Adjusting the volume area and collimation
You can change between VOL1, VOL2, and VOL3 (optionally) depending
on whether a smaller or larger volume can be used.
For volume exposures one of the predefined volume areas must be
selected. By selecting the quadrants, collimation of the volume in VOL1
program can be set to a height of 5.5 cm for the upper or lower jaw area,
while in VOL2 program, the height is permanently set to 5.5 cm and in
VOL3 program, collimation of the volume can be set to a height of 7.5 cm
for the upper jaw and 8.0 cm for the lower jaw. However, you must always
