The ERRORSTATUSCMD Request is used for retrieving the Generator
Techniques and obtaining Error information. It is also used to verify the
Generator is properly connected and powered ON.
The OpalRad UAI will process any Errors returned and display them to the User.
These Errors are outlined in Table 5.2
GENERATOR PREP:
If the generator enters the PREP state the following command is sent to the
Host:
PREGENCMD Indicates to the host the PREP switch is activated.
When the User depresses the PREP switch, the generator sends a PREGENCMD
to the Host. This will alert the Host that the User is attempting to start the
expose process. The Host will then Display a READY Icon to alert the User that a
2 second x-ray Tube filament heating time is in progress. After 2 seconds the
Icon turns GREEN, indicating to the user that an exposure can be made.
During the PREP and the following XRAY state, the Generator will not accept any
commands and the set Techniques cannot be changed.
GENERATOR XRAY:
During the Exposure process, the following commands are sent to the Host:
XRAYINDCMD Indicates to the Host a X-Ray indicator is to be
displayed.
POSTGENCMD Indicates to the Host an exposure has completed.
When the User proceeds to depress the XRAY switch the generator sends a
XRAYINDCMD to the Host. The Host then displays a X-RAY Icon to indicate to
the User an exposure is in progress.
The Generator will then make an exposure with the Techniques set in the
Generator Idle state.
