GND connection is more than important..!!

This is 3 phase input – 3 of main fuses (L1, L2, L3)

In case of 3 phase power, input voltage should be
380VAC ~ 400VAC

For single phase, input power voltage should be

200~240VAC to 2 main fuses.

Main circuit breaker in the X-ray room is very

important since it will judge supplying electricity
to HF Generator and the quality of input power
(electricity) is affecting to X-ray quality directly.

ECORAY strongly recommends 100~130A main

circuit breaker for single phase Generators, 100A for
3 phase generators.

1. Two 220VAC lines (from Circuit breaker) are connected to Mio board and FnD board.

2. The other 220VAC line goes to CnD board.

The 220VAC is commutated to 310VDC.
310VDC charges the main capacitor. This is the first charge.
st
3. Once the 1 step charge is done, the CnD board will turn on the Magnetic switch with 220VAC input
to SMC. Then the 220VAC electricity from circuit breaker begins to charge the main capacitor again.
This is the second charge.
st
When the voltage for charge reaches 80% (1 step charge), RLY2 on CnD board turns on to enable
SMC. Then the 220VAC electricity from circuit breaker is commutated to 310VDC after passing
through the 3phase diode. 310VDC charges main capacitor. This is the second charge.

1. One 380VAC line from circuit breaker goes to transformer and is commutated to 220VAC.
The 220VAC flows to Mio board, FnD board.
Also 220VAC is used for CnD board to turn on the Magnetic switch.

2. The other 380VAC line flows to CnD board. It’s commutated to 537VDC. 537VDC charges the main
capacitor. This is the first charge.

3. When you expose, the CnD board turns on the Magnetic switch. Then 380VAC from circuit breaker
charges the main capacitor. This is the second charge. When the voltage for charge reaches 80%,
CnD board turns on the Magnetic switch. Then the electricity from circuit breaker is commutated to
310VDC after passing through the 3 phase diode. The 310VDC charges main capacitor. This is the

1. When you input any order on the OP console, OP console orders something to Mio board.

2. The Mio board orders the same thing to FnD and CnD board. Through that, Mio board checks
whether FnD and CnD boards are ok or not . After checking, Mio board sends the feedback to the
OP console. If there is a problem during this check, Err.Msg. shows up on the OP console.

3. Ex. Ready & Exposure

Push ‘Ready’ on the OP console → ‘READY’ order flows to Mio board → Mio board passes ‘READY’
order to FnD & CnD board → FnD board heats the filament in the tube and makes the tube ready.
(At the same time, after receiving READY order from Mio board, CnD board begins to charge the
main capacitor This is the first charge) → Charging ‘Main Capacitor’ starts as soon as the console is
turned on. It’s not related with ready situation. With pushing READY, Tube Anode Stator is checked
automatically. If there is a problem, Error shows up on the console.
If there is no problem during all above check, READY LED (Green) lights up on the OP console. If
there is a problem, Err. Msg shows up.

[If you bush EXPOSURE button, the above data process happens again]
After pushing EXPOSURE, all data process stops till exposure is finished.
When you input data (like kV, mA, time) into OP console, the data flows into the DSP module in Mio
board. And the MIO board informs to FnD board how much heat electrons the filament should
expose.
[After the second charge of CnD board, the IGBT in the FnD board opens. After it opens, the high
voltage (which is required for expose) flows to HV tank.]
After the second charge of CnD Board is finished, IGBT of FnD opens. After IGBT opens, the
voltage (which is required for X-ray exposure) will flows into High Voltage Trans former. The voltage
is boosted through coils in the HV transformer. The boosted voltage flows to X-ray tube.

2. Error (related with console)

 Error 232 OP CONSOLE Mio board

This happens when there is a
communication problem between
OP console and Mio board.
When there is a problem on the OP console,
OP console cannot transfer any orders to Mio board. In this case, the error shows up.If
there is a problem on the cable, data cannot be transferred. Therefore the Error shows up.
If Mio has a problem, the Error shows up, because the Mio board cannot process the data
from OP console.

 Solution
OP console
If OP console has a problem, please disconnect OP console from the generator, and
connect the console with the callibration computer program with the communication cable.
If the OP console works well under this situation, it means OP console has a problem.
Therefore replacement needs.

Cable
Replacement of the cable which is damaged during transportation

3. OP CONSOLE

Mio board
When Err 232 happens because of Mio board, the DSP module in the Mio board becomes
too hot. If DSP module is too hot, Mio needs to be replaced.

