TROUBLESHOOTING ecam +5V/+12V POWER SUPPLY
Checking input to the power supply:
01. Apply power to the ecam.

02. With DVM, should measure approximately 110Vac present at the input of the
+5V/+12V power supply, black and white wires on the upper power supply. If
present, validate clean box. If clean box valid, continue.
03. With DVM, measure approximately 110Vac between E25 and E26. If no voltage,
replace MEB, if present repair cable to input of +5V/+12V power supply.
Checking power supply for voltage loss during boot process:
01. Power down the ecam.

02. Connect DVM to the +5V supply between TP31 and TP19. (On MEB)
03. Properly apply power to ecam system.
04. Monitor the +5V as the system powers up, should observe loss of only
approximately a few milli-volts as the PMAC boots. If the voltage drop is more,
replace the +5V/+12V power supply.
Checking output of the power supply:
01. Properly power down the ecam system.

02. Remove the Motor Power Supply (VBUS) power supply board from the MEB
backplane.
03. Properly power up the ecam system.
04. Measure with DVM the outputs of the power supply:
a. +12V +0.6V at both E5 and E6 (ORG), using TP19 as reference. (If not
correct, see below to adjust.)
b. +12V +0.6V at E11 (Blue), using TP19 as reference.

ECAM HD3R/HD4 DETECTOR VOLTAGE CHECKS
The new detector assembly for the Siemens ecam system is called the HD3R or HD4.
Currently, we have little information concerning this new detector, however this does not
mean there is nothing we can do. We are still limited due to not having access to
“Standard Plus” diagnostics. Operational speaking, both the HD3 and HD3R detectors
function the same.
Primary Changes on the HD3R Detector
• The PI59 and the PCALC boards have been combined into the PI59R board.
(This PI59R board is located inside the detector tub.)
• The AIMD and the DTPS boards have been combined into the AIMDR board.
• The OEM power supply has been changed. (Still referred to as the OEM.)
• Both the AIMDR and the PI59R boards are “digitally” calibrated using
diagnostics which are currently not available to us.
HD3R Voltage Checks
-100V
• Can be measured on the AIMDR board, TP116 (J15) using TP63 (Z15) as
reference. (+100mV)
-200V
• Can be measured on the AIMDR board, TP115 (J16) using TP63 (Z15) as
reference. (+100mV)
HV S6
• The detector HV ON/OFF Switch S6 is located on the AIMDR board (C13).
HV Reference
• The HV Reference voltage can be measured on the AIMDR at TP109 (D12) using
TP10 (H12) as reference. The HV reference voltage adjustment is R918 (F13).

