Preface
Publication Conventions
Standardized conventions for representing information is a uniform way of communicating
information to a reader in a consistent manner. Conventions are used so that the reader can easily
recognize the actions or decisions that must be made. There are a number of character and
paragraph styles used in this publication to accomplish this task. Please become familiar with them
before proceeding forward.
It’s important that you read and understand hazard statements, and not just ignore them.

Section 1.0
Safety & Hazard Information
Proper product safety labeling allows a person to safely use or service a product. The format and
style for safety communications reflected in this publication represents the harmonization of IEC/
ISO 3864 and ANSI Z535 standards.
Within this publication, different paragraph and character styles are used to indicated potential
hazards. Paragraph prefixes, such as hazard, caution, danger and warning, are used to identify
important safety information. Text (Hazard) styles are applied to the paragraph contents that are
applicable to each specific safety statement.

1.1 Hazard Messages


Any action that will, could or potentially cause personal injury will be preceded by the safety alert
symbol and an appropriate signal word. The safety alert symbol is the triangle with an exclamation
mark within it. It’s always used next to the signal word to indicate the severity of the hazard.
Together, they are used to indicate a hazard exists.
Signal words describe the severity of possible human injures that may be encountered. The alert
symbol and signal word are placed immediately before any paragraph they affect. Safety
information includes:
1.) Signal Word - The seriousness level of the hazard.
2.) Symbol or Pictorial - The consequence of interaction with the hazard.
3.) Word Message:
a.) The nature of the hazard (i.e. the type of hazard)
b.) How to avoid the hazard.
The safety alert symbol is not used when an action can only cause equipment damage.

1.2 Text Format of Signal Words


DANGER - INDICATES AN IMMINENTLY HAZARDOUS SITUATION WHICH, IF
NOT AVOIDED, WILL RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY. THIS SIGNAL
WORD IS TO BE LIMITED TO THE MOST EXTREME SITUATIONS.
WARNING - INDICATES A POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS SITUATION WHICH, IF NOT
AVOIDED, COULD RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.
Caution - Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in
minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices.

Preface Page 23
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
NOTICE - Indicates information or a company policy that relates directly or indirectly to the
safety of personnel or protection of property. This signal word is associated directly with a
hazard or hazardous situation and is used in place of 'DANGER,' 'WARNING,' or 'CAUTION.'
It can include:
• Destruction of a disk drive
• Potential for internal mechanical damage, such as to a X-ray tube

Section 2.0
Publication Conventions
2.1 General Paragraph and Character Styles
Prefixes are used to highlight important non-safety related information. Paragraph prefixes (such
as Purpose, Example, Comment or Note) are used to identify important but non-safety related
information. Text styles are also applied to text within each paragraph modified by the specific
prefix.

EXAMPLES OF PREFIXES USED FOR GENERAL INFORMATION:


Purpose: Introduces and provides meaning as to the information contained within the chapter,
section or subsection (such as used at the beginning this chapter, for example).
Note: Conveys information that should be considered important to the reader.
Example: Used to make the reader aware that the paragraph(s) that follow are examples of information
possibly stated previously.

DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
2.3 Computer Screen Output/Input Text Character Styles
Within this publication, mono-spaced character styles (fonts) are used to indicate computer text
that’s either screen input and output. Mono-spaced fonts, such courier, are used to indicated text
direction. When you type at your keyboard, you are generating computer input. Occasionally you
will see the math operator “greater-than” and “less-than” symbols used to indicate the start and
finish of variable output. When reading text generated by the computer, you are reading it as
computer generated output. In addition to direction, characters are italicized (e.g. italics) to indicate
information specific to your system or site.
Example: This paragraph’s font represents computer generated screen “fixed” output.
Fixed Output Its output is fixed from the sense that it does not vary from application
to application. It’s the most commonly used style used to indicate
filenames, paths and text that do not change from system to system. The
character style used is a fixed width such as courier.
Example: This paragraph’s font represents computer screen output that is
Variable Output “variable”. It’s used to represent output that varies from application to
application or system to system. Variable output is sometimes found placed
between greater-than and less-than operators for clarification. For
example: <variable_ouput> or <3.45.120.3>. In both cases, the < and >
operators are not part of the actual input.
Example: This paragraph’s font represents fixed input. It’s computer input that is
Fixed Input typed-in via the keyboard. Typed input that does not vary from application
to application or system to system. Fixed text the user is required to
supply as input. For example: cd /usr/3p
Example: This paragraph’s font represents computer input that can vary from
Variable Input application to application or system to system. With variable text, the
user is required to supply system dependent input or information. Variable
input sometimes is placed between greater-than and less-than operators.
For example: <variable_input>. In these cases, the (<>) operators would
be dropped prior to input. For example: ypcat hosts | grep <3.45.120.3>
would be typed into the computer as
ypcat hosts | grep 3.45.120.3
without the greater-than and less-than operators.

2.4 Buttons, Switches and Keyboard Inputs (Hard & Soft Keys)
Different character styles are used to indicate actions requiring the reader to press either a hard or
soft button, switch or key. Physical hardware, such as buttons and switches, are called hard keys
because they are hard wired or mechanical in nature. A keyboard or on/off switch would be a hard
key. Software or computer generated buttons are called soft keys because they are software
generated. Software driven menu buttons are an example of such keys. Soft and hard keys are
represented differently in this publication.
Example: A power switch ON/OFF or a keyboard key like ENTER is indicated by applying a character style
Hard Keys that uses both over and under-lined bold text that is bold. This is a hard key.
Example: Whereas the computer MENU button that you would click with your mouse or touch with your hand
Soft Keys uses over and under-lined regular text. This is a soft key.

1.2.1.3 Subtraction (DSA)
Digital Subtraction Angiography is a digital radiological procedure for the isolated visualization of
blood vessels. Several trial exposures are taken first, to calculate and confirm the patient thickness.
The calculated patient thickness is then used to set up an exposure technique for the DSA run.

1.2.2 Digital Fluoro

1.2.2.1 Continuous
Operates with continuous x-ray tube current at 30 frames/second.

1.2.2.2 Pulsed
The x-ray radiation is turned on and off several times a second. This technique is used to reduce
the dose to the patient. Available pulse rate options are 3, 7½ or 15 frames/second.

1.2.3 Radiography (Overhead Tube)

1.2.3.1 AEC
Operator selects kV and mA. The ion-chambers, in the table bucky or wall stand, are used to

2.4 Digital System “Saturn”


The Digital System hardware is occasionally referred to as Saturn. The name Saturn and Digital
System is used interchangeably to mean the same hardware in the discussion that follows.
In early 2005, some Saturn circuit boards were redesigned and consolidated. The original Saturn
(2290479) is referred to as ’old style’ or ’ Saturn V1’, the redesigned Saturn (2407276) is referred
to as ’new style’ or ’Saturn V2’.

DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL

Figure 2-4 Digital System “Exploded View” (Saturn V1)

2.4.1.3 PCI Interface


The PCI interface allows the Saturn software to communicate with the system boards. Commands
through the PCI bus configure the boards for proper operation and transfer data from the boards to
the CPU memory. The PCI interface also provides the reset logic. Reset can come in from the
system RT Bus (initiated by the customer through the IUI) or the PCI Bus (initiated by the SBC as
part of the Saturn reset process). See Figure 2-3.

2.4.1.4 Image Bus


The Image Bus is a GEMS proprietary bus that moves data from circuit board to circuit board. The
Image bus is 1024x1024, 10 bit format at 40 MHz. See Figure 2-3.

2.4.1.5 Gitane Board


The Gitane board provides the system interface for Saturn. It provides the interface and
synchronization for the image chain timing, as well as providing the means of controlling the image
head through a CAN bus. In addition, it provides the means for Saturn to respond appropriately to
resets. RS422 Interface circuits provide the signal translation between the external and internal
signal levels for the timing signals needed to synchronize the image transfer at the CCU. Interface
circuits provide the appropriate signal translation between the external and internal signal levels for
the timing signals needed to synchronize the image transfer at the ICB. A relay contact is provided
to control record on/off for a VCR. Several types of signals exist on the RT Bus including 16 RS485
differential lines, and the system reset contact closure. This logic provides the appropriate interface
type for each of these signals. The system reset signal is sent on to the PCI interface logic, while
the other signals are used in the System Logic FPGA. This is a relay contact closure driven through
the PCI interface FPGA. This contact is connected through the PC backplane and enters the single
board computer through the multi-function connector. As such, when this contact closes, a full reset
will occur in the Saturn PC. See Figure 2-3.

2.4.1.6 Image Correction Board (ICB)


The Image Correction board is an off the shelf board from “Thales” that works together with the CCD
camera to deliver “corrected” digital images to the Saturn CCU board. See Figure 2-3.

Page 38 Section 2.0 - Systems Cabinet


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
2.4.1.7 Camera Control Unit (CCU)
The CCU contains all the circuitry necessary to receive a 12 bit digital image from the ICB and
output a pre-processed 10-bit digital image to the Image Acquisition Board. Pre-processing is real-
time and consists in frame buffer, ABD computation is user-programmable ROI, encoding LUT, and
digital re-scaling gain. See Figure 2-3.

2.4.1.8 Image Memory Board (IMB)


The Image Memory Board interfaces to the PCI bus and to the proprietary Image Bus. The IMB
contains 128 Mb of memory packaged in memory SIMMS. The Memory board is where Image data
is temporarily stored before being sent to the Hard disk or output on the Image Bus. When Digital
Record, Fluoro Store or Fluoro Loop images are acquired they are initially stored in the IMB before
being copied out and written to the Hard Disk.
When images are being retrieved from the Hard Disk for display on the monitor they are first written
to the IMB before being placed on the Image Bus, sent to the display board, and out to the monitor.
See Figure 2-3.

2.4.1.9 Image Display Board (IDB)


The Image Display Board is responsible for displaying the images during acquisition and image
review. Mounted on the IDB is the Max. Opacification Board (MOB). The display board is the output
video board for the Saturn Digital System. It has 2 identical composite 73 Hz analog BNC video
outputs. The display board contains circuitry to carry out functions such as subtraction, edge
enhancement and Window/Level. It is connected to both the Image Bus and PCI Bus. See Figure 2-
3.

2.4.1.10 Single Board Computer (SBC)


The Single Board Computer is a standard off the shelf CPU board. It contains the following
interfaces: PCI, ISA, Ethernet, Serial, Parallel, IDE, PS/2, and multi-function.
The CPU board contains a Pentium III processor with 128 Mb of memory running at 850 MHz. The
SBC plugs into the PCI and ISA busses on the backplane. The SBC supports several data and
input/output interfaces. It supports an ethernet controller that is used for communications with other
portions of the system. The PS/2 port is utilized for the keyboard. The serial ports are used for a
serial mouse and the Infrared Remote interface. The SBC interfaces to an IDE hard drive and CD-
ROM. The multi-function connector connects to the passive backplane and transmits the CPU
Reset and Hard Drive Activity signals. See Figure 2-3.

2.4.1.11 Static Reference Board


The Static Reference Board is a PCI circuit board and provides a standard VGA output video signal
that is used for the reference image display.
The Static Reference Board is used to display a Static Image on a monitor if the user has purchased
the advanced package. It is one of the few boards in the Saturn Digital System, which connects to
the PCI Bus only and outputs SVGA video through a VGA connector. Only 3 connections are used;
Horizontal and Vertical sync, and video (green). A separate VGA to BNC converter is then used to
provide composite video to the in-room monitor. See Figure 2-3.

2.4.1.12 Scan Converter Board (SCB)


The Scan Converter Board outputs 525 line (NTSC) or 625 line (PAL) video to a VCR and/or low
resolution monitor.
The circuit configuration is identical to the Image Display board - the PCI Prom is the only physical
difference between the 2 assemblies. Software loads the appropriate FPGA software to the board
based on the board ID detected in the PCI PROM. The Max. Opacification Board (MOB) is mounted
on the SCB.

Chapter 2 - Theory of System Operation Page 39


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
The quantity of Graphical Text overlay is less on a displayed Scan Converter image than it is with
a conventional Display board image. See Figure 2-3.

