This automatic movements are available in automatic RAD Wall Stands DR,
provided with motorized vertical motion (refer to Section 1.2 "System
Configuration").
This function is just available in Automatic Ceiling Suspensions, where several
Auto-positions and Programmed Positions are configured, so the Receptor
movement may be entailed. The movement is controlled by the Ceiling
Suspension, the DR Detector moves up/down depending on the DR Detector
height which has been configured in POSITION or PP (Refer to Sections 4.2.4
"Position. Automatic System Auto-positioning", 4.2.5 "Position. Semi-automatic
System Auto-positioning" and 4.2.6 "Programmed Positions (PP)").
This functionality allows the X-ray Tube or the DR Detector to be tracked by the
other one when one of them initiates the vertical movement, whenever they are
previously aligned. The relative distance and the SID are always kept constant
(Refer to Section 4.2.3.7 "Auto-tracking" for further details about this function).
The Footswitch controls the vertical movement of the DR Detector. Step on the
RAISE or LOWER pedals to raise or lower the receptor. While stepping on the
pedal the movement goes on, but once the foot is raised off the pedal, the
movement stops.