ECAM HD3 DETECTOR GAMMA EVENT FLOW
1. Gamma ray strikes the crystal. The energy from the gamma ray is transferred to the
sodium iodide molecules in the crystal causing the excited molecules to emit light
photons which in turn strike the PMTs.
2. Energy from the photons is transferred to the molecules in the light-sensitive coating that
covers the inside base of the PMT. These exited molecules emit electrons. A focusing
electrode attracts the electrons to the first of a series of dynode plates inside the PMT.
Each plate is set to a decreasing voltage potential, the first is at a potential of
approximately –800V, the second approximately –700V and continues until the last plate
at -100V. Each successive plate more and more electrons are released multiplying the
few that strike the first plate to millions at the last plate. The result is a small but
measurable current at the output of the PMT.
3. The PMT current passes to the preamp resulting in the signal PAOUT. The signal
PAOUT represents the energy of the gamma ray event as seen by each PMT. At the
preamp, PAOUT is amplified 10 times then sent to the DD59(C) or (CF) board.
4. On the DD59, each PAOUT signal is summed through a 2K resistor network resulting in
the signal ES which is then sent to the PI59 board.
5. On the PI59, ES is now called SUM_E_MTX and applied to negative input of Energy
Sum Amp. Output of the Energy Sum Amp is not called SUM_E_AMP and used in two
places:
a. Applied to an amplifier to energy FLASH ADC on PI59 where it is digitized
representing the raw energy value of the gamma event;
b. Passes through a 49.93/4 resistor on the PI59 and renamed SUM_E_OUT and goes
to an amplifier on the AIMD. Output of the amplifier signal is now called
SUM_E.
6. Each of the 59 PAOUT signals are passed through the DD59 to the PI59 board where
they are fed into on of the 59 Flash ADCs which convert the analog signal from each of
the PMTs to a digital signal. These signals are then integrated. Integrations is
accomplished by the ASIC. These integrals represent the total energy of the detected
gamma ray and the portion seen by each PMT. (Each ASIC is connected to 12
Amplifier/FLASH ADC circuits, therefore five ASIC devices are required on the PI59
board.)
Page 94 of 232
7. While the event is being integrated on the PI59 board, the AIMD board is examining the
SUM_E signal for that same event. The analog SUM_E signal on the AIMD board is
used to drive several circuits.
a. INDET – The signal SUM_E is fed through an amplifier with a threshold detector
resulting in the output signal INDET; (Incident Detection). The signal INDET
starts the Flash ADC clock which in turn starts the integration process.
b. PILE-UP DETECT – If INDET stays high after the rising edge of PILE-UP
DETECT, then a pile-up condition exists. (In a PILE-UP, a new event has started
integrating before the previous event has completed integration.)
c. PILE-UP AMPLITUDE – This amplifier measures the amplitude of the pile-up
event. If the level is below a certain threshold, then the pile-up event is rejected.
d. EARLY DUMP – The signal SUM_E is compared to a coarse upper and lower
energy window. If a pile-up event does not fall in this range, then the EARLY
DUMP signal is sent to the PI59 board to stop integration.
e. COSMIC OVERLOAD – If SUM_E goes above +3.6V, the circuit generates a
signal which dumps the event. An OVERLOAD DELAY signal is also generated
to prevent a new event from starting right away.
f. AFTERGLOW – The afterglow circuit compensates for the baseline shift
encountered at high count rates.
8. AIMD –
a. Determines if the event is accepted or dumped.
b. Uses the signal INDET to feed the dead time circuit via a resistor/capacitor
network which is charged and discharged. This voltage is fed to an ADC in the
microprocessor controller where 5V is equal to 64% dead time and 0.3V is equal
to <4% dead time.
c. There is a 120MHz clock and phase circuitry which controls event integration on
the PI59 board.
d. There is also a microprocessor which acts as a board controller controlling board
functions such as High Count Rate, Temperature Compensation and
communicating with the DPC board in the SNAC to load the PMT gain DAC data
for tuning.
9. After the PI59 has completed the PMT integration process, this data is sent to a FIFO on
the PI59 which is connected to a FIFO on the PCALC board. From this FIFO, the data if
fed through buffers to the DSP, (Digital Signal Processing), nodes of which there are
eight. (One DSP acts as master node, the other seven are general processing nodes.)
Each node processes a full block before outputting the data to the TAXI interface and
accepting a new input block. The following events take place in the DSP nodes:
a. Correct for short integration or pile-up
b. Correct Zi magnitudes for offset errors
c. Process PMT data for LRF (Light Response Function) corrections (optical
distortion)
d. Calculate the event centroid and correct for energy
e. Scale and position the event.
Page 95 of 232
10. Event information is now sent from the PCALC board to the DPC board in the SNAC
computer via the TAXI, (Transparent Asynchronous Xmitter-Receiver Interface), which
is a high speed serial link having a transfer rate of 140Mbps. The TAXI can be thought
of as a pseudo-parallel register. It load data into one side and outputs it on the other, but
in this case the “other” side is separated by a long serial link utilizing 503/4 ohm coaxial
cable.
11. The TAXI link, Formatter and Input FIFO make up the data input function of the DPC.
a. TAXI Link – Receives the high speed serial data from the PCALC board and is
converted to a parallel format in the TAXI circuitry. The CTS, (Clear To Send)
signal is generated by the TAXI circuit to control data transfer speed between the
PCALC board and the DPC.
b. Formatter – The event data is received by the formatter in three 16-bit words
(SPECT mode) or four 16-bit words (COIN mode). The formatter rearranges the
event data into three 18-bit words (SPECT mode) or four 18-bit words (COIN
mode). This is done so the data is in a form that is easily used by the Correction
Processor.
c. Input FIFO – The purpose of the FIFO is to decouple the TAXI serial input from
the Correction Processor. Writing to the FIFO is done on the TAXI clock while
reading from the FIFO is done on the Correction Processor clock.
12. Correction Processor (COP) has two major functions:
a. Correction Processor Control (COPC) controls functions such as synchronous
state machines which keep the event processing synchronized.
b. Correction Processor Data Path (COPD) contains adders, multipliers and LUTs
that perform actual data calculations.
13. The event passes through four stages on the Correction Processor (COP)
a. Stage 1 – Zmap Coefficients are applied to the event data. The Zmap coefficients
are stored on the flash memory on the DPC board.
b. Stage 2 – Data is compared to upper and lower energy boundaries to determine if
the event falls within a certain energy window. If it is, the image event is passed
on to Stage 3. If it is tuning or peaking event, it is read out by the SNAC
computer at this point and no further processing is performed on the data.
c. Stage 3 – Performs the Linearity Correction algorithm on the event data. The
coefficients used in this process are unique to each detector and stored on flash
memory on the DPC board.
Page 96 of 232
d. Stage 4 – The event data is prepared for display.
i. The X and Y data is compared against upper and lower X/Y limits and if
within these limits, the event is considered to be within the Fine FOV.
Only events within the Fine FOV are processed further.
ii. The event is oriented for display. The X and Y values can be swapped
and/or flipped if desired.
iii. Following orientation, image panning is performed which is a function
that adds a pan offset to the detector coordinate system data.
iv. The magnify function is performed next. The algorithm used allow only
certain magnification factors.
v. Matrix sizing is now implemented. Matrix sizing allows viewing of the
image with various resolutions.
vi. The Scaler ID is determined. The Scaler ID is a function of the detector
and the associated analyzer.
vii. Counters are activated:
1. Scaler Counters – Four 32-bit counters that count events in the
Fine FOV for an associated head and analyzer.
2. Count Rate Counters – There 24-bit counters that count gamma
events.
3. Time Tick Counters – A 26-bit down counter counts COP clock
cycles and when zero is reached, a “Time Tick” is generated and
the counter is reset to a value determined by software.
14. Data from the COP is outputted to the SNAC computer by the Output FIFO, PCI
Interface and DMA Controller.
15. There types of communication between SNAC and ICON/esoft workstation:
a. Command Control – Sets up and controls motion and electronic parameters for
camera operation.
b. Growing Image Server – Sends an image in progress to the workstation for
display during acquisition.
c. Image File Server – Sends the final image to the workstation. (During acquisition,
image data is stored on the SNAC computer until acquisition is complete, then
entire acquisition is sent to the workstation.)
NOTE – All boards referenced such as the AIMD also include the AIMD(C)(CF), just as
the DD59(C)(CF) board, however does not include any boards contained in the HD3R
detectors.

ECAM – MOTION AXES – (DUAL HEAD)
There are seven (7) axes of motion:
• Gantry Rotate CW/CCW

• Detector 1 Radial In/Out
• Detector 2 Radial In/Out
• Gantry Left/Right
• Front Patient Bed In/Out
• Front Patient Bed Up/Down
• Rear Patient Bed Up/Down
Each axis, the electrical interface is almost identical. Each axis consists of a motor, an encoder
feedback, (except Up/Down rear bed (PHS) which has no encoder), a position potentiometer,
(used at power up and with the home sensor for position verification), and a home flag sensor.
Three axes have a brake. The rotate brake is integrated into the rotate motor. The two other
brakes are on the output shaft of the radial 1 In/Out drive and the radial 2 In/Out drive. All three
brakes are controlled by the PMAC.
Other sensors such as Rear PHS carriage tilt sensors, Front Patient Bed docker sensors, etc. are
carried to the MEB for the MECP/MECP2 via the axis cable but do not report to the PMAC.
Each axis has one cable from the MEB to the axis. At each axis is a Motor Distribution Board
(MDB) which serves as a harness to break out the various signals to their individual components.

DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION FOR esoft WORKSTATIONS
ECAM diagnostic tests for esoft workstations are “CD_ROM” based. The
diagnostics are presented on two levels.
STANDARD and STANDARD PLUS
The STANDARD level contains all the diagnostic test necessary to calibrate the
system. You can always run the STANDARD diagnostics by leaving the
password fields blank on the “Service Software Authentication” page.
The STANDARD PLUS level contains all the STANDARD level test, plus many
additional tests, which can be helpful in system troubleshooting.
NOTE:
• For troubleshooting a detector problem, make sure you are using the
STANDARD PLUS level of diagnostics.
The following pages discuss how to enter into a STANDARD diagnostics

session and the diagnostic programs.
SNAC application software must be running to boot diagnostics as

described in the following pages.

CALIBRATE C-FRAME
DETECTOR #1
This procedure allows the calibration of the Collimator C-Frame on detector #1.
01. Power up the ecam system.

02. Home the ecam when prompted.
03. Unload the collimators from the ecam.
04. Rotate the system so that detector #1 is at 90o.
05. Start diagnostic session.
06. Select “New Diagnostic Session” from the “FILE” menu.
CAUTION:
• When a new position pot is installed, or in any case when the pot position
is unknown, leave the gear set screw loose on the pot, so the pot will not
be damaged. This is a ten turn pot and 9.5 turns are used in the range of
the C-Frame motion from open to closed. If the gear set screw is tight on
the pot, the pot could easily be damaged by the running past its end point.

SETTING UP EQUIPMENT and SOURCE MATERIAL for
PEAKING, TUNING AND
INTRINSIC FLOOD on ecam CAMERA SYSTEM
Purpose:
• The following steps and procedures will assist you in setting up the ecam camera system for
preparing the source for Peaking, Tuning and performing an Intrinsic Flood. Always have an
authorized site person prepare the source for you, but you can request the way it should be
prepared and the amount of activity needed.
Preparing the Source:
NOTE:
• Have authorized site personnel prepare the source as described below. Use as little liquid as
possible and ensure that the point source’s activity is correct using the attached table.
01. Place a small amount of cotton into the bottom of the plastic vial. Be sure not to use too much
cotton. Cotton should cover the “bottom” of the vial only and not fill the vial.
99
02. Place the drops of Tc on the cotton. Do not exceed the cotton’s saturation capacity.
99
03. Use the chart below to determine the amount of Tc activity needed for calibration to be
performed.
SOURCE ACTIVITY USAGE FOR ecam

CALIBRATIONS
CALIBRATION ACTIVITY (uci)
Peaking 15 - 20
Tuning 20
MHR/COR 900 - 1100
NCO 900 - 1100
Intrinsic Flood 15 - 20
Setup Point Source:
NOTE:
• A deadtime between 3% and 9% is recommended.
01. Remove the collimator(s).

02. Fully retract the detector(s).
03. For a Dual-Detector system, rotate the gantry so Detector 1 is at 0o and Detector two is at 180o.
o
For a Single-Detector system, rotate the gantry so detector is at 0 .
04. Extend the integrated source holder from its storage position on the rear bed and pull out until the
source holder is centered.
05. Have the point source prepared as described.
NOTE:
• Before performing step 6, you might wish to cut a finger out of a latex glove and put your prepared
source inside the finger. This will help prevent possible leakage and crystal contamination.
06. Clamp the capped end of the vial into the source holder and ensure that the cotton tip with the
activity is approximately centered above the detector.
07. For a Dual-Detector system, raise or lower the bed until the source is centered between the
detectors. The count rates shown on the PPM display should be approximately equal.

Using the Spectrum:
NOTE:
• Make sure there is no stray or scatter radioactivity in the department or system room. (With
collimator(s) removed and no source, you should see no more than 400cps.) An injected patient or
an unshielded dose, even if they are in different rooms, may produce a sufficient amount of scatter
activity to cause peaking and tuning problems. (More likely to present tuning issues.) Without
collimator(s) installed, the camera is significantly more sensitive than with the collimator(s)
installed. A typical patient is injected with several mci of activity, which is 10-100 times more than
the amount of activity used for peaking and tuning. Simply put, an injected patient in another room
or if that patient even just walks by the system room, can have a negative effect on peaking and will
negatively effect tuning causing tuning problems or tune failure.
NOTE:
• The Spectrum display is located or shown on the Analyzer tab.
01. Select the particular detector to view its spectrum.

02. Click on the “Start” button in the Spectrum field.
• A graph is displayed and shows:
i. Range of energy values, X axis.
ii. The number of gamma rays falling within the given energy value Y axis.
iii. The width and center of selected energy windows.
03. To stop recording events, click on the “Stop” button.
04. To clear the Spectrum graph or display, click on the “Clear” button.
NOTE:
• The spectrum display will stop growing when it reaches approximately 32,000 counts. At this point
you will need to press the “Stop” button as it does not automatically become disabled. Press the
“Start” button to restart the spectrum.
Peaking the Detector(s)
NOTE:
• When you peak the detector, you are asking the system to slightly shift the analyzer’s window so
that it is centered around the energy peak as detected by the camera. Only one detector is peaked
at a time. If you have a Dual-Detector system and both Detector 1 and Detector 2 are activated, it
will peak Detector 1 then peak Detector 2. During peaking, you will notice a loss of activity on the
PPM display for the detector being peaked.
01. Set up the source as described.

02. Select the isotope being peaked.
03. Click on the “Begin Peaking” button on the Analyzer tab. The system peaks the activated
detector(s) according to the Analyzer values.
04. When the system completes the peaking process, it automatically enters the appropriate status in
the “Peak Status” fields and peak shift values in the “Peak Shifts” (%) fields.
• Peak Status – this field indicates whether the peaking process for the detector was
completed successfully; (field reads “PEAKED”); or not completed successfully; (field
reads “NOT PEAKED”).
• Peak Shifts (%) – this percentage represents how far the system had to shift the detected
isotope photopeak to make it comply with established analyzer values.
• Peak Shifts smaller than +3.0% are acceptable. The detector(s) are capable of working
correctly with shifts up to +12.8%.
NOTE:
•
99 57
It is recommended to “Fine Tune” the detector(s) if the Tc or Co shift is larger than +3.0%. This
will ensure the stored Peak Shifts for other isotopes remains accurate.

