a Field strength from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile
radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy.
To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be
considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Console is used exceeds the applicable RF
compliance, the Console should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed,
additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the Console.
b Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strength should be less than 3 V/m.

Table 4
Recommended separation distances between Portable and mobile RF communications equipment and
the Console
The Console is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled.
The customer or the user of the Console can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance
between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the Console as recommended below,
according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment. 1

1111 Safety Precautions
Before using the Console, read through the following precautions carefully and handle the unit properly.
111111 Wireless LAN

1 Using a wireless LAN unit, you can wirelessly connect a mobile type Console (mobile PC) to the
network. Only wired connection is available for the connection between a desktop type Console and
the network.
Cautions as to wireless LAN units

• If you connect the Console Advance wirelessly to the hospital LAN, prepare a wireless LAN
unit under your own responsibility.
• When using a wireless LAN unit, choose a communication scheme that is suited for operation
at your medical institution.
• Use a communication scheme in accordance with the local radio laws and related regulations.
• Security settings should be enabled on wireless LAN units without fail.
A failure to do so could result in the leakage of personal information through wireless

interception.
Where possible, please use multiple security settings in combination.
• A channel to use for wireless units should be separated from channels being used by
otherequipment. If the same frequency is shared with such equipment, interference and/or the
degradation of communications quality may occur. For further information, please contact our
authorized distributor.
• Sharing study information under poor network connection conditions may increase processing
time.
• On a Console connected with the network via wireless LAN, do not read images directly from
the FCR image reader. Depending on the connection status of the network, images could be
lost. If you want to confirm an FCR image on a Console connected via wireless LAN, use the
study information sharing function or switch the network connection to wired LAN
connection before reading.
• If a Console connected with the network via wireless LAN fails to start up, the desktop screen
of the operating system is displayed. In this case, restart the mobile PC.
• Do not make an X-ray exposure when the network connection is poor.
Other cautions
Select wireless LAN devices to connect to the Console that meet the following conditions, and
have the customer arrange setup of the device.

• Security precautions when using wireless LAN devices
Wireless LANs are advantageous as they use radiowaves instead of LAN cables to transfer
information between computers and wireless access points, and anybody within range of the
radiowaves can connect to the LAN. Conversely, the signal can travel past objects that form
barriers (such as walls) within the range of radiowaves, which means if security is not set
properly, the following issues can arise.
1
○ Transferred information can be viewed and stolen
Malicious third parties are able to deliberately intercept radiowaves to view and steal
information being transferred, including personal information such as IDs, passwords
and credit card numbers, and the content of email.
○ Unauthorized access
Malicious third parties are able to obtain unauthorized access to personal and corporate
networks, retrieve personal and confidential information (information leakage),
impersonate certain individuals to communicate with others, send out unauthorized
information (by impersonating others), modified transferred information that has been
intercepted (modification), release computer viruses and other malicious software, and
destroy data or entire systems (destruction).
Wireless LAN cards and wireless access points come with security systems to prevent these
issues from arising, so using devices by adjusting wireless LAN device security settings can
largely prevent these issues. Customers are requested to fully understanding the issues that can
arise if security settings are not adjusted properly, and are recommended to adjust settings by

Close the “Windows Task Manager window”, and then select the “Start button” in the lower
left of the screen. Select “Restart” from the displayed menu.
NOTE
• Make sure to perform the shutdown operation following the above procedures in the case of
a hangup of the Console.
If the personal computer is turned off without performing the shutdown operation, an error
may occur on the computer.
• Note that forcible shutdown processing of the equipment is an emergency action. Do not
use this action under normal situations.

