2 DATA SECURITY REQUIREMENTS
Good computer and network security must be followed in any environment where
Planmeca Romexis is installed and used. Planmeca recommends installation of industry
standard firewall and virus protection on both client and servers.
All operating systems, as well as firewall and virus protection software, should be kept up
to date. All security patches should be installed. For more information, see the technical
documentation for the relevant software.
The following users are created by the setup software and their passwords must be
changed after installation:
•
Database admin user
•
Database user romexis
•
Planmeca Romexis default user sysadm
•
Planmeca Romexis integration user pmbridge
NOTE
To prevent unauthorised access to patient data, set appropriate user permissions and use
the operating system automatic timed workstation lock feature.
Installed minimal services:
Technical manual
Planmeca Romexis

2 DATA SECURITY REQUIREMENTS
Chapter A: INTRODUCTION
•
MSSQL Server Browser (port:1434 with dynamic ports)
•
Romexis server Java RMI (port:1099 with dynamic ports)
•
Romexis file server (port:8081)
Installed optional services:
•
Romexis Clinic Management device listener (port:6812)
•
Romexis iRomexis listener (port:8083)
NOTE
All default ports can be changed. The optional services can be turned off using the Romexis
Configuration application.
2.1 Securing image data
Planmeca Romexis uses a database system for storing patient data and image metadata.
Image data is stored into the file system as individual files. Both the database and the
image data in the file systems must be backed up and stored securely.
NOTE
Planmeca claims no responsibility for the end users’ data security or for any malfunction in
the computer system that may lead to loss of data.
Image data can be secured by backing up the folder C:/romexis_images folder on
Windows or /Applications/Plameca/Romexis/database/Romexis_images on MacOS.
NOTE
The locations mentioned above are default locations. Locations may have been changed.
Secure the patient database using backup tools of the respective database engine.
It is recommended to regularly verify the integrity of backed up files.
NOTE
The storage and backup media containing database and image should be appropriately
encrypted either on the device or the file level, to protect them from unauthorised access
during storage or in case of theft.
If backing up database with file copy, shut down the service for the respective database
engine before proceeding. Microsoft SQL and Oracle also support Volume Shadow Copy
Service (VSS) applications for backing up a live database.
2.2 Decommissioning
The patient information database and actual patient images are stored in different
locations. Depending on the setup used they can also be on different server computers.
The database location is dependent on which database system is in use.
To remove the images, delete the Romexis_images folder.
To remove patient data, delete the database. For more information, see the technical
documentation for the relevant database system.
It is also recommended to properly erase data before disposing of a hard drive that has
been used for storing images or patient data. For more information, refer to your local
legislation.

2.1 System requirements
Check that the system requirements are met, listed in section 1 "SYSTEM
REQUIREMENTS" on page 8.
2.2 Network requirements
The following network related requirements are set:
•
The server client communication is based on Java RMI over TCP/IP, thus support for
TCP/IP protocol is required.
•
Network bandwidth requirements are dominated by digital imaging requirements:
•
Viewing digital 2D image requires a transfer of roughly 5 MB of data over
network.
•
Viewing 3D volume requires a transfer of 250-650 MB of data over network.
•
Planmeca recommends that for 3D capture and viewing a gigabit Ethernet should be
used.
•
If a firewall is in use, Java RMI protocol requires Planmeca Romexis to have full
access to all ports between the defined range:
•
For more information on defining ports, see section 9.1 "Server" on page 161.
•
If a range of ports is not defined, the default setting is ports above and including

TWAIN is a cross-platform interface for acquiring images captured by scanners, digital
cameras or frame grabbers. The manufacturer of the TWAIN device must provide a
Source Manager and TWAIN Data source for your device to work with Planmeca
Romexis.
Planmeca Romexis supports the current TWAIN_32 standard. Refer to your device
manufacturer’s documentation for information on the availability of TWAIN_32 source
interfaces.
NOTE
TWAIN Capture is only supported only on Windows operating systems.
2.1 TWAIN Settings
The settings for the used TWAIN sources must be defined in TWAIN Setup. If several
TWAIN sources are used, the TWAIN Setup must be performed once for each source.

