Scanning and Erasing Plates (continued)
5. At this point, all four Scanner Track indicators will turn yellow, indicating the
PSP has been sensed and the Scanner is transporting the PSP.
6. Observe that a red glow eminates from the scanner exit slot.
7. Repeat steps 1 through 6 to process additional PSPs as necessary. Another
PSP may be fed into the ScanX when all four track indicator lights illumi-
nate green.
8. Observe that the scanned PSP exits through the scanner arch. Since the
ScanX default operation mode is with the erase mode enabled (blue LED
indicator above the ERASER switch is illuminated), the PSP is erased and
ready for reuse for a new image.
9. Observe that all transport indicators illuminate green and the red glow
from the exit slot extinguishes after the last PSP drops to the tray.
10. Retrieve the processed (scanned and erased) PSP for reuse or storage.
Make sure not to scratch the sensitive surface or nick the edges when
removing from the scanner outlet.
11. View and save the image using features of the user-supplied authorized
Imaging Software.
IMPORTANT:
PSPs will
not
be erased after scanning when operating
the ScanX with the eraser disabled. PSPs must always
be erased prior to exposure to X-rays.
Scanning Plates without Erasing
The ScanX can be operated with the in-line erase feature turned off. When the
eraser mode is disabled, the ScanX scans the same as when the eraser is enabled
except that the PSPs are n
no
ott erased after scanning. Scan an PSP without erasing
the image by performing the following procedures.
1. Activate the scanner by performing the procedures on previous page.
Note:
Upon activation, the ScanX defaults with the eraser mode enabled.
This must be disabled prior to scanning to prevent erasing of the
scanned PSP.
2. Disable the erase mode of operation by pressing the membrane ERASER switch locat-
ed on the Keypad Control Panel.
3. Verify that the blue LED indicator above the ERASER switch blinks blue to
indicate that the Erase function is OFF. The PSP will n
no
ott be erased after
scanning.
4. Insert the exposed PSP to be scanned into the ScanX by performing the
Scanning and Erasing Plates procedures provided on the previous page.
5. Retrieve the processed (
sscca
an
nn
ne
ed
d o
on
nllyy
) PSP and store in an X-ray cassatte.
The scanned PSPs still contain latent images that require erasure. Make
sure to erase each PSP prior to reuse for new images.
Erase Only Mode
The ScanX can be used to just erase PSPs. This is done simply by selecting the
E
Erra
asse
e option (instead of Scan) from the installed authorized imaging software
when activating the ScanX. During the Erase Only mode just the in-line eraser is
activated. The PSP is transported through the ScanX as a normal scan but is n
no
ott
scanned. No image is acquired and the PSP is erased and ready for reuse as
necessary. See Erasing PSPs on page 17.
