Abstract
The electronic cassette includes a portable housing. A CPU of the electronic cassette functions as a RW controller, a first determination unit, and a mode controller. The RW controller acquires a standard pose as a pose of the housing in a stored state, in which the housing is stored in a storage portion of a movable radiography apparatus, from a ROM. The first determination unit determines whether the housing is in the stored state or a taken-out state, in which the housing is taken out from the storage portion, based on the standard pose and a current pose as a current pose of the housing detected by a pose detection sensor. The mode controller switches the drive mode from the sleep mode to the radiography mode in a case where the first determination unit determines that the housing is brought from the stored state into the taken-out state.