2.1.2 Default TWAIN Source Settings
Wait for TWAIN driver Close
Specifies whether a Close command is expected from the TWAIN driver to signal the end
of scanning session. If disabled, only single scan is expected to be received. When
enabled, multiple scans can be made in one session which are all returned in one batch
when the scanning dialogue is closed. If the scanner software is capable of scanning
multiple images in one session this setting should be enabled.
Prefer Memory Transfer
Enables Memory Transfer instead of Native Transfer mode. Refer to your scanner
documentation for more information on supported and/or preferred mode. For scanning
colour images this option should be enabled.
Show TWAIN Launch Dialog
If this option is selected, a dialogue is shown when the scanner software has been
launched via TWAIN. On some lower end systems showing the dialogue can take some
time during which it may be useful to notify the user of the process. Some virus scanning
software is also known to slow down the TWAIN launch.
Show Import Dialog
Specify whether the Planmeca Romexis image import dialogue should be shown for each
imported image. The image import dialogue allows to choose image modality, specify
tooth numbers, and crop or reorient the image. If disabled each scan is imported with
default settings and modality is defined by the Default Image Type setting below.
Use Study Selection
This option enables the imaging with Romexis Twain client straigth to a study. If this option
is selected, the TWAIN imaging is started with study selection window (see example
below).

2.1.3 Default TWAIN Auto Import Settings
In some cases you need to configure TWAIN Auto Import Settings to enable automatic
import of images as part of the TWAIN capture. Generally this is not required and you can
safely ignore these settings.
2.2 TWAIN image preprocessing
TWAIN scans can be preprocessed using respective auto enhancement settings in
Planmeca Romexis configuration application, see more in section 3.2.2 "Panoramic" on
page 88.
2.3 TWAIN auto recovery
If the scanned images cannot be correctly imported to Planmeca Romexis due to technical
or user error during the process, Planmeca Romexis will try to recover the images in the
beginning of the next scanning session. If scanned images are available in the temporary
folder (usually %temp% on Windows computers) Planmeca Romexis will match the
images with the patient for which they were originally scanned to and ask the user how to
proceed:
•
If the patient currently open is the same as the patient to whom the images were
acquired the following prompt will be shown and Planmeca Romexis will proceed with
importing the images to the patient.
•
If a different patient is open Planmeca Romexis informs the user of unprocessed
TWAIN scans and indicates to which patient ID the scans belong to. You can continue
working normally with the current patient. Once the correct patient has been opened
after and all images have been successfully imported to the patient the prompt will
stop appearing.

3 PMBRIDGE INTERFACE CONFIGURATION
Chapter C: POST-INSTALLATION ON WINDOWS
3 PMBRIDGE INTERFACE CONFIGURATION
To support other software companies and their developers to integrate their software,
Planmeca has created Practice Management (PMBridge) interface standards and
libraries.
PMBridge interface provides a simple way of data transfer between Planmeca Romexis
and practice management software of another company. Pmbridge functions as a "bridge"
and passes necessary patient information to Planmeca Romexis imaging software and
images from Planmeca Romexis to the third party software.
For integrators who do not need image transition from Planmeca Romexis to practice
management software a lighter solution called DxStart is also available .
3.1 Windows registry additions
The following path is added as following Windows registry entities' values:
C:\Program Files\Planmeca\Romexis\pmbridge
32-bit and 64-bit Windows:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App
Paths\Dimaxis.exe (Value Name: Path)
32-bit and 64-bit Windows:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Planmeca\Romexis (Value Name: pmbridge)
64-bit Windows:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentV
ersion\App Paths\Dimaxis.exe (Value Name: Path)
64-bit Windows:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Planmeca\Romexis (Value
Name: pmbridge)
NOTE
According to PMBridge SDK instructions, practice management software has to add the
folder 'Program' to the path obtained from registry. That is why the complete path is not
found from the registry.
NOTE
PMBridge installation updates the Dimaxis.exe registry key to point to Romexis PMBridge
folder. This disables PMBridge use with Dimaxis. If PMBridge is still desired to be used with
Dimaxis, the respective registry key should be changed to point to Dimaxis PMBridge
folder.

