2.4.1. Setup for Exposure
IMPORTANT!
Never move the Rotation Unit manually as permanent damage to the CDRPanX
system may result. To reset or reposition the Rotation Unit, ALWAYS use the Exposure switch with
the system in TEST mode.
The Rotation unit can be at rest in one of four positions:
1.
Patient Entry Position – Rotation unit at rest with the Control Panel on the left, X-ray
generator on the right (when viewed facing the mirror).
2.
Ready Position – Rotation unit positioned at rest at the start of its travel waiting for
start of exposure.
3.
End of Exposure Position – Rotation unit at rest at the end of its travel at the
completion of an exposure.
4.
Patient Exit Position – Rotation unit at rest with the Control Panel on the right, X-ray
generator on the left (when viewed facing the mirror).
The Return button on the Control Panel or the Exposure switch is used to initiate the
positioning of the Rotation unit. Assuming the Rotation unit is at the Patient Exit position
from a prior exposure, momentarily pressing either the Return button or Exposure switch
sends the Rotation unit to the Patient Entry position.
