication on the unit by setting the service mode 210 to value
1.

TROUBLESHOOTING
APPENDIX A: PMBRIDGE CONFIGURATION
To support other software companies and their developers to integrate their software, Planmeca
has created interface standards and libraries.
Pmbridge interface provides a simple way of data transfer between Planmeca Romexis and
practice management software of another company. Pmbridge functions as a "bridge" and
passes necessary patient information to Planmeca Romexis imaging software and images from
Planmeca Romexis to the third party software.
For integrators who do not need image transition from Planmeca Romexis to practice
management software a lighter solution called DxStart is also available .
A.1 Windows Registry additions
The following path is added as following Windows registry entities' values:
C:\Program Files\Planmeca\Romexis\pmbridge
32-bit and 64-bit Windows:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AppPaths\Dimaxis.
exe (Value Name: Path)
32-bit and 64-bit Windows:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Planmeca\Romexis (Value Name: pmbridge)
64-bit Windows:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App
Paths\Dimaxis.exe (Value Name: Path)
64-bit Windows:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Planmeca\Romexis (Value Name:
pmbridge)
TROUBLESHOOTING
NOTE According to Pmbridge SDK instructions, practice management software has to add the
folder 'Program' to the path obtained from registry. That is why the complete path is not
found from the registry.
NOTE Pmbridge installation updates the Dimaxis.exe registry key to point to Romexis pmbridge
folder. This disables Pmbridge use with Dimaxis. If pmbridge is still desired to be used
with Dimaxis, the respective registry key should be changed to point to Dimaxis pmbridge
folder.
A.2 Windows Environment Variable additions
The following path is added to Windows Environment variable Path:
C:\Program Files\Planmeca\Romexis\pmbridge\Program
A.3 Users
Pmbridge user group permissions can be altered to pmbridge user needs in Planmeca Romexis
Admin Module. For more information see Planmeca Romexis users manual.
Planmeca Romexis installer creates a user group Pmbridge Users and a user Pmbridge to
Planmeca Romexis database. When starting Planmeca Romexis via pmbridge, the respected
user is automatically selected (Romexis.bat file's parameters uid (user id) and pwd (password)
found from the pmbridge installation folder).
Planmeca Romexis 77

For historical reasons, the path is saved in Dimaxis registry key. To obtain the path, open the
Windows registry:
1. Open the Windows Start Menu and click Run.
2. In the Run window, enter the command <regedit> to open the Registry Editor.
(In Vista the command <regedit> needs to be entered in the Start Search box)
3. Verify the following Key in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App
Paths\Dimaxis.exe
64-bit Windows:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App
Paths\Dimaxis.exe (Value Name: Path)
If this key does not exist, it needs to be created.
Planmeca Romexis 79
Creating the key
1. Open the key:
C:\Program Files\Planmeca\Romexis\pmbridge.
2. Right-click the App Paths key and select New and Key. Name the created key as Dimaxis.exe

NOTE It is highly recommended to backup the original database(s) before using the Database
tool.
NOTE If realistic implants, crowns or STL imports have been added to the source database's
images, the folder /Planmeca/Romexis/geometries and all its subfolders have to be copied
to the target server computer.
G.1 Exporting files from one database to another
NOTE Before starting shut down Planmeca Romexis server.
NOTE It is recommended to shut down other processes and executable files not needed to
ensure the database tool has sufficient amount of free memory.
1. Go to the Planmeca Romexis installation DVD folder /tools/database_tool/
2. Start Romexis Service for Database tool by launching the following script:
start_romexis_server_for_database_tool.bat
3. To launch the Database tool, launch the following script:
Export_Romexis_database.bat
The Database tool starts.
4. Choose the folder where to export the database files by clicking the Browse button.
5. Start export by clicking Export files.
Planmeca Romexis 97
This may take a few minutes. When export is completed the message Tables were serialised to
file X appears.
6. Close Database Tool.
7. Copy the output folder containing the *.serial files to the media that will be used to move the
database to another system (if the folder is not there already).
8. Copy the Romexis image file folders into the same folder with the*.serial files:
c:\romexis_cache,
c:\romexis_ergodata
c:\romexis_images
NOTE The database transfer tool renames imported duplicate usernames and device names.
NOTE A statistics window is shown at the end of a merge/import and an export. This page
shows the amount of exported or imported lines in each table. Also renamed duplicate
user names and duplicate device names are listed.
G.2 Importing database from one location to the other
Make a new Planmeca Romexis installation under the same version that was in use when
exporting the data.
Attach the media to the target system.
NOTE Before starting make sure Romexis server is NOT running.
If merging two databases together start from step 3.
Moving an old database to a new computer with empty database
NOTE Do not run the script if merging two databases together! The script will empty the target
database.
1. Go to the Planmeca Romexis installation DVD folder /tools/database_tool/
2. Remove all lines from each table in the target database and reset the tables indexing to zero by
running the following script:
\Clear_Romexis_database.bat
NOTE This script can be run only once. If it is ran twice the database indexes get corrupted and
have to be re-installed.
3. Start Romexis server for Database tool by launching the following script:
start_romexis_server_for_database_tool.bat
4. Import Romexis database by launching the following script:
Import_Romexis_database.bat
5. Choose the location of serialized (*.serial) files by clicking the Browse button.
6. Start the import by clicking the Import files button.
This may take a few minutes. When serialization is completed the message
Files were de-serialized to database appears.
Patient merging is done using external ID of the patient. Also inactivated patient images will be
taken into account.
7. Open Romexis client and verify that the database has been successfully moved to the new
computer.
Merging source database into an existing database
Go through the steps from step 3 to step 7 on page 98.
If the implant library has been installed to either of the databases (source or target) install the
newest Implant Library to the target database after merging the source database into an existing
database.
