Removing a Jammed Image Plate

To remove a jammed image plate:
1. Switch off the digitizer and switch it on again.
During startup, the digitizer tries to return the image plate into the
cassette.
2. If the status indicator constantly lights up in green, the image plate is
returned into the cassette. Push the cassette release button and remove the
cassette from the cassette slot.
3. If the status indicator still lights up in red after startup, continue with the
next steps.
4. Switch off the digitizer.
5. Remove the power plug from the socket.
6. Simultaneously press the two buttons positioned underneath the cassette
unit.

Note: The technical concept does not allow the user to remove the
top cover.
Note: The digitizer always reads and digitizes the plate first, then
erases it and transports it back into the cassette. If a plate jam
occurs before the plate is scanned, there is a fair chance that you
can recover the image by putting the image plate back into the
cassette and digitizing it again. While handling the image plate,
prevent exposing it to daylight as much as possible.
CAUTION:
In case of an image plate jam, do not push the release button
unless the status indicator constantly lights up in green. Pushing
the cassette release button while the status indicator is blinking
may damage the image plate.
CAUTION:
A finger getting caught in the device can cause injury of
the operator.
Remove the power plug from the socket before removing a
jammed image plate.
