Creating Auto Codes

Post by Smilesbypayet » Sun Feb 13, 2011 3:19 pm

I am REALLY confused :?: by how this works, so I hope someone can help.

Just as there is an Auto Code for RCT/BU/PFC (I changed it to that since we rarely do PFMs), I would like to create auto codes that would allow us to click something once, then do the following:

LANAP: have it automatically put in the code for D4260 four times, and just allow me to put the quadrant (if it can be made to automatically enter a quadrant for each, that would be even better)

LANAP 1-3: Have it automatically put in the code D4261 4 times

SRP: same thing but for SRP, and

SRP 1-3: kind of self-explanatory by now. :)

I don't really feel like we need icons, although that would be fine, too. But how in the world do I actually set it up to put in the same code 4 times as for SRP or LANAP?

Also, if we want to use the Bridge auto code, (I obviously haven't tried this before), how does it know which teeth to put in?

OK, never mind -- I just tried experimenting a bit, think I figured it out. Hopefully I just don't screw anything up. :lol:

Procedure buttons, NOT auto codes. That's the key.

Yup, I got it figured out. Now, I'm so excited about all of this, I almost can't stop! Is there a limit to the number of procedure buttons before I go TOOOO crazy!? LOL
