1.2 Requirements
If the “Initial Setup” window appears, proceed as described under list point 5.
( Fig. 8 Page 26)
Depending on what is configured here, the required Configuration menus are cre‐
ated for the selected options and provide the corresponding configuration parame‐
ters.
4. Click on Next in the “Action Bar”.
- If no change/s have been made:
The Configuration Home Menu appears.
- If change/s have been made:
The “Initial setup” window appears.
5. Initial Setup window:
Fig. 8: Sample of Initial Setup
When the syngo-based system is configured for the first time (only in the factory dur‐
ing system startup) or if an option was added/removed in the “List of system op‐
tions”, the service software will guide the CSE through the necessary mandatory con‐
figuration procedure/s.
Click on Next.
The guided configuration procedure starts.
By clicking again on Next, move step by step through the guided configuration proce‐
dure/s to perform the necessary mandatory configuration/s.
6. When finished, use Home in the “Function Bar” to close the Configuration and go
back to the Service Home menu. Do not close the Configuration menu with the “X”
button of the Windows window!
7. Make the changes valid.
If the information “restart application pending” appeared, the decision box
to initiate a reboot pops up. Click on “now” to reboot the system.
Entries in the mandatory fields ( 1/Fig. 9 Page 28) must be correct. This is important for
sufficient node registration if “System Management” is enabled.
1. XA = AX Modality
All fixed items in this screen are set automatically during software installation and by se‐
lecting the appropriate System type in the “System Options” menu ( 1/Fig. 7 Page 25).
System
n Serial No
This field is mandatory. It may not include any characters other than numbers from 0
to 9. The number may not have a “leading zero”! The contents of the serial number
are checked according to the selected System Type in the “System Options” win‐
dow. ( 1/Fig. 7 Page 25)
n Station Name
Any desired name can be entered as a station name as long as it meets the following
criteria and restrictions: Enter up to 16 characters, “ \ ” may not be used.
Usually the node name (= computer name) of your product is used.
The Station Name is displayed on all images acquired by this system/station.
Nothing special has to be considered when changing the Station Name. Perform a
new syngo system and configuration backup.
Service
n Remote Service Center ( Checking the Customer Specific Location and System Da‐
ta / AXA6-SRS.843.01)
Choose either Europe, Asia or USA depending of the continent where the system is
located. Choose “(Please Select Value)” if no Remote Service Center is connected.
Test(not_for_Customer_Site) is only for factory use!
The entry of the RDIAG server used must also be performed manually under Auto Report
4.1.2.1 Time zone (date & time) settings, NTP Time Server not activated
Use > to advance to this page:
Fig. 10: Site Info, Step 2
n Time zone
Select the appropriate time zone from the drop-down menu.
n NTP Time Server
The NTP Time Server activate check box is not checked.
- Check the Time Zone , Date and Time and, if needed, adapt them manually here.
n Daylight Time
Automatic switch of daylight time / standard time should always be configured, if ap‐
plicable.
n Date
This config item appears only if the NTP Time Server activate check box is not
checked.
Check the Time Zone and Date: If needed, adapt them manually here.
The date can be set back a max. of one day.
With correction of the date by more than one day, an appropriate error message is
sent out and the entry is rejected.
n Time
This config item appears only if the NTP Time Server activate check box is not
checked.
Check the Time. If needed, adapt it here manually.
4.1.2.2 Time zone (date & time) settings, NTP Time Server activated
Make sure that all the steps as listed in the previous section “Time zone (date & time)
settings, NTP Time Server not activated” were performed. ( Time zone (date & time) set‐
tings, NTP Time Server not activated / Page 30)
Reason:
The time must be set manually at least once!
1. The AXIS time is synchronized with the NTP time server only during bootup or Applica‐
tion Restart. Systems which always run through without getting switched off can indi‐
cate time differences, depending on the run time and clock drift.
2. Synchronization takes place only if the time difference is not more than 10 minutes.
The service technician must set the time manually so that it does not differ by more
than ± 10 minutes. Then the time will be synchronized after the next Reboot or Appli‐
cation Restart.
3. Comment: There are detailed event log entries from these processes which state
whether or not synchronization took place and about how much the time difference
there was to the server before and after synchronization.
