5.2 Image plateThe image plate stores x-ray energy, which is re-emitted when stimulated by the laser in the form of light� This light is then transformed into image information in the image plate scanner�The image plate has both an active and an inac-tive side� The image plate must always be ex-posed to the active side� When used properly, image plates can be ex-posed, read and erased several hundred times provided there is no mechanical damage� The im-age plate must be replaced if there are any signs of damage, e�g� protective layer is damaged or visible scratches, which could interfere with diag-nosis�

5.3 Light protection cover

backside

-bac

The light protection cover provides several pro-tection functions for the image plate:

– Protection against sunlight and UV light, there-by adding protection against premature erasure

– Protection from dirtAdditionally, the light protection cover with its ad-hesive strips makes it easier to insert the image plate for scanning� Information on handling can be found in leaflet 9000-608-58�The light protection cover is a disposable item�

ConnectionsThe connections are on the rear side of the ap-pliance�

Exposure recognitionWhen the exposure recognition is switched on, then the unit will detect whether an image plate is exposed or not on insertion� When an ex-posed image plate is scanned then an x-ray im-age will be displayed� When an unexposed im-age plate is scanned then an empty image plate will be displayed� A preview will not be displayed on the touchscreen�When the exposure recognition is switched off and an unexposed image plate is scanned then the unit will not display anything on the touch-screen or in the software�

TreFocThe TreFoc-Technology of the HD-CR 35 NDT Plus allows the size of the laser spot to be ad-justed� This provides x-ray exposures with opti-mal signal-to-noise ratio and optimally adapted resolution�Using the pre-defined scanning modes (see "4�3 Scan mode") it is able, depending on the par-ticular application, to select the matching scan-ning mode to suit the image plate�

11 Instructions for use

CAUTIONImage data on the image plate are not resistantThe image data is altered by light, natu-ral X-ray radiation and scattered X-ray radiation� This will lead to a reduction in diagnostic information�• Read the image data within 30 min-

utes of exposure�• Never handle exposed image plates

without the light protection cover�• Do not subject an exposed image

plate to X-ray radiation before and af-ter the reading process�

• Do not X-ray during the reading pro-cess if the appliance is in the same room as the X-ray tube�

11.3 Scanning image data using the unit touch screen

Start image plate scannerWhen scanning the image data only via the touch screen there is no need for connection to a computer� The image data is stored locally on the memory card� In order to transfer the image data to the imaging software the unit must be connected to a computer�Scanning by touch screen can be done either of two ways:

Scanning:Before scanning the image data, the project data and exposure settings of the image are entered and then saved with the image data�When no project data and exposure settings of the image are entered then the image is saved to a folder with date and time�

Rapid scanning:The image is saved to a folder with date and time and no additional infor-mation�

Use Help on the touch screen for fur-ther information on operating the unit via the touch screen�

Requirements:

9 Memory card (SDHC, max� 32 GB) in a spare slot on the unit�

• Click on to switch on the appliance�
