Fine adjustment 4-1) As the step (3)-3) above, make the system “READY” by selecting the exposure mode “SMPTE” on the exposure screen. [Fig. 4] [Fig. 4] 4-2) On the X-ray generator press the exposure button. After the exposure, adjust the trim so that the gray scale may be located in the center of the image.
Page 112
4-3) Select the END STUDY and transfer the SMPTE pattern image to the printer or the high-definition monitor. [Fig. 6] 4-4) On a printed film or on the monitor, measure the density of 32 steps of the grayscale on the test image. [Fig. 7] *1: Measure the SMPTE image density on the film using a densitometer.
Page 113
4-5) As the step (3)-6), create a graph based on the data measured in step 4), and make sure that the data from the minimum density to the maximum density nearly form a straight line. Characteristics of the printer may prevent the data from forming a straight line near the minimum and maximum densities.
Page 114
<Reference 1> In the data and graph below, the data was obtained by setting the Kodak MLP 190 to curve shape 0 (density linear), a maximum density of 3.20, the SMPTE test image was printed out, and the image data was measured. As shown in the graph, the data from the minimum density (film base density) to the maximum density nearly form a straight line.
Page 115
<Reference 2> Example when the graph does not form a straight line In the data and graph below, the data was obtained by using the Kodak MLP 190 to print out the SMPTE test image, and the image data was measured. (1): Shows normal data.
12.12 Operation Unit Gamma Correction Purpose This procedure is performed so that the image that is printed out or displayed on a high- definition monitor conforms exactly to the exposure image on the operation unit. Notes 2-1) The procedure in “Linearity Check of Transfer Image Density” must be completed. 2-2) If image adjustment for the printer or high-definition monitor has not been made, use the “Gamma Correction Calculation Tool”...

3. Function 1.4 Sensor Unit The sensor unit consists mainly of the basic sensor unit (LANMIT sensor, AD board, Di board, cover, etc.), the sensor cable and the ready lamp unit. After the X-ray images are converted into visible light using a fluorescent screen, they are electrically stored in the sensor.
3. Function (4) Temperature detection The ambient temperature is detected by thermal sensors on the PWB, and if the prescribed temperature has been reached, a warning, etc. is displayed. A warning appears when the thermal sensor detects 48 °C (exposure remains enabled), and an error occurs when it detects a temperature of 49 °C or more (exposure is disabled).

3. Function *Note When connecting an X-ray generator and a power box, generally, one power box should be connected to one X-ray interface (I/F) channel. However, in certain rare cases, such as when there are not enough X-ray I/F channels, multiple power boxes are connected in parallel to a single X-ray I/F channel.
There are two available imaging times as follow: 1) Normal imaging (0 - 1000 msec) 2) Long-term imaging (1001 - 3000 msec) The maximum imaging time is now 3 seconds for the CXDI-40G Compact sensor, which can be set on the GUI. [Precaution] •...

3. Function 5. msec maximum value checking Even if the values recorded in the msec values of calibration/imaging body part within the BodyPart.ini exceed the maximum msec value of the sensor, the OPU can perform the exposure using those values without checking. (This function was already implemented before CXDI v5.1.) It is the same when using the msec imaging conditions table, if a value bigger than the sensor’s maximum msec value is written in the BodyPart.ini file, the value will not be...
