CR 30-X SYSTEM
Main System Configuration
The CR 30-X System has the following configuration:
•the CR 30-X digitizer, a digitizer for image plates retaining latent X-ray
images. The CR 30-X accepts one cassette containing one image plate at a
time.
•NX 1.0 or higher. NX is a CR workstation for image acquisition,
identification, image processing and image transmission of digitized
images received from the digitizer.
•Cassette and plate system: CR MD4.0T General Plate and Cassette.
Optional System Components
Powerware
®
5115 UPS
The main CR 30-X System can be extended with the Powerware®5115
uninterruptible power system (UPS). The UPS is available in two voltage
types:110Vand230V
The Powerware®5115 uninterruptible power system (UPS) protects the PC
when the main power supply has crashed, and avoids the loss of images. UPS
configuration requires special software. This software will be installed and
configured by an Agfa service technician.
With the Powerware®5115, you can safely eliminate the effects of power
disturbances and guard the integrity of your CR 30-X System.
Note: The application is intended to be used for Genrad only, not for
Mammography nor FLFS (Full Leg Full spine).
