Wired X-ray Detector Connection
shows the wired connection of the X-ray detector in an installed environment. In the
wired application, the X-ray detector is connected to the XRpad IPU-2, which powers the X-ray
detector and is responsible for the data transfer. The AC outlet should be installed near the
XRpad IPU-2 and should be easily accessible.
Figure 11
Wired Connection of the X-ray Detector
The XRpad IPU-2 may be mounted in an equipment enclosure if there is adequate ventilation
within the equipment enclosure. The XRpad IPU-2 is connected to the Imaging Workstation
using a Cat 5e/6 cable. Make sure that the XRpad IPU-2 is not connected directly with the
installed network. The Trigger I/F of the XRpad IPU-2 must be connected with the Generator
and with the Hand switch if the detector is used in external trigger mode.
The XRpad IPU-2 communicates using a standard Gigabit Ethernet network Interface and comes
equipped with an RJ45 interface port. Due to the overall network traffic, it is recommended that
you use this interface in a direct (Point-to-Point) connection with the host computer in order to
achieve optimal speed performance. The XRpad IPU-2 should be connected to the host computer
by one of the Varex XRD GigE Interface Cables or a CAT5e/CAT6 (shielded twisted pair,
stranded, or solid copper conductor) cable. The cable length can be up to 31 m.
