WARNING
Do not modify or alter the X-ray Detector, its components, or
accessories. Ignoring this warning may result in explosion, fire, or
electric shock, which may result in severe personal injury, death, or
substantial product damage.
WARNING The detector is not intended to be used as a primary barrier to X-rays.
The user is responsible for ensuring the safety of the operators,
bystanders, and the subjects being X-rayed.
WARNING The detector is not designed to control X-ray dose. The system
integrator is responsible for controlling the X-ray radiation.
WARNING Operating the detector using X-ray energies above 225kV without
additional external shielding will damage the internal electronics.
WARNING The detector’s active imaging area has a lifetime X-ray radiation
exposure limit of approximately 1MRad.
Caution
Do not operate the X-ray Detector in a location with the following
conditions:
•Close to fluid or places where fluid is used
•Close to heat sources, such as a heater
•High temperature environment
•High humidity environment
•High condensation environment
•Extreme cold environment
•Dusty environment
•Salty or sulfurous environment
•Near a vibrating environment
•Environment where there is insufficient air circulation to enable the X-ray
Detector and power supply to dissipate heat
Ignoring this caution may result in personal injury or damage to
the product.
Caution Monitor the temperature of the X-ray Detector, and allow the detector
to cool down when the temperature of the detector gets hot. Ignoring
this caution may result in personal injury or damage to the product.

Interface and Power Supply and Cables
Caution See “Section 8.7, Environmental Considerations” on page 17 for
temperature and humidity levels. This may necessitate air flow over
the back surface of the detector.
Caution An Image Quality Test or Customer Acceptance test should be
performed before the detector is used for the first time.
Note The detector is designed to be integrated into a complete X-ray system
by a qualified system integrator.
WARNING
Be sure to turn OFF the power of the X-ray Detector, including turning
off the power supply before servicing, maintaining, connecting, or
disconnecting the cables or accessories.
Do not touch the power supply, X-ray Detector, cable, connector, or
any other electrical component or equipment with wet hands. Ignoring
this warning may cause electrical shock, which may result in severe
personal injury, death, or substantial product damage.
WARNING Disconnect the cables by pulling on the connector and not the cable

8.0 Description of the Detectors
The detectors described in this user manual incorporate Gigabit Ethernet data communication,
operate at lower power levels, and with improved cycle time. These detectors are specifically
designed to meet the needs of industrial applications utilizing multiple sensitivity ranges. They
acquire images at usual video frame rates over a wide range of dose.
Raw data is normalized for offset and gain variations pixel-by-pixel by the Virtual Command
Processor (VCP) software that comes with the detector. The VCP performs all the interface
functions with the detector such as control, image acquisition and calibration. The VCP also
interpolates the value of any pixels identified as defective. A single-output power supply
provides all the power required for the detector.
VCP software controls the detector operation through Ethernet. System integrators receive a
library of functions for image acquisition and calibration.
Figure 1 displays a customer system showing the configuration of a detector in the context of the
overall imaging system.
