When necessary, use the
Increase
or
Decrease
buttons to adjust the time in 0.01 second
increments. Adjusted exposure settings may be saved, replacing factory settings (see
Section 4.9 Technique Factors Settings and Adjustments
).
4.4 Ready the Device
To prevent accidental radiation exposure, properly position the patient and operator
before readying the KaVo NOMAD PRO 2.
Press and release the trigger once to ready the device. The device will briefly display an
Enabling X-rays
message before indicating
Ready
.
NOTE:
As a safety precaution, if the trigger is held longer than one second or pulled a
second time while still in the
Enabling X-rays
state, the device will not transition to the
Ready
state. (This is to prevent an accidental activation of the device by unintended
triggering.)
The illuminated green LED, the
message
Ready
on the display panel,
and a double tone alert confirm that
KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 is prepared
to fire X-rays. The
Ready
state
continues until either an exposure is
initiated or timeout occurs after 15
seconds of inactivity (accompanied by
a double tone and the return to the
at-rest state).
While the device is in the
Ready
state, any changes to the settings
(pressing any user interface panel
button) will end the state.
