6.2 Digital Sensor
The I-Max Touch is equipped with two types of digital sensors, depending
on the version:
• Sensor PAN: it is a sensor suitable for Panoramic-type imaging, i.e.
all images with a 14 cm-high field; all Panoramic, TMJ, and Sinus
images belong to this type. Depending on the version, this sensor can
be either movable from the sensor holder, or fixed (not removable) on
the same holder. In case the sensor is fixed to the sensor holder, the
latter cannot be rotated to make free the part where rays go through
for the execution of the cephalometric examination.
• PAN/CEPH sensor: it offers a wider use flexibility, as it can carry out
both Panoramic and Cephalometric-type images. This sensor can
always be removed from its sensor holder's.
The I-Max Touch can also be configured in the "double sensor" version,
where both PAN and PAN/CEPH sensors are present.
The I-Max Touch control system takes care of checking the consistency of
the safety measures that allow for the correct use of the digital sensor; in
particular:
• To prevent the acquisition in case the image management and
processing system is not ready to receive the image itself, by
displaying the message "Sensor not ready"
• To prevent the CEPH exposure in case the PAN sensor is in the CEPH
position, by displaying the message "Sensor not on Ceph"
• To prevent the exposure in case, when a double-sensor system is
present, the PAN sensor holder is not completely open, allowing the
clearing of the X-ray beam path. The message "Open cassette holder"
is displayed.
NOTE:
All sensor types are equipped with a shock detection sensor; this sensor
is also visible from the outside to enable to operator to perform checks.
Possible shocks are displayed by a change in colour (from
transparent/white to red) of this sensor. The digital sensor can still
function correctly also when the colour changes, displaying a fall that
might also not have damaged the sensor.
NOTE:
The fall sensor colour change interrupts the warranty on the sensor.