 From XR5 version, there is another DSP module inside of OP console PCB.

Need to check for RS232 error…

1. Signal cable connection between OP console and Generator (Mio board)
2. Mio board itself (specially at DSP module) – go to Mio board section for more info.
3. OP console (specially at DSP module or inside film type PCB connector)
4. Any system noise can interfere the communication and system GND is important.

13
 4. Circuit Breaker

You need a suitable circuit breaker for using X-ray system which requires high
voltage.

1. 32KW system
32kW needs to use this system. Therefore, 220VAC, 110A circuit breaker is required. The inner
capacitor in the Generator has the capacity of about 8kW.

2. 40kW system
In the case of single phase, we recommend 220VAC, 130A circuit breaker. At least, 220VAC, 130A
circuit breaker needs.
In the case of three phase, we recommend 380VAC, 105A circuit breaker. At least, 380VAC, 80A
circuit breaker needs.

3. 50kW system
We recommend 380VAC, 130A circuit breaker. At least, 380VAC, 100A circuit breaker needs.

If the electricity in the hospital is not enough, you can use the X-ray system with PSU. PSU is available with
32KW and 40KW system. For using the system with PSU, at least, 220VAC, 10A circuit breaker is required.

If the electricity is less than our recommend above, you can get a unclear X-ray image (by not enough X-ray
exposure) or the circuit breaker shut down.

Summary
 Single phase generators (32, 40kW) require minimum 100A main circuit breakers.
 Three phase generators for 32, 40kW require minimum 80A main circuit breakers.
 50kW generators require 100A main circuit breaker at least. (380V three phase only)

Note
Lack of electricity by lower circuit breaker than recommended can bring different malfunctioning of
units.

HF Generator would be harmed by unexpected current or voltage rush or shortage.

 In case the local electricity (AC input voltage) is not stable, we strongly recommend you to
install AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulator) which will make the input voltage to HF Generator
stable.
There are several selections in the market. (just refer following 2 suppliers for it)

Please visit following web site for your reference.

http://www.stabilizer-china.com/TNS-Series-AC-Automatic-Voltage-Regulator-15-90KVA.html

http://www.powerengineers-india.com/automatic-voltage-stabilizers.html

30KVA AVR is recommended for 32, 40kW generator, 40KVA AVR is good for 50kW generator.

5. Mio board

1. Function
Mio board checks each boards according to OP console commands, and send the feed-back to OP
console.

 If you turn on the OP console?

Mio board makes the Tube rotor running. Therefore, you can hear the rotor spinning sound
about 4 seconds after you turn on the OP console.

 If you push READY on the OP console?

Operator push buttons on OP console, and then OP console gives commands to Mio board.
Mio board transfers READY commands to FnD board and CnD board, and checks each
boards. After checking, Mio board gives the feed-back to OP console. When FnD board
has a problem, ERROR FILA, PRO-I, PRO-P, or PRO-O shows up on the console. When
CnD board has a problem, ERROR CHA shows up.
(In this section we only explain about Mio boards, and the other boards will be treated in
other sections.)

2. Error (related with Mio board)

 Error ROTOR
Error Rotor shows up when rotor in the tube doesn’t run properly. There are two reasons of
this matter.
- When the rotor in the Tube actually doesn’t run. This case can be happened when the
required electricity for rotor is not provided. Misconnection of Rotor cable can bring
this result.
- When Error Rotor shows up, although the rotor runs well. This case is considered as
the rotor sensor problem.

 Solution
When the rotor in the Tube actually doesn’t run
- F701 (250V10A Fuse) Check for AC COM signal.
- Error Rotor happens when Rotor Start Capacitor doesn’t works properly. Please check
Rotor Start Capacitor connection (P706 Check for 250VAC)
- For checking whether or not the required electricity flows to Rotor, please check P703

Measuring Resistance
Point Result
C-M 27.5 Ω

- If the measured resistance is not like above, it means Rotor connection is wrong. So,
please reconnect the Tube side cables like below picture.

- For more accurate verification, Please check the contact of the Handle bar
connector. The cable (which is connected to the handle bar) comes from Mio board. If
it’s not connected properly, it effects to Mio board functioning.

When Error Rotor shows up, although the rotor runs well.

Check the below points, because Mio board has a problem to sensor Rotor.
When you measure the voltage of TP105 and 106, it should be 1.5V with pushing
READY, and 1.5V becomes 0.5 ~ 0.7V soon. (READY time is very short. So please
attention when you measure) If voltage is not like above, please turn VR701 for
TP105and VR702 for TP106.

