4. Depress the foot pedal again and now look at the control panel.
The red "x-ray on" light should illuminate and remain on for as long
as you hold down the foot switch. Release the foot pedal.
5. Place a component (such as a circuit board) inside the inspection
chamber directly underneath the x-ray tube.
6. Depress and hold the foot switch. The x-ray image of the
component should now be visible.
7. Move the component while the foot switch is depressed. If the
component is large enough to extend beyond the curtains, it is
permissible to move the component while the foot switch is
depressed- AS LONG AS THE CURTAINS DO NOT OPEN
DURING MOTION, AS THIS WILL INCREASE X-RAY LEAKAGE.
The image should move with the component. The image will
display a trail behind the component, which will disappear when the
component has stopped moving. This is a normal occurrence and
is a function of the image processor. The video processor included
with this system is preset to 8 frames averaging. Averaging makes
the x-ray image less grainy and can be adjusted to improve image
quality but with an increase in motion lag.
8. Images may be captured electronically when the XR 3500/3700 is
used with the TF 1700/2700 PC or IR 3000 PC and software.
9. XR 3500/3700 Maintenance
The XR 3500/3700 system has been designed for simple maintenance. The only
suggested maintenance is to keep the unit visibly clean and to keep the system's
calibration up to date. The window is made of a lead-impregnated acrylic resin;
NEVER allow solvents that will attack acrylic to be used near the window. If you
find that your system is coming close to its calibration date, please contact PACE
to schedule a calibration.
It is very important that you contact PACE early, so that we may schedule
service at a convenient time.
Warning: The acrylic and vinyl around the opening of the XR 3700
contain lead. Always wash your hands immediately after use. Eating and
drinking without washing your hands may cause you to ingest lead. *
*Your system is now ready for use*
