The iPad can access the Sidexis 4 database via the practice's WLAN network and display the patient list and associated media.
The prerequisite for this is the installation of the "Sidexis iX Server" software on any computer in the practice that has Sidexis 4. This software handles the communication between Sidexis 4 and Sidexis iX.