 5. Mio board

 DOOR error

In the connector PCB (Terminal Block, GC-340 board) in HF Generator, DOOR ports are under Tube Support
Unit section – factory setting is short-circuited by a jumper. If it is open circuit, the generator would produce
Err DOOR when it is power ON.

This should be short circuited..!!

And check Mio board wiring also (see next

page)

If this is not working, just make a jumper wire between DOOR & GND

23
6. CnD board

1. Function and Principle

Main capacitor charge the voltage for X-ray exposure.
Charging is done by 2 steps.

(This picture is for three phase)

 First Charge
When you push READY on the OP console, READY signal flows to Mio board and then to CnD
board. CnD board begins to charge according to Ready signal.
- 380VAC from Circuit breaker flows directly to CnD board. And then it is commutated to
520VDC by bridge diode. Main capacitor is charged with the 520VDC.
- In case of 32 or 40kW generator, the Charge voltage is 310~350VDC
- If 520VDC is provided properly, it means that main capacitor is well charged by 75kHZ.
- With the first charge, 70% of main capacitor is charged.

 Second Charge
When you push EXPOSURE on the OP console, EXPOSURE signal flows to CnD board and
then to Mio board. CnD board begins to charge according to EXPOSURE signal.
- If the first charge is done well, 220VAC which is changed by transformer is used for running
the magnetic switch of CnD board.
- After the first charge, the second charge is available with turning on the Magnetic switch.
- After the second charge, the voltage in the main capacitor flows to HV tank when IGBT on
the FnD board is turned on.
- Main capacitor sends voltage to HV tank. HV tank boosts the voltage as much as it needs,
up to max. 125kV or 150kV. And then HV tank send the voltage to the filament of tube.

24
6. CnD board

CND board

 Frequency feedback
As informed above, the charged voltage in the main capacitor is shown as 75kHZ or 6V.

Standard point Standard point Standard point

75kHz↓ 75kHz 75kHz↑

Low voltage Input voltage High voltage

520↓, 380↓ 520VDC, 380VAC 520↑, 380↑

Ideal voltage

As above diagram, the best status of voltage is 380VAC.

Therefore, you can check the status of the voltage for capacitor with measuring 75kHZ or 6V.
If the voltage is lower than 520V (520V needs for the first charge), Error CHA can show up. If
25
6. CnD board

it’s not available to supply 520VDC, you can adjust 75kHz or 6V to the voltage at site. With this
process, you can solve Error CHA.

If, the voltage is over 550VDC for the first charge, Error CHA shows up, and you will get the
result over 75kHZ or 6V. You can solve Error CHA with setting it as 75kHz or 6V. 75kHz and 6V
is the best status for charge.

 Note!
Before going deep into CnD board itself, it is fully necessary to make sure about main input power.
Since most of CHA errors are coming with lack of input power (specially at Voltage)
Check if CHA error comes intermittently… if yes, need to check input power side first in the room
main circuit breaker facility. X-ray room should provide correct main circuit breaker with appropriate
power voltage.

If CHA error comes during booting sequence, please pay attention to CnD board capacitor charging
block. (CnD board input & output)

If CnD board does not produce 75kHz, system considers there is input power problem and does not
continue main capacitor charge process, and booting will stop then creates Err CHA.

26
6. CnD board

2. Error related with CnD board

 Error CHA
Reason for Error CHA
- When CnD board doesn’t work well
Please check each part on CnD board. If something doesn’t works well, CnD board needs
to be replaced.
Error CHA may shows up, if the signal doesn’t flows well from Mio board to CnD board. In
this case, you need to check the cable between Mio board and CnD board (FLAT CABLE
Connection)

- When input voltage (which goes to Capacitor) is not correct

If the frequency feedback is not 75kHZ, Error CHA can happen.
If Bridge diode cannot commutate the voltage, DC cannot flow to main capacitor. In this
case Error CHA can show up.

