Topic Objectives – Correctly perform a warm-up exposure for the table detector. – Identify the key hardware features on the Luminos Agile system. Today is a full work schedule and review: – Describe the four steps of the workflow. • Patient imaging – continued – • PEX Editor–modify exam protocols – continued • Switching On/Start-Up Questions • The Luminos Agile is started from the switched off mode. • The X-ray room and Fluorospot Compact are switched on and off by the same switch. Starting the System from Notes the Powered-down State Change this text to read “If the Luminos Agile has been switched off for an extended period of time at the main circuit breaker, the detector requires a warm-up time between 60 and 120 minutes to achieve optimal image quality. Image \acquisition is possible but reduced image quality may occur. Caution • Switch the main circuit breaker in the room ON. • Press the ON button on the generator ON/OFF console. The system performs a self-test of the Fluorospot Compact – and Luminos Agile systems. • System Reboot. Press the OFF button on the console. – When the Fluorospot Compact has shut down – (dark monitor), press the ON button. A daily reboot of the system is recommended. Key Hardware Features Overview This section will discuss key hardware features of the Luminos Agile system. Emergency Stop • All system movements and release of radiation are disabled. Emergency Stop Reset • Turn Emergency Stop button clockwise and release. System movements and release of radiation are now enabled. All of these functions are allowed only when the button is depressed. Releasing the button stops the function.
