• Practice mode
Practice mode enables the user to practice and demonstrate program functions
available on the X-ray unit. In practice mode no radiation is generated when the
exposure button is pressed and there is no connection to a computer. The C-arm will
move normally but no radiation will be generated and no radiation warning signals will
be given, i.e. this is a “dummy run” function for training and demonstration purposes.
For example, users might want to demonstrate the C-arm movements before taking
exposures of children or nervous patients.

use the
