a. Conducted Emission
The AMN placed 0,8 m from the boundary of the unit under test and bonded to a
ground reference plane. This distance was between the closest points of the AMN and the EUT.
All other units of the EUT and associated equipment were at least 0,8 m from the AMN. All power was
connected to the system through Artificial Mains Network (AMN). Conducted voltage measurements on
mains lines were made at the output of the AMN.

b. Radiated Emission
Measurements were made in a 10-meter semi-anechoic chamber or Open Area Test Site that
complies to CISPR 16. Preliminary (peak) measurements were performed at an antenna to EUT
separation distance of 10 meter. The EUT was rotated 360° about its azimuth with the receive antenna
located at various heights in horizontal and vertical polarities. Final measurements (quasi-peak) were
then performed by rotating the EUT 360° and adjusting the receive antenna height from 1 to 4 m. All
frequencies were investigated in both horizontal and vertical antenna polarity, where applicable.

c. Harmonic Current
This test consists on the measurement of harmonics components of the input current which may be
produced by equipment having an input current up to and including 16 A per phase, and intended to
be connected to public low-voltage distribution systems. The equipment is tested under specified
conditions of operation.

3) Charging Precautions
Charge was 1.5 m of outside the Patient Environment to Medically used room.

※ Caution ※
1.5m-access areas outside the charge to the patient.

4) Battery Use Cycles

Batteries wear down with use. Old batteries must be recharged more often. When the length of time
a battery could function after each charging has shrunk to half or less compared to when the battery
was new, it is time to replace the battery.
When storing batteries for extended periods of time, charge them before storing.

(Remove these batteries if equipment is not likely to be used for some time)

※ Information ※
When device is not in use for extended periods of time, the battery should
be stored only after being completely charged, and should be recharged
every 6 months to slow the degradation process.

REXTAR-X Manual PN# 100304-00 Rev.02 Page:37

*Zone of Significant Occupancy Supplemental Pages
Rextar X requires the presence of an operator, with at least one significant zone of occupancy with a
floor not smaller than 60 × 60 cm wide, and not shorter than 200 cm height, including the logical information
as follow.

1) The type of radio examinations the significant zone of occupancy is only designated to be used for its main
purpose.
2) Location of the significant zone of occupancy includes the positions of its boundaries, and is relative to the
clearly recognizable features of the X-ray equipment.
3) Identity of the removable protective devices for use with X-ray equipment and information on their
application and use.

P. 37A
 Radiation Safety
• This x-ray device may be dangerous to operator, patient and bystander unless safe
exposure factors, operating instructions and maintenance schedules are observed.
• Do not operate if the backscatter shield or collimator cone are broken!

1) Ensure proper registration and compliance with any such regulation.

2) In implementing a radiation protection program, please consult any state, provincial, and local regulations
governing radiation protection and the use of x-ray equipment.
3) Operator must follow all applicable regulatory guidelines and in-house radiation protection program in
regard to patients and operators who are pregnant or expect to become pregnant.
4) Operators must be fully acquainted with industry safety recommendations and established maximum
permissible doses.
5) Optimal operator radiation backscatter protection exists when:
- the backscatter shield is positioned at the outer end of the collimator cone,
- the backscatter shield is parallel to the operator,
- the backscatter shield is close to the patient,
- the patient tilts their head when needed to accommodate exposures, and
- the operator remains within the Significant Zone of Occupancy immediately behind the device shield.

Incorrect placement

Correct placement

6) Do not enable Rextar X until patient and operator are positioned and ready for the exposure,
reducing the likelihood of interruption and preventing inadvertent exposure of anyone to x-rays.
7) Do not attempt an exposure if anyone else is positioned immediately behind the patient (in line with the
direction of x-ray emission). If others are assisting, then they should wear protective covering.
P.37B
8) When selecting and using Position Indicating Devices (PIDs), preference should be given to models that
allow the backscatter shield to remain at the outer end of the collimator cone for maximum operator
protection. For example, a Rinn-style positioner with a shortened rod is one solution.
9) An exposure can be terminated for any reason by abruptly releasing the depressed trigger (for more
information, see Section 6.5. X-ray Exposure).
10) As shown in the table below, maximum protection (white area) from backscatter radiation (red area) exists
when the Rextar X is positioned near the patient, is perpendicular to the operator (with the patient’s
head tilted if needed), and the backscatter shield is fully extended toward the patient and parallel to the
operator.
Maximum
Reduced Protection
Protection
Proper positioning Device held back Non-perpendicular

11) Operation outside the protection zone (or with a diminished protective zone) requires proper precautions
such as the use of lead aprons.
12) Do not use low class image detectors.

1. Basic Instruction

1) Outline
When there is a change in X-ray output in initial use or during use, you can control output value with
Calibration.

※ WARNING※
Always keep in mind that calibration must be handled by a
Skilled technician

2) Control Range
REXTAR-X has fixed output with 70kV / 2mA.
kV and mA are not controllable. Only Filament preheat is controllable.
Is it only when mA output is changed within ±10% suddenly to control Filament preheat.

3) How to calibrate
- Measuring instrument : Digital Oscilloscope
- Measuring Point : IP(mA) Feedback points of REXTAR-X DRV Board
◈ DRV Board - TP110(Black) : GND
◈ DRV Board - TP112(Red) : IP(mA) Feedback

< Pic3.1.3.1 REXTAR-X LCD DRV Board Measuring Point >

- How to check Digital Oscilloscope : mA is fixed so 2mA will come out.

- mA Feedback is calculated 1mA as 1V output. Therefore, 2V should come out in mA.

< Pic3.1.3.2 Normal mA output waveform >

- mA waveform when Filament is abnormal : when there is a problem in Filament, and mA is low ,
Filament preheat control is needed.
(If mA output is high, it means device problem, so inquire A/S )

- How to calibrate mA when Filament is abnormal : Control Filament Preheat value with VR1
*DRV Baord - VR101 : Volume Resistor 200Ω

< Pic3.1.3.4 Filament calibration Volume Resistor location>

- How to calibrate with VR101

*You can check VR output by moving slowly with 1~10 degree in CW, CCW.

- 1 ~ 10 degree CW Default + 1 ~ 10 degree CCW

< Pic3.1.3.5 Filament calibration Volume Resistor control >

① In case of CCW, Filament preheat value is high and mA will increase.

② In case of CW, Filament preheat value is low and mA will decrease.

③ You need to control optimal mA output by calibrating Filament preheat.

④ After calibration, check mA output is normal referring to 3) How to calibrate.

- Notice for Calibration

◈ Below table is normal mA output waveform after control completion.
◈ As Filament preheat value is high, Overshoot also increases. Therefore, when you control it,
you should Check Overshoot value and proceed Final control.
Overshoot scope should be within +30% of rating output.
