PARAMETERS
DEFINITIONS
Exposure time is measured from start trig until the signal drops below 25% of max (HF/DC), or
from the first pulse that has a peak above 25% of max until the last time the signal drops below
25% of max (AC).
All recorded samples are used to calculate dose and HVL.
Dose rate is (dose)/(exposure time).
kVp is calculated from 5 ms after trig until the signal drops below 75% of peak (HF/DC), or from
pulses with a peak signal level above 75% of maximum (AC).
LED INDICATION
Unfors ThinX Intra has three LED:s. Normal state is an idle blink every fourth second.
• Green Idle blink: The instrument is ready to use.
Intense blink: An exposure has been recorded..
•Yellow Replace the battery. 100 exposures left.
•Red Idle blink: Replace the battery. No further measurements are allowed.
Intense blink: An error has occurred. See details on display.
DISPLAY MESSAGES
Exposure error message Action
Low signal Increase dose, dose rate or kV.
High signal Decrease dose, dose rate or kV.
Radiation during calculation Wait longer between exposures or make the time be-
tween pulses shorter than 375 ms.
Total filtration > specification Decrease the amount of filtration.
Time < 10 ms Increase exposure time.
Time > 10 s Decrease exposure time.
Dose < 20 µGy (2.3 mR) Increase dose.
Dose > 999 mGy (114 R) Decrease dose.
Dose rate < 0.1 mGy/s (0.7 R/min) Increase the dose rate.
Dose rate > 100 mGy/s (685 R/min) Decrease the dose rate.
Number of pulses < 3 for kVp Increase the number of pulses to make an AC kVp
calculation.
kVp < 45 kVp Increase kVp.
kVp > 100 kVp Decrease kVp.
Number of pulses > 999 Decrease the number of pulses.
Information message Action
Battery low. 100 exposures left. Replace the battery.
Battery low. Replace battery. Replace the battery immediately. No further
measurements allowed.
