2.2.8 Installation of the ACR-2000 Eraser
Remove the ACR-2000 Eraser from its container. The ACR-2000 Eraser provides the means to return an
exposed phosphor plate to its ground state and ready for the next patients exam. The eraser can be
mounted on the wall by following the separate and included instructions or can be placed on a desktop near
an AC outlet.
2.3 Driver Installation
To operate, the LUMISCAN ACR-2000 READER software requires you to have WinNT 4.0 installed
on your PC and at least 2.0 megabytes of hard disk space available for the creation of a directory and
transfer of files from the floppy installation disk. Additional disk space will be required to save digitized
images on the disk. Most plates require 2.5 to 10.5 Mbytes of disk space to store the digital image,
depending on the plate size and scanning resolution. (low quality 1K or high quality 2K)
The LUMISCAN ACR-2000 READER comes configured with an ISA interface. Lumisys provides
host computer support software for the LUMISCAN ACR-2000 READER configured with the ISA
interface.
2.3.1 Correction LUT Files
The Windows NT LSDT driver automatically loads a Correction LUT (CLUT) file during the driver
loading process. When shipped from the factory, this file is named CLTXXXXX.DAT where
XXXXX is the serial number of the reader the Correction LUT file pertains to. The CLUT file is
shipped on the distribution floppy disk. This file is used to calibrate the associated reader and should
be used with that reader only.
The CLUT file must be in a specific directory and its name must be specified in the LSDT section of
the Registry. Since the file name is specified, multiple CLUT files may be stored in the same
directory. See detailed installation instructions below.
2.3.2 DOS, Windows 3.x and Windows 95 and Windows 98 Driver Installation
To install the software, place the floppy distribution disk in drive A. From a MS-DOS prompt type
"a:install" and then follow the instructions. The installation software will create a directory on the
hard disk and transfer the required software from the floppy disk to the hard disk.
Copy the CLUT file (CLTXXXXX.DAT) from the floppy data disk into the root directory, C:\. Be
sure to remove any and all other CLUT files from the root. They can be stored elsewhere, just not in
the root.
Copy the CAL file (CALXXXXX.DAT) from the floppy data disk into the root directory, C:\. Be
sure to remove any and all other CAL files from the root. They can be stored elsewhere, just not in
the root.
