7) Before You Start
The Osstell Beacon is delivered from factory in a "transport" mode,
where the built-in motion sensor is deactivated.
To de-activate the transport mode and start charging, connect the small
USB connector of the Osstell USB cable, type A-C, to wide end of the
instrument. Connect the large USB connector to a standard USB type A
port of a PC, laptop or charger.
The Osstell Beacon will start-up and enter charging mode. Charge the
Osstell Beacon for at least 3 hours or until the Osstell Beacon indicates
full charge. Remove the Osstell USB cable, type A-C.
Note! It is not possible to perform an ISQ measurement during
charging.
8) Operation of the Osstell Beacon
Instrument
The Osstell Beacon is activated by a built-in motion sensor. As soon as
the motion sensor detects movement, the Osstell Beacon will start-up,
flash red-yellow-green and shortly show battery status in the lower
display and then be ready for measurement in the BL (Buccal – Lingual)
direction, which is indicated in the upper display.
The Osstell Beacon will start to measure, indicated by an audible sound,
when near an Osstell Smartpeg or Testpeg due to a built-in magnetic
detector that senses the magnet on the top of the Osstell Smartpeg/
TestPeg. Measured data will be shown in the upper display combined
with a colored light indication below the instrument tip.
The red, yellow and green color represents low, medium or high implant
stability. After 60 seconds of no motion, the Osstell Beacon will turn off
automatically.
9) TestPeg
The Osstell TestPeg may be used for testing and learning how to
use the system. Place the Osstell TestPeg on the table or hold it in your
hand. Activate the Osstell Beacon by moving it and hold the instrument
tip approximately 2-4 mm away from the top of the Osstell TestPeg. The
Osstell Beacon should start to measure and present an ISQ value of 55
+/- 2 ISQ.
10) SmartPeg
The SmartPeg is available with different connection geometries to fit
all major implant products on the market. You can find all available
SmartPegs on osstell.com/smartpegguide.
The SmartPegs are disposable and should only be used for one or
multiple measurement at one treatment session, for a single patient
only (to avoid cross-contamination). Repeated re-use may result in false
readings due to wear and tear of the soft aluminium SmartPeg threads.
