tion that operates via wireless LAN.
It is required to abide with the relevant regulations de-
fi ned by the countries in which this device is to be used.
Inappropriate usage may cause interference in the
radio communication. Also, if this device is modi-
fi ed, approval and warranty according to the radio
law of the applicable government will be voided.
It may affect aeronautical systems, so do not use
on-board airplanes.
This device has been confi rmed to comply with the
relevant regulations of the following countries:
•
•
•
•
•
United States & Canada
Federal Communications Commission
Statement / Canadian Department of Com-
munications
This device complies with Part 15 of FCC
Rules and RSS-Gen of IC Rules. Operation
is subject to the following two conditions: (1)
this device may not cause interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference,
including interference that may cause unde-
sired operation of this device.
This transmitter must not be co-located or op-
erated in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
5.15-5.25GHz band is restricted to indoor
operations only.
The available scientific evidence does not
show that any health problems are associ-
ated with using low power wireless devices.
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.

To 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.

3.2.3 Precautions for Exposure
High-dose exposure
When 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 time
The maximum exposure time for this device is
set to 1 second. Even if the exposure time is set

3.4.2 Selecting the AeroDR
Detector
The AeroDR detector to be used is selected
as follows depending on the number of reg-
istered AeroDR detectors.
Number of regis-
tered AeroDR
detectors
Selection method
1
AeroDR 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.
Multiple
The 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.
HINT
A 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".

3.5 ● Gain Calibration
The 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.

4.2 ●
Action to Be Taken When AeroDR
Detector Is Malfunctioning
When 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 Problems
4.3.1
Phenomena or Conditions That
Could Be Malfunctions
The product may be malfunctioning if any of the fol-
lowing conditions are applicable. Contact the service
personnel to check the corrective action.
Problem Cause
It 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.
4.3.2
Conditions 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 Cause
The 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.
HINT
Problems 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.
