COMPONENT DESCRIPTION  
The Acclaim System is an intraoral camera system designed for dental and  
veterinary applications that consists of the Camera Handpiece, Camera  
Handpiece Holder and the USB Umbilical as described below.  
NOTE:  
Air Techniques’ VISIX Imaging Software is fully compatible with the Acclaim  
System. Contact your authorized Air Techniques dealer to acquire VISIX.  
Camera Handpiece - The Camera Handpiece is extremely lightweight with a  
high resolution, high sensitivity, auto-exposure controlled CCD sensor and a  
high performance lens system illuminated by ultra-bright white LED lamps. The  
fixed focus lens has a broad depth of field bringing all objects measuring  
between 6 and 50 mm into focus enabling the camera to finely detail a section  
of a single tooth to a full smile. The Camera Handpiece has the rich look and  
tactile feel of a metallic handpiece and provides 2 keypad buttons for fingertip oper-  
ating control of the system. The specific functions performed by the keypad  
buttons depend on the user-supplied compatible streaming video capture soft-  
ware application used.  
Camera Handpiece Holder - The Camera Handpiece Holder can be  
fastened in a convenient location for safe storage of the Camera Handpiece  
when it is not in use. In addition to storage, the Camera Handpiece Holder  
also has built-in magnet that turns off the Camera Handpiece power. This  
feature conserves energy and equipment wear so the camera is ready and  
operational when needed.  
USB Umbilical - An overall 13.5-foot cable assembly comprised of an USB  
2.0 high speed interface control module with an associated 4-foot USB 2.0  
cable and a 9-foot control umbilical. The USB 2.0 cable is terminated with a  
Type A USB connector while the control umbilical uses a quick-disconnect con-  
nector. The USB Umbilical connects between the Camera Handpiece and the  
user’s computer and provides a digital video output for use with a PC with user-  
supplied compatible streaming video capture software application.  
UNPACKING AND INSPECTION  
Unpack each component of the Acclaim System and inspect for physical  
damage such as scratched panels, damaged connectors, etc. If any damage is  
noted, immediately notify your Air Techniques authorized dealer immediately so  
corrective action can be taken.  
Make sure to save all packaging material in case repackaging and shipment is  
necessary.  
Verify that all listed items were received. If any item is missing, notify your Air  
Techniques authorized dealer.
