System Integration


The digitizer has to be connected to a dedicated NX workstation via
Fire Wire cable.

One NX workstation can acquire images from one digitizer.
IMPORTANT:

Unpacking and putting on table should be done by the forwarder. Refer to the
unpacking instruction.

Three people are required to lift the digitizer on a table.

Recommended table height: 75 cm

The Fire Wire cable length is 4.5 m for the NX workstation tower version, and
3 m for the NX workstation laptop version. This cable length is sufficient for the
"Fast ID workflow"

If the laptop version of the NX workstation is used: Do not place the laptop on
top of the CR 30-X, because the accumulated heat developed by the digitizer
and the laptop may affect the operation of the system.
NOTE:
* Fast ID Workflow means: The cassette is not identified before exposure, but waits
for patient data entry at the NX Workstation after the cassette is entered into the
digitizer. Only when the patient data are entered at the NX Workstation and sent to
the digitizer the scan cycle begins.