2.4.1.13 Digital Host Control Board (DHC)


The Host Control Board is the Link in the digital system that outputs digital data to the Hardcopy
Laser. Utilizing P831 protocol there are 2 connections that facilitate the Transfer of Images. An
RS232 communication link enables hand shaking between the 2 devices while an RS422 parallel
data link provides a path to transfer the image data to the Laser printer. See Figure 2-3.

2.4.1.14 Passive Backplane


The Passive Backplane contains three buses: PCI, ISA, and Image Bus. The backplane houses 13
board slots: 3 ISA, 1 PCI/ISA, 3 PCI, 6 PCI/Image Bus. The backplane has two PCI bridges and two
power connections. See Figure 2-3.

2.4.1.15 Image Acquisition Board (IAB)


The acquisition board accepts digitized 10 bit data from the CCU and outputs data on the Image
Bus. It contains frame averaging circuits providing for both conventional and Motion Corrected
noise reduction. Recursive and non-recursive frame averaging algorithms are used. It connects to
both the PCI and the Image Bus. See Figure 2-3.

2.4.1.16 Image Review


Images are read from the hard disk by the CPU and sent out over the PCI bus and written into the
Image Memory board. The memory board then sends them out over the Image Bus where they are
picked up by the display board and sent on to the monitor. See Figure 2-3.

2.4.1.17 Image Acquisition, Storage, and Display


See Figure 2-3 for the following discussion.

2.4.1.18 Real Time Fluoro Display


Real time Fluoro data flows from the Camera head to the Image Correction Board, on to the Camera
Control Unit or CCU and then the Acquisition board. It travels from the Acquisition board to the
Image Bus flowing to the display board and finally to the monitor. If the VCR option is present, data
also flows from the Image Bus through the scan converter board and on to the VCR.

2.4.1.19 Digital Record/Pulsed Fluoro Acquisition and Storage


A Record or Fluoro Store Image flows from the Camera through the ICB, CCU and Image
Acquisition boards. Passing onto the Image Bus it is copied into the Memory and Display boards.
The Display board sends the image on to the monitor. The image data in the Memory board is
copied out by the CPU over the PCI Bus, and stored on the hard disk. If the VCR option is present,
data also flows to the scan converter board and VCR.

2.4.1.20 Fluoro Loop Store


Fluoro loop image data is captured in the memory board at the same time it is being displayed on
the monitor. The data stays in the memory board enabling immediate playback after acquisition.
The user must use the “store loop” button to send the images to the hard disk.

2.4.1.21 Static Reference Display


Static reference display data is taken from the display board and stored in RAM on the CPU. When
a static display is requested, data is sent on the PCI Bus to the Static Reference Display Board and
then out to the monitor.

Page 40 Section 2.0 - Systems Cabinet


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
2.4.1.22 External Device Transfer
To transfer data to an external device, images are pulled from the hard disk through the CPU and
sent to the appropriate board. Image data will be sent to the Host Control board for output to a local
Laser for hardcopy, or to the Ethernet board for output to a customer network.

2.9.1 “Main” supply from Hospital
The hospital’s “mains” provide the 3-phase power and grounds needed by the system to operate.
A circuit breaker, customer supplied, should be placed before the power supplied to the system
cabinet. A room emergency button is used to activate the circuit breaker, using a trip mechanism.
The pre-install manual shows how such a configuration might be wired.

2.9.2 The Mains Switch


Mains power from enters the system through a switch at the bottom of the cabinet. If this switch is
turned off, the power to the system is removed. Note that there may be power coming out of the
UPS even when this is off if the system was “ON”

2.9.3 Power Peak-Up


Three phases of power go from this point to the Jedi Generator. Two phases of power and ground
go to the Power Distribution Unit (PDU).

2.9.4 PDU
The PDU provides power to the system except for the three phase power to the Generator. The
system is designed to operate either at 60Hz or 50Hz. At the power input to the PDU there are tap
settings to select the voltage that is being supplied to the PDU (380V to 480V in increments of 10V).
This is a tap setting into the isolation transformer in the PDU so that the output voltage is always
same irrespective of the input voltage. There are two voltage outputs 120V/ 220V from the PDU.
Most of the system uses 120V. The Gantry tilt drive uses 220V. There is no voltage regulation in
the PDU. Each of the subsystems which use power manages the variation in the input voltage.
The output from the transformer goes through an EMC filter to minimize the electrical noise entering
the system or going back into the main power supply.
The output from the EMC filter goes through various relays to turn On and Off the various parts of
the system depending on what the state of the system is. These relays are driven by the PDU IO
logic board located on the top left side of the system cabinet.
The PDU also has service power outlets.

2.9.5 PDU IO Logic Board


The PDU IO logic board turns on and off the various relays in the PDU based on the commands it
receives from the system controller computer called. In addition it provides the interface for the
room Emergency off and the door interlock.
This board is powered ON almost all the time. This board is powered when the system is in the
“ON”, “OFF” or in the “Standby” state. When there is a power failure, till the computers are shutdown
and the UPS is shutdown this board is powered. Then the power is removed. When the room
emergency button is pressed, the power to this board is removed. There is a relay in the PDU which
connects the power supply located next to the PDU IO board to the main input power when the UPS
is off and connects to the UPS output when the UPS is On. This power supply provides power to
the PDU IO board.
This board gets commands from the system controller computer called Mars, which is located next
to the PDU IO board. The commands comes to the board through the CAN bus.

2.9.6 Operational Power States


The In this section, the different states of operation for the system will be described:
• Power On, Section 2.9.6.1
• Standby, Section 2.9.6.2
• Shutdown, Section 2.9.6.3
• Emergency Off, Section 2.9.6.4

Chapter 2 - Theory of System Operation Page 51


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
• Tableside Emergency Off, Section 2.9.6.5
• Power Loss, Section 2.9.6.6
• Reset, Section 2.9.6.7
• UPS / Interlocks, Section 2.9.6.8

2.9.6.1 Power-On
There are three normal states to PDU operation: on, shutdown and standby. Pressing the ON
button (from the IUI console), sends a signal to the Logic/Relay Driver. Power (+24v) which is fed
to the user interface computer (Venus) through the RT bus. When the ON button is pressed on the
user interface computer Venus, it closes a contact and sends the 24V back to the PDU IO board,
which energizes relays K1 and K2. If the UPS is off, a “Turn On” signal is sent to the UPS. The UPS
turns on approximately two seconds later and supplies power to the computers.
The firmware in the FPGA on I.O board coordinates the activities. This device turns On power to all
the components in the system at the same time and thus allows the system comes up.
See Figure 2-19.

Figure 2-19 PDU Power-On

2.9.6.2 Standby
This is a state where computers, communication devices (like the Hub and the Modem), system
cabinet FAN and the tube fan power to the Jedi have steady power applied. The purpose of this
state is to provide remote access into the system during the night time. There is a Standby button
on the Venus console. When this button is pressed a software command is generated in the Venus
console. This command is passed to the rest of the computers. The Mars then sends a command
to the PDU IO board through the CAN bus to turn off power to the various parts of the system. The
PDU IO board in turn turns off the various relays. Pressing the Standby button de-energizes the K2
relay, removing power from the positioner, wallstand, OTS, monitors, and generator auxiliary 1.
See the block diagram to see what parts are On and Off. See Figure 2-20.

Page 52 Section 2.0 - Systems Cabinet


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL

Figure 2-20 PDU Standby

2.9.6.3 Shutdown
There is no power off hard button on this system. The system is turned off by selecting the
SHUTDOWN button in the UTILITIES menu on the User interface screen. Pressing the Shutdown
key (a soft key on the IUI) starts an orderly shutdown of the IUI, digital system and system controller.
When the shutdown is pressed on the Venus console, a message is send to all the computers. The
Mars computer first sends a command to turn on a backup watch dog timer in the PDU IO board.
During the shutdown process if the computers get hung up, this timer will expire and force a hard
shutdown of the system.
Normally the Mars then sends a command to turn off power to most of the system except for the
UPS which keeps the computers powered. The relays K1 and K2 are de-energized as a result of
the shutdown command. Thus removing power from the rest of the system.
The computers go through a shutdown process and at the end Venus sends an Off command to
the UPS through a serial connection between the Venus and the UPS. When the UPS is turned off
the watchdog timer running in the PDU IO board is cleared. See Figure 2-21.

2.9.6.4 Emergency Off


The room emergency button is a two pole two throw switch. One set of contacts is connected to the
room power supply main circuit breaker. So when this button is pressed the main circuit breaker will
trip and remove power from all components except for the ones powered by the UPS. The second
normally closed contact in the emergency switch is connected to the PDU IO board. This board
provides a 24 V to this switch and the return from the switch is monitored by this board. When the
switch opens this line, it is detected by the PDU IO board and it sends a hard-wired command to
the UPS to shut-off the UPS immediately. If there is a break in the wire in this circuit, the system
thinks that somebody pressed this button and the system will shutdown. See Figure 2-22.

2.9.6.5 Tableside Emergency Off


This button is hard wired into the PDU IO board through wires in the RT bus. When this is pressed
the power to the Gantry, OTS and the wall stand is removed immediately by turning off the relays
in the PDU which provide power to these devices. The PU IO board informs the Mars computer
regarding this action through the CAN bus. When the button is released, the power is restored to
these devices by turning on the relays in the PDU. See Figure 2-23.

2.9.6.6 Power Loss


There is a UPS in the system to provide power to the computers (IUI, Digital System and System
Controller) when there is a short duration(30 seconds approximately) main power loss from the
hospital power supply. This also provides power to the devices to keep the communication between
the computers, keyboard and the modem. See Figure 2-24.

2.9.6.7 Reset
When the Reset button on the IUI is pressed, the following three steps occur simultaneously:
1.) A reset signal is sent to the three computers. If the computers are operating normally, they will
undergo an orderly shutdown and reboot. If the computers are hung, a hard reset will occur
after two seconds.
2.) The generator CPU board is reset.
3.) The positioner, wallstand and OTS power is cycled. The K3 relays stays on for ten seconds,
turns off for ten seconds and finally turns on again.

2.9.6.8 UPS / Remaining power interlock.


There is a hard-wired interlock in the PDU between the UPS output and the rest of the system power
output. Through this interlock, when the UPS output power is turned off the rest of the system power
output power is removed. This is to assure that the system is turned off even if there is a failure in
the communication between the Mars and the PDU IO board.

3.2 Technology Overview

3.2.1 kV Control

3.2.1.1 Introduction
The kV control function controls the generator. Its main functions include:
• a CPU, which runs the generator software:
- console and/or system communications
- exposure sequencing (rotation, heater, exposure control)
- mA regulation
- tube and generator thermal protection
- generator configuration management
- tube, AEC calibrations
- generator diagnostics (application background diagnostics and service diagnostics)
• a standard interface to system interface
• a Control bus interface
• exposure control
• HV power inverter control
• IGBT gate drive supply control
• HV chain measures and safeties (kV, mA, mAs, inverter currents, inverter gate supply, DC
bus)

3.2.1.2 CPU core

First generation
The CPU is a 68360. It’s micro-controller based CPU runs at 25MHz. Program memory consist of
1MBytes of flash memory, which allows the software to be downloaded through the system. Data
memory contains a 512Kbytes RAM and 8Kbytes of battery backed-up RAM used to store the
configuration/calibration/errorlog data. This memory also includes a clock used
mainly for thermal algorithm calculations.

Second generation:
CPU is a Power PC micro-controller based CPU running at 50MHz. Program memory is a 2Mbytes
flash memory which allows the software to be downloaded through the system or laptop
communication path. Data memory contains a 256Kbytes RAM and 32Kbytes battery backed-up
RAM used to store the configuration/calibration/errorlog data. This memory also
includes a clock used mainly for thermal algorithm calculation.

