Abstract:
1. An X-ray system comprising: a source of X-ray radiation; control circuitry configured to control the source of X-ray radiation and to communicate via a wireless interface; a power source operatively connected to the control circuitry and capable of generating a pulse sequence corresponding to a unique pairing code generated by the control circuitry; charge circuitry electrically connected to the power source and configured to deliver the pulse sequence as a charge sequence comprising a series of charge pulses configured to charge any one of a plurality of handheld interface devices; and wherein the control circuitry is configured to cause the charge circuitry to deliver the pulse sequence corresponding to the unique pairing code to one of the plurality of handheld interface devices coupled to the charge circuitry, and to receive a wireless signal corresponding to the delivered code from the coupled handheld interface device to pair the coupled handheld interface device with the control circuitry.
