Thanks to Siemens engineers for their technical support.

Recently, Siemens updated the methods for retrieving preprocessing images for different DR models. The editor will introduce the methods and steps for retrieving preprocessing images for different Siemens DR models in three articles.

The three articles correspond to:

(1) YSIO, Multix Fusion, Multix Select DR series models

(2) YSIO MAX, Multix Fusion MAX, Mobilett Mira Max series models

(3) VX Plus series models

Step 3: (From this step, a maintenance engineer needs to operate on-site) After clicking “IQ”, the following interface will appear, which contains hidden functions. When the mouse is pointed to the following position, the hidden key needs to be operated (see image 1 below), the sequence is: first press F12, then hold the left mouse button, and simultaneously click “ENTER”, the following interface will appear (see image 2 below):