n NTP Time Server
If the intention is to use the NTP Time Server, proceed as follows:
a) Make sure that the time was set manually at least once within a ± 10 minute
range.
b) Check the NTP Time Server activate check box.
The following screen appears:
Fig. 11: Site Info menu, Time zone with NTP Time Server
A check is performed to determine if the time provided by the NTP server is within
the date and time range of the application licenses. If not, the NTP Server will not be
accepted.
d) Click on Save.
When the time server is configured and the changes are saved, it is possible sporadi‐
cally that the window
“Message from webpage” ( Fig. 12 Page 33)
pops up and the NTP Server setup fails.
Fig. 12: Message from the webpage (NTP)
Work-around:
1. Set the time manually once again. It may not differ by more than ± 2 minutes.
2. Repeat the NTP setup and save the changes.
The NTP setup should now be successful.
4.2.1 Identification
During initial startup, the “Computer name” must be reassigned under “Identification”.
The Computer name (= Host name) identifies the system in the network .
n Restrictions regarding the Computer Name:
- It must be in agreement with the local network administrator!
- It must be unique in the network!
- Only capital letters may be used!
- Enter 1 to 15 characters
- Do not use special characters ; : " < > * + = \ | ? ,
- Do not use the “_” (underscore) character, as it can cause problems (even if it is
possible to enter it).
- Avoid using the “-” (minus) character, as it could cause problems (even if it is
possible to enter it).
- Do not use only numerical characters.
4.2.2 Adapter
A maximum of three network adapters can be selected in the “select name” box in the
IVS:
Fig. 14: TCP/IP LAN adapters
With the AXCS (internal) network adapter, the “default gateway IP address 10.1.1.4”
must be deleted with del. See the procedure in the Software Installation Instruction.
If the IP address 192.xxx.x.x (the default from the factory or from the software CD) is
already present, it must be deleted with del. Then the IP address can be entered here by
the customer and accepted with add.
4.2.3 IP Address
1. Obtain an IP address from DHCP server
If Obtain an IP address from DHCP server is selected and thus Specify an IP address
(default) is to be deselected, the entry for the “Default Gateway” must first be deleted
with del.
2. Specify an IP address
Normally select this option (DHCP is not available or not used). The following three
input boxes will then appear:
- IP address
- Subnet mask
- gateways
3. IP address
With entry of the IP address, subnet mask or a gateway address, a “0” may never be en‐
tered at the beginning of the four-digit numerical group.
Correct: 221. 45. 1. 1 / Incorrect: 221.045.001.01
Result of an incorrect entry: No “MedCom pending” and reboot when exiting the service
software using Home. The next time a bootup is performed, the application software
cannot be completely downloaded and initialized.
Action to correct the error:
1. If possible, boot the system.
2. Start the service software.
3. Delete the inadmissible IP address with del.
4. Then enter the correct IP address and accept it with add.
If the IP address 192.xxx.x.x (the default from the factory or from the software CD) is
already present, it must be deleted.
Process Reason
System Startup at the Cus‐ When shipped, the IP address is entered by the production
tomer's Location line.
System Software Installation When the software is downloaded (TCP/IP LAN is not re‐
stored!), the default IP address from the software CD is al‐
ready entered here.
4. Subnet mask
Enter the subnet mask data for each adapter, if applicable.
5. gateways
Enter the Gateway data, if applicable.
- DICOM (external) Network (Network Area for Remote Targets).
Before “Obtain an IP address from DHCP server” is selected, the “Default Gateway”
must be deleted here with del.
- AXCS (internal) Network (for internal AXIOM Artis system Network Area).
If filled in here, the “default gateway IP Adresse 10.1.1.4” must be deleted.
4.2.4 WINS
1. Primary WINS server
Enter the IP address of the primary WINS server here.
2. Secondary WINS server
Enter the IP address of the secondary WINS server here.
3. Enable DNS for Windows Resolution
Not used for Artis one systems. Do not activate the check box!
4. Enable LMHOSTS Lookup
Activate the check box, e.g. click on it and set a checkmark. This function is enabled
for Artis one systems.
4.2.5 DNS
Do not configure a DNS (Domain Name Server) if it is not available; otherwise, you may
experience problems during startup of Windows 7.
1. Domain
The DNS name entered should be used as the “Computer name”.
2. DNS service search order
The search order of the DNS service is configured here.
Choose an existing IP address from the drop-down list field or enter the address in the
