14 PROGRAMMING THE EXPOSURE VALUES
14.1 Programming the default exposure and density values
Programming the default exposure values
The default exposure values can be programmed for both
the adult and child mode. The indicator light of the
selected projection will come on. The current exposure
values are shown on the time, kV and mA displays.
NOTE Make sure that no exposure region is selected, i.e. no
preprogrammed setting indicator light is on.
NOTE The exposure parameters - time, kV and mA - are pro-
grammed corresponding to the density value 0. The
time value will be automatically changed according to
the selected density value in the film-based imaging
mode, in the digital imaging mode and in the phos-
phoric mode when you exit the programming mode.
Press and hold down the SELECT key (about 4 seconds)
until you have heard a signal tone to enter the
programming mode.
The imaging mode can be changed by pressing the
MODE key briefly.
The ready light will start to flash. The time display will start
to flash and the default exposure values will appear on the
displays.
The exposure time value is changed with the parameter
adjustment keys. The exposure times are shown in
section 17.1 “Exposure values for speed F films” on page
44.
Press the SELECT key briefly, the kV display will start to
flash and the exposure time value is stored in the
memory.
The kV value can now be changed with the parameter
adjustment keys.
