Reading an emergency image plate
You may have an image plate which you wish to give priority over other image
plates which are being processed by the image processing station. Such image
plates are referred to as ’emergency image plates’. The actual workflow
depends on the configuration of your system.
Reading an emergency image plate in the interchangeable
configuration
In the interchangeable configuration, you can treat either:
◆
emergency image plates with ID data via the Emergency key on the keypad;
◆
emergency image plates without ID data via the emergency buttons at the
front of the
Centricity™ SP1001
.
Reading emergency image plates with ID data
To read an emergency image plate with ID data:
1 Make sure the cassette has been identified properly via the ID Station.
2 Check that the Centricity™ SP1001 is ready for operation:
• the Centricity™ SP1001 must display the operator main screen with ‘Ready’
status, e.g.:
• the status indicator at the top of the Centricity™ SP1001 must be green and be lit
constantly.
❖
The Centricity™ SP1001 is operational if the status field equals ‘READY’,
even if status messages of the destination are shown (e.g. ‘QS not ready’).
