Executing the exposure
1.
Take a safe distance from the X-ray tube.
CAUTION:
Excessive user or operator radiation exposure. Always keep a
distance of at least 2 meters from the focal spot and X-ray
beam, protect body and do not expose hands, arms or other
parts of the body to the primary beam.
2.
Press the exposure button or the wireless exposure button to execute the
exposure.
The exposure is sent to NX.
WARNING:
During exposure ionizing radiation is emitted by the X-ray
system. To indicate the presence of ionizing radiation, the
radiation indicator on the control console lights up.
CAUTION:
Do not select another thumbnail until the preview image is
visible in the active thumbnail. The acquired image may be
linked to the wrong exposure.
In NX:
• While the acquisition is ongoing, the X-ray on indicator is displayed on the
software console. The led beacon light lights up yellow.
• The image is acquired from the DR Detector and displayed in the
thumbnail.
• If collimation is applied, the image is automatically cropped at the
collimation borders.
• The actual X-ray exposure parameters are shown in the Image Detail pane.