other field and click on add to append a new IP address to the drop-down list.
4.2.6 IPv6
Mark the “Configure IPv6” check box if the system is connected to a network environ‐
ment using an IP address server with the new IP address range, Version 6.
One of these two methods for how to obtain an IP address must be chosen:
of the corresponding valid IPv6 address will always fail and the error message ’Host is
not alive’ is displayed:
4.3 Routing
Routing is required to establish the connection to the the SRS (SIEMENS Remote Server).
The route to the “SRS gateway” (SRS Router) is configured here.
Procedure for making Changes: ( Doing changes in syngo SW Modules / Page 361)
Fig. 15: Static Route Configuration
Routing Configuration
1. Configure Gateway
The SRS Help Desk must be informed when there is a “Server Network Address Transla‐
tion” (S-NAT). It must then perform the necessary configurations on the SRS portal.
( SRS Help Desk / Page 371)
b) Outside NAT:
NAT = Network Address Translation
- The listed Access Server is the back-end server for the RDiag functionali‐
ties. In some cases, the network administration allows only its own address
range, which would consequently suppress any traffic with the original IP ad‐
dress. Therefore, the NAT check box must be checked and addresses in the al‐
lowed address range must be entered for each server.
- How to determine whether there is a Outside NAT used:
There is no check available. Outside NAT (= Server NAT) requires major
changes to the SRS configuration that start in the router configuration. There‐
fore it should be communicated to the CSE prior to performing the SRS config‐
uration.
c) “Remote Service Center”
The parameters are already set by the configuration under ““Site Info””.
Click on Test to check whether the static route to the Remote Service Center is
working.
2. Click on Control Rip Listener.
The following menu appears:
Fig. 16: Control RIP Listener
a) RIP Listener:
RIP = Routing Information Protocol)
- Check the RIP Listener check box only when making an initial router configura‐
tion.
- The RIP Listener is an implemented tool to compile routing information on the
network and automatically corrects the routing tables.
- If RIP Listener is configured, the RIP information is compiled in the network for
a maximum of 15 min. after starting the system, then it is automatically set to
inactive.
To keep from having to always update the route information in the system, the
RIP Listener must be deactivated following a successful router configuration.
- Remove the checkmark in the RIP Listener check box after a successful ini‐
tial router configuration!
4.4 Users
The “Users” menu makes it possible to set the account name and password for the local
system application and the password for the local PPP account.
Procedure for making Changes: ( Doing changes in syngo SW Modules / Page 361)
Fig. 17: Users menu
A check must be performed to ensure that the correct keyboard driver is installed before
entering passwords in this screen.
One of the following two methods can be used for this check:
n Open a “Notepad” window and write the password there
n Write the password, e.g. in the “Account for UI” line
In both cases, check whether the password is correctly written.
Password:. See the AX PASSWORD LIST, Speed Info ID 14522 in the CS Knowledge
Base. The password depends on the computer name. ( Password Rules / Page 43)).
Always place a checkmark in this check box! The AXIS Smart always uses Auto login.
If the computer name is changed in the TCP/IP LAN menu, the checkmark is automatically
removed for Default Password and the password is entered in the or give Password box.
In other words, the old password is still valid.
However if Default Password is checked, the new password applies according to the
password rules.
Example:
If the computer name is changed, e.g. from medpc to CARD, @medUserARD results as
the new password for the “medUser” (@medPPPARD) user for the PPP User).
However these passwords are active only if the Default Passwort box is checked.
4.6 Modality
Procedure for making Changes: ( Doing changes in syngo SW Modules / Page 361)
Modality Configuration
n MultiModality System
Check the “MultiModality System” check box if you want to retrieve work lists for the
XA and RF modalities.
With Multi-modality, both modalities can be selected and configured in the user set‐
tings (HIS/RIS Pat. Reg.).
This has no influence on image objects, they will always be sent with the XA modality.
n Modality
- “Any” is always selected.
- For AX systems, normally configure only the “XA” modality!
n Query Modalities
- “Any” can be selected.
-For AX systems, normally configure only the “XA” modality!
For AX systems, normally configure only the XA modality!“Any” is always selected.
Do not change the default settings of the 3 configuration items!!
All 3 check boxes must be checked.

