Abstract: A radiographic imaging system having a number of useable digital radiographic detectors selectively activates one of the detectors to capture a radiographic image. The DR detectors each include a movement detector configured to transmit a movement signal when a movement of the corresponding detector is sensed. A portion of the system is disabled in response to receiving a movement signal transmitted from a motion sensor in a detector other than the active detector.
