Description
Displays information related to connection of accessories (ECG,
respiratory gating), positioning interference, and cradle unlatch.
This information is used in the scan room while positioning the pa‐
tient.
The Collision light illuminates when there is a possibility that the ta‐
ble, cradle, and gantry could collide. There are elevation collision
sensors on the front and rear table covers. The collision sensors
are active during table elevation.
The light also illuminates if there is ten pounds of resistance during
cradle motion in/out or when reaching the travel limits of the table,

need to raise or lower the table, determine if resistance is being
caused by any patient restraints, accessories, or by the patient.

unlatched. When the cradle is unllatched, it is free floating.
The Internal ECG indicator is lit when an internal ECG gating sig‐
nal is seen by the scanner.