ses are automatically set to Yes. It must then be saved with Save.
n If the “System config” is exited, “Config Check” starts automatically. If due to the new
licenses it is necessary to download the corresponding Config data and/or software to
the components, an appropriate “Component Error” will always appear.
In this case, click on AutoConf in the “Action Bar” in the “Config Check” menu. All re‐
quired components will then be configured automatically. As an alternative, each
component can also be selected manually under “Artis Components” and configured.
If the “Config Check” menu is exited, “Version Check” starts automatically once the
Next has been clicked on to display a conflict for the components that still require a
SW download.
If an optional HW component that requires a SW download has been installed, the
“SW-Download” may be performed only after making the change in the system config‐
uration. Then start Config Check again and download the Config data in the compo‐
nents that have been made ready using AutoConf.
All changes made automatically must be accepted with OK and saved with Save.
Repeat the “Config Check” as often as necessary and take appropriate corrective meas‐
ures until no more error messages appear!
The licenses for Artis one systems (VA10 SW) are shipped from SCM on CD media only.

7.1 General
Here, the application AETs of the local system and the general timeout settings for all
DICOM processes are defined.
Procedure for making Changes: ( Doing changes in syngo SW Modules / Page 361)
The default AET name is the computer name. Changing the computer name could also
change the AETs. A pop-up window lets you select that the AET also is changed.
The port number of the Study Transfer Provider (SCP) is 104. The port numbers of
the HIS/RIS and PRINT SCUs are not relevant because they change with each associa‐
tion and are not required for configuration.
- Print (SCU)
Configure as required.
1. DICOM default character set
The “DICOM default character set” that is used when a new patient is registered is
configured here.
- Select “Latin Alphabet No1” (= ISO_IR 100) from the drop-down list.
These settings should be changed only if unavoidable (e.g. for HIS/RIS/CIS).
Available choices: “Default Repertoire”, “Latin Alphabet No. 1”, “Japanese, Ka‐
takana”, “Unicode” and “Chinese”
- Check the Allow character set extension (= Multiple Character Sets) check box
only for the Japanese character set configuration.
Make sure that Sensis and Artis one both have the same character set “Latin Alphabet
No1” configured and that the “Allow character set extension” check box is not checked/
marked for both.
ses problems, first an attempt should be made to change the HIS/RIS/CIS system appro‐
priately. If this is not possible, or is not permitted, or involves too many modalities, the
DICOM default character set in the AXIS can be changed. Following changes, check the
AXIS and the HIS/RIS/CIS network for proper functionality.
2. DICOM Query
- Check the Rearrange Character set check box.
When this check box is enabled, an incorrect character set is corrected.
Factory Default: “Checkbox not checked”
If the Rearrange Character Set check box is checked, multiple character sets can be
used. This is especially useful for the Japanese character set. In this case, a single byte
set is added to the Japanese character set. This single byte is necessary in DICOM to re‐
place defined ASCII characters / strings (e.g. “M” for male for the patient´s sex). Accord‐
ing to DICOM, a “Single Byte” must always be at the beginning. If a multi-Byte is at the
beginning of the character set, this can be corrected by selecting Rearrange Character
Set.

