Parameter adjustment keys
Press the SELECT key briefly to select the parameter -
kV, mA, exposure time or density - to be changed. When
the parameter value is flashing on the display, the
parameter can be changed with the parameter adjustment
keys. The up key increases the value and the down key
decreases it.
After adjusting the kV or mA value or exposure time the
unit will return automatically to the time adjustment mode
after 5 seconds time.
Ready indicator light
The green ready indicator light will come on when the unit
is ready to take an exposure. The waiting time between

In the programming mode the ready light will start to flash.
NOTE Planmeca Intra with Dixi3 system:
You can set the unit so that the Ready indicator light
will only come on when the Dimaxis program is ready

appears on the computer screen. To change the
settings of the unit contact your Planmeca technical
support.
