[ 2 ] FUNCTION OF CONTROLS q Main Power Switch Pushing the upper side of this switch to the ON position energizes the x-ray unit. (Ready light and pre-select light for cone type, film or digital, kV, mA, and patient size illuminate.) It is recommended to keep this switch OFF when the unit is not in use, in order to prevent an accidental exposure.
[ 3 ] OPERATING PROCEDURES 1. Turn ON the Main Power Switch q. 2. Confirm that Ready Light w is illuminated. NOTE : The ready light will not illuminate unless the incoming line voltage is correct and within the x-ray’s operable range (rated line voltage ±10%). 3.
