RaySafe Solo - Manual (Page 22)

mA/mAs MeASUReMent
NOTE! It is possible to measure mAs simultaneously with other measurements with RaySafe Solo
R/F. The instrument will trig on radiation, not on the current in the RaySafe mAs cable. Any
initial rush current will thus be excluded. The measured mAs value automatically appears in
MEASURE MODE on the display.
1. turn off the X-ray generator.
2. Remove the jumper of the mA/mAs port in the generator.
3. Connect the black and red banana plugs of the RaySafe mAs cable to the mA/mAs port of the generator.
(note! the mA/mAs instrument is dependent on the polarity. Using the wrong polarity will result in no trig.)
4. Switch on the X-ray generator.
5. turn on the RaySafe Solo and select mA/mAs in the SENSOR MENU. Make an exposure and read the
measurements in the display.
CAUTION! Do not forget to replace the mA/mAs jumper when removing the RaySafe mAs cable.
CAUTION! Users of the RaySafe mA/mAs meter must be aware of the potential damage to generators
and electrical human hazards in case of improper connection or failure of any part of the
meter circuit. This feature is intended for use only by personnel authorized in performing
calibration and repair of X-ray equipment.
