IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Correct Usage
K Operation of the ScanX may only be carried out by suitably qualified
personnel.
K The ScanX is only to be used in the processing of exposed PSPs.
K The ScanX should be used in a room equipped for it.
K Room temperature should be in the range 50 to 105°F (10 to 40°C)
with relative humidity between 5 and 95%.
K If the device is brought into the room of operation from a cooler
environment, condensation can build up. Do not connect the device until
it has warmed up to room temperature and is absolutely dry.
K This room should be free of all possible interferences (e.g. strong magnetic
fields), as these could affect the operation.
K The ScanX may only be operated together with authorized software.
K Correct usage includes observing all installation and operating instructions
and adherence to the set-up, operation and maintenance instructions.
K Any use, above and beyond that described in this manual as correct
usage, will invalidate the warranty.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The ScanX is a d igital radiography system that utilizes reusable Phosphor
Storage Plates (PSP) in place of X-ray film to produce diagnostic quality digital
radiographs. The ScanX produces a digital image by scanning PSPs, which have
been exposed to X-rays. The ScanX allows computer storage, processing, retrieval
and display of the computed radiographic images utilizing a user supplied software
and computer. An additional feature of the ScanX consists of an in-line plate eras-
er function that removes the latent image from the plate immediately after scan-
ning. This design provides an efficient one-operation scanning and erasing
process leaving the user with a PSP ready for the next X-ray procedure.
