Notes for using the equipment
When using the equipment, take the following precautions. Otherwise, problems may
occur and the equipment may not function correctly.
Before use
• Sudden heating of the room in cold areas will cause condensation to form on the equipment.
In this case, wait until the condensation evaporates before performing an exposure. If the
equipment is used while condensation is formed on it, problems may occur. When an air-
conditioner is used, be sure to raise/lower the temperature gradually so that a difference in
temperature in the room and in the equipment does not occur, to prevent condensation.
During use
• Confirm that [Ready] appears in the system status indicator of the CXDI Control
Software and press the exposure switch.
• To reduce exposure to RF energy, keep hands and other body parts out of close contact
with the wireless aperture on the detector.
• Do not use the detector near devices generating a strong magnetic field. Doing so may
produce image noise or artifacts.
• Avoid unnecessary exposure for patients, especially for children. For details, be sure to
read the precautions on radiation protection in the manual for the connected X-ray
generator.
• When changing or adding exposure conditions in Non Generator Connection Mode, be
sure that Non Generator Connection Mode is fully operational before an exposure is
performed on a patient. Images may not be acquired or an artifact may appear
depending on the exposure conditions (X-ray dose, irradiation time, irradiation field or
target body positioning) even if an exposure is performed.
• Images and raw data stored on the recording medium in the equipment may become
unreadable due to operation errors, equipment failure, or other unexpected events, so
be sure to always store data on an external recording device (medium) or record it to film.
Disinfection and cleaning
• When disinfecting the patient contact surfaces of the detector, wipe them with a
disinfecting cloth moderately dampened with a disinfectant such as disinfecting ethanol.
• When cleaning the detector, wipe it with a cloth slightly dampened with water or diluted
neutral detergent.
Others
• Do not use this product in combination with other equipment such as defibrillators or
large electric motors as these may cause power-supply noise or power supply voltage
variations. Doing so may prevent normal operation of this product and other equipment.
• This product may malfunction due to electromagnetic waves caused by portable
personal telephones, transceivers, radio-controlled toys, etc. Be sure to avoid having
objects such as these, which affect this product, brought near the product.
• When the detector will not be used for some time, remove the battery pack. Otherwise,
overdischarge may occur, leading to a shorter battery life.