can be defined per system. The defined device is marked as default in the device
table with an icon in the last column (DefArch).
e) Recording Speed
The recording speed of the selected device can be configured at “half speed” or
“maximum” (full) speed
5. Once the configuration of a CD-RW drives is concluded here under “Offline Devices”,
perform “Utilities > Source Tune CD Burning for the drive/s” in the “Service Home
menu”. Only then can the drive/s be used!
6. If a Sensis is connected to Artis one:
If different character sets are configured in Artis one and Sensis, there will be prob‐
lems when burning the patients registered from Sensis for archiving on CD-R/DVD-R
on Artis one.
- Make sure that the same character set is configured in both the Sensis and Artis
one, e.g. “Latin Alphabet No1”.
- Make sure that the “Allow character set extension” check box is not checked/
marked in both the Sensis and Artis one.
Exception:
Select the Allow character set extension (= Multiple Character Sets) check box
only if the Japanese character set is configured.

node.
4. Supported DICOM services
For a description, see the section: ( Supported DICOM Services / Page 85)
Storage
Default: Not checked
When this DICOM service, SCP (Storage Class Provider) is selected, parameters are shown
for configuration.
n Transfer Syntax
Default: All selected
- Implicit Little Endian
Implicit (without) value representation (string, integer, date, etc.)
Little Endian is a synonym for sending the least significant bit first (byte swap)
This configuration item only effects the Transfer Syntaxes proposed for use in send‐
ing images to the selected DICOM node. It has no effect on image quality.
Examine the DICOM Conformance Statement of the DICOM node for supported
transfer syntaxes.
Implicit Little Endian cannot be deselected.
- Explicit Little Endian:
Explicit (with) value representation (string, integer, date, etc.)
Little Endian is a synonym for sending the least significant bit first (byte swap)
Explicit Little Endian can be deselected.
n Compression
Default: All selected
- JPEG Lossy
- JPEG Lossless
The types of compression enabled here can be selected in the User UI, Options “Artis
one Configuration Panel” under the “Transfer” icon. ( Transfer (Artis one - Configu‐
ration Panel) / Page 331)
by the customer to configure the compression type for image data transmission to the
network.
Examine the DICOM Conformance Statement of the DICOM node for supported Com‐
pression types.
Standard compression type is “JPEG Lossless”.
If the Artis one is integrated into a network (e.g. ACOM.net), both JPEG Lossless and
JPEG Lossy are enabled. Reason: “JPEG Lossy” is also used for special applications here
(e.g. use of the AXIS CD-ROM drive to transfer ultrasound images over the ACOM.net,
etc.).
- Important: Prior to beginning each image data transfer, the customer must make abso‐
lutely sure that the correct compression mode is selected.
- Important for Auto Archiving: If, for example, after completing a “JPEG Lossy” data
transfer (special case!), a reset to “JPEG Lossless” is not made, all new scenes that are
subsequently made will be archived in the ACOM.Net with a compression that is not
wanted. This can lead to problems.
- To avoid operating errors: Do not enable “JPEG Lossy” unless the customer requires it!
n Default Node
Default: Not default node
- not default node
- first default node
One node can be tagged as the Default Node. The First Default will be displayed sepa‐
rately in the menu "Transfer Send to ..." (outside the drop-down). It also will be dis‐
played as an icon in the tool bar of the Patient Browser to enable one-click transfer. In

n Notes ( ):
Without changes, the menu for LUT File Setting shows the syngo default for the Correc‐
tion LUT (setting not recommended).
With the Correction LUT, the image impression on the printout is slightly different /
brighter than on the GSDF monitor (does not conform to DICOM Part 14).
With the Presentation LUT, the image impression on the printout and on the monitor
should be the same using the released settings and HCC data.
With the Presentation LUT / Barten Cameras setting, the modality uses the Presentation
SOP class with the IDENTITY attribute, which must be supported by each connected cam‐
era.
Each change of the modality LUT method may require additional printer settings. A print‐
er setting for the use of the Presentation LUT may overrule / reset other printer LUT set‐
tings for this modality.
For more details about dependencies, restrictions and settings, refer to Installation and
Startup of the hardcopy cameras. ( Hardcopy Camera Information, VA10
SW / AXA6-000.814.03)
The GSDF will be performed in the modality instead in the DICOM camera. The image
data will be corrected by an internal modality Presentation LUT.
Each DICOM camera has to be set to LINEAR LUT.

The Low Dose Acquisition can be used as substitute for fluoroscopy for heavier patients
to improve the IQ.
A low dose acquisition program (e.g. Card at 80 nGy) is available as an alternative to a
fluoro program (in addition to a normal acquisition program) where the reference air ker‐
ma limitation limits the dose so that improved IQ is obtained for heavier patients. This ac‐
quisition program is started with a separate footswitch pedal (pedal 4 on the upper lev‐
el) without selecting it separately, because it is part of the organ program already selec‐
ted (OGP/Exam Set).
This function is available for every Organ Program/Exam Set (e.g. DR, DSA, Card, etc.).
except for special modes such as 3D or PERI Exam Sets.
With this alternative ACQ programmed footswitch pedal, e.g. a DR single shot can be trig‐
gered and it is also possible to trigger it with the normal exposure footswitch pedal 2, Acq
series.

n It is a special-purpose OGP with quick access by means of the footswitch.
n It can only be activated using the footswitch (special configuration. required).
n It is a shadow OGP, which is distributed with selection of the exam set.
n It has a quick activation time.
n The alternative ACQ OGP functionality is not an option and therefore no license key is
required.
n The feature is enabled after the footswitch is configured appropriately (Service/System
Configuration./Footswitch).
n For safety reasons, the lower footswitch pedals cannot be used.
n Place any Card, DR, DSA that is not part of the exam set next to the FL Triplet. Special
modes (e.g. DYNA, 3D, Peri, etc.) will not work.
n It is possible to configure the “complete flag” handling separately for alternative OGP
images under Service/Imaging System/Transfer. Only images with the “complete flag”
will be sent with the auto transfer to PACS.
n Due to HW reasons, automatic injector release with an alternative OGP is not possible.

