1. Use C or D to scroll through the list of detectors.
When you scroll through the detectors, Z or ™ appears in upper-right corner of
the screen if a connection exists between the Display and the highlighted Detector.
Calibration date, calibration due date, software version, and hardware version for the
highlighted Detector shows below the Detector list.
2. With a Detector highlighted, push A or B to highlight the Connect or Always
Connect button.
3. To make a Detector selection, use C or D to highlight the Detector and push
E .
The TNT 12000 automatically goes to the setup or measurement screen for the connected
Detector. For the subsequent step, go to the manual section for the connected Detector.
To connect to a second Detector, highlight the Setup button and push E in the
MEASUREMENT screen. Navigate to the CONNECTION screen shown in Figure 2-2
to make a second selection.
How to Use the X-ray Detector (TNT 12000WD)
The four operation modes of the X-ray Detector are:
• Radio Mode – used to make measurements on radiographic X-ray machines. Radio
mode measures kVp Average, kVp Maximum, kV PPV, Dose, Average Dose Rate,
Exposure Time, and HVL at the same time from one exposure.
• Mammo Mode – used to make measurements on mammographic X-ray generators.
Mammo mode measures kVp Average, kVp Maximum, kV PPV, Dose, Average
Dose Rate, Exposure Time, and HVL at the same time from one exposure.
• Fluoro Mode – used to make measurements on fluoroscopic X-ray generators. Fluoro
mode can make Continuous fluoro and Pulsed fluoro measurements. Fluoro Mode
measures kVp Average, kVp Maximum, kV PPV, Dose Rate, Accumulated Dose,
Elapsed Time, Pulse Rate (for Pulsed Fluoro only), Pulse Width (for Pulsed Fluoro
only), and HVL.
• Dental Mode – used to make measurements on Dental X-ray generators. Dental mode
measures kVp Average, kVp Maximum, kV PPV, Dose, Average Dose Rate,
Exposure Time, and HVL at the same time from one exposure.
