vTrigger Mode
USER MANUAL
WARNING
WARNING
WARNING
WARNING
The vTrigger mode requires a sufficient X-ray dose rate to the detector
surface to trigger image acquisition. The required dose rate can vary at
different use conditions. The system integrator must evaluate the
vTrigger operation with the complete X-ray setup in order to secure
the proper image acquisition in vTrigger mode.
The external sync mode is the default acquisition mode, and the
detector needs to switch into the vTrigger mode to use. An image may
only be acquired in vTrigger mode once the software has informed the
user that the system is ready.
The vTrigger on-time is limited and should be turned off directly after
acquiring the image. Staying longer in vTrigger mode will reduce the
battery duty cycle.
Do not apply any, handling, loading, mechanical shock, or electronic
noise to the detector while it is in vTrigger mode.

4336Wv4 X-ray Detector
8.0 Description of the PaxScan 4336Wv4
The PaxScan 4336Wv4 detector is a light-weight, wireless detector designed for medical and
veterinary use. The detector together with the Varex Smart Panel (VSP) software is designed for
integration into an X-ray system. The VSP performs all the interface functions with the detector;
such as control, image acquisition and calibration.
The PaxScan 4336Wv4 detector fits standard bucky trays and the wireless communication
enables easy migration between table, above the table, chest stand, and mobile cart physical
applications. The wireless access point is the interface between the detector and the imaging
system and may be mounted in an equipment enclosure, or it may also be wall or ceiling
mounted to maximize wireless signal strength. During operation, the detector is often draped or
bagged to ensure cleanliness and sterilization, and is manipulated such that the detector’s input
window is located near, but on the opposite side of the patient, from the X-ray source. An
additional cable is supplied with the detector to allow for set-up of the wireless interface and to
retrieve images from the detector in case of failed wireless transmission.
Figure 1 shows the configuration of the detector in the context of the typical overall imaging
system.

9.0 Modes of Operation
The purpose of each mode is to configure the detector to achieve optimal performance during
specific imaging procedures. Modes are defined by a combination of factors, such as; cycle time,
integration time, field of view, noise, and pixel binning. Mode definitions are specified by a
configuration files. The configuration file is stored in the detector’s non-volatile memory. Each
mode requires a unique set of calibration files.
The PaxScan 4336Wv4 supports the Radiographic and vTrigger modes of operation see Table 9
for a typical mode example. The sensitivity of the detector is optimized to match the X-ray dose
used in each mode.

4336Wv4 X-ray Detector
9.1 Radiography Mode
Within one exposure, multiple readouts are initiated by Prepare and followed by Trigger. Before
readouts, the detector has an integration period. The integration time is defined by the
configuration file for the current mode. In order to interface with the X-ray generator, two
events, exposure on and exposure off, are delivered to the workstation. The X-ray exposure
must happen between these two events.
One exposed frame is readout immediately after the integration window. The one or two
post-offset frame(s) are readout. The frames are transferred to the workstation as soon as
possible. When all the frames for the exposure are transferred to the workstation, a Transfer End
event is delivered to the workstation.
USER MANUAL

Figure 13 Exposure: Raw Frames
22 www.vareximaging.com
4336Wv4 X-ray Detector
9.2 vTrigger Mode
The vTrigger mode gives the OEM the benefit of not requiring any hardware synchronization
with the generator. The vTrigger acquisition mode utilizes the detector’s hardware to sense
when X-rays are presented to the detector. Once X-rays have been detected, the detector
automatically begins a fixed integration time followed by the image readout.
9.3 Operational States
The operational states of the detector can be categorized as follows:
• Radiography Acquisition: (Radiography-type)
• Offset Calibration: (OEM-initiated)
• Gain Calibration: (always-OEM initiated)
Each operating mode employs all types of calibration. For example, in radiography-type
acquisitions, the PaxScan 4336Wv4 will acquire one frame with its respective offset.

10.0 System Software
The PaxScan 4336Wv4 detector deploys the Varex Smart Panel (VSP) architecture. Detector
software is embedded within the detector and is composed of two parts:
• Software necessary to capture, process, and correct X-ray images.
• The VSP COMM workstation libraries comprise the VSP SDK.
Because the main software is embedded within the detector, the only software required on the
workstation is a small set of DLLs that should be copied from the software package to the
workstation.
The VSP COMM libraries are copied to the workstation. Software interfacing to this detector will
make API calls to these SDK libraries to control the image acquisition process. These libraries
manage connections to the detector and the transfer of files from the detector to the workstation.
USER MANUAL
24 www.vareximaging.com
4336Wv4 X-ray Detector
10.1 X-ray Generator Interface Signals
Normally a set of hardware signals are used to interface between the detector and the X-ray
generator and hand switch. For example, PREP and REQ are two hand switch signals that are
typically used to indicate the user request for an X-ray exposure. Typically PREP (Prepare)
indicates the user’s input that X-ray exposure is imminent, while REQ (Request) indicates the
user’s input for immediate X-ray exposure. In response to the REQ signal, the detector will
indicate the proper time for the X-ray exposure with the EXP_OK (Exposure OK) signal.
To accomplish this task of passing hardware signals to-and-from the detector, the VSP provides
a software version of these signals in the API. For detectors, the workstation software will have
to provide the hardware interface to the X-ray Generator and hand switch and relay those
signals to the various API calls in the VSP library.
10.2 VSP_COMM (SDK) Files
• libvsp.dll
• libvsp-zf.dll
• libwinpthread.dll
USER MANUAL

