The server software only needs to be installed if the server machine is new or if a full reinstallation of the server is in progress.

Two New Image Enhancement Features have been added to CDR 5.14 – Enhancement Mode and Fixed Enhancement

Change Modes:
Right-click on the Image | Enhancement | select Mode A or Mode B:
- Fixed enhancement is a new option under the Image tab on the X-ray Acquisition Control Properties Screen.
- When you do select this option you will no longer have use the Sharpen Slider, Diagnostic Tasks, and Enhancement Modes after the image is acquired into the software.
- All of the enhancements are applied before you see the image and then can no longer be changed after the image appears in the software.
- This feature is only applied to Schick 33 Images.
Apply Fixed Enhancement:
- Click System.
- Click Xray Settings.
- Click on the Image tab.
