Portable and mobile RF communications

part of the CR 120/140 scanner, including
cables, than the recommended separation
distance calculated from the equation
applicable to the frequency of the
transmitter.
Recommended separation distance
d = 1.17 √P
d = 1.17 √P 80 MHz to 800 MHz
d = 2.33 √P 800MHz to 2.5GHz
where P is the maximum output rating of the
transmitter in watts (W) according to the
transmitter manufacture and d is
recommended separation distance in
meters (m).
Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters,
as determined by an electromagnetic site
surveya, should be less than the compliance
level in each frequency range

Interference may occur in the vicinity of
equipment marked with the following

Electromagnetic Immunity for NonLife Supporting Equipment and

a
Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base station for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land
mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with
accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey
should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the CR 120/140 scanner is used
exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the CR 120/140 scanner should be observed to verify normal
operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or
relocating the CR 120/140 scanner.
b
Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 v/m.
Recommended Separation Distance Between Portable and Mobile RF
Communications Equipment and the CR 120/140 Scanner
The CR 120/140 scanner is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which
radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the scanner can help
prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and
mobile RF communication equipment (transmitters) and the scanner as recommended below,
according to the maximum output of the communications equipment.

Using the Scanner
The Kodak Point-of-Care CR 120/140 System is designed for medical
professionals to read phosphor x-ray screens (CR).
The system consists of the Kodak Point-of-Care CR 120/140 scanner and
includes:
• Kodak Quality Control software for Kodak Point-of-Care CR Systems
• Plug and play USB2 interface
• Optional image viewing and archiving software that supports the Digital
Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM)3.0 standard, such
as Kodak Acquisition Software for Kodak Point-of-Care CR Systems
• Optional screens and cassettes in the following standard sizes: 8" x 10";
10" x 12"; 14" x 14"; 14" x 17"; 24 x 30 cm.
Operational Principles
The Kodak Point-of-Care CR 120/140 System is a digital imaging system for
image acquisition and processing of static projection radiography that uses a
phosphor screen with energy storage capability as an x-ray image receptor.
After exposure, a laser beam, which stimulates luminescence proportional to
the local x-ray exposure, reads the screen. The luminescence signal is
digitized and processed.
The Kodak Point-of-Care CR 120/140 scanner enables you to read a screen
quickly and erase it for the next exposure.
