Trigger Button
One or both triggers must be pressed to generate emissions (after
Scan Enable button has been selected in the tablet Scan screen).
During emissions, the user can change grip on the handle, and not
interrupt the emissions if at least one trigger button is pressed at all
times, including changing which button is pressed. When both but-
tons are released, the emissions stop immediately. (Regardless of
the state of the trigger buttons, the maximum length of time the X-ray
is enabled is 30 seconds.)
12
Face
Cover on the X-ray emissions slot on the front side of the scanner.
13
“X-ray On” Indicators
Four red safety LED arrays, one on each bend of the handle, that
illuminate when X-ray emissions are detected.
14
AUX1 Connector
Cable connector for future features.
15
Battery Compartment
Compartment with tethered cover housing the scanner battery that is
powering the scanner (see also
Figure 12-6
).
16
X-ray Beam Guide LEDs
Two visible light lasers that illuminate when X-rays emissions are
detected. These mark the left and right edges of the X-ray beam
(marking in the vertical direction is not necessary because the X-ray
beam is extremely thin). These laser beams are offset from the per-
pendicular by 30° (60° total fan angle, side-to-side).
