Technical Manual
Slide the soft tissue filter positioning light to left as far as possible. The light will come on and the
soft tissue filter, on the cassette carriage, will automatically move to the correct position.
Figure 41
The beam from the soft tissue filter positioning light must strike the line on the beam alignment
tool marked “Positioning light 0mm” and the number on patient positioning display must be 00. If
the light is in the wrong position it must be repositioned and if the display number is wrong it must
be recalibrated. If the light beam itself is crooked or out of focus the lens or mirror must be repo-
sitioned. Refer to the section “Soft tissue filter positioning light calibration and adjustment” on
page D-40.
Figure 42
Select kilovolt and milliampere values high enough to enable the radiation beam to be seen in a
darkened room for example 62kV and 6mA. The actual values will depend on how dark the room
is.
Stand behind the tube head and protect yourself from radiation. Press and hold down the expo-
sure button. The image of the radiation beam from slot number 4 will appear on the alignment
tool.