The generator software is based on the VxWorks operating system and divided into several tasks
and layers:
• communication tasks controls the various communication paths provided by the CPU
• application task handles the exposure state machine
• thermal management task
• device controller tasks which identifies and then drives the kV control, mA control, heater and
rotation functions

Chapter 2 - Theory of System Operation Page 61


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
Calibration and diagnostic functions are also part of the generator software

3.2.1.3 Standard interface to system interface


kV control provides a standard interface on which various system interfaces can be plugged
depending on the system configuration. This “standard” interface provides:
• a CAN communication line
• 5 UART lines
• 5 configure able IO lines
• 4 system interface identifier lines

3.2.1.4 Control bus


kV control is connected to the generator through the internal communication bus:
• CAN communication line used to drive heater and rotation functions
• reset line (from kV control to other functions)
• mains_drop (from LVPS board to signal without delay a drop on the main supply)
• ctrl_to_grid (from kV control to grid for pulsed modes in vascular)
• speed_cons_to_rotor (spare)
• +15V (used to create locally 5V supply)
• -15V

CAN is a network car industry standard. Its main purpose is to bring short command messages in
hostile environments over few meters up to hundreds of meters with a guaranteed latency and
without any information loss.
Defined for small systems, it does not require large amounts of software to encode and decode the
messages.
The network hardware is based on a differential line (2 wires) driven at each node by a CAN driver
(ISO/DIS 11898 standard). The length of the network define the maximum network speed: 1Mbit/s
max up to 30m length, 500Kb/s up to 100m.

The messages have a fixed length. Their structure is the following:


• an identifier field which defines at the same time the command number and the priority of the
command (smaller the command number is, higher is the priority)
• 8 bytes of data max
• checksum of the message

The CAN protocol ensures that:


• the highest priority message is send the first
• if a message is corrupted, it is resent automatically
• if more than 8 bytes of data must be transmitted, data is divided in packets of 8 bytes and
several messages are generated consecutively

3.2.1.5 Exposure control

CPU Core (Exposure control master)


• Once the system connected to the generator is known, the CPU downloads the exposure
control configuration stored in a FPGA (DSP also in the case of PPC control board).
• Then, the CPU manages the slow functions while the FPGA manages the hard real-time
functions:
Page 62 Section 3.0 - Generator “Jedi”
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL

FPGA
• handles the system/generator IO lines (including exposure command lines, brightness...)
• triggers/cuts the exposure
• handles the HV power inverter safeties signals (by the DSP in case of PPC kv control board)
• handles X-ray On signal
• counts the mAs (n/a for CT applications)
• generates the 1KHz microprocessor main interrupt

CPU
• update the exposure state machine based on the signals send by the FPGA
• generates the exposure enable to the FPGA once everything is ready for the exposure
• calculates and applies kV, mA, exposure time, mAs
• counts the exposure time
• regulates mA each 1ms
• counts the brightness for AEC (n/a for CT applications)
• regulates brightness for ABC in fluoroscopy (n/a for CT applications)
• handles heater and rotation errors
• manages the event and error log

3.2.1.6 HV power inverter control


This function is controlled by the FPGA (or DSP + FPGA in the last KV control generation). It
handles the HV power inverter state machine. This state machine goes into its active states when
exposure control function triggers the exposure. Then the state machine successively drives each
IGBT gate. The delay applied between two consecutive IGBT “on” commands is calculated inside
the FPGA (or the DSP in the case of the PPC board).

This is the minimum time of the following two:


• the parallel resonance time which represents the max delay not to go over (the inverter must
not be driven below the parallel resonance frequency)
• the time calculated by the kV regulation

This second time is the result of the kV regulation loop whose role is to make the measured kV equal
to the kV demand:
• kV measure is subtracted to kV demand to create error_kV (analog or 360 kV control board
and digital for the PPC board)
• error_kV is divided in two parallel chains made of a kV error peak detection followed by a
analog to digital conversion (analog)
• the digital error then feeds a digital PI (proportional Integral) regulator which calculates the
delay to apply before triggering the next IGBT (FPGA) for the 360 kV control (computed by the
DSP in case of PPC board)
Each IGBT “off” command is triggered by the 0 Amps crossing of the serial resonant current.

In case of tube spit, the state machine goes to the “off” state, stays 100us inside it and automatically
restart if the maximum number of tube spits is not reached. This time can be longer in the case of
RAD or RF products (4 ms, for example). At the same time, the main software counts the number
of spits and informs the system with a process depending upon the application.
IGBT commands from the FPGA then goes through drivers to the inverter. The drivers can be
disabled by a mains drop or an incorrect gate supply. The IGBT gate drive supply is controlled
synchronously with the inverter state machine:
• gate supply voltage is read and compared to a reference
• each two IGBT command, the gate supply IGBT is commanded with a duration proportional to
the gate voltage error
• between two exposures, the inverter being not running, the gate supply is regulated by at a
fixed (8KHz) frequency. Constant gate supply voltage is ensured by regulating the gate supply
command pulse width.

3.2.1.7 HV chain measure and safeties


HV chain is protected by fast and slow safeties. Fast safeties are implemented in analog form and

• HV tank temperature
• gate supply voltage
• DC Bus voltage
These measurements provide a second way to detect a fault condition in the HV chain and put the
generator in a safe state.

3.2.2 HV power Inverter and HV Tank function

3.2.2.1 Introduction
For this section see Figure 2-33 and Figure 2-34.
The HV function involves the following sub-assemblies
• HV power Inverter
• HV power Inverter LC
• HV Tank
• Tube

The main features of the function are:


• HV power inverter principle is common for all applications. Several tierings have been defined
to cover the 12KW-100KW applications range:
- Battery powered HV power Inverter: 12KW-25KW inverter when supplied by 100VDC-
200VDC battery
- RAD/RF 32KW, 40 kW, 400mA, 640mAs inverter
- CT 36KW, 300mA max, 18720mAs max, 3KW average inverter
- RAD 50KW, 640mA, 640mAs inverter
- VASC/RF 100KW inverter
• HV Tank principle is common for all applications: 40kV-150kV, 0mA-1000mA max. Two HV
Tank types have been defined to cover battery powered generators on one side and the 1
phase or 3 phase products on the other side.
• In the case where 2 tubes are connected to the generator, a 2 tubes HV tank with commutation
capability replaces the standard HV tank to connect the HV output to the right tube.

3.2.2.2 HV power Inverter principle


See Figure 2-33 for the following discussion.
The HV power Inverter is a hypo-resonant type half-bridge inverter. Power switches used are
IGBTs. Depending on the power requirements, either 1 IGBT per polarity is installed (2 IGBTs total)
or 2 IGBTs in parallel per polarity for high power applications (4 IGBTs total). The resonant circuit
presents two resonant frequencies:
• A serial resonance frequency made by the resonant capacitor and the sum of all the circuit
serial inductors (including the HV transformer leakage inductance). Its frequency is fixed at
50KHz to 70KHz depending on the inverter tiering.
• A parallel resonance frequency made by the resonant capacitor and the parallel inductance.
Its frequency is fixed at 20KHz for all tierings

The inverter drive frequency is ranging between the parallel frequency and the serial frequency. The
inverter is producing the maximum current when it is commanded near (under) the serial frequency
(ex: CT inverter produces 300mA at <=50KHz) and produces the minimum current when it is
commanded near (above) the parallel frequency (ex: 0mA at >=20KHz). Serial and parallel current
are measured by current transformers and used by the inverter control for the HV power inverter
command (see kV control section).

Chapter 2 - Theory of System Operation Page 65


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
The HV power inverter is composed of two FRUs:
• the inverter comprising:
• heat-sink
• IGBTs and aid circuit
• gate command board
• parallel inductor

The inverter LC composed of:


• aid and serial inductor
• filtering capacitors
• resonant capacitor
• serial and parallel current measure transformers

Each element can vary from one application to another. Some general rules can be drawn:
• 100KW requires 4 IGBTs
• 50KW and less require 2 IGBTs
• value of resonant elements vary from one application to another because they are linked to the
peak power and the average power
• gate command board is unique

With IGBTs being connected to the DC Bus, both their gate drivers and the gate drivers must be
isolated from ground. The IGBTs are controlled by the kV control board. The command is isolated
by small pulse transformers. They command a semi-power stage which drive the IGBTs gates. The
gate commands have the capability to drive up to two 400A IGBTs in parallel which is the case for
vascular power.
IGBT gate drivers supply is made by a small fly-back power supply fed by the DC Bus and regulated
by the kV control board (see kV control section). The fly-back IGBT command is made through a
pulse transformer. This supply produces +20V and -10V for IGBTs gates drives.
All inverter commands and measures (including inverter identificator) are going from and to the kV
control board through a bridge made by the HV tank kV measure board.

3.2.2.3 HV Tank principle


HV Tank is sealed by the kV measure board placed on top of it. This board must not be removed.
The HV Tank can be used in any position. A temperature measure is placed in the oil under the
cover and is used to track HV Tank temperature and to prevent overheating (max temperature
allowed is 67 degrees C).
The HV transformer presents two primary coils connected in serial and to the inverter LC. Four
secondary coils are connected in serial along with their rectifier/filter stage. The transformer ratio is
417 for 1 and 3 phase input line applications (which lead to a 400VDC-800VDC DC Bus) and is four
time higher for battery powered applications (which lead to a 100VDC-200VDC DC Bus).
Total HV filtering capacitor is 1nF inside the HV tank.
The inverter topology along with this HV filtering capacitor produces a HV ripple in the 40KHz-
140KHz range, not measurable at low mA up to a few percent at max mA.
Both cathode and anode kV are measured and reported to the kV control board for kV regulation,
kV safeties and tube spits detection. mA measure is made in the cathode side of the transformer
and transmitted to the kV control board for mA regulation and safety.

3.2.3 System interface


System interface is the FRU which adapts the generator to the system. It is declined in different
versions depending on the system.

3.2.3.1 CT interface
Refer to Figure 2-46 in the following discussion. Interface between the generator and the OGP
consists of:
• an isolated CAN communication line to the OGP
• 3 isolated RS485 lines:
• exposure command
• X-ray on
• reset
• A RS232 line for the laptop connection

3.2.3.2 RAD interface


Refer to Figure 2-47 in the following discussion. RAD interface consists in:
• Two plugs with parallels signals for Buckys. (One for table, the second for Wall stand).
• One plug for connection with X-ray light and interlock door.
• One RS422 communication line to the console
• One RS232 line for the laptop connection
• One RS232 line for the tests
• One plug for AEC board option

INTERFACE Bucky, Function principle


The external CAN coming from kV Control board is converting in parallel signals to monitor bucky
and to receive hardware signals (hand-switch and exposure command, interlock door).
When prep and exposure signals are received by kV control board and after checking safeties the
exposure demand signal is sent to wall or table bucky (depending of technique selection).Then,
when the bucky is ready, it sends to kV control board Exposure command signal.(one hardware line
and one to CAN line). At this time the X-Ray exposure starts.
Buckies are plug on J5 for table Bucky and J6 for Wall Bucky.
Workstation signals are used to manage either Table or Wall bucky or Direct mode (exposures on
Table top)

INTERFACE w/room door signals


On plug J7 an interlock door signal is provided to inhibit exposure when room door is opened (If no
interlock door a jump as to be made in J7 pin 1 and 2). A prep switch is also provided by the
generator on plug J7 to monitor an X-Ray light (generally located above the room door).

Console and service terminal communication


Two serial links are provided on interface board to dialog with Control Console, service terminal.
The third one is for GEMS use only. One serial link RS422 type for Console in plug J9,the other
serial links are RS232 type.

