7-2 Overhead Rail System
The overhead rail system consists of the stationary rails (ceiling or wall mounted)
and a bridge that travels longitudinally (LONG) along the rails. Guide bearings
maintain alignment of the bridge with the rails and the X-ray table.
An electric lock controls motion of the bridge along the rails. A switch marked
“LONG” on the user interface activates this longitudinal lock. Press down the
switch will releases the lock. Releasing the switch reapplies the lock.