Tuning the Camera
Tuning the detector helps you tune the photomultiplier tubes, (PMTs), automatically inside each detector.
“Fine Tune” adjust the PMT gains slightly, while a “Coarse Tune” provides major adjustments of PMT gains
and is not normally required. The available gain range for tuning each PMT is –512 to +511 and the HV
range is –128 to +127. Only one detector can be tuned at a time.
Fine Tune:
01. Set up the source as described.

02. Peak the system, (target detector), for 99Tc as described.
03. Open the “Tuning Workflow” template and examine the Tuning page.
04. Select the detector being tuned.
05. Click on the “Start Fine Tuning” button to begin the tuning process.
NOTE:
• The processor will tune the PMTs in six or less steps which are referred to as “passes” in the
DAC/PMT window’s status field. These passes begin at six and work their way down to one. The
passes then start over at six and then count a second time. During these passes, the processor
adjusts the PMT gains so that the tune values are less than 7, (read 0.7%), for the center PMTs
and 15, (read 1.5%), for the PMTs on the edges. Tune values represent the amount of change
required to perform optimally.
06. The system will stop tuning over the course of its maximum of 12 passes.
07. To display the tune values, click on the “Display Tune Values” button. The value assigned to each
PMT after the current pass is displayed in the field above each PMT number.
NOTES:
• When all the tune values are less than 7, (read 0.7%), for the center PMTs and 15, (read 1.5%), for
the PMTs on the edges, tuning has completed successfully.
• The acquisition controller displays an error message if the system is unable to complete tuning
successfully. (If so, follow the instructions given in the Tuning window’s message field.) If tuning
should fail, it may be necessary to exit the Tuning page, reopen it, then redo the tuning procedure.
08. Peak the system once again as described.

09. When you have completed viewing or saving information, click the “Activity Done” button to end the
Tuning activity and continue with the workflow.
Coarse Tune:
01. Proceed as instructed for “Fine Tuning” the detector with the exception of step 5; click on the “Start
Coarse Tuning” button.
02. Click on the “Display Gain Values” button to display the gain values assigned to each PMT after the
current tune pass. The “High Voltage DAC” value is displayed which depicts how much DAC
output is needed to tune the detector. The gain value, the voltage applied to each PMT to bring it
into tune, appears in the field above each PMT.
03. After a Coarse Tune has been performed successfully, always perform a Fine Tune.
NOTES:
• If a “Coarse Tune” is performed or the DACs are cleared, all analyzer isotope presets will have to
be repeaked.
• If the PMT DACs are cleared, a “Coarse” and “Fine” Tune must be performed as described.

ECAM – HD3 C-FRAME REMOVAL PROCEDURE
This procedure will assist you in removing the C-Frame assembly. (It will be necessary to
remove the “C-Frame” if you have a need to put the detector into the “Detector Service
Position”.) This procedure assumes the person performing it obtains the basic knowledge to do
so. It is recommended you thoroughly read and understand this procedure before actually
performing this procedure.
While performing this procedure, you must understand, follow and adhere to all safety
guidelines and procedures concerning, however not limited to the following: personal,
equipment, environmental, electrical and radioactive.
Items Needed:
• Your service tool kit.
• C-Frame Closed Jumper (Siemens part number 5223248) (See Figure: 1)
• CAUTION: While system is in “diagnostic mode”, there are “NO” system fail-safes.
• NOTE: System must be “homed” and in the 180o configuration to perform this procedure.
(See Figure: 2)
• NOTE: This procedure assumes “Standard” diagnostics is used for some removals as
stated in this procedure.
01. Remove the detector processor cover from the detector being serviced to gain access to
the C-Frame. (See Figure: 3)
02. Rotate the gantry so the detector being serviced is at 90o or 270o, or the detectors are in
the collimator change positions. (See Figure: 4)
03. Remove the collimator from the detector being serviced.
• CAUTION: When removing the 5mm hex bolt and stop washers from the C-Frame
bearing posts in Step 4, you must take note and record any washers which are
removed. Some C-Frames have “shims”, (large and small), used for C-Frame
alignment. These “shims”, (washers), “must” be replaced on the same posts from
which they were removed.
04. Use a 5mm hex wrench to remove the stop washers from the C-Frame bearing posts.
(See Figure: 5)
05. Enter into a “Standard” diagnostic session.
06. Perform diagnostic “Exercise C-Frame”, (for the detector or C-Frame being serviced), to
“OPEN” the C-Frame.
07. Disconnect J10, J11, J12 and J13 ribbon cables from the MED/U board. Take care
when disconnecting these cables, the connection is “key locked” and make sure these
cables are not even slightly bent or twisted; these cables are very easily damaged.
(These are the ribbon cables from the “Light Rails” and can be disconnected with power
applied.) (See Figure: 5)
08. Disconnect J4 from the MED/U. Take care when disconnecting this cable, the
connection is “key locked”. (Connection J4 can be disconnected with power applied.)
09. Loosen the tie wraps securing the ribbon cables to the C-Frame motor.
10. Use a 2.5mm hex wrench to remove the C-Frame “lock plate” from the rear of the
C-Frame. (See Figure: 6)
Page 151 of 232

11. Using extreme caution not to damage any cables, carefully remove the C-Frame
assembly. (See Figure: 7)
12. If motion is required after the C-Frame has been removed, perform the following:
• Install the “C-Frame Closed Jumper” at J4 on the MED/U board. (See Figure: 1
& Figure: 8)
• Properly exit the “Standard” diagnostic session.
• Press the “Reset” button on the MED/U board. (See Figure: 9)
• CAUTION: Carefully observe that: all cables clear without getting pinched; if
removed, the CIDI cable does not get caught on the detector flange; and the C-
Frame motor extension arms feed into the holes of the detector flange without
binding.
13. Reassemble in reverse order.