- exposure command
- exposure enable
- X-ray on

• One plug for AEC board option

3.2.3.4 AEC

AEC FUNCTION
Refer to Figure 2-35 in the following discussion. AEC board is able to drive up to four GEMSE
ionization chambers.
• Two ionization chambers are used generally: One for table, the second for Wall stand.
• One analog ion chamber is used in “Uroview” generator, for the table.
• One analog ion chamber is used on Precision generator, for the Wall stand (note: a digital AEC
is used for the table digitally managed between system and Jedi)
• The ionization chambers are connected in front of the Interface Module.
• On each plugs (two) the following signals are available:
- Ionization chamber selection (1 to 4)
- Cells selection (Left, Middle or Right)
- Return voltage from ionization chamber (VAEC1 to VAEC4)
- High power supply (230Vdc) for ion chamber polarization (if necessary)
- Low voltage power supply (+/- 15Vdc)

AEC Function Principle:


During an exposure the output of an ionization chamber (VAEC1 to VAEC4) is monitored to
determine when the required density on film has been reached. This result is obtained by sending
pulses to kV control board (through Interface board). to increase the value in a software counter.
These pulses are also sent to a hardware counter followed by a DAC. The DAC output voltage is
then compared to the feedback voltage of the ionization chamber selected (AEC1 or AEC2). When
the return voltage of the ionization chamber is greater than the output voltage of the DAC, a new
pulse is generated. The exposure is cut when the software counter on kV control has reached a
calibrated value.
The value of the software counter is calibrated in service mode and it is depending of kV and
exposure time. These parameters are called: kVef and kT in calibration mode. The value VREF is
corresponding to the software counter value: VREF= kVef x kT

3.2.4 Heater function

3.2.4.1 Introduction
Refer to Figure 2-36 in the following discussion. The heater function involves the following sub-
assemblies:
• Heater board
• HV tank heater transformers
• Tube filaments

Page 68 Section 3.0 - Generator “Jedi”


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
The main features of the function are:
• One type of heater board is available:
- a 1 inverter heater board for applications which do not a fast exposure switch from one
filament to the other. In this case, 1 inverter powers alternatively the two filaments.
- For applications which need fast exposure switch from one filament to another (This
requires to pre-light one filament when the other is used), 2 heaters board are used in
parallel.
• Each heater board is able to drive all kind of filaments up to either 5,5A or 6,5A depending of
the filament type, and 10A in boost mode.
• Heater function includes filament protection against overheating and filament open detection

3.2.4.2 1 Inverter Heater


Refer to Figure 2-36 in the following discussion.
The heater inverter is an hyper-resonant half bridge inverter fed by a 160VDC voltage provided by
the Low voltage power supply function or the battery voltage (100VDC-200VDC) in case of a battery
powered generator.
The resonant frequency is fixed at 20KHz, and the working frequency range is between 20KHz
(maximum power) and 60KHz (minimum power around 1,5A in the filament).
Current waveform in the inverter is approximately a sine wave. The inverter working frequency
range makes it completely inaudible.
The filaments being at the cathode voltage, an isolation transformer for each filament is located in
the HV Tank. These transformers present a 1:1.25 ratio leading to a RMS current in the heater
inverter 1.25 times the filament current.
The inverter is switched to one of the two filaments by the focus selection relay.
The input voltage being referenced to ground, no isolation is required to drive the MOS switches
The heater drive mainly relies on a 16 bits, 20MHz, 32Kbyte memory micro-controller.

It is in charge of the main functions:


• Get at power-up the heater database containing all the data required to drive the filaments
(through the CAN serial line of the Control Bus):
- filament max currents
- boost duration
- inverter current safety levels
• Receive the commands (ex: go to filament=5A on small focus), and update the heater state
accordingly
• Measure the inverter current and regulate the inverter
• Simulate the filament temperature and protect it against overheating
• Give the feedbacks (ex: filament=5A, errors) to the main software, and put the heater in a safe
state in case of error
• Read the +15V, -15V (Control bus voltages), heater supply bus and inform the main software

The micro-controller commands the power bridge drive through an EPLD in charge of:
• de-multiplexing the drive frequency to command the 2 MOS
• stop the inverter in case a safeties which require a fast action: over-current, over-voltage
(=filament open detection), inverter short circuit, mains drop, tube temperature reaches 70
degrees
• drive the focus selection relay and read its position

Chapter 2 - Theory of System Operation Page 69


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
The filament current accuracy and reproducibility must be excellent (less than several 1/1000) to
ensure a good mA accuracy and reproducibility. Filament current being not measurable (because
at high voltage), the heater inverter current (and not the filament current) is regulated.
The heater inverter current is measured and converted to RMS. The RMS current is measured by
the micro-controller compared to the reference and the error leads to an adjustment of the inverter
drive frequency.
At the same time, the micro-controller tracks the filament temperature based on the filament current
applied and prevents overheating.

3.2.5 Rotation function

3.2.5.1 Introduction
Refer to Figure 2-38 in the following discussion. The rotation function involves the following sub-
assemblies:
• Rotation board
• Rotation capacitors module
• Tube stator

The main features of the function are:


• One type of rotation board is available: high speed (max speed=180Hz=10800rpm) rotation
board (with the capacity to drive the rotor in Low Speed)
• Each rotation board is capable to drive GE tubes (23Ohms/23Ohms stator), CGR tubes (50/
110) and all vendors tubes. Tube adaptation is made by selecting the right capacitors module
to adapt to the stator.
• High speed rotation is capable to drive both tri-phased stator and bi-phased stators.
• In the case where several tubes are connected to the generator, the Tube Management
module (optional module only present when several tubes are connected) manages the tube
selection. This module has the capability to mix up to 3 different tubes with different stators
• The rotation function also manages the tube thermal safeties and the tube cooling commands

3.2.5.2 High speed rotation


Refer to Figure 2-38 in the following discussion.

Rotation Principle
Since the rotation function must be able to drive either tri-phased stator or bi-phased stators, the
inverter is a three-leg inverter with six IGBTs. This module is packaged in one pack.
The inverter is feed by the DC bus generated by the AC/DC board through a small EMC filter
(voltage 400VDC-800VDC for one or three phase input line generators, or battery voltage
(100VDC-200VDC) for battery powered generators).
The inverter drive uses a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) of the IGBTs commands.
This principle consists in applying a periodic command on the IGBTs equal to the speed selected
in order to generate a sine wave current in each phase at the anode speed frequency with the
optimum angle between the phases.
Inside this “fundamental” command frequency, the IGBTs commands duration is modulated in order
to get the right level of current in the phases.

Figure 2-26 Example of bi-phased SLEM motors high speed drive timing

Depending on the stator windings number (2 or 3), of their impedance and of the speed selected,
the main and auxiliary phases are either connected directly to the phases (example: in high speed
mode on a tri-phased low impedance stator, in low speed mode for a bi-phased stator, in high speed
brake) or through a module of shift capacitors whose role is to put the right angle between the
phases to ensure maximum efficiency in acceleration and run.
This capacitor module is defined for each stator and so different from one stator to another.
Rotation is including a relay which allow to put the capacitors in the circuit and to short-circuit it
depending of the state of the rotation drive.
As the IGBTs are connected to the DC voltage, IGBTs gates drives require isolation. This is
accomplished through opto couplers. Gates drives power supplies are generated by a small fly-
back power supply which uses the +15V of the Control Bus to generate 4 isolated +15V to power
each IGBT gate (and the 5V for all logic function).
The rotation drive mainly relies on a 16 bits, 20MHz, 32Kbyte memory micro-controller.

It is in charge of the main functions:


• Get at power-up the rotation database containing all the data required to drive the stator
(through the CAN serial line of the Control Bus):
- currents reference for each state
- acceleration and brake durations
- inverter current safety levels
• Receive the commands (go to speed=10000rpm), and update the rotation state accordingly
• Measure the inverter currents and regulate the inverter (fundamental and modulation)
• Give the feedbacks (speed=10000rpm, errors) to the main software, and put the rotation in a
safe state in case of error
• Read the tube safeties and drive the tube cooling
- The micro-controller commands the power bridge drive through an EPLD in charge of:

Chapter 2 - Theory of System Operation Page 71


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
- mixing fundamental and modulation commands
- de-multiplexing the PWM command to command the 6 IGBTs
- stop the inverter in case a safeties which require a fast action: inverter overload, mains
drop, tube temperature reaches 70 degrees
- drive the high speed relay

Fundamental frequency is applied so that the sine wave in the phases is at the frequency
corresponding to the desired anode speed. It is calculated by the micro-controller.
The modulation of the IGBT commands is the result of a regulation loop which ensure to reach the
right current level for the tube and the rotation state (example: high speed acceleration current = 7A
for Qj tube, high speed run current = 2A for Qj tube).
This loop ensure optimum acceleration performances in all conditions of DC bus and of stator
temperature.
The current is measured inside 2 phases, reconstructed for the third phase.
Then the measure is compared to the reference value and the error leads to an adjustment of the
modulation rate.
All rotation states are regulated except the brake. Brake includes a state where a DC current is
generated in open loop mode, the commands frequency depending only of the tube and the line
voltage.

The rotation function has capabilities which are not yet developed like:
• variable speed profiles for tri-phase motor drive
• anode speed control

Tube Cooling
The high speed rotation board handles the following functions:
• supply and reading of two tube thermo-switches (typically 40 degrees and 70 degrees). The
information is send to the main software which takes appropriate actions based on the tube
and system
• when supplied by a 1 phase 115VAC or 230VAC, capability to power permanently a tube lamp
• when supplied by a 1 phase 115VAC or 230VAC, capability to power a fan and/or pump and/
or to trigger a chiller whenever decided by the main software based on tube and system
• read-back of the cooling supply voltage to prevent tube damage in case of a no cooling
condition
Note that the tube cooling supply (115VAC or 230VAC) must be isolated from ground and protected
by a fuse at the source wherever this voltage is created.

3.2.6 Switching Tube Function


Refer to Figure 2-45 in the following discussion. This function is realized with the following sub
assemblies:
• Two Switching Tubes board
• Two tubes HV tank with motorized internal switch

The Two Switching Tubes board ensures


• the switch of the rotation stator currents (delivered by the rotation board) between tube 1 and
tube 2 with management of the shift capacitors. It may have 4 shift capacitors – 2 per tube -
used for high speed with the selected tube or shorted for low speed)
• the switch of the filament currents from the heaters board to the Two tubes HV tank
• the management of the cooling supply between tube 1 and tube 2
Page 72 Section 3.0 - Generator “Jedi”
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS

• the management of the thermal security signals between tube 1 and tube 2
• the control of the motor for the High voltage switch and the management of the HV tank
position switches
• the dialog through CAN bus with the main generator software.
The two tubes HV tank contains
• the same high voltage stage than the standard single tube HV tank
• an internal mechanical switch allowing a selection between two High Voltage outputs (4 HV
receptacles)
• a motor driving the mechanical switch controlled by the Two Switching Tubes Board.

3.2.7 EMC filter function

3.2.7.1 Introduction
EMC filter is designed to make the generator compliant with the EMC conducted noise and
immunity regulatory by filtering the HV power inverter noise (rotation noise is mainly filtered on
rotation board).
It is placed at the power input of the generator and mainly composed of one to several (L,C) filters
cells placed in cascade to filter common mode noise (filters referenced to ground) and differential
mode noise (filters between phases).
EMC filter is declined in:
• single phase version
• three phase version

3.2.7.2 3 phase EMC filter


Refer to Figure 2-39 in the following discussion.

3.2.8 AC/DC

3.2.8.1 Introduction
AC/DC function consists in creating the DC Bus. Standard DC Bus range is 400VDC-800VDC.
This voltage is feeding all the main generator functions (inverter, gate drive supply, low voltage
power supply, rotation).
DC Bus to the auxiliary functions (gate drive supply, low voltage power supply, rotation) is protected
by a fuse rated to protect them against short circuits.
Note that the mains phases feeding the generator must be protected wherever they are created with
a rating matching generator power requirements.
AC/DC function is declined in:
• single phase version
• three phase max power version

3.2.8.2 Single phase AC/DC


This function is designed to create a DC Bus in the 400VDC-800VDC range when supplied by a
230VAC (200 to 240V) input.
The design uses a voltage doubler principle to generate the right DC Bus voltage.
If the mains is lower than 230VAC, an auto-transformer may be required to generate a 240VAC
input to the generator.
The function includes a set of storage capacitors whose role is to limit the DC voltage drop during
the exposure.

Chapter 2 - Theory of System Operation Page 73


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
The capacitors number required to run up to 32KW exposure being high, the generator power-up
requires a pre-load at low charging current. Once the capacitors are charged, the pre load resistor
is shunted for normal operation through a contactor.
The capacitors also require a discharge circuit to comply with a fast access to the generator once
it is powered off.
In order to protect the discharge circuit against overheating, three successive ON/OFF sequences
are allowed. After the third, the software inhibits any ON command within 15mn.

