Function
- Status LED
- Scanner
The Smart Reader is an RFID reader that connects to a computer via a USB
cable. It reads RFID chips and transmits the read data to software on the
connected computer.
With the Smart Reader and SmartScan, for example, a phosphor storage plate is
assigned to a specific patient via the imaging software.
This allows the phosphor storage plate to be read without a scan job on all
devices in the network that support SmartScan.
5.1 Status LED
Depending on the software used, the status LED displays different colors.
Refer to the relevant descriptions for the status LED in the software used.
5.2 Connections
The connections are located on the rear of the unit.
- USB port (type C)
Requirements
6.1 Installation/setup room
The room chosen for set up should fulfil the following requirements:
– Closed, dry, well-ventilated room
– Should not be a room made for another purpose (e.g., boiler room or wet
cell)
6.2 System requirements
For the system requirements of the computer systems, visit the download area
at www.airtechniques.com (document no. E7201).
Installation
7.1 Setting up the unit
Portable and mobile HF communication appliances can interfere with the
effectiveness of electrical medical devices.
❯ Do not stack the unit next to or together with other appliances.
❯ If, however, this unit is operated next to other units or stacked with other
units, monitor the unit carefully in the configuration selected in order to
ensure normal operation.
❯ Place the unit on a firm, horizontal surface.
7.2 Connecting the unit
Combining devices safely
❯ When connecting the unit to other devices, such as a computer system: make
sure that e.g. the computer, monitor, or printer that is/are connected is/are
compliant with at least the standard IEC 60950‑1 or IEC 62368‑1.
Connecting the unit via the USB port
❯ Plug the supplied USB cable into the USB port of the device.
❯ Connect the USB cable to the computer.
Commissioning and first start-up
NOTICE
Short circuit due to the build-up of condensation
❯ Do not switch on the unit until it has warmed up to room temperature and is
dry.
The unit supports the following imaging programs:
– VisionX made by Air Techniques
Always use the current version of the imaging program in the commissioning of
the device. Check the version of the enclosed imaging program versus the
versions available at www.airtechniques.com.
The device is a so-called ‘plug & play’ device, so it can be used straight
away after connecting it.
Operation
The device scans RFID chips from different sources. Whether or not the scanned
RFID chip can be used depends on whether it is supported and on the devices
and
software used.
9.1 SmartScan
Use SmartScan to assign a phosphor storage plate to a particular patient via
the imaging software. As soon as a phosphor storage plate is assigned to a
patient in the imaging
software, all devices that support SmartScan will change status to “ready for
image acquisition”. Afterwards any phosphor storage plates that were
previously linked to a patient can be scanned on any of these devices in an
arbitrary order. The images are then automatically assigned to this patient by
the imaging software.
SmartScan works with the following imaging programs:
– VisionX made by Air Techniques
