Simulation Mode
Any of the imaging device acquisition windows can be opened in “simulation mode.”
In this mode, an acquisition window will open and the controls will appear active, but
instead of capturing real images, the window will create “dummy” images of
manufactured data.
You do not need to be connected to an imaging device to open a simulated acquisition
window. This is useful for demonstration purposes or practice scans.
To enter simulation mode, hold down the Ctrl key and select the name of the device
from the File menu. The title of the GS-800 acquisition window will indicate that it is
simulated.
Note: There is no simulated calibration for densitometers.
F.1 GS-800 Acquisition Window
To begin acquiring images, go to the File menu and select GS-800. The acquisition
window for the densitometer will open, displaying a control panel and a scanning
window.
