Below are the recommended settings for image quality using Schick sensors. The settings themselves are the same between differing Apteryx software, however the method of accessing those settings varies slightly between the XrayVision and the DCV/XVCapture lines.
NOTE: If the office will be using the legacy Schick Sensors (CDR Phoenix or Pluswire) Apteryx recommends installing the Schick 33 / Elite driver along with either the CDR 2000 or CDR USB Remote HS driver.
