The NAVIS-EX image filing software is software that acquires data from the following NIDEK fundus
photography devices and files it for easy transfer to external systems.
• NAVIS-EX alone cannot acquire the data directly from the fundus photography device.
• Capture text information can be added to images acquired from the following NIDEK
fundus photography devices. However, the images must be saved with the XML
information added.
• For devices other than NIDEK fundus photography devices, jpeg and bitmap files can be
acquired. However, capture text information cannot be acquired.
Connectable devices:
AFC-330
NON-MYDRIATIC AUTO FUNDUS CAMERA
Image data can be transferred by network or e-mail. NAVIS-EX is equipped with functions for image
drawing, image processing, image measurement, panorama image creation, stereo image observation, composite image creation, and followup. (According to the image, available functions are limited.)
NAVIS-EX can construct a network among multiple terminals and refers to and edits data from the client PC.
Server
Client
The server PC stores and manages data. Be sure the server is activated when referring to
the data with client PCs. When using a PC in stand-alone mode, set the PC as server.
Acquires (Captures) the data by connecting the fundus capturing devices.
The client PC refers to and edits data.
Four PCs at the maximum can be connected to the network at the same time.
* The connecting devices can be increased by adding the license.
• For changing and adding method of the connecting devices, see the Installation manual.