(2) When the Console is turned off due to electrical outage
When the Console is turned off due to electrical outage, etc., take the following actions according the
condition when the power comes back on.
• If the power comes back on soon after the electrical outage

Wait for the Console to restart.
When the Console restarts, shut down the Console by following the normal procedure.
For details of system shutdown, see “3.1.2 Shutting Down the Console”.
When restarting the Console, follow the procedure for the system startup.
(3) When the dose area product measuring system is used

To ensure the accurate reception of necessary information from the dose area product measuring system
connected to the Console, it is essential that the precautions and operational procedures described below be
strictly followed.
If the precautions are not followed, inconsistencies may arise in the setup data used for each exposure,
possibly causing the data to be lost or to fall outside of the guaranteed range.
 Precautions regarding the line connection to the Dose Area Product Measuring System
• When the is displayed on the Console monitor, select the and check to see if any
error message regarding the dose area product measuring system or its connection status 5
appears or not. If an error message appears, check the connection between the Console and the
dose area product measuring system. If the connection is fine but the error message remains,
contact our authorized distributor.
• If a problem with the line condition occurs at the start of a study, the following error message
box will appear.
If you see this message, select . If the error message box remains even after selecting
several times, contact our authorized distributor.
If you select , exposure will be started without the receipt of X-ray exposure parameters.

 Operational procedure
1. Register the exposure menu first before starting the study.

2. Select one exposure menu and then do the necessary tasks, such as preparation of the IP cassette.
3. Perform the X-ray exposure.
4. Perform IP registration of the exposed IP cassette.
After IP registration, the Console receives the X-ray exposure parameters from the dose area product
measuring system. The should be displayed, so confirm that it does. At a facility where only one FCR
Image Reader is used and IP registration is not performed, the X-ray exposure parameters are received at
the time the IP cassette is inserted into the FCR Image Reader.
5. View the “study information box” to confirm that there are no differences between the exposure data displayed
on the dose area product measuring system display unit and the exposure data received by the Console.
6. Start the next exposure.
 Precautions
• After performing one exposure, it is important that you follow the procedure to perform a single
IP registration. When you have performed the IP registration, the X-ray exposure parameters are
received and the parameters are reset. For this reason, when you do multiple IP registrations
after one batch of multiple exposures, the actual setup data for the batch exposures are counted
as a single set of X-ray exposure parameters when the first IP registration is performed.
• If a problem occurs in the line condition during step 4, the following error message box will
5 appear.
Select . If this error message box appears, the X-ray exposure parameters cannot be
received.
NOTE
• If you use the X-ray Control Unit Online Software in a hardware configuration for receiving
X-ray exposure parameters (actual setup data), make sure the dose area product measuring
system is turned on before you start up the Console.
If the dose area product measuring system is not turned on, the Console will not be able to
receive any X-ray exposure parameters.
• The unit may be different between exposure results on the display unit of an area dosimeter
and those the Console has received.
Check the unit on both to make sure that exposure results are the same.

Readers together.
• Make sure that the IP registration is correct and the image reading direction is proper before
the image reading.
• When markers have been input on the source images with the marker input function offered
by the Console, those markers will be erased to create the stitched image.
• The settable film-output format is 1-image format only. Other formats cannot be set.
• The life-size image output function is available to enable a support to 100%-size image
output. Note, however, that a ±1% error in relation to an image’s entire width occurs
depending on the used Image Reader or Image Recorder.
• On Imagers for imaging-diagnosis purposes shown below, images reduced to 98% size will
be output depending on the equipment’s specifications, even though a life-size image output
B has been specified on the Console.
- DRYPIX1000, DRYPIX2000, and DRYPIX3000
(DR images (cassette long-view exposure))
NOTE
• Up to three images can be stitched together.
• Before stitching, check that the order of the images to be stitched are in the correct order.
• Motion compensation can be applied automatically during stitching (however relevant
settings must be adjusted during installation). If motion compensation is applied, an applied
is mark displayed. If an applied mark is displayed, check the compensated image again.
• Exposure field settings may mean trimming may not be conducted properly. In these cases,
adjust the trimming area manually.
B-2 Operation Manual 897N101655B

