3.1 X-RAY ALIGNMENT CHECK

The aim is to check that the X-ray beam is inside the

red demarcation lines;

click on “Start procedure”

12 2D/3D OPT E.L. CALIBRATION MANUAL EN

 hyperion X5 2D/3D

Remove any object between source and sensor and

press “Start”

Press the button when prompted.

Upper part Lower part

Check that the entire length of the X-ray beam is cen-
tred inside the red lines (compare with the following
images), in particular concerning rotation, horizontal
alignment and vertical alignment.

If adjustments are necessary, open the generator co-

ver and operate on the collimator as follows:

EN 2D/3D OPT E.L. CALIBRATION MANUAL 13

hyperion X5 2D/3D

• Rotation

If the X-ray beam is turned, open the monobloc cover

and slightly loosen the following screws (A, B,C):

Correct the rotation manually; tighten the screws, se-

lect “Image not centred” and press “ok”.

Repeat the procedure until a perfectly vertical image

is obtained.

14 2D/3D OPT E.L. CALIBRATION MANUAL EN

 hyperion X5 2D/3D

• Horizontal alignment

Slightly loosen the following screws (D, E):

Correct the horizontal alignment manually; tighten the

screws, select “Image not centred” and press “ok”.

Repeat the procedure until a horizontally-centred ima-

ge is obtained.

EN 2D/3D OPT E.L. CALIBRATION MANUAL 15

hyperion X5 2D/3D

• Vertical alignment

Slightly loosen the following screws (F, G, H, I).

Correct the vertical alignment manually; tighten the

screws, select “Image not centred” and press “ok”.

Repeat the procedure until a vertically-centred image

is obtained.

When the image is perfectly centred, select “Image

centred” and press OK; the software will automatically
check the proper alignment even for the Bitewing and
Children panoramic positions.

At the end of the procedure, press Ok to confirm and

save the data.

3.2 SENSOR CALIBRATION CHECK

Press “Start procedure” and make sure that any object

between source and sensor has been removed.

The procedure is automatic; just press the X-ray but-

ton when required; at the end, save the data.

3.3 VERIFYING THE MECHANICAL CENTERING

Remove bite, chinrest and aluminium filter and posi-

tion the calibration phantom as shown in the figure.

Click on “Acquire”.

The calibration tool will acquire a complete panora-

mic image and will display it; make sure that the fo-
cus is centred with respect to the series of circles in
the middle of the image, i.e. the number of off-focus
circles must be the same both above and below the
median horizontal line.

18 2D/3D OPT E.L. CALIBRATION MANUAL EN

 hyperion X5 2D/3D

To correct the positioning of the vertical line, adjust

the highlighted grub screws and screws (placed in the
lower part of the kinematic mechanism – remove the
accessory drawer to see them).

If the image obtained is similar to the following one,

adjust the left-hand screw and grub screw; slightly lo-
osen screw B and tighten grub screw A (some strength
is necessary) to modify the position of the chinrest.

Vice versa, if the image is similar to the following one,

adjust the right-hand screw and grub screw.

At the end of each adjustment, press “Retry” to acqui-

re a new image and assess it; if necessary, repeat the
operation until an image similar to the following one
is obtained.

To change the image focus position, modify the value

contained in the “offset Y” field, confirm by means of
the arrow and press “Retry” in the dialog box in the
foreground.

At the end of the procedure, when the focus is centred

and the line is perfectly vertical, press “OK” to confirm
and save the data.

3.4 LASER CALIBRATION

Position the laser reference template on the support

(as shown in the figure)

Press “Start calibration”

20 2D/3D OPT E.L. CALIBRATION MANUAL EN

 hyperion X5 2D/3D

The machine will turn automatically until it has rea-

ched the right position; assess the alignment betwe-
en the three laser beams (midsagittal, canine and
Frankfurt plane) and the references on the template.

If one or more lasers are not aligned, use a gripper to

loosen the springs of the corresponding supports and
adjust them manually; the Frankfurt plane laser and
the canine laser are inside the generator block.

The midsagittal laser is under the mirror.

At the end, press “Exit”.

tick “Enable manual tuning”.

During this procedure, collimator horizontal position

must be adjusted for the different available types of
view.

The aim of the procedure is to make the area hit by the

rays (in grey) match with the green box delimiting the
view field. In addition, the shadow area at the edges
must be within the red lines (see next image).

Before continuing, make sure that the scan area is

free from any object.

• DIAMETER 10

• Select the 10x10 field, enter the values -3 and -7
inside the “Left” and “Right” fields, then press “Move”.

Enter the 8 and 10 values in the mA and time fields,

then press “Acquisition” to perform a ray acquisition.

rows under the “left” and “right” fields, press “move”
and acquire a new image; repeat this procedure until
an image like the following oneis acquired

where you can distinguish the black colour on the side

edges. Slightly “open” collimators to get a uniform
grey image again.

Once finished, press “Save” to save the new setting.

Then, select and save also for the following view

the “Left” and “Right” fields and press “move”. As soon
as the machine is ready, perform a new acquisition (8
mA and 20 ms).

Evaluate the image quality and, if necessary, change

collimator position until obtaining an image like the fol-
lowing one (...)

Once finished, press “Save” to save the new setting.

Then, select and save also for the following view

fields:

then “Start”.

EN 2D/3D OPT E.L. CALIBRATION MANUAL 29

hyperion X5 2D/3D

As indicated by the software, some automatic expo-

sures will be performed; before continuing, make sure
that nobody is present in the room and that the scan
area is free.

The procedure, fully automatic, lasts approx. five mi-

nutes. Once finished, the blank acquisition window
will be displayed.

In this case as well, some automatic exposures will be

performed; once procedure is completed, make sure
that the final image is uniform. Then press “Close”.

From RYS main menu, select “Scan” and “Mattarel-

lum acquisition”

Position Tin on octagonal plate, as shown in the figu-

re, then press “XRay Flash”

Press rays button when prompted; the system acqui-

res the first scout to check cylinder positioning. Make
sure that the image is similar to the next one, and that
there are no error messages about a wrong Tin posi-
tioning.

4.4 QA PHANTOM ACQUISITION (OPTIONAL)

From RYS main menu, select “scan” and “QA Phan-

tom scan”

Position phantom on the octagonal plate, as shown in

the figure (positioning is not that important, as it has a
central symmetry).

From scout acquisition window, click on “X-ray Flash”

and press the rays button when prompted.

34 2D/3D OPT E.L. CALIBRATION MANUAL EN

 hyperion X5 2D/3D

Evaluate phantom position; if necessary, correct the

side position to reach a position similar to the one
shown in the figure.

Press CTRL, click the image with the left mouse but-
ton and move it (keeping both keys pressed). Once
the desired position has been reached, release mou-
se button and wait for the Software to warn you to
release also the CTRL button. Once finished, press
the rays button when prompted; the system acquires
a new scout to evaluate the new position.

To confirm the correct position, press “Next”,

then press “X-ray Flash”.

The front scout is acquired, no corrections are nee-

ded.

Press “Next”, then press “Start”.

Press the rays button when prompted. The system

EN 2D/3D OPT E.L. CALIBRATION MANUAL 35

hyperion X5 2D/3D

performs a complete acquisition of the QA phantom;

once finished, when system prompts you to continue
the analysis, press “Yes”.

The calculations are made automatically; once fini-

shed, a report like the one shown in the figure will be
displayed:

If no value has asterisks, close the window; should

this not be the case, check QA phantom positioning
and repeat the procedure.
