DEC target value: Touch the arrow buttons in the
DEC target value field to adjust the
setting for DEC (Dynamic Exposure Control) target value. DEC target value is
expressed in percentage in comparison to DEC calibration value. The setting can be
adjusted between 50% (lower exposure values -> brighter image) and 200% (higher
exposure values -> darker image). The recommended setting is 100% (default value).
NOTE
DEC target value will be shown on the Program presets (P2200) display only if DEC has
been activated on the
Program licences (P2100) display.
Lateral TMJ default angle: Touch the arrow buttons in the
Lateral TMJ default angle
field to adjust the setting. The factory default imaging angle for lateral exposures is 17
degrees.
TMJ 2/2 shift: Touch the arrow buttons in the
TMJ 2/2 shift field to adjust the setting
for the automatic shift. The setting determines the imaging position for the second
(2/2) exposure in Double lateral and Double PA TMJ programs. The shift can be
adjusted between -15 mm and 0 mm. The factory default setting is -10 mm, i.e. the
imaging position will move 10 mm forward for the open jaw exposure (2/2).