• Note that changing the exposure conditions of each exposure may result in uneven density
in areas to be stitched.
• Please note that images read from flat panel sensors of different sizes cannot be synthesized
and processed.
(DR images (system long-view exposure))
• This function performs automatic image stitching processing on read images.
Manual image stitching cannot be used for images that have not been processed in this way,
so refer to the “Console Advance Reference Guide (Option)” for steps required for automatic
image stitching.
• To check the exposure result of each source image, select the corresponding image.
• The image sizes that can be stitched are 14” x 14”, 14” x 17”, 17” x 17” and 10” x 12”.
Images other than these sizes cannot be stitched with each other.
• Stitching processing cannot be used for energy subtraction images.
• The settable film-output format is 1-image format only. Other formats cannot be set.
• To use a long-view exposure menu and other exposure menus in the same study, perform
the image stitching for the long-view exposure menu first and then other exposure menus.
• Instruct patient not to move. If excessive movement is detected, image may be misaligned.
• Note that changing the exposure conditions of each exposure may result in uneven density
in areas to be stitched.
• The images exposed by the DR exposure unit are displayed larger than the actual object
size. A function to correct this difference is equipped. For the long-view exposure, the image
is reduced according to the size of the patient positioner and then output (Whether or not to
perform correction varies depending on the setting performed at the time of installation). In
the cases of projection exposure or oblique exposure, the magnification ratio varies
depending on the image area. Note that such a difference is caused as the correction
processing is based on the distance from the center of the panel. Note that this function can
only be used on images read from a unit that can send exposure distance.
Blackening Processing Software

The Blackening Processing Software is designed to darken regions outside of the radiation field (unnecessary white
region) of an image with arbitrary density.
NOTE
• For the darkening, the density set at the time of the image reading is used.
When the density setting is changed, the new setting is not reflected to the already read
images.
• When specifying the darkened region on a stitched image, do not allow it to overlap the joint
marker.

NOTE
• Do not use the medium as an alternative for the storage device such as PACS.
• Purchase the medium that complies with the applicable standards and specifications.
• For long-view images, the Media Storage Software cannot be used.
• Note that both processed and non-processed images cannot be stored in one medium.
• When using a medium, be careful not to lose it by mistake.
• The medium to be used for the Media Storage Software should not be used for other purposes.
• Connect only one medium. If more than two media devices are connected simultaneously, they
may not operate normally.
• It may take some time until you can remove the medium after selecting “Handling end”.Before
removing the medium, make sure that the writing in the medium is completed, that a process
completion message is displayed, and that the media access lamp is not flashing.
Free Layout Print Software

The Free Layout Print Software is designed to lay out multiple images freely.
NOTE
• For the Free Layout Print Software, select studies satisfying the following conditions.
- Studies in the “Waiting QA list” or those already edited
- Completed studies
• When images are printed on a film, patient information of the upper left-hand image is displayed
in the output queue.
• Note that the image quality of printed film varies depending on the size of the laid out images.
• When multiple images are printed on a film, be careful not to misidentify the patient. In addition,
note that if any laid out image is zoomed out excessively, patient information may become invisible.
Furthermore, reading of images on the film should be carried out on user’s own responsibility with
the premise that the image quality varies depending on the displayed image size.
B Precise Enlargement Function Software

The Precise Enlargement Function Software is designed to display the same image as that on the Console screen on
another monitor (hereafter referred to as the “option monitor”) for more detailed image display.
NOTE
• If the Console has failed to start up, the Precise Enlargement Function Software is not activated either.
• If the Precise Enlargement Function Software terminates abnormally, a message appears on the
monitor of the Console. However, the Console can be used continuously. To activate the
Precise Enlargement Function Software again, restart the personal computer.

• All the following conditions must be met to receive order information from an order issuance
device.
- The “Patient Information Input screen” is displayed.
- On-screen operations are not being performed. (For example, a dialog box or pop-up menu is
not displayed.)
• When order information is received, only one study can be started at a time. If more than one
piece of order information is received, studies other than the one registered first are added to the
“Waiting Study list”.
• If the connection between the Console and an order issuance device is in off-line mode, the
study is not started automatically and added to the “Waiting Study list”. To restart the study,
switch to online mode and execute the study from the “Waiting Study list”.
• Up to 12 studies and 48 study menus can be started at the same time.
