Abstract (en)

[origin: WO02100289A1] The invention relates to a method and a system for operating a dental operating chair connected to a computer, comprising operating elements and/or state indicators arranged on the dental operating chair, an interface via which the information is transmitted from the dental operating chair (1) to the computer (2), in the form of function codes, by means of the operating elements and/or state indicators, and a memory region (7) on the computer, in which at least one action associated with a function code is stored. In order to adapt the operating elements (3) or the operating surface (12), software for managing the function codes is provided on the computer, by which means the action associated with said function codes and stored in a configuration file is initiated, i.e. a PC application or an operating action is initiated or terminated in a running PC application. The allocation of the function codes of the operating elements and/or the state indicators of the dental operating chair to the PC actions can be configured by changing the configuration file.
