Fixed DR Detector (4343R, Pixium RAD 4343) Exposure
Sequence
For using the fixed DR Detector, the temperature difference between
calibration and usage must be within the recommended range of +/-6°C (for
a DR Detector with CsI conversion screen) or +/-10°C (for a DR Detector with
GOS conversion screen). Check the environmental conditions and observe the
warming-up time of the DR Detector.

Modality Settings
Depending on the DR Detector model, modality settings may be specified by
the DR Calibration Tool.
If the DR Calibration Tool does not specify modality settings, refer to following
table.
