This document will explain how to use each product with MacPractice.
SOPRO Capture
When using a Sopro Camera, captured video frames are sent to the import folder as set in the Snapshot menu item. Choose Snapshot Auto-Name Setup.
Check the Auto-name box then set the Destination Folder with the Choose button to the right of the field. Click the OK button to proceed with these settings.
Acteon Layouts
The layouts, presets, and filter settings may vary based on personal preference, desired outcome, and unique hardware. However, as a general suggestion for Acteon products, we recommend the following layouts, found in the Shared Layouts node of the Digital Radiography ability:
Mandibular Only
Maxillary Only
Sopro FMS 18
SOPIX2
...
Digital X-ray Sensor
Before using the SOPIX2 sensor, install SOPRO Imaging for Mac available from Acteon Support. Double-click the "Install SOPRO-Imaging.pkg" item, and follow the instructions in the installer.
...
To take an image: Make sure SOPIX2 is open. Go to the Digital Radiography ability in MacPractice, and set up a visit for your patient. Take an image with SOPIX2 and it will be saved to the selected folder, then imported into the selected visit in MacPractice.
Note: Sopro uses the same name for all images. This means taking a second image before the first one is imported will result in the first image being over-written and lost. It may be useful to keep the import folder open in Finder, and monitor the imports before taking another image with SOPIX2.
PSPIX: Phosphor Plate X-ray System
PSPIX is a Phosphor Plate system. Images can be exported from SOPRO-Imaging and placed in a MacPractice Auto-Import folder.

To learn more about this configuration, please see the configuration guide for Sopix2.
