Go to Menu > Settings to open the Settings dialog for Medit Scan for Clinics.
Program Preferences
General
Automatic Backup | Save the current work temporarily. Backup data will be used for recovery if the program stops unexpectedly without saving. |
Send Anonymous Usage Statistics | Set whether to send anonymous usage statistics to Medit. Collecting Anonymous Statistics Medit is striving to constantly improve the product and user experience by collecting certain information such as:
The usage statistics will help the development team better understand user requirements and make improvements in future releases. We will never collect personal information, such as your name, company name, MAC address, or any other information related to personal identification. We cannot and will not reverse-engineer any collected data to find specific details concerning your projects. |
Practice Mode | Provide scanning training for users using a practice model. When this option is enabled, the "Practice Mode" banner is displayed on the full screen when there is no acquired scan data. * Unavailable with i500 |
Interface
Use Simple UI | When on, the program switches from the default interface to the simple interface. The simple interface provides minimum features to acquire and process scan data. | |
Show Info Box Automatically | When on, the program automatically shows the information box in the top left corner of the window while working with the program. | |
Show Scanning Information | Scan Time | Display the scan time for each stage or the total scan time. |
Number of Frames | Display the number of images taken by the scanner for each stage or the total number. | |
Scan Speed | Display the current scan speed. | |
Expand Model Control Icons | When on, the 3D model control icons of panning, rotating, zooming, and zoom fit are added to the side toolbar. |
Data Display
Adjust Color Texture | Adjust the brightness of the 3D model. The color of the 3D model will be optimized for the image acquisition software. When viewing data using other software, the resulting colors may be slightly different from the image acquisition software. |
Advanced Rendering | Display vivid 3D data with advanced technology applied. |
Reliability Map Color Scheme | Set the color of reliable data between Green, Blue, and Green/Yellow. |
Use Auto Zoom | When on, the zoom magnification is automatically set according to the size of the current scan data. |
Zoom Magnification | Set the zoom magnification manually when the "Use Auto Zoom" is disabled. |
Scanning Assistance
Smart Scan Guide | Identify any unusual actions during the scanning and provide relevant guidance. |
Smart Arrow | Show blue arrows to demonstrate low-reliability areas based on the gathered scan data. |
Warning for External Light (Beta) | Display a warning when an external light source affects the scan. * Unavailable with i900 |
Warning for Occlusal Data | When the user clicks "Complete" after scanning the data, the program checks the data and its alignment status acquired during the occlusion scan stage. |
Enable Audio Feedback | Indicate the status of the scanner through different sounds. |
Sound Library | Select the sound file for audio feedback indicating the device status. Audio files in various formats, including .wav, .mp3, and .wma, can be added to the sound list. For the scanning sound, additional options such as "Shuffle" and "Volume For Lost Tracking" are provided. |
Live View Image Stabilization | When on, automatic image stabilization is applied in the Live View during scanning to provide users with stabilized images with improved clarity and stability. * i900 only |
Live View Window Preset | Define the default settings for the Live View window options, such as window size, detach/reset window, and show/hide masking. Once you change the settings in the preset window, the changes are applied to the Live View window that appears while you are acquiring the scan data. |
Scanning Performance
Use GPU | Utilize this option to Improve overall computing performance using the GPU (graphics processing unit). |
Prevent Scan Data Misalignment | Align scan data using additional information when acquiring scan data with the Smart Scan Filtering option on. |
Extend Dynamic Range | Use peripheral data to assist in scanning difficult-to-scan areas. |
Smart Stitching Interval | Adjusts the interval to acquire new scan data for Smart Stitching. When the Smart Stitching feature is on, you can acquire and save non-continuous areas as separate data, and the continuous areas will later be aligned as you acquire more data in between. A shorter smart stitching interval will start scanning for discontinuous data sooner. At the same time, a longer smart stitching interval will wait a bit longer for the user to acquire contiguous data before accepting discontinuous data. |
Use Glitch Filtering in Live View (Beta) | Filter glitching image acquired while scanning. The results can be affected by the strength of the scanner connection signal. * i700W only |
Global Soft Tissue Filtering | Delete soft tissue and noise data. Global soft tissue filtering is conducted during scanning, when you move to another scan stage, and when you complete. |
Active Noise Filtering (Beta) | Effectively remove noisy data acquired during scanning. |
Prevent Occlusion Misalignment (Beta) | Check the direction of occlusion and mandibular data to prevent misalignment while acquiring occlusion data. |
Metal Scan | Turn this option on to automatically apply parameters optimized for metal scans when metal prostheses, such as crowns, occupy more than a certain amount of scan area. |
Post-Processing
Set File Size Automatically | Turn this option on to apply optimal file size for the scan data automatically. |
File Size | Adjust the size of the result file. Setting the slider bar to the left makes the calculation faster and produces a smaller output. Users can determine the file size based on the intended use of the result file. Smaller result files are suitable for orthodontic cases. |
Optimize Occlusion Alignment | When on, the program optimizes the occlusion alignment data. Set the slider bar to the left to loosen the bite alignment of the maxilla and mandible, while setting the slider bar to the right tightens the bite alignment of the maxilla and mandible. |
Use Neighboring Colors for Filled Holes | Turn this option on if you want to fill in the empty spaces in scan data with the color of the adjacent data. |
Clean Out Data Layering (Beta) | Identify and remove double-layering or multiple-layering areas automatically while optimizing scan data. |
Use Background Processing | Process data in the background for stages where no data is acquired or manipulated. |
Optimize After Occlusion Alignment | Automatically optimize the maxillary and mandibular data when occlusion alignment is complete. The optimized occlusal relationships allow you to preview the occlusal state of the final result data. |
Optimize Scan Data Automatically | Optimize automatically during the process of obtaining scan data. |
High-Resolution Data Processing
Apply to | Both SD and HD Scan Data | Apply high-resolution data processing to all the SD and HD scan data if HD data exists. |
HD Scan Data Only | Apply high-resolution data processing to HD data only. | |
Apply to Prepared Teeth Data (Beta) | Turn this option on to let the program automatically detect the prepared teeth data and apply high-resolution data processing to the prepared teeth data. When this option is on, the tooth area for tooth numbers registered from Medit Link can be selected in the Smart Scan Review feature. Also, if margin lines are specified, the teeth with margins are processed as high-resolution data. |
Scanner
Start Automatic Scan | The program automatically starts scanning when you enter the scan stages without having to perform any actions to start the scan. When this option is off, you can start scanning by pressing the Scan button or, for i900, double-tapping the Touch Band. |
