SOFTWARE FEATURES
The purpose of the system software is to control the operation of the Scanner as well as to provide the opportunity to acquire, visualise and process digital X-ray images. To facilitate the work of the operator, a control panel is provided. The panel makes it possible to access all the software features.

GENERAL PURPOSE FUNCTIONS:
·

Password-protected logon.

SELF-TESTING AND PERFORMANCE SUPPORT FUNCTIONS:
·

Automatic self-testing;
·

Displaying messages about operating status of the Scanner;
·

Warming up the X-ray generator (the process can be started both manually and automatically).

HARDWARE CONTROL FUNCTIONS:
·

Controlling the conveyor belt drive, the protective shutter’s drive, the X-ray generator;
·

Automatic changing of generator’s operating modes depending on the scanner idle time;
·

Acquiring data from the X-ray detector;
·

Automatically calibrating the X-ray detector;
·

Turning off the X-ray generator in case of emergency;
·

Indicating X-ray on.

DIGITAL X-RAY IMAGE ACQUISITION, VISUALISATION, AND PROCESSING FUNCTIONS:
·

Acquiring images without additional algorithmic processing;
·

Highlighting optically dense objects;
·

Adjusting contrast of strongly absorbing objects;
·

Inverting images;
·

Performing gamma–correction of images;
·

Optimising the overall contrast: combination of edge enhancement and local contrast enhancement algorithms;
·

Colouring images according to calculated values of atomic numbers of substances which com pose objects under inspection;
·

Colouring substances with atomic numbers from a selected range;
·

Pseudocolouring objects with a possibility of selection of various palettes;
·

Displaying organic objects with atomic numbers equal to 7, 8, and 9;
·

Displaying substances according to a selected range of signal strength;
·

Magnifying one out of nine predefined areas of an image;
·

Zooming images up to 96x;
·

Automatically highlighting suspicious objects (which can be related to drugs, explosives, or arms).

ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS:
·

Saving X-ray images to files;
·

Storing a predefined number of images;
·

Browsing the image archive;
·

Copying images on external storage media (CD/DVD disks and flash-drives);
·

Viewing and copying images from a local area network;
