Readout:
The Readout display normally shows the following information (left to right):
Compressed breast thickness
Compression force
Field size
Magnification factor
When the Positioning Arm is rotated manually, the display shows the new angle for two seconds
after the brake control button is released.
D
Positioning Arm:
This consists of two arms (the Tube-arm Support and the Receptor-arm
Support), which are connected to the Telescopic Column by a common rotating shaft. The
Positioning Arm can be rotated through 360 degrees (+180/–180 degrees) around this shaft.
Note:
Do not attempt to use the handle at the rear of the arm to disengage and rotate the tube-arm
support separately. The system will not allow exposures to be made with this arm
disengaged.
D
Rotation Shaft:
This couples the Positioning Arm to the Telescopic Column. Silk-screened
markings indicate the angles of rotation.
D
Telescopic Column:
This consists of two cylinders: a fixed cylinder and a telescoping cylinder,
which elevates the Positioning Arm.
D
Emergency Stop:
There are two Emergency Stop push-buttons, one on each side of the
Telescopic Column.
Note:
If the Telescopic Column touches an obstacle during downward movement, the movement is
stopped.