14. Perform a collimator change.
15. Verify the system can perform a 90o “auto contour” SPECT study.

ECAM – HD3 DETECTOR SERVICE POSITION PROCEDURE
This procedure will assist you in putting the ecam detector into the “Detector Service Position”.
In the “Detector Service Position”, you are removing the inner workings of the detector, (crystal,
optical spacer, PMTs, preamps and inner cables from the detector tub. It is necessary to place
the detector in the “Detector Service Position”, as an example, if it is necessary to remove and
replace a PMT. This procedure assumes the person performing it obtains the basic knowledge
to do so. It is recommended you thoroughly read and understand this procedure before actually
performing this procedure.
Items Needed:
• Four pieces of “2x4” straight lumber cut to approximately 24” to 27” lengths. (Two
pieces of “4x8” can be used if that is all, which is available). A clearance of 4” to 6” is
required.
• C-Frame Closed Jumper (Siemens part number 5223248)
• CAUTION: While system is in “diagnostic mode”, there are “NO” system fail-safes.
• NOTE: System must be “homed” and in the 180o configuration to perform this procedure.
• NOTE: It is recommended before beginning with this procedure if not already, the
lightest weight collimators available on site be installed.
• NOTE: This procedure assumes “Standard” diagnostics is used for some removals as
stated in this procedure.
01. Remove the “detector processor” cover from the detector being serviced.
(See Figure: 1)
02. Rotate the detector being serviced to the 90o position as facing the front of the gantry.
(See Figure: 2)
03. Start a “Standard” diagnostics session.
04. Perform the diagnostic “Exercise C-Frame” and open the C-Frame for the detector being
serviced.
05. Remove the collimator for the detector being serviced. (See Figure: 3)
06. With C-Frame still open and in diagnostics, remove the C-Frame assembly.
(See Figure: 4 & Figure: 5)
07. With C-Frame removed and the C-Frame drive mechanism still open; install the “Closed
Jumper”, (Siemens #5223248), on the MED/U board at J4. (You will have to remove the
connector already installed. Safe to do this under power.) (See Figure: 6 & Figure: 7)
• NOTE: By installing the “C-Frame Closed Jumper” at J4 on the MED/U

board simply fakes the system to think or recognize that the C-Frame is closed
when it is open.
08. Properly quit the diagnostics.

09. Press the “reset” button on the MED/U. (See Figure: 8)
Page 180 of 232

• NOTE: In extreme cases, where the procedure has not be followed as stated, it may be
necessary to press the “Reset” button on the MECP board to gain motion from
the hand controller.
10. At this point, you should have motion from the hand controller. If safe, check to see by
attempting to rotate a couple of degrees and by moving radius of detector being serviced.
11. Turn off detector voltage. (See Figure: 9)
12. Turn off detector HV. (See Figure: 10)
13. Disconnect the HV BNC cable. (See Figure: 11)
14. Disconnect the ribbon cable from the CIDI board. (See Figure: 12)
15. Rotate the detector being serviced to the “top”, or at the 0o position. (See Figure: 13)
16. Remove the “pallet” from the “Front Bed”.
17. Lock down the “Front Bed” docker micro switches. (This can be done with tape or by
using a tie-wrap taking care not to damage the switch.) This must be done in order to
fake or make the system think or recognize the “Front Bed” is docked. No motion is
allowed if the system finds the “Front Bed” is not docked.
• CAUTION: When using the “Front Bed” or “PHS” to perform system servicing
procedures, you must not exceed 600 lbs. of weight or force on the “Front Bed” or
“PHS”. Reaching or exceeding this limit will cause damage to the “Front Bed” or
“PHS”.
• CAUTION: When placing or moving the “Front Bed” parallel to the gantry, be
aware the bottom part of the “Front Bed” is not the lowest part, it is the “support
frames” on either side underneath which are much lower. If necessary, use the
“Hand Control” to adjust the height of the “Front Bed” so it does not contact the
bottom or detector not being serviced.
18. Place the “Front Bed” parallel to the gantry. (See Figure: 14)
19. Slowly push the “Front Bed” between the detectors until the “Front Bed” stops travel.
(Travel will stop when the bottom front feet, (left and right side), of the “Front Bed” come
in contact with the front feet of the gantry, (left and right side).
20. Place two stacks of lumber, (each containing two “2x4”), on the “Front Bed”.
(See Figure: 15)
21. Raise the “Front Bed” to within 1” of maximum height or until lumber is within just less
than ½” of the detector tub. (If necessary, you may have to radius “IN” the detector
being serviced.)
22. Align the lumber so as the edges of the detector tub when lowered, will be resting on the
lumber leaving room to remove the 3 hex bolts on each side mounting the detector to the
detector tub. (See Figure: 16 & Figure: 17)
23. Before placing the detector on the “Front Bed” or lumber; perform the following:
• Lower the detector being serviced to within just less than ½” of the lumber blocks.
• Six M4 cap screws mount the detector to the tub. Use a 3mm hex wrench and
evenly loosen the six cap screws 3 turns CCW, starting first with the left side,
then the right side. This is to create a 2mm air gap between the detector and the
tub.
• NOTE: “Caudal Tilt” function should be active. If for some reason “Caudal Tilt” function
is not active at this time, on the MED/U board, set SW2 positions 6 & 7 to “ON”, press
the MED/U reset switch and wait for tone. When tone is heard, “Caudal Tilt” function
should be active. (See Figure: 18)
Page 181 of 232

