Reading An Image Plate - AGFA CR 25.0 User Manual

Reading an image plate

The main function of the CR 25.0 is digitizing image plates and transmitting the
digital image data to the preview station and the image processing station. The
actual workflow depends on the configuration of your system.
Reading an image plate in the interchangeable configuration
In the interchangeable configuration, you must first identify the cassette via an ID
Station with ID Tablet before you can digitize the image plate.
To read an image plate:
1 Make sure the cassette has been identified properly via the ID Station.
2 Check that the CR 25.0 is ready for operation:
• The CR 25.0 must display the operator main screen with 'Ready' status, e.g.:
QS not ready
CR 25.0
• The status indicator at the top of the CR 25.0 must be green and be lit constantly.
❖
The CR 25.0 is operational if the status field equals 'READY', even if status
messages of the destination are shown (e.g. 'QS not ready').