3.2.8.3 3 phases max power AC/DC


Refer to Figure 2-40 in the following discussion.The function mainly includes differential modes
filters. The main storage capacitors are designed to limit the DC Bus drop during the kV rise.

3.2.9 Low voltage power supply (standard LVPS)


This fly-back type power supply generates the +15V/-15V supplies for the generator. At the same
time it creates the heater supply voltage.
This power supplies is powered by the main DC bus. It means that all the generator is off when the
3 phases are off.
Low voltage power supply is declined in 2 versions:
• - for 3 phases application
• - for 1 phase applications:

3.2.10 Low Voltage power supply 400W (LVPS400)


Refer to Figure 2-44 in the following discussion.
• The LVPS400 board is designed to supply the various circuits of the JEDI generator with the
required low voltages. The board communicates with JEDI generator by the mean of a CAN
bus and one real time line (MAINS_DROP). It is intended to be connected to a fuse protected
230V RMS Mains. (115V RMS with a specific strap). It has 11 specific outputs:
• P15VCAN and M15VCAN to supply mainly the PPC board and the low voltage parts of
HEATER boards and ROTATION board.
• P15V EXT intended to supply mainly the low voltage circuits of the grid control tank - InGrid
tank- (If required)
• 24V GATE to supply the Gate control board of JEDI main inverter (HELIOS application) or a
ON/OFF contactor (in UROVIEW single phase system).
• Four specific outputs (24V FAN) intended to connect fans. Each output can drive two fans
connected in parallel, so depending on the considered system, up to eight fans can be used.
Each output voltage is programmable by firmware
• Two outputs 160 H1 and 160V H2 designed to supply two different HEATER boards for XL and
XS filament. (if required)
• 160V EXT to supply the INGRID tank power circuits (if required).
The board monitors the output voltage and current. Depending on the values, it may generate
warnings, which are sent to the kV control board, but the exposure is not interrupted.
Refer to the Low voltage power supply Bloc diagram in appendix:

3.2.10.1 Circuits description.


The LVPS400 board is constituted by
• A rectifier stage
• An auxiliary fly-back inverter which provides three specific voltages P15V, M15V and P7V
intended to supply the control and regulation circuits on the board
• A main regulated inverter with four separate outputs: P17V, M17V, P26V and P160V

Page 74 Section 3.0 - Generator “Jedi”


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
• Eleven separate regulators with individual ON/OFF function controlled by the LVPS micro
controller
• A control circuit

AC/DC Stage
This stage is composed by an EMI filter (L1, C19, C12), a rectifier bridge U10 and a tank capacitor
formed by C34,C43,C47,C36. The CTN U11 and U15 are used to limit the inrush current. For
115VRMS operation, pins 1 and 2 of J2 connector must be externally connected. A voltage doubler
stage is formed by two diodes of U10 and the capacitors C34 and C43 on one side, and the
capacitors C36 and C47 on the other side. The neon lamp DS8 lights as long as the capacitors C34,
C43, C47, C36 are not completely discharged.
The Mains AC input is monitored by the two signals LINE1 and LINE2. The needed isolation is
made by opto couplers U16. The DC signal, at the output of the rectification stage CR112 and
CR113, is applied to the comparator U14 which provides the signal _LINE ON to the micro controller
(needed data to generate MAINS_DROP to the JEDI generator and allow a preventive data back
up when the ac input voltage disappears)

Auxiliary fly-back inverter


It is a stand-by power supply which delivers the internal voltages needed on the LVPS400 board.
The inverter is supplied from the DC bus and protected by an internal fuse. The inverter is made
with an integrated fly-back driverU101, a switch Q16 and the transformer T1. The T1 secondary
voltages are rectified by the diodes CR24, CR128 and CR25.

Main inverter

POWER STAGE
The switches Q7 and Q12, the inductance L9 and the capacitors C52 and C53 are the main parts
of a resonant inverter working above the resonant frequency of about 20kHz. The transformer T2
provide the needed isolation and with its four secondary windings it can deliver after rectification,
the voltages P17V, M17V, P26V, P160V. The input lines of the gate switch drivers U19 are isolated
by opto couplers U20. The main inverter can be disabled by the LVPS micro controller with the
INV_ON signal (state 1 = inverter enable)

CONTROL AND FEEDBACK CIRCUIT


The switch control signals _CMD_INV_H and _CMD_INV_L are derived from a sawtooth generator
and the two comparators U17 and U18. The sawtooth generator is set up with the integrator U2
(1,2,3) and the comparator U2 (8,9,10) which drives a diodes switch CR102 to commute the voltage
of CR3 or CR4. The comparison level of U2 comparator is issued by the output 7 or 14 of U2
depending on the sawtooth polarity (diodes switch CR1). We obtain in this way a voltage /period
generator. This control voltage is derived from an inverter current measurement and a signal
_CONS_I_INV (output 14 of U5) calculated from error voltage.
The error signal is calculated from the reference voltage P10REF and the lowest voltage among
P160V, P26V and P17V (in respect to their nominal value) by the amplifiers U5 and U13 an the
diodes switches CR7 and CR8
When we start the inverter the signal _INV_ON has a transition from 1 to 0, Q3 is OFF and the
feedback reference voltage (On the Q3 drain) rise at a rate depending on R151, C10, C11 and
C118. followed by the inverter output voltages

Regulators

P15V, M15V, 15V EXT, 24V GATE REGULATORS


These four linear regulators are the same type. They show only a slight difference in components
choice to take into account the various output power. The P15V CAN regulator, for example
includes:
• A ballast transistor Q13
• A driver stage Q123, Q124
• An error amplifier U13 which compare the output voltage to the reference voltage M10REF
• An enable /disable circuit Q117, Q5 with a rising voltage ramp R28, C23
A LED DS7 shows when the P15V CAN supply is ON.An image of the output voltage is sent to the
micro controller to measurement MEAS_V_P15_CAN

160V H1, 160V H2, 160V EXT REGULATORS


These three linear regulators are the same type that the previous one but in this case the error
amplifier and driver stage are made with a two differential transistors stage Q132 and Q133 for
160V H1 output

24V FAN1, 24V FAN2, 24V FAN3, 24V FAAN4 REGULATORS


These four regulators consist in a pulse width modulation switching stage. So each output can be
adjusted to the right value by the firmware.(taking in count temperature measurements) The PWM
signal is delivered by the micro controller. For the 24V FAN1 the switch is made by Q13 and the
MOS Q108, the output smoothing filter L5, C8, C114. An over current detection is provided with the
shunt R102 and the comparator U8 (_OVER_I_FAN1)

Control and Auxiliary Circuits


The control of LVPS400 board is made by the micro controller U7 which manage the CAN bus by
the mean of a transceiver CAN U1. A specialized circuit U6 reset the micro controller at power on.
A red LED DS5 lights when the micro is in reset state. The two LED DS3 and DS4 blink alternatively
in normal operation.
An integrated voltage reference circuit U12 and the amplifiers U9 generate the two needed
reference voltage P10REF and M10REF.

3.2.11 Generator Software


The generator software runs on the kV control CPU.
Its main function are:
• console and/or system communication
• exposure sequencing (rotation, heater, exposure control, mA regulation)
• tube/generator thermal protection
• Image quality algorithms
• tube, AEC calibrations
• Tube/generator tracking
• generator diagnostics (application background diagnostics and service diagnostics)

3.2.11.1 System Communication


The generator has some communication capabilities: CAN, RS232 (not for PPC kV control).

Page 76 Section 3.0 - Generator “Jedi”


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
Each communication path is connected to the application software through a communication driver.
This mechanism allows:
• to have the same generator behavior regardless the communication path used to drive the
generator
• to connect several interfaces at the same time on the generator

3.2.11.2 Exposure Sequencing


Refer to Figure 2-41, Figure 2-42 and Figure 2-37 in the following discussion.

3.2.11.3 Tube/generator Thermal Protection


The generator software simulates HV power inverter, HV tank and tube temperature in real time.
These algorithms are based on generator and tube models. They use the real kV and mA applied
to the tube.
They are used to protect the generator and tube against overloads.
They are also used to predict the exposure parameters/number of exposures allowed based on the
current generator and tube thermal status.
The algorithms parameters are tube and generator power dependent. They are included in the tube
and generator database downloaded in the generator during manufacturing integration or
installation.
Depending on the system using the generator, the algorithms can be either active or inhibited.
For CT systems, the tube thermal algorithm included in the generator is inhibited. Tube protection
is managed at the OC level.

3.2.11.4 Calibrations
Calibrations handled by the generator software are:
• AEC calibration
• tube filament calibration
See the service manual for a description of these calibrations. These calibrations do not apply to
CT systems.

FILAMENT AGING
Tube filaments are aging during the tube life leading to mA inaccuracy. In order to get accurate mA,
the mA accuracy is tracked all over the tube life:
At the beginning of each exposure, the difference between the mA demand and the real mA is
measured
The drift is recorded. It is used with a slow time constant to correct the filament drive initial values.
During all the generator life, the software logs the drift on both focal spot in the generator saved
RAM.

3.2.11.5 Tube Spits Counting


The generator software counts the number of tube spits occurring during an exposure.
The count generates an error if:
• the number of tube spits exceeds the maximum number allowed for the medical application (X-
ray applications: 7 spits, CT applications: (100+8*T) spits where T is the exposure time in
seconds)
• the tube spits rate exceeds the maximum allowed for the medical application (CT applications:
20 spits/0,1s, X-ray applications n/a)
In both cases, the exposure is stopped and the error is reported to the system.

Chapter 2 - Theory of System Operation Page 77


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
If the count do not exceed the limits, the number of spits is reported to the system at the end of the
exposure.
During all the generator life, the software adds the number of tube spits detected and log it in the
generator saved RAM.

3.2.11.6 Generator Usage Tracking


During all the generator life, the software logs in the saved RAM the following parameters:
Tube Filament aging corrections for small filament

Tube Filament aging corrections for large filament

Tube Total number of spits

Tube Anode + cathode spits

3.3 Functional Description

3.3.1 Power-on Sequence


Generator power on can be achieved by various ways depending on the system (circuit breaker,
console ON/OFF, PDU contactor).
In all the cases, generator power on starts when input phases are applied to the generator.
For three phase Generator, the DC voltage rises on the AC/DC board when this voltage reaches
200VDC, the low voltage power supply starts providing the +15V/-15V bus (Rotation Leds DS1/DS2
lighting).
The +15V rise triggers the 5V rise on the kV control, heater and rotation (Led DS3 lighting) boards.
For single phase Generator, a DC voltage (400VDC,DS2 lighting)) is provided on ACDC board to
supply the low voltage power supply (NE1) as soon the input phases are applied. The low voltage
power supply starts providing the +15V/-15V bus (Rotation Leds DS1/DS2 lighting) and the
160VDC (DS1) for Heater board.
The +15V rise triggers the 5V rise on the kV control, heater and rotation (Led DS3 lighting) boards.
At this stage, many actions take place in parallel:
• kV control:
- software starts running the PRDs (1s) (in case of error, Leds S0-S7 display an error code)
- software downloads the kV control FPGA which starts regulating the inverter gate drivers
supply (in case of error Leds S0-S7 display an error code)
- software checks the hardware configuration:
* reads inverter identification
* reads HV tank identification
* reads system Interface identification
* talks on Control Bus to identify the function present
- In case of single phase generator. The software monitor the DC Bus pre load and full load
through low voltage power supply board. The sequence is the following:
* Check the DC Voltage value=0
* Monitor pre load relay on ACDC board during 15 seconds
* Check DC Bus voltage over 400V
* Monitor load contactor for full charge
* Remove pre load Relay after 5 seconds
* Check the DC Bus voltage over 450VDC min. and under 850VDC max
* In case of a wrong sequence an error is generated.
• heater:
- micro-controller starts running the PRDs (in case of error, Led ST0/ST1 flashes)
- then goes to the idle state
- heater supply bus reaches its final value

Chapter 2 - Theory of System Operation Page 79


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
• rotation:
- micro-controller starts by running the PRDs (in case of error Led ST0/ST1 flashes)
- then goes to the idle state
- gates drive supply reaches its final value
- DC Bus reaches its final value
• inverter: DC Bus reaches its final value on inverter LC and on gate drive supply

Once each main function is alive, kV control:


- checks the generator configuration consistency (in case of error, error message TBD is
send)
- installs the right hardware drivers
- talks to the system or the console (in case of no system/laptop presence detected, kV
control Leds S0-S7 display an error code)
- configures the final kV control FPGA
- sends to rotation and heater their database based on the knowledge of the tube selected
At this level, if no error has been detected, the generator is ready for the exposure procedure.

