There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power Wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the micro-wave range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure of low-level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might occur, but such fi ndings have not been con-fi rmed by additional research. AeroDR detec-tor has been tested and found to comply with FCC/IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guide-lines in Supplement C to OET65 and RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules.••••FCC WARNINGChanges or modifi cations not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.European UnionEuropean Union Directives Conformance StatementThis device is confi rmed Declaration of Confor-mity (DoC) to Directive 1999/5/EC (to R&TTE Directive).

343.2 ● Operation of AeroDR Detector3.2.1 ExposureTo expose X-ray images, check that this device is ready to expose images, and then perform the expo-sure operation using the X-ray exposure device. When the exposure is completed, image is stored in the AeroDR detector and will then be converted to digital data and sent to the CS-7 sequentially. When the data transfer is completed, the exposed image is displayed on the CS-7.   HINTWhen the AeroDR detector is used with a wireless connection, it will enter sleep mode if not used for a long time (you can adjust the time it takes). To recover from the sleep mode, click on the "Sleep re-covery button" on the CS-7 or keep pressed the selection switch on the AeroDR detector for two seconds or more. The AeroDR detector will not go into sleep mode if it is used in a wired connection. 3.2.2AeroDR Detector OrientationWith the AeroDR detector, expose the body part with the white line located at the bottom (portrait) or with the white line located to the right of the upper edge that should be positioned at the top of the image fi eld (landscape).White line at the bottom䃂 When exposing in portrait 䃂When exposing in landscapeWhite line to the right of upper edgeCAUTIONThe white line side faces a patient. ••••3.2.3  Precautions for ExposureHigh-dose exposureWhen high-dose exposures are performed con-tinuously, afterimages of the last exposure will occasionally be visible. Since the infl uence of af-terimages in this device will be solved by leaving longer intervals between exposures, make the intervals between exposures longer than usual when performing high-dose exposure. In high-dose exposure, if you continue to use a marker made of lead in the same position, the afterimage may be burned in. Therefore, avoid using it in the same position. Also, if image burn-in is visible, run gain calibration. Exposure timeThe maximum exposure time for this device is set to 1 second. Even if the exposure time is set to longer than 1 second, reading starts 1 second after X-ray exposure. Therefore, be careful not to set exposure time to longer than 1 second. •••

CAUTIONOnce it is registered in a new radiology room, it will not be usable in the previous radiology room. Perform the registration operation again when returning to a previous radiology room. The AeroDR detector cannot be registered with the charging AeroDR battery charger. 4  Registration is completed when "Registra-tion completed" is displayed on the CS-7. ••••3.4.2 Selecting the AeroDR DetectorThe AeroDR detector to be used is selected as follows depending on the number of reg-istered AeroDR detectors. Number of regis-tered AeroDR detectorsSelection method 1AeroDR detector is selected auto-matically when that AeroDR detector is ready to be selected (there is no problem with the battery, wireless connection, etc.). The AeroDR detector is not selected if it is not inserted into a bucky that matches the order information. MultipleThe AeroDR detector that was selected immediately beforehand will be selected automatically. Also, if there is an AeroDR detector inserted in the bucky that matches the order information, that AeroDR detector will be selected. If there is no AeroDR detector that matches the order information, no AeroDR detector will be selected. To change the selected AeroDR detector to another AeroDR detector, turning the selection switch of the AeroDR detector ON enables manual selection.   HINTA selected AeroDR detector will have its status LED lit (green).The AeroDR detector can also be selected manually from the CS-7. For details, refer to the "CS-7 Operation Manual".••3.4 ● Selection and Registration of AeroDR Detector
383.5 ● Gain CalibrationThe AeroDR detector performs the gain calibration to provide the optimum image by adjusting image quality according to the characteristics of X-ray generator device. The correction data obtained by the gain calibration is saved in the system, and is used for exposure. Also, it is necessary to perform the gain calibration periodically to compensate for chronological change or change in the exposure environment. The gain calibration is performed with the CS-7.

464.2 ●Action to Be Taken When AeroDR Detector Is MalfunctioningWhen the exterior or protective cover is damaged ex-tensively, or in the event of the AeroDR detector being dropped or having shock applied to it, contact Konica Minolta technical representative. 4.3 ● Fixing Problems4.3.1Phenomena or Conditions That Could Be MalfunctionsThe product may be malfunctioning if any of the fol-lowing conditions are applicable. Contact the service personnel to check the corrective action.Problem CauseIt is not getting charged even with the AeroDR I/F Cable connected.If this occurs repeatedly, it could be due to improper contact of the wired connection connector or connection detection function malfunction.The color of the shock sensor attached to side of the AeroDR detector has changed to red. Excessive shock may have been applied to the body.The AeroDR detector is deformed, which can be checked by placing it on a fl at surface and seeing if it does not lay fl at. A problem may have occurred with the installed battery.4.3.2Conditions That Are Not Mal-functions (Corrective Actions)The following conditions are not indicative of a mal-function in the product. Take the appropriate corrective action according to the description.Problem CauseThe connector is warm right after it is charged on a AeroDR battery charger. This is caused by charging and is not a malfunction. Charging takes longer when the battery is over discharged.The power source computer takes time to boot. Please wait. Usage time with the battery has gotten shorter, the number of images that can be exposed has decreased, or the charging time has gotten shorter. It could be that the charging function of the battery has deteriorated. Due to its design, the battery capacity will decrease approximately 60% in 7 years with an average charging of 10 times per day. It can be replaced with a new battery for a fee if necessary.When using wireless communication, it does not connect, wireless communication terminates, or exposure cycle time becomes extended.It is the effect of the wireless communication environment, and not a malfunction. However, if the performance has declined drastically from the time of installation, it is possible that the installation environment has changed. Contact Konica Minolta technical representatives.   HINTProblems with a wireless environment can occur in the following conditions:Installed location of the AeroDR Access Point is not good. When inserted in the bucky or stretcher, the opening in the bucky is too small and there is no passage for the radio waves. The radio waves are not emitted due to metal parts close to the antenna, which changes the antenna characteristics.For exposures where the body touches the AeroDR detector directly, the radio waves are not emitted if the body completely covers the antenna.Other devices use the same radio band, and cause interference.•••••