24. If necessary, use the “Caudal Tilt” switch to tilt the detector “front-to-back” so that the
detector is parallel with lumber placed on the “Front Bed”.
25. If necessary, use the “Hand Control” to rotate the detector so that it is “level” with the
lumber from “left-to-right”.
26. Double check and make sure the detector is “square”, “level” and “parallel” with the
lumber before proceeding. Make necessary adjustments.
27. Using the “Hand Control”, (by either lowering the detector or raising the “Front Bed”), so
the detector is parallel with the lumber and resting on the lumber until the “air gap” just
begins to close. “STOP” all motion when the “air gap” just begins to close.
28. Remove the six, (three each side of detector), M4 3mm cap screws. (These screws
require approximately 15 turns CCW to completely remove.)
• CAUTION: To prevent damage to the detector and detector flange, make sure and
observe while lowering the detector from the tub, the detector does not “hang up”
or “bind”, and the detector and detector flange separates evenly “front-to-back”
and “side-to-side”.
• NOTE: It is recommended, before disconnecting any cables, you make at least a mental
note of placement and folds of all the cables. Also recommended, before disconnecting
any cable, if not marked or tagged where goes, you do so before disconnecting as well
as marking or tagging any cables that might have a “tie-warp” so these can be replaced
as found before reinstalling the detector. (You also might wish to note the “number” of
cables disconnected.) To avoid cable damage and/or system damage, it is critical
all cables be properly routed, tie-wrapped and connected before reinstallation of
detector.
29. Using the “Hand Control”, continue lowering detector until there is enough clearance,
(making sure you do not lower too far or far enough to “stress” any cable or connector),
to access inner detector cables so they can be disconnected. This would include, not
limited to, all board cable connections, board coax connections and fan cable
connections.
30. Observe that the disconnected CIDI cable, (at rear of detector tub), does not get caught
or bound on the detector flange openings.
• CAUTION: While lowering the inner detector assembly for the detector tub,
observe that you have plenty room between the “Front Bed” and the bottom
detector.
31. Once you have verified all inner head cables have been disconnected and will not bind,
slowly and carefully continue to lower the inner detector until it clears the detector tub.
32. When you have verified proper clearance between the inner detector and the detector
tub, you may now slowly and carefully move the “Front Bed” out to gain access to the
inner detector assembly for service.
33. Once you have completed necessary service, reverse this sequence to reinstall the inner
detector into the detector tub.
• CAUTION: While reinstalling inner detector into detector tub, be sure to observe at
all times, all cable clear without getting pinched, the CIDI cable does not get
caught on the detector flange and the C-Frame motor extension arms feed into the
holes of the detector flange without binding. (See Figure: 19)
Page 182 of 232

• NOTE: Before reinstalling the inner detector assembly into the detector tub, double
check and verify all cables and connections are routed correctly and properly connected.
This includes the 59 HV wires and the 59 data cables. (See Figure: 20)
34. Using the “Hand Control”, move the inner detector assembly into the detector tub.
“STOP” all motion when the inner detector is within 2mm of the detector tub.
35. Using a 3mm hex wrench, tighten the six, (three each side), M4 cap screws, first the left
side and then the right side evenly until all screws are tight.
• NOTE: If you had to activate “Caudal Tilt” using SW2 on the MED/U board, then now on
the MED/U board, set SW2 positions 6 & 7 to “OFF”, press the MED/U reset button and
wait for the tone. When you hear the tone, continue with procedure.
36. Remove the “Front Bed” from in front of the gantry.

37. Reconnect the CIDI board cable and HV cable.
38. Turn the HV back on.
39. Turn the detector power back on.
40. At this point, it is recommended you flood the detector serviced using a point source and
observe there are no “holes” in the flood.
• NOTE: If at this point you “do” observe a “hole” in the flood, this generally points to either
an HV wire or data cable is either improperly connected or not connected. This requires
putting the detector back into the “Detector Service Position” and verifying connections.
• NOTE: If at this point you observe “no” counts or activity from the detector, which was
serviced, and the detector power is on and supplies have been verified, this generally is
due to a loss of “detector communication”. To attempt to reestablish or restore detector
communications, first attempt a “soft reboot” of the SNAC computer from the PPM. If
this does not work, properly shutdown the ecam system and then properly re-apply
power to the ecam system. After reestablishing detector communications and you have
counts or activity, make sure no objects are in the way of the gantry and “home” the
system; then continue with procedure.
41. Remove the tape or tie-wrap or what was used to close the “Front Bed” docker
assembly’s micro switches, then store or dock the “Front Bed” in the “storage” position.
42. Reinstall the C-Frame assembly, (reassemble in reverse order).
43. With the C-Frame Closed Jumper removed from J4 on the MED/U board and the original
connector install at J4, press the MED/U reset button.
44. “Home” the system.
45. Perform the “Fan Current” check procedure to insure all fans are running inside the
detector.
46. Verify proper collimator change sequence.

ECAM – REMOVING THE GELLED TUBE
This procedure explains the basic steps required to remove a “gelled” tube from a Siemens
ecam detector. This procedure applies to both 2” and 3” PMTs. This procedure also applies to
all digital detectors using gel to bond the PMTs to the optical spacer. Also included, are basic
cautions required when performing this procedure. It is suggested you completely read and
understand this procedure before beginning.
The following item are necessary to replace PMT:
ITEM PART NUMBER

1mm Glass Beads 1784813
Teflon Scraper 567-000743
Blade Scraper 4358920
HD3/ASIC PMT Coupling Weight Kit 3529711

Parts list.
Lumber You will need four pieces
of 2x4", each cut
approximately 27" long.
NOTE: Gel packets are not inter-changeable. If a three inch packet
is used on a two inch tube, the tube cannot be removed and the
detector will have to be returned to the factory.
Removing the Gelled Tube
01. Place the detector in the “Service Position”.

02. Level the detector from “side to side” and “front to back”. (It is important the detector be
level).
03. Disconnect all detector head cable connected to the PI59(C)(CF)(R) and
DD59(C)(CF)(R) boards.
04. Remove the three Phillips screws holding the PI59(C)(CF)(R) board to the
DD59(C)(CF)(R) board. This will allow the PI59(C)(CF) board to pivot on its hinges.
05. Remove the four fans taking note the flow direction for re-assembly.
06. Remove the brackets around the DD59(C)(CF)(R) board.
07. Disconnect all detector cabling connection the tubes to the DD59(C)(CF)(R) board.
Remove the brackets holding the DD59(C)(CF)(R) board to the standoffs.