If the accumulated reference air kerma has exceeded the low/medium/high thresh‐
old, then:
- the system controller (SYC) sends REP_BEEP 'On' via the AXCS to sound the alarm.
- The IAS flashes the displayed "actual skin dose rate" or "accumulated skin dose" val‐
ue on the Live display(s) at a frequency of 2 Hz.
- The IVS and EHC display the skin dose warning “Acc. Skin Dose has excee
ded predefined limit of… mGy” and enable the "Acknowledge button".
The beeper warning sound is the same for all thresholds and is the same as the “tube too
hot” warning. The sound continues until the user confirms the message (similar the fluoro
timer) that appears on EHC and system console.
The alerting audible signal can be generally enabled/disabled according to the customer’s
wish, see: ( Audible warnings / Page 284)
The threshold is shown in the message text on the on EHC and system console and has to
be confirmed by the user. Only then will the warning sound stop.
Example:
The user does not want to exceed or is urged to stay below an accumulated skin dose,
e.g. 5000 mGy for a patient, because otherwise a regulatory authority has to be notified.
To ensure that the customer is informed during the patient examination about the pro‐
gress of the actual accumulated skin dose before the limit is reached, e.g. a low threshold
3000 mGy, a medium threshold 4000 mGy and a high threshold 4500 mGy can be config‐
ured.
If the existing cabling does not match the requested configuration, the discrep‐
ancy will be shown under Status:

Reason why the captued images can look different from the original images:
When capturing Video Images, the resulting Image Pixel Data are subject to an automated
scaling process.
Due to this, scaling the captured images can look different from the original images, e.g.:
- the general image impression can be changed
- lines are thinner than before or even disappear
- colors fade

yes The QRS trigger is evaluated and created internally by the new ECG module. The
external QRS trigger is not locked in and used.
The OEM ECG system can provide an external digital trigger, but is not required
to, since the Artis one is capable of generating the R-peak trigger internally by an‐
alyzing the provided analog ECG signal.
The internally generated trigger was developed and validated for uncritical heart
rhythm (sinus rhythm) only. This means it may not be applied for a disturbed
heart rhythm. The customer cannot expect that the performance is identical to
that of an ECG system such as Sensis/Dräger.
This parameter is used to activate the new functions of the Enhanced ECG-Mod‐
ule. If this parameter is set to the default value no, the new Enhanced ECG-Mod‐
ule acts like the old ECG Module.
no The external QRS trigger is locked in and used. The QRS trigger is not evaluated
and created internally by the new ECG module. Default: no
This is the preferred solution!
Generating a digital trigger from the analog ECG curve should be configured only
if the ECG device does not provide a digital trigger (QRS pulse).
yes The EASI board is installed in the back of the stand column. Default: yes

Yes The display of “Collision Help” is enabled on the DDIS XP. Default: No
If a mechanical collision of the system occurs during a movement, a “Help ar‐
row” appears in the DDIS XP that is shown in the display on the DCS. This arrow
advises the customer about what movement must be made in which direction
to move the system out of the collision.
The time for how long the Display collision help graphics is displayed is con‐
figured in the OSD > Local DDIS parameters config. item. ( Local DDIS pa‐
rameters / Page 250)
50% The speed in the patient safety zone is 50% of the max. speed
30% The speed in the patient safety zone is 30% of the max. speed. Default: 30%
This is a hidden parameter and therefore is not shown to the CSE!
Yes/No is automatically set by the Tune Up SW, depending on the Tune Up result.
An optional contact safety switch on the stand column is required if the stand is installed
in an extremely small room and therefore the head-end wall safety distance must be de‐
creased to <500 mm. In this case, an optional contact safety switch must be installed on
the stand column cover during the installation and startup of the system. Refer to the In‐
stallation Startup Document.
The “Column Back side Proxy” configuration is used by the Stand Tune-up SW to config‐
ure whether or not this optional stand column cover with contact safety switch is instal‐
led on the stand column.
No Standard installation, the room size is sufficient. The head-end wall safety dis‐
tance is ≥ 500 mm.
The contaft safety switch is NOT configured. The size of smallest zone is 500
mm and movement is stopped (i.e. stop zone)
Default: No
Yes Installation in an extremely small room, the room size is insufficient. The
head-end wall safety distance is <500 mm.
The contaft safety switch is configured. The size of smallest zone is 310 mm
with a speed of 50% (no stop!)
The movement is stopped if the additional contact safety switch is reached/
pressed.
IMPORTANT:
The parameter here is set automatically by the Tune Up SW to Yes after a suc‐
cessful proxy switch test of the Column Back side Proxy switch.
If the proxy switch test was not successful, the No parameter is set automati‐
cally.
The proxy switch test is started in the Service SW under: “Tune Up > Compo‐
nent Adjustment Stand > Gantry Column Proximity”.
Yes If the FD contact safety device is activated, the FD moves in the opposite direc‐
tion (away from the patient). Prerequisites: The DMG is pressed and the end
position has not yet been reached. Default: Yes
No The collision must be eliminated using manually controlled movements.
Yes With table longitudinal movement in the direction of the C-Arm, the movement
of the tabletop is braked automatically to avoid a collision with the C-Arm. The
brakes are then released again automatically. This function can be switched off
here. Default: No
No Table longitudinal movement is stopped by the collision calculator.

