This X-ray Generator is equipped with a Heat Unit Calculator. During
exposures, the Heat Units are calculated and totalled.
The "Heat Units" Display shows the percentage of the thermal capacity of the
Tube that is used. For example, a display of "0%" would indicate that all the Heat
Units capacity of the X-ray Tube remains.
The Dose Display shows the accumulated radiation value of the X-ray Tube
related to the selected Workstation. The radiation value of each exposure is
added to the accumulated radiation value for the selected X-ray Tube. The
accumulated radiation value is reset by touching the "Dose Reset" button.
Radiation measure is read as DAP value (Dose Area Product) in mGy*cm2 (for
example: 64.50.5 mGy*cm
Accumulated Dose of a patient can be printed (whenever a printer is connected
to the Console) by Touching the "Print" button. At this moment, a keyboard
appears on the Console to enter the Patient Name. Then touch "OK" to print
the Dose information.