CAUTION
• There are no longer separate tube shields. They are now spot-welded together as a
“nest”. Be careful not to damage a shield as this will result in detector
replacement.
NOTE
• Some tubes, ( 1,5,8,28,32,52,55 and 59 ) have capacitors attached from the PMT
preamp to the shield. Use a grounded soldering iron to remove the wire from the PMT
preamp. The wire is tacked to one leg of C103 or C4. (Refer to diagram below)

08. Apply pressure to the PMT in a forward direction to begin to release the gel seal. Then
apply reverse pressure to the PMT to begin to release the gel seal. Now apply pressure
to the right and then pressure to the left as in a “twisting motion”. Repeat as necessary
until the gel bond starts to release. (See diagram below)
Page 199 of 232

09. Slowly rotate and rock the PMT. Repeat until the gel bond is released. (See diagram
below)
10. Twist and pull up on the PMT, gripping the glass, until it is out of the shield.
11. Using a plastic scraper, very carefully remove all visible signs of the gel residue from the
optical spacer. Clean the optical spacer thoroughly, but do not use any solvents or
alcohol prep pads, which will prevent the new tube from bonding properly.
NOTE
• The detector must be level to ensure that the gel, after it is distributed, stays
evenly under the PMT.

ECAM HD3 – INSTALLING NEW PMT
This procedure assumes you have followed the proper processes/procedures to include all
safety procedures for removing the bad or suspected PMT and are now ready to install the new
or replacement PMT. This being the case, proceed with the PMT installation process.
• IT IS RECOMMENDED YOU READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS PROCEDURE

BEFORE PERFOMRING!
Some items you will need:
ITEM PART NUMBER

1mm Glass Beads 1784813
Teflon Scraper 567-000743
Blade Scraper 4358920
HD3/ASIC PMT Coupling Weight Kit 3529711
C-Frame Closed Jumper 5223248
New PMT Check Detector Log Book
or Detector Assembly
Parts list.
Lumber You will need four pieces
of 2x4", each cut
approximately 27" long.
NOTE: Gel packets are not inter-changeable. If a three inch packet
is used on a two inch tube, the tube cannot be removed and the
detector will have to be returned to the factory.
Normal Process
01. Clean the new PMT face with a dry soft cloth. “DO NOT” use any solvents or cleaners
as these can cause improper bonding issues.
02. Remove the divider bar from one packet of gel and squeeze the contents in the upper
compartment into the bottom one. (Make sure you are using the proper gel packet for
the size PMT you are installing.) Gently knead the packet for approximately 60 to 90
seconds to thoroughly mix the contents. (While mixing gel packet contents, attempt to
eliminate at many air bubbles as possible.)
03. Pour the entire contents of the gel pack mixture onto the “center” of the optical spacer
pad. While pouring the gel onto the center area, “DO NOT” attempt to spread the gel,
let the gel spread itself.
04. Wait approximately 3 to 5 minutes for the air bubbles to escape.
05. Immediately distribute evenly as possible approximately 15 to 20 1mm glass beads in
the gel.
Page 203 of 232
06. Correctly orient and align the PMT just above the gel and set it onto the gel puddle. “DO
NOT ROTATE THE PMT!” Rotation of the PMT may cause the glass beads to move
out from under the PMT.
07. Place the proper weight base and weight on the PMT. (The weight kit includes bases for
round and hex preamps and weights for 2” and 3” PMTs. Both weight base and weight
“must” match the shape preamp and size PMT you are installing for proper bonding.)
Allow the PMT to set with weight for at least 4 hours at normal room temperature. If
room temperature is below 70oF, let the PMT set with weight for a longer time period;
approximately twenty minutes per degree for every degree below 70oF. After 4 hours,
(time could be longer depending on room temperature), remove the weight and carefully
begin re-assembly of the detector. (See Figure: 1 & Figure: 2) DO NOT INSTALL
DETECTOR IN TUB AT THIS TIME!
08. Certain PMTs, (1, 5, 8, 28, 32, 52, 55 and 59), have capacitors attached from the
preamp to the PMT shield or “MU Shield”. Solder the wire to the capacitor on the
preamp board if this is the case. (If you are replacing on of the above stated PMTs, this
capacitor wire should have been removed before removing the PMT.) (See Figure: 3)
09. Reassemble and re-cable the detector.
• DO NOT PUT THE REASSEMBLED DETECTOR BACK IN THE TUB AT THIS TIME
• Re-install HV wires by grasping the connector, not the wire. Make sure you install
HV wires as you removed them, oriented correctly if the connecting posts are
square.
10. Make sure HV is off and the HV coax cable is disconnected. Turn the detector on; apply
only “low voltages” to detector. Let the detector warm up for 10 minutes.
• There is no Preamp Zero Adjust for the PAD1 preamps.
11. Using a DVM, attach the positive lead to the test point on the DD59(C)(CF)(R) board for
the replaced preamp. (These test points are number as the PMTs; TP1 thru TP59.)
Attach the negative lead to TP67.
12. Adjust R112, Preamp Zero Adjust, (located on the preamp), for 0V, +500uV. (This
adjustment is only available on the FF6 and FF7 preamps.
13. Power down the detector.
• Once you have attached all HV wires, Data cables and connectors, it is
recommended you “double check” all HV wire, Data cables and connectors for
proper placement and secure connection. Also make sure all cables are “tie-
wrapped” as you found them and cables are positioned correctly for proper
“folding” when detector is placed inside the tub.
14. Replace the detector into the tub.

15. Reconnect the HV coax cable and turn HV on.
16. Apply power to the detector.
• If you see no counts or activity from detector in question, at this point, it may be
necessary to perform a “Soft Boot” of the SNAC from the PPM to reestablish
detector communications.
17. At this time, using a source, (15uci to 20uci), check to make sure you have no “holes” in
the flood.
Page 204 of 232

• If you see a hole in the area where you just replaced the PMT, this could be
caused by “invalid” DAC value. Try clearing the PMT DACs.
• If you see a hole in the area where you did not replace the PMT, this could be
caused either by a loose or uninstalled HV wire or data cable. At this point, you
would have to put the detector in the “Service Position” and check all HV wires
and Data cables.
18. Let the detector warm up for at least 60 minutes.

