In order to ensure sufficient image quality, images are completely acquired after
the start of acquisition, even if no more radiation is released. The effective acqui-
sition time depends on the preset integration factor and is a maximum of 1.8 sec-
onds.
After complete image acquisition, radiation is automatically switched off, even if
the radiation release button remains pressed.
