3C.13.2 APR Editor (Cont)
To change parameters or techniques for an existing APR item.
Step Action
1.
Select the APR item to be changed. If the APR item is in a submenu of a menu or procedural item, select the parent menu item or
procedural item, then press
Open Sub-Menu
. It may be necessary to drill down through several submenus to find the desired
APR item.
2.
When the selected APR item is highlighted, select the patient size. The desired parameters / technique may be changed for that
patient size (kV and mA, mAs, ms, density, AEC / mA/ms / mAs, focal spot, film screen, AEC fields, image receptor). Repeat for
all patient sizes for that APR item as required. The highlight will change to red when the programmed APR has been altered.
3.
Repeat steps 1 and 2 for other APR items within that menu or submenu, if applicable.
4.
Press
BACK
when finished changing APR items in that menu / submenu. This may need to be done more than once to return to
the top APR menu for the selected region of interest. A pop-up window will display asking if you wish to save the changes. Press
YES
to save the changes;
CANCEL
cancels the changes.
NOTE:
When editing or adding an APR item, menu item, or procedural item, an English keyboard will pop up at the
bottom of the screen. A partial keyboard with international symbols corresponding to the installer-selected
language may be displayed at the top of the screen. Characters may then be entered via either keyboard.
An ID code window may be displayed to the right of the window for the item text. The ID code is used by some
imaging systems, and use of the proper code synchronizes the APR’s between the touchscreen console and
the imaging system. Refer to the appropriate imaging system documentation for valid ID codes.
Touching the ID code window will move the cursor into that window, allowing entry of the ID code. THE I.D.
CODE IS NOT AVAILABLE ON ALL SOFTWARE CONFIGURATIONS OF THE TOUCHSCREEN.