10.3 Detector Calibration
Detector calibration files are stored inside the detector non-volatile memory. There are three
calibration files per mode: offset, gain, and defects. The calibration files are used for corrections
during image acquisition.
USER MANUAL
10.3.1 Offset Calibration
Offset calibration compensates for fixed pattern pixel intensity variations in the image associated
with the dark current and electronic offsets. The Offset reference image is an average of a series
of frames acquired without X-ray and referred to as dark fields. Prior to acquiring images, an
offset calibration must be performed in each mode. This offset calibration is used for the preview
image.
Note
Note
For interfaces connection, synchronization and timing diagrams information
please reference the Software Interface Specification
FP2032_VarexSmartPanel_SoftwareInterfaceSpecification.pdf.
After a calibration, ensure the new calibration files are used by closing and
re-opening the link to the detector.
• Offset calibration should not be performed during X-ray.
• The X-ray to digital conversion factor does not change because of calibration.

4336Wv4 X-ray Detector
10.3.3 Gain Calibration
To compensate for non-uniformities in the detector, a gain reference image (flat field) is used by
the Corrections module as required to correct all images. The flat field image must be captured
by the Varex Smart Panel (VSP) prior to acquiring images. The process of capturing the flat field
image is known as Gain Calibration.
USER MANUAL
Note
Gain calibration is based upon the linear response of the detector to dose. Normalization is
achieved by applying the flat field image acquired during the Gain calibration to all images
corrected by the VSP. Normalization will fail with pixels that are responding to dose in a
non-linear manner. Pixels responding to dose in a non-linear manner are usually caused by the
saturation of the detector, or a low signal-to-noise ratio.
Note
Flat field images acquired near or exceeding the saturation point will cause normalization
failures with all images acquired until a Gain calibration with the correct dose is performed.
Note
Every time a gain calibration is run, an offset calibration is required
beforehand; this will ensure that the detector is properly calibrated.
It is critical to acquire the flat field image within a range that is large enough
to be higher than the background noise created by the X-ray source and
readout electronics of the detector, but lower than the saturation point of the
detector.
It is recommended that flat field images be acquired with a median count of
approximately 13000 - 14000.
This range will ensure that Gain calibration will meet both the upper and lower dose
requirements under all modes of operation. Dose requirements are determined by the settings of
the generator X-ray source.
To reduce the effects of noise, the average of each pixel in the flat field image is calculated by
accumulating a number of frames into an internal memory buffer, then dividing the sum of each
pixel by the number of frames acquired.
Note
Using larger numbers of calibration frames to capture the flat field image
will result in more accurate calibration.
www.vareximaging.com 29
4336Wv4 X-ray Detector
The number of calibration frames used during Gain and Offset calibrations can be adjusted
under the Mode Settings pull down menu.
The actual number of calibration frames used must be determined solely by the system
integrator depending upon their specific performance requirements.
The general procedure for Gain calibration for all modes is described in Table 10. Detailed
instructions on performing gain calibrations are covered in the ViVA Online help
documentation.
USER MANUAL
Table 10 Gain Calibration - All Modes
Note
Gain calibration requires the production of X-rays and therefore certain
precautions must be taken by the human operator.
Note
We recommend accumulating 32 frames for gain calibration and 8 frames for
offset calibration for optimal image quality.

10.3.4 Radiographic Mode Gain Calibration
Radiography Gain calibration requires an Offset calibration performed prior to collecting the
Flat Field image. Therefore, an Offset Calibration process must be run prior to the Gain
Calibration. X-ray illuminated frames are then offset-corrected and accumulated in the VSP. A
series of accumulated frames equals one radiographic X-ray exposure. Exposures are averaged
to obtain the Flat Field image used by the VSP. The number of exposures acquired can be
selected from the Settings window.

Note
ViVA provides the convenience of automatically running Offset Calibration
as part of the Gain Calibration process.
However, API driven Gain Calibrations do not automatically run Offset
Calibration. OEM Applications should be sure to run Offset Calibration
prior to Gain Calibration.

11.0 Maintenance
In principle, the detector assembly is maintenance-free, however; it is important that all
correction files are regularly updated and used for image processing. In some applications it is
advantageous to update the offset correction file directly before each image.
Although the a-Si detectors are resistant to X-rays they can exhibit degradation over time when
exposed to high X-ray dose environments. Sensitivity and uniformity may change depending on
the weekly exposure duration and X-ray dose. Therefore the pixel correction files should be
checked and compared regularly to determine changes in bad pixels and clusters.
11.1 Cleaning and Disinfecting
The detector is likely to become contaminated during use. The specific material most likely to
become contaminated is the X-ray grade carbon fiber input window and housing.

14.0 Safety
This section describes electromagnetic safety information.
14.1 Electromagnetic Interference
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency (RF) energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to other devices or
may be affected by other equipment in the vicinity. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to other devices or is affected by other equipment, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one
or more of the measures listed in Section 12.0.
This equipment uses wireless LAN (WLAN) radios for transferring images. The WLAN power
levels and antenna configurations have been tested and certified compliant through specific
absorption rate (SAR) limits set by FCC/IC Canada (Less than 1.6W/kG) with separations as
small as 0 cm between the panel antennas and human tissue. While compliant, it is still
recommended to reduce exposure when possible by:
• Positioning subject to be X-rayed away from the antennas (this also helps reduce image
transfer time).
USER MANUAL
• Removing the detector panel promptly when X-ray exposure is complete.

These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic
propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects
and people.
Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations 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 detector is used exceeds
the applicable RF compliance level above, the detector should be observed to
verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional
measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the detector.
Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less
than [V