3.3.2 kV function
Refer to Figure 2-41 in the following discussion. KV function is mainly controlled by the kV control
exposure control function.
After power on, the exposure control FPGA is downloaded by the main CPU (and also DSP in case
of the PPC kV control board).
The FPGA then:
• configures the real-time lines to the system
• drives the inverter gate drive supply to provide the right voltage for the IGBT gates
• monitors the DC bus voltage, the IGBT gates voltage

Then the CPU receives the kV, mA, exposure time commands.
When the CPU receives the exposure enable signal (either by a communication message or by a
real time hardware line both linked to the prep button), it drives the filament drive and anode rotation
During this preparation phase, kV reference is applied to the hardware.
Once these functions are ready, CPU informs the exposure control that the generator is ready for
an exposure.
When exposure command goes in its active state, the CPU;
• starts exposure time counter
• starts mAs and brightness counters (for AEC cut-off) (if required by the application)
• measures kV demand, kV measure, DC bus, gate voltage, HV tank temperature each 16ms
during the exposure
• calculates new kV, mA reference in RAD tomography or ABC
• applies new kV, mA reference if the system/operator changes the parameters

Exposure control:
• starts the HV power inverter by driving the IGBTs
• put X-ray on in its active state
• regulates the inverter
• monitors the hardware safeties: tube spits, no kV, over kV, HV inverter over current, kV
regulation error

Page 80 Section 3.0 - Generator “Jedi”


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
When either exposure command goes down, exposure enable goes down, a fatal safety occurs or
a timer reaches its final count, the exposure control:
• stops the inverter
• puts X-ray on in its inactive state

CPU:
• store tube spit count, exposure count, exposure parameters
• computes the generator thermal status
When a tube spit occurs, exposure control stops the inverter 100us, informs the CPU that reads and
store the error, verify if the max number of spits is not reached, and restart if authorized. If it is a
hardware failure: exposure control stops the exposure, reports the error to the CPU, which in turn
that reports the error to the system.
When a measure goes out of range, the CPU stops the exposure and reports the error to the
system. The CPU also stores the error in the generator error log.

3.3.3 mA function
Refer to Figure 2-42 in the following discussion. mA function is mainly controlled by the kV control
CPU function.
After power on, the CPU sends a preheat command to the heater function (except for application
where preheat is not used).
Then the CPU receives the kV, mA and exposure time commands.
When the CPU receives the exposure enable signal (either by a communication message or by a
real time hardware line both linked to the prep button), it calculates the acquisition filament drive to
apply to the filament in order to match the required tube mA.
This calculation is based on:
• the filament drive values stored in the tube database
• the interpolation to calculate the filament drive for the (kV, mA) point selected
• the filament aging correction

Then it either:
• calculates the filament boost command to apply to the filament to fasten the filament
temperature rise and send it to the heater function. In this case, the boost duration is 400ms
and is followed by the acquisition command send to the heater function.
• or do not use any boost command and directly send the acquisition command to the heater
function

When exposure command goes in its active state, the CPU:


• starts the exposure
• measures the mA each 1ms (start 5ms after exposure start), compares it to the mA demand
and calculates the filament drive to apply to reach the mA demand
• sends each 1ms, the new filament drive to the heater function
• updates mA demand if required by the system or by generator algorithm (ABC mode, falling
load mode, variable mA mode)
• checks mA accuracy

The heater function:


• gets the filament drive demand each 1ms
• measures the heater inverter RMS current two times per 1ms, compares it to the filament drive
demand and applies the inverter frequency to reach the right filament drive current
• checks inverter RMS current to avoid exceeding the max filament temperature
Chapter 2 - Theory of System Operation Page 81
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
• sends each 100ms the inverter RMS current measure to the kV control CPU
When exposure command goes in its inactive state, the CPU either stay with the last filament drive
demand or goes in preheat mode or stops filament drive to allow a fast filament cooling before going
preheat. The rule depends on the application.

3.3.4 Rotation function


Refer to Figure 2-37 in the following discussion. Rotation function is mainly controlled by the kV
control CPU function.
When the CPU receives the exposure enable signal (either by a communication message or by a
real time hardware line both linked to the prep button), it sends the anode speed reference to the
rotation function.
Upon receiving this command, the rotation drive:
• compares it to the present anode speed. If the present speed is lower:
• gets from the tube database the current required to accelerate the anode and the acceleration
time to apply
• drives the inverter with the frequency required for the speed selected
• measure the phases currents, compare them to the current demand and applies the
modulation rate to supply the right stator current
• counts the acceleration time
• monitors rotation safeties
• sends back each 100ms the speed to the kV control CPU

The speed feedback is used by the kV control CPU to authorize exposure


Once the acceleration time is complete, the rotation drive applies the inverter current required for
the anode speed maintain.
When exposure command goes in its inactive state, the CPU either:
• sends a speed=0 command to the rotation to stop the anode rotation
• applies a “hold” time to maintain the anode rotation speed before stopping it
• applies a “hold” time to maintain the anode rotation speed before going to a low speed mode
depending on the application.

3.3.5 Power Supplies Distribution


Refer to Figure 2-43 in the following discussion.

3.3.6 Exception Handling


JEDI software performs auto-test at power up and continuously monitors the correct operation of
it’s functions during application. Any miss functioning is stored in the Jedi error log and reported to
the system through a protocol that vehicles error code.
Errors found can only be reported if the generator is powered on and alive.

3.3.6.1 Diagnostics
There are different levels of diagnostics:

Power on Diagnostics
At power up, the kV control performs its own initialization, checks its memory integrity (Checksum
of program and NVRam), and starts the communication with its peripherals and the system;
Communication is permanently checked afterwards. Then it initializes the Rotation board and
Heater board with their respective Data base parameters and loads kV control FPGA.
Page 82 Section 3.0 - Generator “Jedi”
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
8 LEDs (S7.S0) on kV control board show the software status.
During power on, the Heater board and the Rotation board CPU’s initialize themselves and check
their memory integrity and hardware. If a problem is encountered, a PRD error is reported to the kV
control.

Alive Diagnostics
1.) Under application. Faults will be reported through an error code and associated message.
Some are straight forward and drive to the root cause. Refer to recommended action in the
error list.
2.) Diagnostics run separately:
- Heating without HV nor rotation
- Rotation without HV nor filament
- Inverter gate command diagnostic
- Inverter in Short circuit diagnostic
- no load HV without anode rotation nor filament heating
- AEC diagnostic
3.) Manual diagnostics: Through troubleshooting guide based on error message or when the
generator does not reply.

3.3.6.2 Error Code Structure


The error code structure described in this chapter applies to the JEDI error detection and logging.
JEDI error log file can be accessed from the system through the system console or a laptop (Jedi
error log upload functionality).
When an error is detected, it is sent to the system and is logged in parallel in the JEDI error log file.
The file contains 64 logs maximum. Each log shows the following structure:

Simplified Generat Error Error Data associated to number of Date and


error code or class code the error code occurrences time
Phase

The first four fields will be described in the following paragraphs.


The field “data associated with the error code” shows detailed information about the state of the
generator when the error occurred. Examples: rotation high speed acceleration state, small focus
preheat, tube number 1 selected
The field “number of occurrences” is used to log the same error occurring several times
consecutively. Instead of filling the error log file with the same error several times consecutively, the
first error is logged and the following errors are recorded through increasing the “number of
occurrences” field.
The field “date and time” stores the date and time when the error occurred. This is the Jedi internal
date and time which may be different of the system date and time. In case of logging several time
the same error, the field is indicating the date and time of the first occurrence.

Generator Phase definition


The generator phase field contains the state of the generator when the error occurred:

Generator phase Description

1 Powered-Up; Waiting for Configuration
2 Stand by: Config done. Waiting for a preparation command
3 Preparation in Progress: JEDI gets ready to take X-rays
4 Ready for exposures (Rotor at speed; Filament; HV inverter drive ready;
no errors): waiting for an exposure command
5 High voltage on
6 error detected and not yet cleared
Table 2-3 Generator Phase definition

Error class definition


There are 5 classes of errors that correspond to different levels of impact to the system.
Class of errors correspond to the seriousness of the error and the system software will manage
operations upon it.

Page 84 Section 3.0 - Generator “Jedi”


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL

Class Description
1 Errors which have no impact on the system operation.
Those are errors detected in background diagnostics during application. They are
referred as “Warning” errors, to monitor drifts and used for engineering tracking.
The generator phase remains unchanged.
They are stored in JEDI error log.
2 Errors which are detected by JEDI and that are recoverable automatically without
noticeable effect on the system, such as error related to recovered tube spits.
The generator phase remains unchanged.
Those errors usually occur during exposure.
3 Errors detected by JEDI during exposure. They stop the exposure and turn the generator
in a safe state.
Error will be reset on Exposure Command release. It will require another Exposure
Command to restart the sequence.
The generator phase is set to “error” until the error is cleared
4 Errors which are related to any hardware failures, software application or communication
errors.
JEDI will turn to a safe state.
If preparation is in progress, it is stopped.
They are cleared either by a reset error action from the system (for system having a reset
error mechanism) or by a prep release or by a new prep command.
The generator phase is set to “error” until the error is cleared.
Application can not work if errors is persistent.
5 Those are codes that may rise up when generator or tube temperature limits are reached.
The application waits until the thermal information disappears. The error information is
temporary.
The generator phase is set to “error” until the error is cleared.
Table 2-4 Error class definition

Error code definition


Each error code consists in two fields (which cannot be generated and used separately):
the first field describes the Jedi function which is faulty (referred to as function code)
the second field describes the error detected
Example: Error code 0306 means: 03 means high voltage generation function and 06: no kV feedback on
anode.

Intensifier (II)

Figure 2-60 Imaging System

The Optics Control Board sends and receives signals, to and from the Gitane board over the CAN
RT lines. The OCB provides +/- 12v power to the Photodiode Board (PDB), controls the amplifier
circuits on the PDB, sets PDB gain, and counts the pulses of the frequency signal from the PDB.
Results are sent to the Gitane through the RT line.
The OCB also controls the Image Intensifier power supply, ADCS, NDF filter position and Iris
position. Motor “over-current” detection circuits on the OCB protect the motor, and not the OCB.
The Fan operates on +24VDC and is used to cool the CCD
The ADCS measures the actual earth’s magnetic field by running current through a coil around the
II to collapse the earth’s field. A new feature, includes an integrated EFC (Earth Field
Compensation) tool. No calibration is required but the ADCS must be set to the correct II size.

Note: The ADCS has a serial link connection to the OCB. The ADCS is configured by s/w (through OCB/
Configure RS232 messaging) to be operative with 32 cm or 40 cm Image Intensifiers. This is set during
ADCS to correct manufacture or can be set by Service personnel. Service: when an ADCS is replaced this
II size parameter must be configured to match the your Image Intensifier’s size. Please Take care about
that: if the ADCS is mis-configured, the earth field compensation does not work properly!

