Preface
Preface
Using this manual you will be able to correctly operate the HI-SCAN X-ray unit as user with operator access
level. The detection of objects searched for in X-ray images is, however, not dealt with in this manual.
These instructions include units that are equipped with an X-ray generator for generating an X-ray image
with one view of the baggage and freight items (single view units) as well as units with two generators for
displaying objects in two different views (dual view units - 2is). It also includes units with increased resolu-
tion (HR - High Resolution) and units equipped with precision X-ray detectors (XADA).
Units that are equipped with one or several conveyor belts or with one or several roller or modular plastic
belt conveyors are also included as well as units integrated into a baggage handling system or line,
however, the conveyors of which are controlled manually (option InLine - Variante Start/Stop).

HI-SCAN 180180-2is (300kV)
Units with automatic conveyor control integrated into a baggage handling system or line (option InLine
variants Handshake & Result and Integration Network) are not included in this instruction. For these units
a separate User's Guide for integrated X-ray units is provided.
In order to effectively apply the numerous functions offered by the HI-SCAN X-ray unit and to detect objects
searched for in the scanned items, a certain "Know-How" is required which you can obtain in operator train-
ing courses tuned to the HI-SCAN X-ray unit and in training courses for the detection of objects in X-ray im-
ages.
We recommend to read the instructions carefully before using the HI-SCAN X-ray unit. In particular, pay at-
tention to the following paragraph “How to ensure safety” which contains important information regarding
your safety.
The trouble shooting guide which is part of the manual (F 1-92 onwards) is to allow you to correct minor op-
erating troubles yourself.
