1
Start Aero Storage mode.
2
Check that this device is ready to expose
images, and then prepare for the expo-
sure.
3
Push the exposure switch of the X-ray de-
vice to perform the exposure.
• After exposure, images are saved to DR Detec-
tor, and the information LED displays the num-
ber of saved images.
IMPORTANT
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
• The DR Detector is precision equipment, and there-
fore impact or vibration during radiography or image
transfer may aect the image quality. Be careful when
handling the DR Detector during and just after radiog-
raphy.
• The number of saved images displayed in the infor-
mation LED is counted when the orange status LED
blinks slowly after the X-ray exposure.
• The number of saved images displayed after an expo-
sure is the patient’s image number.
• Images exposed using Aero Storage do not have
patient information. It is recommended, therefore, to
keep record so that you can associate the patient ex-
posed with the number of saved images displayed on
DR Detector.
