Suni Configuration with MacPractice
After restarting the computer and connecting the Suni Sensor through the USB connection, configure MacPractice to use the Suni Sensors. Suni Integration is a purchased ability that will need to be enabled through the MacPractice Accounting Department.
...
When the Suni Device is selected, the default settings for Sensitivity, Threshold, and Integration are enabled. Confirm that Use Image Correction is enabled. While the calibration sliders can be adjusted, the settings are generally optimal for the Suni device. Please see Calibrating the Suni Device prior to making any changes.
...
The Use Auto Filters preference is automatically checked to obtain the best possible results from the Suni device. To turn this setting off requires the intervention from MacPractice Support.
...
Please see the Digital Radiography Preferences section for information on any of the other general preferences available.
Calibrating the Suni Device
Generally, the default calibration Preferences set in the Device tab of the Digital Radiography panel should be used for optimal image quality. However, the Sensitivity, Threshold, and Integration can be adjusted as the device to further calibrate the device.
...
Integration time is designed to accommodate X-Ray exposure and prevent moving an image in the device while the X-Ray is still activated. The range of integration time is from 200 ms to 1000ms, where the default setting is 300 ms. If more than 300 ms exposure time for an X-Ray image is needed, increase the integration time incrementally. If a blurry image is experienced while using a pulsed (AC-head) X-ray source, the integration time should be adjusted incrementally until a more optimal level of image blur is achieved. Generally, the default integration time value of 300 ms should be used.
Using Suni with MacPractice
Using the Suni Sensor with MacPractice will closely follow the CAPTURE workflow:
Create a Patient Visit.
Add Visit Details.
Position the sensor.
Take the images.
Use any post-processing tools; such as the Options Menu or Filter Settings.
Review the Layout.
Export, Print, or View in full-screen.
...
The integrated device will offer the additional usability of the interface Capture button. To begin Taking the images, click the Capture button. The device will display as "Ready". Using the X-ray device, take the image and it will appear in the Layout within the first block position or within the selected block. Each subsequent image will appear in the next position on the Layout or within the selected position. When finished, click the Stop Capture button to reset the device back to "Waiting" status.
Suni Layouts, Presets, and Auto Filters
When using the Suni device, automatic adjustments that have been specialized for the device are applied within the available layouts. Within the Shared Layouts node of the Digital Radiography ability, download the Suni specific Layouts. Once downloaded, the Layout templates will be added to the Layouts node and include presets designed to work specifically with the Suni device.