 Solution
- When CnD board doesn’t work well
 Please check 5V between TP805 – TP803 on the CnD board before turning on
the OP console. If 5V is checked, the 5V is converted to 15V through DC-DC
converter. If it’s converted well to 15V, D817 LED (green) lights up. If the LED
doesn’t light up, the board needs to be replaced.
 And then please turn on the OP console, and check the input voltage in P803 on
the CnD board. (If single phase, it should be 220VAC, if three phase it should be
380VAC)
 You need to check 220V which runs Magnetic switch, to find out whether Magnetic
switch works well or not.
Finally please check 12V between TP804 – TP803, which is for running Relay

- When input voltage (which goes to Capacitor) is not correct

 Regarding Error CHA, frequency is the cause which happens most frequently.
Different frequency feedback result may comes out, because the input voltage is
changed according to the electricity in each hospitals. You can adjust TP803 &
802 as 75kHz after checking frequency.
If you have not the frequency tester, please measure and adjust the voltage
between VFC IN and U804 cover(chassis) as 6V.
For adjusting the frequency, like below picture, you need to turn VR801 with
keeping pushing L.Volt switch. Turn VR802 with keeping pushing C.Volt switch as
well.
Those two frequency should be 75khZ or 6V, to solve Err. CHA.
 If fuse 801 is dead, bridge diode doesn’t work well. You need to replace the Fuse
801.

Main Transformer check points

; if main input voltage to HF Generator is lower than 205VAC, it would not transfer quality 220V to CnD board
then CnD board will produce Err CHA because the the board is not having operational power.

Since Main Transformer is making discount little bit from input and make output 5~8% less power to each
board because when input power is over 240VAC, the supplying voltage to boards without discount can
damage the boards.

If main input power voltage is weak, you can adjust Main Transformer output ports as follow. (please find the
main transformer location at page 4)

Err CHA in PSU version

A. Problem details
Error CHA” appears when it is turned ON.

B. What to check
1. Check if circuit breaker is OFF on the rear side of generator. If it is OFF, turn it ON – battery power does
not come to generator with the circuit breaker OFF and makes Errror ‘CHA’ (please see the picture below)

2. Actual charge error

- Time of usage : when you make quick X-ray exposure after turn ON, the error could be happened.

 Problem with tube

- TUBE check point

Connect HV cable to tube side only, and measure resistor value on the tip at the other end of cable (HV
Tank side) – open the HV cable from HV tank in generator. Measure it from Cathode cable (-)

Test
R(Ω)
Point
S-C 0.1Ω or less
S-L 0.1Ω or less
L-S 0.1Ω or less
S : Small Focus , L : Large Focus , C : Common

If the resistor value is not O.K, it is necessary to replace whole HV cable and test the same again. (in order
to check if HV cable itself) – sometimes, ‘Err FILA’ is coming along with HV cable badness or loosen
connection.

Take the Cathode (-) cable out from

the HV Tank, then measure the
resister value of Common – Large –
Small….

If the resistor () value is not quite big, the inside contact is being considered as good.

Sometimes, the resistor values come strange due to HV cable problem itself.

Once you remove the collimator, you can see Filament light by your own eyes. Above photo is the
light of Small Filament (normal situation)
Generally, the light is very bright during READY, so in case the Filament is not getting bright, there is
a problem to be fixed. Following photo shows ‘Large’ filament.

- Error PRO-F
Filament is working actually but the current engaging to Filament is too high. (Current Over
Error)
The VR should be adjusted. Before doing this, check if the unit is working correctly at low
kV & mA like 40kV, 100mA…. If the problem has shown at high kV & mA, it is necessary to
make No.3 action first..

 PSU check

What to check on PSU battery pack.

● it is necessary to find out the cause of the problem on PSU board.
● Before you change PSU Board, we must check if Battery module itself is O.K or not. Otherwise, we will
have the same problem again with a new PSU board.
● Please check the Battery pack as you see below points, and send the checking result to us quickly.

● How to check
1) Turn off the machine completely. (POWER OFF).
2) Measure the output voltage from pin to pin…. See the normal range of voltage at each point in the
table below.
- All the pins (1-2, 2-3, 3-4, 4-5, …… 10-11, 11-12, 12-13, 13-14) should give 24~26VDC outputs.
- Please tell me its output voltages. . voltage between pin 1 & 14 should be 320~360VDC

Point Result to be
12 24~26VDC
23 24~26VDC
34 24~26VDC

13  14 24~26VDC
1  14 320~360VDC

PSU check

 Check all fuses are O.K, if one or more fuses are blown, need to check nearby IC on black
heat sink. If a IC is dead, it would kill the fuse again.

 Even 350VDC is coming O.K from PSU board, Generator can still produce Err CHA. In this
case, remove the connection from battery packs (2 layers) then check the same
measurement from 1 to 14 ports on PSU board.

 There are 15 LEDs on the board, once AC power connected, all LED would be ON. And when
power cord is off, LED 1 & 8 will be OFF. Other LEDs are ON as long as battery packs are
good.
