repaired. Do not try to use the system if system calibration is not performed.
Before exposure
- Be sure to check the equipment daily and confirm that it works properly.
- Sudden heating the room in clod area will cause condensation to form on the equipment. In this case, wait
until the condensation evaproates before performing an exposure. If the equipment is used while the
condensation formed on it, problems may occur in the quality of captureed image. When an air-conditioner
is used, be sure to raise/lower the temperature gradually so that a difference in temperature in the room and
in the equipment does not occur, to prevent condensation.
During exposure
- Do not use the selected frequency chanel for other wireless device. Mutual interference may affect the
image data transmission rate.
- Do not use the detector near devices generating a strong magnetic field. Doing so may produce image
noise or artifacts.

EVS 3643 User’s Manual 2. Introduction
The EVS 3643 Wireless is advanced wireless digital radiographic equipment in the DRTECH Exprimer series.
This equipment is designed to provide the highest resolution and sensitivity in the series. In addition, the
wireless LAN (IEEE 802.11n*) communication feature improves the operability, and high-speed processing.
2-1. Features
- Wireless LAN communication (IEEE 802.11n*) includes a lightweight and thin detector that is easy to handle.
- The shape of the detector, which is identical to that of a conventional film cassette complying with ISO4090,
enables digital radiography in the existing analog radiography configuration
- The new sensor with 140 μm of pixel pitch and CsI (Cesium Iodide) used for the scintillator produces high
resolution (approx. 7.86 Mega pixels) digital images within the effective imaging area (358 x 430 mm) with
low doses of X-rays
- Depending on the operating conditions at each site, the wiring unit (optional) enables the equipment to be
used through expansion to a wired connection
- At the time of installation, set a specific channel in the frequency band of 5.0 GHz before using the LAN.
Note that the available frequency band for this standard varies, depending on the local radio laws,
regulations and system requirements.
2-2. Intended use
- The EVS 3643 Digital X-ray detector is indicated for digital imaging solution designed for providing general
radiographic diagnosis of human anatomy. This device is intended to replace film or screen based
radiographic systems in all general purpose diagnostic procedures. This device is not intended for
mammography applications

EVS 3643 User’s Manual 2. Introduction
2-3. System Configuration
Generally, the EVS 3643 detector is used in system configuration as illustrated below:
Figure 2.1 EVS 3643 system configuration
Wireless communication is established between the EVS 3643 Wireless detector and System Control Unit. The
EVS-3643 system is compliant with IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n (2.4 ㎓ / 5 ㎓). The available frequency band may vary
depending on local radio laws and system requirements. Consult your local dealer for the frequency available in
your area.
- Use of multiple WLAN devices within the same frequency band may interference with
each wireless communication and cause a decline in transmission speed
- Do not cover or block the wireless module of the detector. Otherwise, the
transmission speed or operable distance may be reduced.
- Recommended maximum operating distance of wireless communication between the
detector and system synchronization unit is 8 meters.

Conduct examination
For details about operation, refer to the Operation Manual for the ECali1.
i) Select the patient information or protocols on the
screen and start the examination.
EVS 3643 User’s Manual
The READY lamp flashes during preparation
for examinations.
The READY lamp lights up when the
detector and EConsole1 change to
exposure ready status.
• Arrange the patient in the correct posture and position the detector aligning it with the target body part.
• Position the X-ray generator to adjust the exposure field.
• Check all conditions before exposure.
Make sure that four LED lamps (POWER, READY, LINK, AP) are lit. This means that the system is
ready to start an examination
A communication error has occurred when two or more lamps flash.
5. Operating procedure
When the READY lamp (green color) flashes slowly, the detector is in detector selection status
(Sleep).
The detector enters detector selection status automatically when it has not been used for a certain
period of time.
ii) Press the exposure switch of the X-ray generator.
Images captured with the detector are transmitted to
the EConsole1 and appear on the monitor.
• Check the images on the monitor.
• If any uncompleted protocols remain, repeat the
procedure ii).
ii) Click the button for ending the examination
images are stored automatically
• To conduct examination for another patient, repeat the step 3.
IMPORTANT
Sterilize the portion of the detector that has been in contact
with a patient to prevent infection

6-4. Wiring connections
The EVS 3643 detector has a cable connector. With the wiring unit (optional), it is possible to expand from
a wireless configuration to a wired configuration (see the figure below). Wired configuration is suitable for
use where the detector is set in a Bucky stand and table in place of a film cassette. In this configuration, for
the reason that data communication and power supply are made via a cable, users do not have to be
concerned about power and wireless communication failure. This reduces the time and labor involved in
charging and replacing.