19. Perform Light Leak Check.
20. Launch the ICON / esoft software. Clear the PMT DACs.
• When the PMT Gain DACs are “cleared” or a “Coarse Tune” is performed, the
system no longer retains “peaking data”! As a result, it will be necessary for the
customer to “re-peak” all the isotopes they use. Once an isotope has been
properly peaked, the system will retain the peaking data for this isotope. It is vital
you make your customer aware of this.
21. Select the proper isotope preset. (You should be using 99Tc)
22. Peak the analyzer. (Peak shift percentage should be +3.0%)
23. Perform a Coarse Tune. When the Coarse Tune is completed, view the Gain Values
display map.
24. Inspect the PMT gain values for any value greater than 200 from the default value. (The
“default” value can be found in the “Detector Service Log Book” or the PMT gain value
all PMTs displayed after the DACs were cleared.)
• There are several different default values which is factory determined depending
on the gain of the PMTs used in the detector. An example default value would be
–209.
25. If any PMT gain value is found to be greater than 200 from the default value, the gain of
these PMTs will need to be adjusted.
• If PMT gain value adjustments are necessary, make adjustments accordingly to

achieve whatever default PMT DAC gain value your detector has.
• Example: If your PMT DAC gain default value is –209, given a 200 gain range value,
your PMT DAC gain value range after Coarse Tune would be –009 to –409.
26. If PMT DAC Gain adjustments where necessary, when completed, allow detector to
warm up for at least 30 minutes before proceeding.
27. Once detector has warmed up, clear the DACs, re-peak the system and perform Coarse
Tune.
28. If Coarse Tune passes and all PMT DAC Gain values are within specifications, continue.
If not, then go back to Step 20.
29. Perform Fine Tune.
30. Once Coarse Tune and Fine Tune have been performed and passed with all values in
specifications, perform a uniformity flood.
31. Perform “Post Repair Detector Testing”.

INSTALL NEW PMT, (WITH PREAMP), MAKING SURE PREAMP ORIENTATION IS THE
SAME AS ALL OTHER PMT’S AND PREAMP’S. ONCE PMT HAS REACHED THE GEL,
VERY SLIGHTLY APPLY DOWNWARD PRESSURE AND TWIST, (NOT MORE THAN ¼"
EITHER DIRECTION), JUST ENOUGH TO SEAT THE PMT IN THE GEL. (CAUTION: DO NOT
APPLY ENOUGH PRESSURE OR TWIST IN AN ATTEMPT TO SPREAD THE GEL. IF SO,
PMT WILL NOT BOND PROPERLY!) ONCE PMT IS SEATED, PLACE WEIGHT AND BASE,
(ASSEMBLY REQUIRED), ON TOP OF PMT/PREAMP MAKING SURE IT IS LEVEL.
(CAUTION: IF WEIGHT KIT NOT LEVEL, WILL CAUSE IMPROPER BONDING!) LEAVE
WEIGHT KIT ON FOR AT LEAST 3 TO 4 HOURS UNDISTURBED ALLOWING FOR INITIAL
SETUP TIME. AFTER THIS INITIAL SETUP TIME, THE WEIGHT CAN BE REMOVED AND
REASSEMBLY OF THE DETECTOR CAN BEGIN.
CAUTION: DO NOT ROTATE OR FLIP DETECTOR FOR AT LEAST 24 HOURS FROM THE
TIME THE WEIGHT WAS FIRST PLACED ON PMT!
(BE AWARE THERE IS A DIFFERENT WEIGHT FOR BOTH 2" AND 3" TUBES, AND A BASE
FOR BOTH HEX AND ROUND PREAMPS.)

set so that the input is just above the noise floor (inherent noise level of the
system at rest).
PI59 PMT Integrator. Contains the Flash ADC's that digitize the preamp outputs.
PMAC Programmable Multi-Axis Controller. Dedicated real-time motion controller. It
directly controls the motor current to each axis through four analog amplifiers with
encoder and/or potentiometer feedback. When a command for motion is
received from the MECP/MECP2, the PMAC will switch the amplifier to the axis,
enable the amplifier and supply a digital value which is converted on the amplifier
to an analog voltage representative of the desired axis velocity.
POST Power On Self Test. Series of test performed by the computer when power is
switched on.
PPM Patient Positioning Monitor. The ecam flat panel display, which is installed on the
end of a moveable boom arm. It allows the nuclear technician to properly
position the patient for image acquisition. The PPM also provides gantry status,
collimator information and a diagnostic interface.
SCL Serial Command Link. Mode of communication between detector components
and the console. The SCL uses a RS485 at a baud rate of 38.4KHz.
SCSI Small Computer System Interface. High speed data bus used for connecting
hard disks, tape drives, and other accessories to the computer.
Serial I/O Board The communications interface board installed in the SNAC computer. Channel
A (RS232) communicates with the MEB and gantry. Channel B (RS485)
provides SCL communications to the detector(s).

ECAM FUNCTIONS - CONTINUED
ITEM FUNCTION
SNAC Siemens Nuclear Acquisition Computer. This computer, along with the ICON
computer, provides control of the ecam system.
SPECT Single Photon Emission Computed Tomagraphy. Rotational study around the
patient in which a series of images at different angles are taken. These views
can be reconstructed later.
TAXI Transparent Asynchronous Xmitter-Receiver Interface. High speed data link from
the PCALC to the DPC board in the SNAC.
Tower The ecam electronics tower contains the clean box, Motion Electronics Base,
(MEB), SNAC computer and ICON computer. The ICON monitor and keyboard
may sit on top of the tower.
Tune Map Found under ICON Camera Tools (DAC/PMT). This is a display of how close
each PMT photopeak is to the keV that is used for tuning. When the detector is
tuned correctly, both coarse and fine tune are less than 1.4% and inside PMT's
are less than 0.&% of keV used for tuning.

NORMAL / EXTENDED RANGE TUNING
After the completion of the tuning for normal mode narrow window, the system will
automatically tune for the extended range. The extended range is used for isotopes that
require any part of the window setting to be above 324kev. The HV value for the detector is
lowered by approximately 10%. This can be measured with a meter at TP8 on the DTPS
board. The reason the HV must be lowered is that the range of the 9 bit flash ADC's is
limited to a 2v signal. Isotopes above 245kev normally exceed this value. This results in a
need for a completely separate PMT DAC gain map.
