Patent ID: 7505558

Claim:
An operating method of an apparatus for the acquisition and visualization of dental radiographic images comprising at least one X ray emitter device; at least one radiographic sensor for the acquisition of a dental radiographic image; a processing unit for storing and visualizing said image; and communication means adapted to transmit the image acquired by the radiographic sensor to the processing unit according to a predetermined radio communication protocol; said method comprising: discriminating automatically a radio communication put into effect between said at least one radiographic sensor and said processing unit from any other radio communication put into effect by said processing unit from and to other devices or apparatuses different from said at least one radiographic sensor, and adapted to communicate according to said predetermined radio communication protocol used by said communication means, wherein said discriminating occurs prior to establishing a preferential communication channel between said at least one radiographic sensor and said processing unit; identifying, on the basis of said discrimination, said at least one radiographic sensor prior to establishing said preferential communication channel between said at least one radiographic sensor and said processing unit; and automatically configuring said preferential communication channel between said at least one radiographic sensor and said processing unit on the basis of said identification.
