5. Adjusting the Alignment

Align the center of the sensor unit with the center of the X-ray tube. Be sure that the crossing angle is

perpendicular.

Note

Alignment of the sensor should be performed based on the assumption that the X-ray generator is set

in the correct horizontal and vertical position. If the X-ray generator is displaced to a large extent, the

alignment of the sensor may not compensate the misalignment of the X-ray generator. In this case,

you need to ask the manufacturer of X-ray generator to align the position of the X-ray generator

again.

Note

After installing the imaging unit in the Bucky unit, stand or table, the cross lines on the imaging unit

surface cannot be confirmed by the user. As a result, after adjusting the X-ray tube position, attach

an indicator mark if necessary. For installation facilities where the X-ray tube is moved, be sure

always attach an indicator mark, and perform positioning of the exposure area before taking the

exposure.

Note

If the table type is used, align the sensor unit before mounting a top panel, photo timer and grid.

5.2. Tools (should be prepared by distributors)

Alignment Adjustment Spacer, Mirror (first-face mirror), Tape, Oil-based Marker, Measure, Rope, and

other requirements.

(1) Fix the mirror (first-face mirror) at the center of the sensor unit.

(2) Place the stand temporarily in the position to space enough distance for the exposure.

Distance from the tube to the sensor unit should be 180cm.

● Using a measure or rope, align the horizontal position of the sensor unit to the center of the tube so

that the distance from the tube to the right and left side of the sensor is symmetric.
