摘要

A method and device for programming a cordless handpiece used for root canal treatment and having a first memory and a tool holder for a treatment tool are described. The method includes providing a first data volume having a plurality of data sets in a second memory separate from the first memory, each of the data sets comprising at least one parameter assigned to the cordless handpiece and/or to the operable tool, selecting at least some of the data sets from the first data volume in the second memory, transmitting the selected data sets from the second memory to the first memory of the handpiece, and selecting a data set from the updated first memory for operation of the handpiece.

1. A method for operating a cordless handpiece used for root canal treatment and having a first memory, at least one handpiece control element, a display and a tool holder for a treatment tool, comprising:
providing a first data volume having a plurality of data sets in a second memory separate from the first memory, each of the data sets in the second memory comprising predetermined associated parameters in a multi-field format comprising parameters assigned to the cordless handpiece and/or to an associated set of one or more treatment tools, selecting multiple data sets from the plurality of data sets of the first data volume in the second memory, transmitting the selected multiple data sets from the second memory to the first memory to update the first memory of the handpiece, using the handpiece to select one of the multiple data sets for a desired treatment tool from the updated first memory for operation of the handpiece (1) manually by actuating the at least one handpiece control element arranged on the handpiece to select from the multiple data sets displayed on the display or (2) automatically with automatic tool identification on the handpiece, and modifying the selected one of the data sets by using the handpiece control element to modify at least one parameter of the selected one of the data sets, wherein there is at least one remaining data set in the updated first memory that remains unselected while the selected one of the data sets is in use.
