DIN Test Service
NOTE: This service is available only for Dome Ex, Dome GX4MP, and Dome Sx displays.
The DIN Test service offers both the DIN Acceptance Test and the DIN Constancy Test. Run
the acceptance test first, then run the constancy test periodically (as required) to validate
the display based on the acceptance test results.
Complete this German standard (DIN 6868-57) test for measuring the performance of
medical imaging devices. Any Dome display must meet the criteria for satisfactory operation
before the device can be used in a healthcare environment.
During setup, identify the photometer to use with this service and the medical image to
use in the acceptance test. Run the DIN Acceptance Test as required to satisfy local testing
standards. Run the DIN Constancy Test for display validation. Both tests are executed via
wizards.
You need a photometer to take luminance measurements on Dome Ex, Dome GX4MP, and
Dome Sx display. The acceptance test supports these photometers:
• Wellhofer LXplus
• Minolta LS-100
A supported photometer is able to automatically transfer measurements to the DIN
Acceptance Test software. You can use other photometers that meet the requirements of
a DIN evaluation, but you must manually enter measurement values as part of each
procedure requiring a photometer.
Recent enhancements allow you to specify reporting in German, include color visual tests
with the DIN Constancy function, and store test reports as RTF files.