specified by the SW), this functionality will be automatically canceled and the default
parameter which is configured here applies again.
The setting here depends on the customer's prefered working method.
The goal is that the majority of the movements that the customer uses should work
with the default functionality by deflecting the joystick while simultaneously pressing
the DMG, without the customer’s having to switch to another functionality.
Default: Cranial/Caudal
Fig. 175: SCM joystick functionalities
Attention: Beginning with Artis one SW VA10C, the ranges for the minimum wall distan‐
ces will change:

y1, the new planned range is: [....,5000]
y2, the new planned range is: [....,5000]
To determine the collision values, the distances from the table base to the room walls
(without cover) must be measured (in mm).
This procedure is described in the Startup Instructions for the Artis one system. ( Config‐
uration of the Room Size / AXA6-000.815.03)

If “stay unchanged” is configured: When there is a change in the zoom, there is no
change of the plate opening. Only the plate pair that touches the “edge of the im‐
age” is moved in when there is a zoom change.

plates move to the max. opening.
Fig. 185: Collimator behavior with configuration of "open to maximum"
13.4.2 FD Format M
Fig. 187: Collimator, FD Format M
The collimator opening for all zoom formats is set at the factory.
Adjustment by the service technician is necessary only if there is a replacement of the col‐
limator or the FD detector or if the customer requests this.
To determine the input values, see: ( Fluoroscopy Field Limitation and Electronic Shut‐
ter Adjustment / Page 378)
Thus personnel will be exposed to direct radiation if they are in the direct radiation field
behind the FD detector.
Therefore adjust the max. collimator opening with all Zoom formats so that the edges of
the collimator plates are still visible in the area of the image and are also not completely
covered by the electronic shutter.
Thus the patient will receive a higher radiation dose than necessary, because a portion
of the radiation field does not produce an image, i.e., cannot be used for diagnostic pur‐
poses.
Therefore adjust the max. collimator opening with all Zoom formats so that the edges of
the collimator plates are still visible in the area of the image and are also not completely

ally or completely covered by the plates. In this case (if necessary), there is a change
to the middle measuring field and measurement is only with this one.
If there is a case in which the middle measuring field is also partially covered by the
collimator plates, there is the following configuration:
YES Only the part (pixels) of the middle measuring field in the FD detector that is
not covered by the collimator plates is used for the measurement. Default: YES
In other words, the dose for the collimated field is not automatically increased
by the dose controller.

up Timeout” setting).
If the threshold is reached, first the backup/delta backups of the oldest Artis
one version available on the service drive will be deleted automatically by the
SW to free up disk space, then the automatic backup is started.
2. Manual Backup:
A backup is triggered manually by the CSE
If the threshold is reached, a “Selection Box” will open in which the CSE must
manually select which Artis one version backups/Delta backups the customer
wants to delete in order to free up space.

