The SG80/120 may operate with an Ion Chamber Detector. For further information about the op-
eration of the Ion Chamber Detector, see generator service and operating manuals or automatic
exposure control operating manual.
The three field pattern on the front panel of the SG80/120 corresponds to the three detection ar-
eas for the Ion Chamber Detector.
4.5 ALIGNMENT
It is important that the X-Ray tube is accurately centred with the Bucky transversely. If the align-
ment is not accurate, density cut-off at the edges of the film and appearance of grid patterns may be
found.
The alignment is not critical when an anti-diffusion grid is used. In this case, tilted tube techniques
may be used without undue cut-off.
The cassette tray handle is marked to indicate the vertical centre of the
bucky. To assure that the bucky is vertically aligned with the X-ray beam,
move the bucky, or the tube, in order that the collimator light is aligned