II High Voltage Power Supply (HVPS) supplies power to the focusing and size grids for each field
of view. It also supplies high voltage for the anode. The HVPS is specific to II type.
CCD Camera contains photo sensitive semiconductor and control electronics. The CCD converts II
light output to a 12 bit digital video signal. CCD technology offers many benefits:
• Low dark current
• Little lag
• 30 frames/second at 1024 x 1024 pixels
• Progressive scanning
• High resolution and brightness uniformity
• Good quantum efficiency
The optics assembly provides an optical interface between the image intensifier and the CD

The Photodiode Board Assembly contains Photodiodes, which convert light to a voltage. The
assembly is composed of the Photodiode board, a mask, and a neutral density filter. See Figure 2-

4.2 CCD Camera


Charge Coupled Devices (CCD) are not vacuum pickup tubes but integrated circuits that have a
large number of microscopic “photosites” or pixels arranged in horizontal rows and vertical columns.
The photo sites act as “wells” and are filled by light energy.
The CCD Camera uses a high dynamic range 1024x1024 CCD chip. Each pixel photosite is able
to handle up to 150 000 electrons. Together with very low noise floor, this provides a very high
dynamic range sensor for Record acquisitions.
The image information is integrated during the whole x--ray exposure time. At the end of the
exposure period, the charges are transferred into a memory area of the chip, in order to be read-
out. The transfer time is very short (less than 0.5ms). This allows starting the next image integration
right after the previous one, while the readout takes place.
The image is read off the CCD target by both analog and digital techniques. The amount of charge
at each site is an analog function of the light intensity. Digital transfer techniques are used to
transfer the well charge levels to an output terminal.
Lag is virtually nonexistent because the charge transfer is almost instantaneous. The Pick- up tube
mechanisms for lag, carrier mobility, and insufficient beam current to effect target discharge are
absent.
CCD's have very little geometric distortion (pincushion etc.) because they are not scanned by a
moving electron beam. Like “Saticon” PUT's the CCD also has very low dark current which makes
it ideal for digital record applications. During digital record exposures the image is formed on the
CCD target. The image is read off the target once the exposure has ended.

Figure 2-62 CCD Camera

The analog signal of the CCD chip goes through a correlated double sampling (CDS) circuit and is
amplified by a programmable gain amplifier (camera gain). It is then converted to a 12 bit digital
signal via an Analog to Digital Converter (ADC).
The camera readout has 2 modes of operation:
• Dual channel mode: the CCD chip outputs the pixel data on 2 separate outputs, at 20MHz
each. The 2 outputs are merged after ADC to provide a combined pixel rate of 40MHz. This
mode is used for fluoro where frame rate can be up to 30fps.
• Single channel mode: the CCD chip outputs the pixel data on a single output, at 20 MHz. This
mode is used in digital Record, where frame rate doesn’t exceed 7.5fps (compatible with a
pixel frequency of 20MHz). This mode provides better brightness uniformity between left and
right half of the image, which is better for digital record.

Note: In fluoro, in some occasions (first fluoro after boot or large camera gain changes), the image can
Brightness display momentarily a “split image” artifact. The left half of the image has a slight brightness offset
Differences can vs. the right half. The artifact vanishes after a few seconds of fluoro. This is due to a dynamic gain
Occur. balancing algorithm in the CCD which takes some time to converge. This is the normal behavior of
the camera, not a failure.

The digital video data is transmitted over the CCD cable in LVDS electrical format over 12 twisted
pairs (1 per bit). Pixel clock, external sync, serial link and 24V power supply are also transmitted
within the CCD cable. The total length of the CCD cable can be up to 30m.
The CCD head has no internal cooler. Heat is mostly conducted through the optics to the II
structure. In addition, a fan flows air though the camera side vents. This fan is powered by the
camera head (24V. The fan rotates whenever the camera is powered.

Please refer to Figure 2-63 as needed, during the following discussion.

4.3.1.1 Spectral Filters


The X-ray radiation is hardened (low energy x-ray is attenuated) by one of three spectral filters or
no spectral filter can be selected. The spectral filters have a thickness of 0.1, 0.2 or 0.3 mm of
copper. The filter mechanism is motorized and the desired filter is automatically selected depending
on calculated patient thickness and procedure being performed.

4.3.1.2 Anti-Scatter Grid


The anti-scatter Grid is motorized and can be removed from the field by the operator to lower patient
dose. The anti-scatter Grid ratio is 10:1 and the focal distance is 80cm (useful range 69 to 96cm).

4.3.1.3 Image Intensifier (II)

4.3.1.4 Image Intensifier Tube


The Image Intensifier has 4 Fields of View (FOV) and converts x-ray radiation at the input to light
at the output. It’s available in 2 sizes: 40cm and 32cm. It uses new technology, which provides
improvements in contrast, MTF and conversion factor.

Chapter 2 - Theory of System Operation Page 123


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
4.3.1.5 High Voltage Power Supply (HVPS)
The HVPS supplies the image intensifier grids G1, G2 and G3 with high voltage. Each grid voltage
is programmable and is individually adjusted for each II/HVPS couple in order to optimize the image
size, focus and focus uniformity. Each II type (40 or 32cm) uses a different type of power supply.
The HVPS is controlled by the OCB through an RS232 serial link, which provides control over
magnification and grid voltage settings. The primary power of the HVPS is 24V (up to 600mA). It is
provided by the OCB.

4.3.1.6 Active Distortion Correction System (ADCS)


The Active Distortion Correction System corrects the distortion caused by the Earth magnetic field.
This distortion is known as the “S--distortion” because of the shape it will impose on straight line
objects.
The ADCS uses a field sensor that measures the axial component of the Earth magnetic field. It
uses the sensor output to drive current into a coil placed around the entrance of the II tube, which
in effect will generate a counter magnetic field compensating the axial portion of the Earth field.
The ADCS doesn’t correct II pin--cushion distortion, which is caused by the spheric shape of the II
input.
The ADCS is fully automatic, it doesn’t require any site specific calibration.
The ADCS module uses a different set of internal parameters for each II type. The II type is
configured via a software command. The ADCS is commanded through an RS232 serial link by
OCB. This link is used to setup and read back the II type setting.
The primary power of the ADCS is 24V. It is provided by the OCB.
In terms of cabling, the ADCS provides a link between the OCB and the HVPS. It is connected to
both OCB and HVPS. The ADCS passes along 24V power and RS232 communications from OCB
to HVPS.

4.3.1.7 Optics
The Optics Assembly provides an optical interface between the II and the CCD Camera. The
collimation lens focuses the light to infinity (parallel light). Then a mirror deflects the light 90
degrees, towards the NDF filter.

4.3.1.8 Real time light measurement


Samples the light in a central region of interest of the II output screen to feed a photodiode. The
photodiode signal is amplified by the photo-diode board and sent to the generator to cut--off the
exposure in AEC mode. The region of interest is defined by a mask. This mask is setup by default
to sample a square region covering 64% of the image area. Other masks are supplied, with circular
or smaller ROIs. Smaller ROI is 32%.

4.3.1.9 NDF
The NDF (Neutral Density Filter) is motorized and has a typical optical density of 1.5 +/- 10%. It is
used to attenuate the light in Record Mode. This allows the camera iris to open up more (lower f-
stop setting) and thus decreased the depth of field. In Fluoro Mode the filter is driven out of the field.

4.3.1.10 IRIS
The Iris is motorized and is used to control the amount of light entering the CCD Camera. It is set
to a fixed position for Record Mode but is variable for Fluoro Mode.

4.3.1.11 TV Lens
The TV lens focuses the parallel light onto the target of the CCD Camera.

Page 124 Section 4.0 - Imaging System


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
4.3.1.12 CCD Camera
The CCD Camera target is an array (1024 x 1024) of pixel photo sensitive wells. Each site or well
is filled with an amount of light energy depending on the intensity of the light hitting that point. The
image information is read off the target array sequentially, line by line, as an analog video voltage
signal. The analog signal is then converted to a 12 bit digital signal via an Analog to Digital
Converter (ADC).

4.3.1.13 Image Correction Board (ICB)


The 12 bit digital image data goes to the Image Correction Board in the Saturn. This board applies
offset, gain and bad pixel corrections to the image data. The CCU Board applies ABD Calculations,
Image Re-scaling and Gamma LUT’s.
The pixel offset and bad pixel correction data are factory calibrated using a temperature cycling and
burn-in process. Normally, they do not need to be updated throughout the life of the equipment. If
you experience bad pixels.
The calibration data is stored within the camera head and downloaded at boot into the ICB. This
suppresses any dependency between the camera head and the ICB. Any camera head can be
coupled with any ICB without the need for calibration or setting.
The channel gain balance and global offset are adjusted dynamically by the ICB through a closed
loop mechanism. These loops optimize left--right gain balancing and keep constant black level.
Saturn power supply provides +12VDC which is converted (DC//DC) in the ICB to generate the
+24VDC needed to power the CCD camera head.
The ICB provides a serial communication link with the camera head. All features of the camera head
can be controlled by the host PC software through the ICB PCI interface.
The ICB provides a synchronization signal to the CCD head in order to synchronize the integration,
transfer and readout phases of the CCD with the x--ray exposures and the Saturn internal timing
reference. The synchronization signal is provided to ICB by the Gitane board.

4.3.1.14 ABD (Automatic Brightness Detection)


The ABD function provides a signal representing the brightness of the image in the ROI (Region Of
Interest). There are three ROl’s selectable for both normal and pediatric studies (see page 7). The
ABD calculation incorporates a Black Level threshold manipulation, which is intended to provide a
means of shutter compensation. The threshold value is set to a level just above the shutter
amplitude on a flat field image. In this way, the effect of collimating within the ROI will not result in
an increase of average brightness. The ABD signal is used by the Exposure Management function
to calculate the Dose Feedback which is then used to calculate the Patient Size. The ABD signal is
also used for actual image brightness feedback to control camera gain.

4.3.1.15 LUT
A Gamma LUT is used to compress the white regions of the image. The purpose of this is to
produce an overall image chain gamma response of unity, thus producing the best input to output
image reproduction.

4.3.1.16 Image Acquisition Board / Digital Acquisition Board


The Image Acquisition Board (Saturn V1) or Digital Acquisition Board (Saturn V2) applies the Fluoro
Noise Reduction (FNR) filters. This reduces the amount of “noise” in the image but increases the
lag. Left to Right image reversal is also performed on this board. The image can be stored on the
hard disk or sent to the Image Display Board (Saturn V1) or Digital Display Board (Saturn V2) for
eventual display on the monitor.

Chapter 2 - Theory of System Operation Page 125


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
4.3.1.17 Image Display Board / Digital Display Board
The Image Display Board (Saturn V1) or Digital Display Board (Saturn V2) applies the Edge
Enhancement filters and also the monitor display LUT’s. The digital video is reduced to 8 bit and
then converted to an analog signal by a Digital to Analog Converter (DAC). It is then sent out as a
composite video signal to the monitor on a co-axial cable.

4.3.1.18 Optics Control Board (OCB)


The Optics Control Board provides control of all the optics motorized elements, all the ADCS, HVPS
functions and Photo-diode board. The Optics Control Board receives information from the Gitane
Board over the CAN Bus. The Optics Control Board controls the II Power Supply, ADCS, NDF Filter
position and Iris positions.
The iris aperture is controlled through a software (in OCB micro controller) PID loop using the iris
potentiometer feed-back. The iris is commanded in percentage of its maximum transmission (fully
open). The maximum and minimum transmission must be calibrated for each OCB/optics couple.
OCB calibrates them by moving the IRIS to max. and min. mechanical limitations. This is done
through the iris LUT calibration. This calibration also refines the precision of the law linking the
commanded aperture and the actual light transmission. The OCB embeds a first order model for
this law, which ensures coarse precision. The calibration further improves the precision.
The NDF position (in or out) is controlled through a software (in OCB micro controller) PID loop
using the NDF DC motor and feedback potentiometer.
Both iris and NDF control circuits feature an over current detection circuit in order to protect the
motors and OCB in case of failure of one of the elements. This circuit allows 3 over current events
before sending an error message to the system (iris_overcurrent, ndf_overcurrent) and
blocking the motor operation. To reset the circuit and resume operation, the OCB board must be
reset. This can be done by powering off the OCB, pressing the on--board reset button or real time
reset coming from the Gitane Board.
Both iris and NDF control circuits feature a time out mechanism which will trigger an error message
(iris_timeout or ndf_timeout) if the target position is not within tolerances after 600ms. Time
out errors will not block the iris or NDF operation but indicate a potential failure on either the optics
or the OCB.
The OCB communicates with the ADCS and HVPS through a single RS232 serial link. This link
goes first to the ADCS, then to the HVPS. The ADCS will process the RS232 message first. If this
message is for the HVPS, the will pass the message to the HVPS. If an error occurs in the
communication between OCB and ADCS/HVPS, the OCB will send an error message
(sci_communication_error).
The OCB receives 24V input power from the OCB cable connected to its J1 subD connector. It uses
this input voltage to generate internal +12V, --12V, +5V, --5Vand provides 24V on the J4 connector
to ADCS/HVPS.
The OCB communicates with the Gitane board in the Saturn PC through the OCB cable.
Communication is done through a 250kbps CANbus, a reset line (from Gitane to OCB) and the
brightness pulse line (from OCB to Gitane) coming from the PDB.