3. For each botton where the functionality was changed from the Default Layout to an‐
other layout in the service software ( EHC Button Configuration / Page 290), the ap‐
propriately matching EHC button icon label must be taken from the EHC button
field templates ( Fig. 246 Page 372) template sheet and installed/inserted into the
EHC button field cover (=EHC Inlay) ( Fig. 245 Page 372).

the service software for the “default functionalities (CARD user) layout”.
No EHC button icon label/s are inserted in the EHC button field cover
( Fig. 245 Page 372).
At the customer’s request, the CSE can re-program the button layout by changing the
configuration in the service software and at the same time insert the matching EHC
button icon label for the particular button. With the “Default Inlay”, this is possible
only for the 3 buttons of the left and the 3 buttons on the right side.
The OSD Examination Menu and OSD Postprocessing Menu as well as the Block Radia‐
tion and Block Movement button functionalities are fixed and cannot be changed.
If one of the 6 buttons in the center has to be reconfigured, the “Default Inlay” has to
be replaced with the “Alternative Layout”

n Configure up to 12 programmable buttons (depending on the inlay used).
At the customer’s request, the CSE can re-program the button layout by changing the
configuration in the service software ( EHC Button Configuration / Page 290) and at
the same time inserting the matching EHC button icon label for the concerned but‐
ton.
The OSD Examination Menu and OSD Postprocessing Menu as well as the Block Radia‐
tion and Block Movement button functionalities are fixed and cannot be changed.
- Default Inlay (shipped ex-factory):
The functionality of the 3 soft buttons on the left side and the 3 soft buttons on the
right side can be re-programmed.
With the Default Inlay, if one of the 6 buttons in the center has to be reconfigured,
the “Default Inlay” has to be replaced with the “Alternative Layout”
During this adjustment, the diagonal and the rectangular plates in the collimator are ad‐
justed so that they remain just visible in all formats as well as for both the min. and max.
SID. The electronic shutter is adjusted so that it just barely covers the collimator plates
when the collimator is opened or closed.
18.12.1.1 Preparations
n SID = 105 cm
n Format = Zoom 0
n Prefiltering = none
n IOB-E service radiation enable switch s1 = on
n Collimator = rectangular plates, completely open
18.12.1.2 Adjustment

2. Select (highlight) FD Format M for 26x30 FD in the “Select Group To Configure” win‐
dow.
3. Press the Config button.
The “Configuration of group FD Format M” screen appears:.
4. Adapt the values for width, height and diameter for Zoom 0 - Zoom 5. Always enter
the same value for width and height for zoom steps Zoom 1..... Zoom 5 .
5. Press the OK button to go back to the “Configuration of Collimator...” window.
6. Press the Save and Exit buttons to save the values.
X 7. Trigger fluoroscopy and check the fluoroscopy field limitation with all zoom steps at
the min. and max. SID.
8. Repeat the procedure until the rectangular plates remain just about visible at the edge
of the image.
Thus personnel will be exposed to direct radiation if they are in the direct radiation field
behind the FD detector.
Therefore, adjust the max. collimator opening with all zoom formats so that the edges of
the collimator plates are still visible in the area of the image and are also not completely
covered by the electronic shutter.
Thus the patient will receive a higher radiation dose than necessary, because a portion
of the radiation field does not produce an image, i.e., cannot be used for diagnostic pur‐
poses.
Therefore, adjust the max. collimator opening with all zoom formats so that the edges of
the collimator plates are still visible in the area of the image and are also not completely
covered by the electronic shutter.
Thus the patient will receive a higher radiation dose than is necessary because part of
the radiation field is not generating an image, e.g. it is not being used for diagnostic pur‐
poses.
Adjust the electronic shutter so that the edges of the collimator plates with all zoom for‐
mats are still visible in the area of the image and are not completely covered by the elec‐
tronic shutter.
1. Select in Local Service Configuration > Artis one Components Image System.
The screen “Configuration of Image Visualization System Image Acquisition
System A” appears.
2. Select (highlight) under “Select Group To Configure” configuration item System Cali‐
bration.
3. Press the Config button
The “Configuration of group System Calibration” screen appears:
Fig. 253: Image system, system calibration
4. Determine the value (Default: -12, Range: -20...+20) under Image Display [1] Shutter
Extra Pixels so that the collimator plates are visible inside the shutter. Use only zoom
steps 1 .- 5 for evaluation because, with the collimator open in zoom 0, the plates at
the edge of the shutter image are covered.
The parameter value for Shutter Extra Pixels has an effect on all zoom steps.
A more negative parameter value opens the shutter.
7. Repeat the procedure until the collimator plates are barely visible inside the shutter.
