Position the AE sensor
Since the positioning of the sensors in the beam path of the cone
strongly influences the image quality, using the parallel technique with
the single use holder system or with the AimRight sensor holder system
is recommended for optimal positioning of the sensors.
With the single use holder system the sensor is affixed to the sensor
holder with a sensor holder tab. Sensor holder tabs may be detached
and reaffixed several times during an exposure series on the same
patient. The sensor holder tabs must be glued to the active sensor
surface (A) in all cases.
The AimRight sensor holder system is a plug-in system. No sensor
holder tabs are required.
Since the positioning of the sensors in the beam path of the cone
strongly influences the image quality, using the parallel technique with
the Xios AE sensor holders is recommended for optimal positioning of
the sensors.
Sensor holder tabs may be detached and re-applied several times
during an exposure series on the same patient. The sensor holder tabs
must be applied to the active sensor surface (A) in all cases.
Always use a hygienic protective sleeve.
NOTE
The sensor cable is sensitive to mechanical influences.
The cable may become damaged or may wear out prematurely.
➢ Avoid bending, creasing or rotating the cable or exposing it to
other strains. Do not ride over the sensor cable, e.g., in a chair.
Do not swirl the sensor about by its cable.
➢ When removing the plug pull on the plug and not on the cable.
➢ Make sure that the sensor cable is run out of the patient's mouth
in such a way that the patient cannot bite it.
➢ Inspect the sensor cable visually for damage every day.
NOTE
This AE Sensor USB Interface components and the Xios AE sensor
must not be exposed to any mechanical influences such as vibrations
from impacts or falls.
