15.1 Default exposure values

15.2 Preprogrammed settings values

34 Planmeca ProX
When the unit is switched on, the default exposure values
appear on the displays.
These values can be programmed by the user, see section
16.1 "Programming default exposure values" on page 36.
NOTE The exposure values are programmed corresponding
the density value 0 (factory preset value). The
exposure time values are automatically scaled
according to the density value.
NOTE These values are for digital sensor and speed F films
(Kodak Insight). For the speed E films (Kodak
Ektaspeed) select 1 step longer and for the speed D
films 4 steps longer exposure time.

NOTE The preprogrammed default exposure values are for
the 20 cm (8") cone. When using the 30 cm long cone,
use the exposure values given in the table below.

NOTE Two sets of exposure values (time/kV/mA) have been
programmed for each exposure region: one for adult
mode and one for child mode.
NOTE The exposure
corresponding the present density value.
The exposure time values are automatically scaled
according to the density value. If you select a density
value other than 0, the new values are shown both in
programming and exposure mode.
These values can be programmed by the user, see section
16.3 "Programming the preprogrammed settings" on page
38. The recommended exposure values are given in
section 17 "EXPOSURE VALUE TABLES" on page 40.

For the speed E films (Kodak Ektaspeed) select 1 step
longer and for the speed D films 4 steps longer
exposure time.
