4. CONTROL PANEL
4.1. CONSOLE ONBOARD THE MACHINE
1 –Touch screen
The control panel (console onboard the machine) allows full control of the X-ray device. The layout of the controls has
been designed dividing the control panel into two areas.
The top area consists of a touch screen display that allows the user to select the settings required to start the
examination, select the examination to be performed and view the status information.
The bottom area consists of 7 buttons with functions to move parts of the X-ray device (column, chinrest, laser traces)
used to position the patient.
3 LEDs on the control panel indicate the system status:
4.2. PUSHBUTTON PANEL ON TELE-X-RAY ARM
For units equipped with a tele-X-ray arm there is a pushbutton panel that allows vertically moving the system and
pressing the CONFIRM button.

If the X-ray device is on, the green LED on the left is on. If the X-ray device is in standby,
the green LED on the left flashes.
If the central green LED is on fixed, it means that the X-ray device is ready for X-ray
emission. If the remote X-ray button is pressed, the X-ray examination starts.
If the central green LED flashes, it means that the device is connected to an interlock
switch that signals to the system that the access door to the X-ray room is open. In this
case, the device is only potentially ready, as X-ray emission will be enabled only when
the door is closed. If the remote X-ray button were pressed, an error message would be
shown on the display (see the chapter Error messages).
The yellow LED on the right comes on when X-ray emission is in progress.
