Reading an emergency image plate in the dedicated configuration
In the dedicated configuration, you can digitize unidentified emergency image
plates. The digital image data will be assigned default ID data.
To read an emergency image plate:
1 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’).
2 Press the appropriate
emergency button at the front of the
Centricity™ SP1001.
The emergency button determines the speed class, i.e. the sensitivity, which will be
used to digitize the image plate.
To digitize an emergency image plate, you must press the Confirm key after
you have inserted the cassette (refer to step
4 ). Image data transmission to
the preview and the image processing station will be suspended until you
have pressed the Confirm key.
