IMITATIONS
'kV limitation' limits the maximum kV allowed for the connected CP
SERIES generator. Please note that limiting the kV for a long period may
cause irreversible downgrade of the generator. Contact ICM for more
information.
'Time limitation' limit the number of hours during which the generator
can be used. To add working hours enter the following values in the 'Add
hours 'field:
999 to remove limitations
• 9XX to delete previous limitation and set XX working hours as limit (with XX between 01 and 98)
Any number between 1 and 899: add this amount of shot time to the remaining shot time limit. The
•
total will be limited to 988 hours.
To enter values in the field, a code received from ICM must be entered.
•
'Date limitation' block the use of the generator beyond this date. Limit date can be edited in the 'Change'
field. To edit the date, a code provided by ICM must be entered.
'Code compute' displays a list of values that you should provide to ICM to receive the code to edit the time
and/or date limitation.

EN LAMP
Sets the behavior of the generator's lamp during the shot.
5.4.13 F
AN MODE
The speed of the cooling main fan of the CP SERIES generator can be
set to operate in 3 modes:
1. Silent: The fan speed will be kept as low as possible. During a
shot, as the generator gets hotter, the fan speed will increase to match the increased cooling need
of the generator.
2. Max power: The fan will always run at maximum power, ensuring the best cooling possible.
3. Medium: The fan will run at a medium power level and thus a reduced sound level. The fan will
however not speed up as cooling needs increase causing the generator to heat up. When the
generator gets too hot, overheating protecting will interrupt the shot and allow the generator to cool
down. The remaining exposure time can be finished by pressing the START button again.
Toggle between the 3 modes by pressing the 'OK' button while the 'Fan Mode' menu item is highlighted.
5.4.14 P
REWARNING
The pre-warning time is the time where the PowerBox will emit a warning
signal between pressing the START button and the actual start of X-ray.
The desired pre-warning time can be by pressing the 'OK' button (15)
and using the alphanumeric keyboard (7) to enter the desired value. The PowerBox will accept any value
