4 Technical data Sirona Dental Systems GmbH Operating Instructions CEREC Radio Device Technical data Dimensions: Approx. 104 x 75 x 24 mm Weight: Approx. 100 g Operating temperature: 0 to 40°C Storage temperature: -25 to 80°C Power supply: 5 VDC (max. 1.4 W)
This section explains the context of the CEREC Radio Device by describing the main function and identifying the system components. CEREC system The CEREC system consists of a mobile acquisition unit and a stationary milling unit. The acquisition unit generates the restoration data which is transmitted to the milling unit.
5 System description Sirona Dental Systems GmbH 5.2 System components Operating Instructions CEREC Radio Device System components The identifiable components and their role in the CEREC system are presented below: Component Description Role Symbol Acquisition unit The PC platform used for recording Data source.
5.3 Main function Main function The objective of the CEREC Radio Device is to obtain a reliable, wireless data connection between a stationary milling unit and a mobile acquisition unit. The wireless network that is created can then be used to transmit time-dependent data.
Operating Instructions CEREC Radio Device Network unit The CEREC Radio Device enables the setting up of a range of wireless network units that together create a wireless network. The number of network units in one network is limited to three. These network units...

However, any standard USB 3.0 connection can be used to power the network unit. The network unit integrated in the CEREC mobile acquisition unit is powered through this port. ● RJ-45 The network unit has an RJ45 interface to which the standard network cable (CAT5) can be connected.
● Radio characteristics CEREC Radio Device network overview The network units in the CEREC Radio Device network create a so-called peer-to-peer mesh network. This means that there is not a master or slave as with Bluetooth, nor a central controlling access point for the control as with WLANs.
Sirona Dental Systems GmbH 6 Networking Operating Instructions CEREC Radio Device 6.3 Network creation failures 6.2.1 Creation To create a new network with a number of new network units the following steps must be completed: 1. Bring all network units together in one room.
6 Networking Sirona Dental Systems GmbH 6.4 Extending the network Operating Instructions CEREC Radio Device 6.3.2 Multiple networks created When more than one network unit is powered-up too late, these network units could form their own network. Initially this will not be clear because all network units will indicate that connections to other network units have been established with a green LED (see “LED displays [ →...
Sirona Dental Systems GmbH 6 Networking Operating Instructions CEREC Radio Device 6.4 Extending the network 6.4.2 Reducing the network In some cases it may be necessary to remove one or more network units from an existing network. Sequence: 1. One network unit is switched-off.
6 Networking Sirona Dental Systems GmbH 6.5 Resetting to factory defaults Operating Instructions CEREC Radio Device Resetting to factory defaults A network unit that was previously part of a network can be removed from this network. ➢ This is completed by holding the reset button for five seconds.
Sirona Dental Systems GmbH 6 Networking Operating Instructions CEREC Radio Device 6.6 Network unit states 6.6.2 Transitions between states The transitions between these states are given in the following figure: These transitions are described in the table below: State Next state Description...
6.7.1 Frequency spectrum The CEREC Radio Device network units each receive a 2 MHz channel, assigned to them in the 2.4 GHz band. The WLAN channels in this band are illustrated in the figure below.
7 Data transmission Operating Instructions CEREC Radio Device 7.1 Stationary data transmission Data transmission To further explain the functionality of the CEREC Radio Device, this section describes how data is transmitted in various cases: ● Stationary data transmission ● Network routing ● Multiple streams ●...
7 Data transmission Sirona Dental Systems GmbH 7.2 Network routing Operating Instructions CEREC Radio Device Network routing The mobile network unit has connections to several stationary network units that each are connected to a milling unit. Therefore the mobile network unit has to determine which stationary network unit to use.
Sirona Dental Systems GmbH 7 Data transmission Operating Instructions CEREC Radio Device 7.3 Multiple streams Multiple streams The mobile network unit has connections to several stationary network units that each are connected to a milling unit. The acquisition unit sends data to all milling units.
7 Data transmission Sirona Dental Systems GmbH 7.4 Simultaneous access Operating Instructions CEREC Radio Device Simultaneous access Several acquisition units are transmitting their data via the same stationary network unit. For the acquisition units the effective data rate is lower than compared to a situation where the stationary network unit was not used together with other acquisition units.
Sirona Dental Systems GmbH 7 Data transmission Operating Instructions CEREC Radio Device 7.5 Interrupted transmission Interrupted transmission The acquisition unit is removed from the range of the stationary network unit and no alternative connection to the milling unit is available. Sequence: The acquisition unit is removed from the range of the stationary network unit.
7 Data transmission Sirona Dental Systems GmbH 7.6 Increasing the range Operating Instructions CEREC Radio Device Increasing the range If the distance between the acquisition unit and the stationary network unit of the milling unit is too long to establish a direct connection, there is the possibility to extend the range by using two additional network units which have to be paired as a separate network.