6.2 Setting up MS SQL Server 2012 Express backup
The following sections describe how to set up backups for Planmeca Romexis MS SQL
Express by means of a scheduled execution of a Stored Procedure using a batch file and
Windows Scheduled Tasks service. For backups on other database engines refer to their
respective documentation.
6.2.1 Configuration
When the Romexis installer deploys MS SQL Server onto the server computer, it also
creates a Stored Procedure in the Romexis instance that provides a facility to make
backups from the Romexis database, and transaction logs. To call the Stored Procedure a
set of two SQL scripts and a batch file is provided on the Planmeca Romexis installation
media in the \Tools\backup\ folder.
1.
Copy the contents of the folder to an appropriate location such as:
C:\Program Files\Planmeca\Romexis\backup\
2.
Modify the following file as instructed in the inline comments:
romexis_db_backup.sql (to configure database backup settings)
The following settings are provided in the file and should be adjusted to fit the local
backup needs. “1” denotes true while “0” denotes false:
•
@backupfldr = ’c:\romexis_images’
Folder to write backup to, a subfolder 'romexis_db' is automatically created and
used. This must be changed to point to a safe location that is available for tape
backup.
•
@reportfldr = 'c:\romexis_cache’
As above but defines location for writing reports of the backup process.
•
@checkattrib = 1
Defines if new backups should have their archive bit set. The Stored Procedure
will automatically delete backups older than defined by dbretainunit UNLESS the
files have their archive bit set to true. If this is left at “1”, the old backups should
have their archive bit set to false when they are backed up to another media to
prevent the file system from being filled with backups.
•
@dbretainunit = 'months'
Defines the period for which the backups should be preserved before automatic
deletion. Can be: minutes | hours | days | weeks | months | copies.
•
@dbretainval = 2
Specifies how many dbretain units to keep old backups.
•
@rptretainunit = 'copies'
Defines the period for which to retain reports for. Can be: minutes | hours | days |
weeks | months | copies.
•
@rptretainval = 30
Specifies how many rptretainunits to keep reports.
•
@report = 1
Flag to indicate whether to generate reports or not.
6.2.2 Setting up scheduled backup
NOTE
Remember to test the backup functionality after creating the task.
Use the Windows Scheduled Tasks service to setup a daily backup event as follows.

6.3 Transferring and merging databases
The Planmeca Romexis Database tool can be used for transferring or merging database
from one location to another. For example, in case the client wants to change from one
operating system to another, or merge two different databases.
If the database is moved to a new location with the same database management system
as previously used, there is no need to use Database tool. In such case there are other
ways to move the database and images to the new location.
NOTE
The source and destination databases need to be updated to the same Planmeca Romexis
software version.
NOTE
It is highly recommended to backup the original database(s) before using the Database
tool.
NOTE
If the Implant Library has been installed to either of the databases (source or target) install
the newest Implant Library to the target database after merging the source database into
an existing database.
6.3.1 Exporting source database
1.
Ensure that the Planmeca Romexis Service is NOT running.
NOTE
Before shutting down Planmeca Romexis Service, it is recommended to shut down
other processes and executable files not needed to ensure the database tool has
sufficient amount of free memory.
2.
Go to the Planmeca Romexis installation media, /tools/database_tool/ folder.
3.
Start Romexis Service for Database tool by launching the following script:
start_romexis_server_for_database_tool.bat
4.
Start the Database tool for export, launch the following script:
export_romexis_database.bat
The Database tool checks if all the image paths are the same, and displays prompt
popups.
Press OK.
NOTE
If the paths are not the same, the Database tool raises a warning.

