Move layer position
The calculated layer position will be shown with a white
line on the image.
If necessary, you can adjust the layer position by touching
the plus/minus (+/-) fields on the control panel display.
Touching the plus field will move the layer forwards and
touching the minus field will move the layer backwards.
The new position will be shown with a red line on the
control panel display. The movement range is from +15
mm to -15 mm. The distance from the center point will be
shown at the bottom of the display (e.g. 2 mm).
NOTE Make sure the patient does not move between
exposures.
Press and hold down the exposure button again to take
the second exposure. The second exposure will produce
the actual image and the C-arm will now move through
one complete exposure cycle.
NOTE Alternatively, you can touch the OK field on the Auto
focus layer definition display and then press the
exposure button.
The radiation warning lights on the exposure switch and
on the control panel will come on and you will hear a
radiation warning tone.
When you have taken the exposure the image will be
shown on the computer screen. Note that you must
accept the image in the Planmeca Romexis program -
only accepted images will be stored in the database.
Refer to the Romexis User's Manual.
NOTE If the imaging process is cancelled from the Romexis
program, Autofocus has to be switched off (AF OFF)
and back on (AF ON) again before the next Autofocus
exposure can be taken.
