When sending your Progeny Vision DX sensor in for repair it is important to include the calibration files with your sensor. Our Progeny Vision DX sensor repair technicians need the calibration file in order to properly test your Progeny Vision DX x-ray sensor to ensure that there are no artifacts or anomalies in the images that your repaired Progeny sensor produces.

First it is important to know what you are looking for. Progeny Vision DX calibration files are named as follows:

  • Calibration files for the Progeny DX 600 X-ray Sensors will look like:
  • 000013DC1048_Gain Image
  • 000013DC1048_Offset Image
  • 000013DC1048_Pixel Map
  • Calibration files for the Progeny 630 will look like:
  • 306739_CAL.raw
**Note: 000013DC1048 and 306739 in the file names above will reflect the serial number of your sensor.  If you have multiple Progeny Vision DX sensors in your office be sure that the file names you are sending to Sodium Dental have the correct serial number in the file name.  The serial number should match the sensor that you have in for your Progeny Vision DX sensor repair.


The three file names above are what we are looking for and are what Sodium Dental technicians need in order to properly test your Progeny Vision DX x-ray sensor repair.
