Touch the image position field in the middle of the display
to select the imaging position.
The X-ray image in the top right corner of the field shows
in which order the images will appear on the radiograph.
The active exposure is shown in full colour. The number in
the top left corner indicates the number of the active
exposure.
On the display that appears you can adjust the imaging
position by touching the target position arrows in the
bottom right corner. The arrow pointing to the left will
move the target position forward and the arrow pointing to
the right will move the target position backward. The
target position on the other jaw side will move accordingly
if the icon for symmetric/asymmetric setting shows an
undivided jaw (one line in the middle). The number that is
shown on the display demonstrates the position of the
layer light and serves as a reference for later retakes.
NOTE
The imaging position can also be adjusted by touching the
target position arrows on the main TMJ display.
The imaging angle can be adjusted for lateral TMJ
exposures. To adjust the imaging angle for the exposure
you are going to take touch the imaging angle arrows next
to the degree marking. Touching the upwards pointing
arrow will decrease the angle and touching the
downwards pointing arrow will increase the angle. The
imaging angle on the other jaw side will change
accordingly if the icon for symmetric/asymmetric setting
shows an undivided jaw (one line in the middle).
NOTE
The default imaging angle for lateral exposures (17
degrees) can be changed by the user. Refer to section
14.2.2 "Program presets (P2200)" on page 84 for more
information.
