The highly portable KaVo NOMAD Pro 2, now under the trusted brand of KaVo lets you gain all the reliability and efficiency advantages that every busy dental office needs and appreciates. The new KaVo NOMAD Pro 2 provides a powerful freedom in workflow that is unattainable with wall-mount units. From its safety and portability to its image capture and innovative features, the NOMAD Pro 2 is designed with the practice, the clinician, and the patient in mind.
We understand that safety is paramount when clinicians treat their patients. To keep operators safe, the NOMAD Pro 2 has two highly devised shielding features. A unique, lead-infused acrylic shield protects the operator from direct and scatter radiation while an internal proprietary housing encases the X-ray tube to block radiation leakage. When the NOMAD Pro 2 is used as directed, these shields create a “safe zone” for the operator throughout the acquisition process.
With NOMAD Pro 2, there’s an immediate cost savings over multiple operatories that would need wall-mount units. With your new handheld system, you can save on the cost and time of special construction, wiring, and installation. Safety literature and training videos are provided, and your NOMAD Pro 2 is ready for use right out of the box.
We know that you want to provide the best diagnosis for your patients, and the best diagnosis starts with the best image quality. You can depend on NOMAD Pro 2 to help produce sharp, clear radiographic images. NOMAD Pro 2 utilizes the latest in X-ray technology—a 0.4 mm focal spot plus a 60kV DC X-ray generator that consistently delivers precise, repeatable exposures.
Freedom is in your hands with the ability to take an X-ray anywhere out of the office and in any treatment area in your practice. Portable and easy to use, the NOMAD Pro 2 allows you to move freely between operatories and to remain chairside when it really counts. This innovatively designed unit allows you to stay with your patient during the procedure, especially with fearful or challenging patients. No more leaving the room to trigger exposures only to return to find that the X-ray head has drifted or that your patient has moved necessitating a retake of the radiograph. From changing image capture settings to exposing the X-ray, you can be there by your patient’s side creating a positive radiographic experience for you both.
Nomad Pro 2 Operator Training
Possible Cause
Underexposure (too light).
Action
Increase the exposure time setting.
Possible Cause
Overexposure (too dark).
Action
Decrease the exposure time setting, also check film expiration date (old film can produce dark grainy/foggy images).
Possible Cause
Chemical developer (for filmbased imaging).
Action
Ensure chemical freshness and proper temperature.
Possible Cause
Combined movements of patient and operator during exposure produced too much distortion.
Action
Check the exposure time setting and re-enable when operator and patient are again properly situated.
Possible Cause
Double triggering.
Action
Release the trigger and wait for the READY indicator.
Possible cause
The trigger is pulled for longer than 1 second.
Action
Pull and release the trigger within 1 second and wait for the READY indicator.
Possible Cause
NOMAD Pro 2 READY condition expires because the X-ray exposure is not initiated within 15 seconds of the start of the READY condition.
Action
Double-check the exposure time setting and re-enable when operator and patient are again properly situated.
Possible Cause
Incomplete exposure – the depressed trigger is released before the timed exposure is able to complete.
Action
This condition automatically clears within 15 seconds or by pressing any button on the user interface panel. Be sure to depress the trigger for the duration of the timed exposure.
Possible Cause
NOMAD Pro 2 times out after about 3 minutes of inactivity.

Possible Cause
Self diagnostics, which automatically run at startup and while the device is on, detects a potential issue.
Action
This warning message can be cleared by powering off, then on. If device self diagnostics detects the system failure again after clearance, the message will redisplay and you will need to call our service team on 0800 028 4749.
Possible Cause
If pressing Power several times does not cause the display to illuminate, the attached handset is the likely problem.
Action
Ensure handset is securely attached.
Replace with a newly charged handset in order to continue. Use the charging cradle to determine if the first handset battery can be recharged or is spent and must be taken out of service.
Possible Cause
A different problem exists if all handsets appear fully charged.
Action
Call our service team on 0800 028 4749.
Possible Cause
Male connectors on charging cradle are damaged (can also happen to NOMAD Pro 2 device connectors).
Action
Call our service team on 0800 028 4749.
Possible Cause
The trigger is not communicating with the device.
Action
Ensure handset is securely attached.
Place handset on the charging cradle and pull the trigger. If the indicator lights illuminate orange, the handset trigger communications are functional. NOMAD Pro 2 may require a service, call our service team on 0800 028 4749.
Possible Cause
The handset, in general, is not communicating with the device.
Action
Ensure handset is securely attached.
Possible Cause
The protective fuse in the handset is blown, the batteries are otherwise impaired or at the end of their life cycle.
Action
Replace with a newly charged handset in order to continue. Use the charging cradle to determine the handset status. If the indicator lights illuminate solid or flash red, the handset will need to be looked at by an engineer, call our service team on 0800 028 4749.

Routinely use a non-acetone based disinfectant wipe (according to chemical manufacturer’s recommendations) to disinfect the exterior surfaces of the NOMAD Pro 2 and the handset in between use on each patient, along with a quarterly visual inspection for damage
Make sure the power is off and unplug the charging cradle before cleaning.
It is recommended to leave the handset connected to the NOMAD Pro 2 during cleaning of the device, so that the electrical contacts are not exposed. Use a non-acetone based disinfectant wipe or a cloth to wipe the exterior surfaces of the NOMAD Pro 2 and charging cradle.
Do not spray disinfectant or cleaners directly on the NOMAD Pro 2, handsets, charging cradle, or AC power supply. The connecting areas are open to ingress and damage to your device may result.
Refrain from using cleaners that leave any sort of residue or sticky build-up on the device surface. Such cleaners can eventually interfere with properly connecting and disconnecting the handset.
NOMAD Pro 2, the handsets, the charging cradle and the AC power supply are not designed to be subjected to any kind of sterilisation procedure.
Do not open the device housing; doing so will void the warranty.