Use the wildcard character '*' in search fields, excluding date of birth and gender
fields.
The panel contains 2 columns of search fields so that 2 individual searches can be
performed at the same time.
NOTE
You cannot combine search results from the matching attributes and specific attributes
search methods.
After a successful search, select patients for merging by selecting the relevant patient
checkboxes.

3D Binning
The 3D Binning option specifies pre-scaling performed on 3D images before opened in the
launched application. The operation is called binning and it combines two or more
adjacent voxels into one, reducing the resolution of the resulting image. Binning does not
affect the geometry or dimensions of the image.
The valid settings are:
•
Original resolution with no image processing. This is the default value if left blank.
•
Apply binning so that the volume shrinks to half of the original, so that for example a
0.16mm resolution results in 0.32mm resolution.
•
Apply binning so that the volume shrinks to one third of the original, so that 0.16mm
resolution results in 0.48mm resolution.
A recommended output to use in 3rd party implant planning software is 0.32mm or
0.48mm voxel size. When exposing in High resolution or Standard modes (0.16mm,) use
binning value 1 or 2 (resulting in 0.32mm or 0.48mm), and with the Low dose mode
(0.32mm) use binning value 1 or blank (resulting in 0.32mm).

PLANMECA ROMEXIS USER’S
MANUAL
C.1 Configuring Planmeca Romexis manual for
Planmeca Romexis client
The Planmeca Romexis user’s manual can be configured to be used with Planmeca
Romexis.
NOTE
This option is available only with Planmeca Romexis installed on Windows operating
system.
The Romexis installer detects Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader installations and
configures Romexis to open the Planmeca Romexis user’s manual (PDF format) with the
relevant software.
1.
To configure the PDF reader manually after the installation of the Romexis, open the
file /Planmeca/Romexis/sconfig/manual_config.xml file for editing.
2.
Make sure the key application default-path contains the path to the
executable file of Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader.
3.
Check the following line for the language in use:
<locale language="en" doc-file="Romexis_um.pdf"/>
Make sure that the line contains the name of the user’s manual to be used with the

Appendix D: X-RAY DEVICE ETHERNET
CONFIGURATION IN TERMINAL
SERVER ENVIRONMENT
D.1 Configuring separate device for each Terminal
Server client workstation
To configure a separate device for each Terminal Server client workstation follow the
instructions below.
X-ray device ethernet configurations are made in the ethernet configuration files, located
in the C:\Program Files\Planmeca\Didapi folder. The file names are:
• ProSensorEthernetConfig.txt
•
PromaxEthernetConfig.txt
•
ProOneEthernetConfig.txt
NOTE
In older installations DIDAPI files are located in the Dimaxis folder
C:\ProgramFiles\Planmeca\Dimaxis\Program.
Edit the Ethernet configuration file of the respective X-ray device in order to map X-ray
devices to Terminal Server client workstations.
As a terminal server client workstation name one can use either COMPUTERNAME or
CLIENTNAME of the client workstation.
Computername and/or clientname can be seen in Windows command line: Windows Start
Menu --> Run.. --> Type in "cmd" --> In the command line, type in "set".
X-ray devices are mapped with their IP addresses.
E.g. a Terminal Server environment with three ProSensors (ip-addesses: 192.168.0.1,
192.168.0.2, 192.168.0.3) and three Terminal Server clients (clientnames: xpprosensor1,
xpprosensor2, xpprosensor3) would be mapped to each other the following way in the
ProSensorEthernetConfig.txt file.
xpprosensor1=192.168.0.1
xpprosensor2=192.168.0.2
xpprosensor3=192.168.0.3
NOTE
Each terminal server client must have access to the DIDAPI folder and a working network
connection to the X-ray devices.