4.3.1.19 PhotoDiode Board (PDB)


The photodiode board provides a real time light measurement signal used to control the duration of
the exposure in digital Record AEC mode. The exposure cutoff is made by the generator after the
target dose has been received by the image chain.
The PDB uses a photodiode to convert light from the optics pickup into a photo current. The photo
current is converted into a voltage and amplified through a variable gain amplifier. The amplified
voltage is converted into a frequency encoded pulse signal through a voltage--to--frequency
converter. The greater the light intensity, the higher the output frequency. The brightness signal is
frequency coded so as to insure noise immunity.

Page 126 Section 4.0 - Imaging System


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
The photodiode gain is set by the exposure manager for each dose setting and scaled with the II
conversion factor to provide accurate dose rate vs. frequency feedback.
The generator counts the pulses and stops the exposure when the target pulse count is reached.
The output signal from PDB is fed into OCB in TTL level. OCB converts it to CAN electrical format
and sends it to the Saturn Gitane through the OCB cable.
The ribbon cable between OCB and PDB holds the following signals:
• PDB power supply voltages from OCB to PDB.
• Gain control signals from OCB to PDB.
• Brightness pulse from PDB to OCB.

4.3.2 Digital Radiographic Mode


For the following discussion, please refer to Figure 2-63 as needed.
1.) The prism sends a light sample using the light pipe to a Photodiode located on the Photodiode
board. A Photodiode mask (square) is used (64% is the default) as a ROI. A neutral density
filter is also used for high II CF in order to reduce the light at Photodiode entrance.
2.) The Photodiode converts the light to a voltage. The voltage is converted to a frequency. The
greater the light, the greater higher the frequency.
3.) The signal arrives at the generator through the Optics control board and Gitane Board. Signal
pulses are counted and the exposure is terminated when a predefined count is reached.
4.) While counting is taking place, the Optics control board performs other functions:
- Channel exposure management signals the NDF motor and port, and Iris motor and pot.
- Channels controls signals to the II power supply for selection of a FOV.
- Supplies power to the ADCS

4.3.3 Digital Image


For the following discussion, please refer to Figure 2-63 as needed.
1.) X-ray is produced at the tube and hardened using one of three spectral filters. The filter used
is automatically selected. Selection depends on patient thickness and the procedure chosen.
2.) The objective lens focuses the light to infinity (parallel). The mirror then deflects it through the
neutral density filter (NDF) to the CCD sensor.
3.) The optical density of the NDF filter attenuates the light some. This allows the camera iris to
open wider and decrease the depth of field. During Flouro exposures, the NDF filter rotates out
of the image field.
4.) The motorized Iris then controls the amount of light entering the CCD camera.
5.) The TV lens focuses the light onto target of the CCD camera.
6.) The 12 bit image data goes to the image correction board and CCU. The CCU applies ABD
calculation, image re-scaling and Gamma lookups.
7.) The 10 bit image data now goes to the Image Acquisition board, which applies Flouro Noise
Reduction (FNR) filters.
8.) At this point, the image can be sent to hard disk or to the image display board for display. The
image display board reduces the image data to 8 bits and then to a composite video signal.
9.) Video signal goes to the monitor.

5.2 Application (Saber) Software


Saber, name for the application software, is the Positioner control software used in this Diagnostics
X-ray imaging system. It supports the positioning of X-ray source(s) and receptor(s), control of
collimators, patient positioning, and displays/controls for positioner and some system parameters.
In addition, it provides the capability for positioner calibrations and positioner diagnostics. In a
Precision system, positioner devices under Saber software control are OTS, IDD, Table,
Collimators, and some peripheral components such as room door and room light.
OTS positions the overhead X-ray tube, and can be moved in three axis - vertical, longitudinal, and
lateral. IDD is part of the mechanical assembly with the Image Intensifier, which also can be moved
in vertical, longitudinal, and lateral directions. Both OTS and IDD have locks to keep the devices in
place. Additionally, IDD provides two console screens for locks status and fluoro/record displays.
In fluoro/record operation mode, Saber software will display on IDD console selective system
parameters, such as techniques, FOV, II_MAG, Contrast Media etc. It also gives user the control
of some of these parameters and image acquisition functions such as fluoro store and fluoro loop
store.
There are two collimators controlled by Saber software, which adjusts the field of view size based
on user inputs or source-to-receptor distance. FOV change can be either manually or automatically
depending on the user input and operating condition. Saber software controls the table motion
based on the table side and IDD control inputs. This includes eight-way table top motions and table
angulation. Safety limits are checked by the software before and during motion to avoid collision.

5.3 Movement Functions


The motion buttons are connected to the Positioner IO board located in the positioner cabinet. This
board detects button presses and sends a message to the Mars computer. The System Controller/
Mars computer processes the request and sends a command to the CAN amps or the positioner IO
board for a specific action.

5.3.1 Power Assist Longitudinal

Figure 2-70 Longitudinal Power Assist

When the power assist handle is pressed in the longitudinal direction, a circuitry next to it in the IDD
creates a voltage proportional to the force applied. This voltage goes to the Pos IO board located
in the positioner cabinet which routes it to the analog input of the Longitudinal Power assist CAN
amplifier in the positioner cabinet. This CAN amplifier digitizes the signal and sends a CAN
message to the Mars computer located in the system cabinet through the CAN bus. Mars processes
the information and sends a torque command to the CAN amplifier through the CAN bus. The CAN
amplifier sends a pulse width modulated current proportional to the torque demand to the
longitudinal DC motor drive. This is a 24 V DC motor.

5.3.2 Power Assist Vertical

Figure 2-71 Vertical (SID) Power Assist

When the power assist handle is pressed in the vertical direction, a circuitry next to it in the IDD
creates a voltage proportional to the force applied. This voltage goes to the Pos IO board located

Page 132 Section 5.0 - Positioning System


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
in the positioner cabinet, which routes it to the analog input of the Vertical Power assist CAN
amplifier located in the positioner cabinet. This CAN amplifier digitizes the signal and sends a CAN
message to the Mars computer located in the system cabinet through the CAN bus. Mars processes
the information and sends a torque command to the CAN amplifier through the CAN bus. The CAN
amplifier sends a pulse width modulated current proportional to the torque demand to the Vertical
DC motor drive. This is a 24 V DC motor. This motor has a resistor in series. This resistor is located
next to the motor. This resistor limits the maximum current that can be driven by the CAN amp.
During calibration of the system this resistor is set to the proper value such that the max power
assist from the motor is just over the frictional force in the mechanism. This is done by setting the
time the IDD takes to go from top to bottom to be 3+/-0.5 seconds when the power assist handle is
pressed down to the maximum level but without the hand applying a net force pushing the IDD
down. This is done by pushing the bar down with the fingers while supporting the IDD with the
thump.

5.3.3 Positioner/Table Angulation

Figure 2-72 Positioner Angulation

When the table tilt button at the table side is pressed, the signal is send to the Pos IO board located
in the positioner cabinet. It converts it into a CAN bus command and sends it to the Mars computer.
It processes the information and sends a CAN message to the CAN amplifier. An analog output
from this CAN amp is connected to the tilt drive panel located in the positioner cabinet. This panel
drives the tilt drive in the Gantry. This is a 220V DC drive.
When the tilt knob on the IDD is used, an analog voltage proportional to the turn of the knob is send
to the Pos IO board. This voltage is converted to a digital value and it is send as a CAN command
to the Mars computer. The rest is similar to the table side button.
The table tilt angle is read by a potentiometer and it is send as an analog voltage to the Pos IO
board. This board converts it to digital value and it is send to the Mars computer for processing.

When the table top longitudinal or the lateral drive button is pressed on the table side or using the
joystick, that switch closure is send to the Pos IO board located in the positioner cabinet. This board
detects this signal and sends a CAN message to the Mars computer in the system cabinet. It then
sends an On or Off command to the Positioner IO board as a CAN message. This board turns On
or Off relays in the Long/Lat drive board in the positioner cabinet. There is 120V AC connected to
this relay. This relay drives this 120V AC to the AC motors which drive the table top located in the
table.

board applies a 24 V or removes a 24 V to these locks as needed.

5.3.6 IDD Console Screen


When a button around the screen is pressed, the IDD console controller located in the IDD creates
a command and using a RS422 protocol the command is send to the CAN bridge located in the
Positioner cabinet. This CAN bridge converts the RS422 signal into a CAN message and sends it
to the Mars computer. The Mars computer processes the information and passes the necessary
information to the other computers. Once the console display changes are determined it is send as
a CAN message from the Mars computer to the CAN bridge. CAN bridge converts it into a RS422
level signal and it is send to the IDD console controller located in the IDD. The controller displays
the information on the IDD console screen.

5.3.7 Prep/ Expose Buttons on the IDD/ Fluoro foot Switch


When these buttons are pressed a switch closure signal is send from the table to the Pos IO board
located in the positioner cabinet. This board drives two separate RT bus lines (one for Prep and
another one for Expose). The RT bus is a differential bus and signals in this bus has a logic of active
low. (When the signal is in the low state, it is logically active and vice versa). This goes to the Venus
user interface console. The Venus reads this signal and the software executes the appropriate
sequence. The RT bus is also connected to the Mars computer Gitane Bd. The hardware on this
board along with software commands to this board sends hardware signals to the Jedi generator to
enable exposures. This is a hardware path from the prep expose switch to the Jedi generator. In
addition there are commands send by software to Jedi through the second CAN bus which is
connected just between the Mars and the Jedi along with the RT bus lines between the Mars and
the Jedi.

5.3.8 Prep/Expose buttons on the Venus console.


When these buttons are pressed, it drives the RT bus just like the Pos IO board. Venus reads the
RT bus change just like when it is done by the Pos IO board. The rest of the operation is same as
the sequence explained above.

When the Grid or Cone button is pressed on the IDD console, the micro controller in the IDD
converts it into a command and it is send as a RS422 signal to the CAN bridge in the Positioner
cabinet. This CAN bridge converts it into a CAN message and sends it as a CAN message to the
to the Mars computer in the system cabinet. Mars processes that information and sends it to the
CAN bridge as a CAN message. The CAN bridge converts it into a RS422 signal and sends it as a
RS422 signal to the DSC box in the IDD. The controller in this DSC box drives the Cone and the
grid to the appropriate position.

The predecessor of the DSC2 circuit board will be referred to as the DSC Assembly. As Precision
500 evolved, DSC2 was introduced to simplify and improve reliability of Precision 500 systems.
The previous DSC (2117101) assembly was implemented on the GE “Legacy R&F” systems in
1995. Its purpose was to control 6 servomotors and communicate with the Positioner cabinet over
a RS-422 serial line. It consisted of three (3) stacked printed wire assemblies.
When the Image Intensifier (II) video signal was digitized for the Precision 500, traditional spot films
were no longer necessary, as this function could be done in software. Four of the original six DSC
axes of motion were responsible for traditional mechanical spot film functions. On the DSC
assembly originally used in the Precision 500D (2117101-7), the components driving these 4 axes
were left unpopulated.
As technology evolved, a single board can be made to provide the needed functionality. The main
form of communication in the Precision 500D system is CAN, and the serial link used to talk to the
DSC assembly. Originally done with a purchased part called a CAN bridge; it is now possible to
bring this functionality into the DSC2 circuit board. DSC2 circuit board and related cable changes
make it impractical to support previous Precision 500 systems.
The DSC2 circuit board performs several main tasks:
• Control the two remaining servomotors in the IDD, the Cone and the Grid.
• Communicate with the Aretha system software via a CAN link.
• Assume the functionality of the Power Assist Handle Pre-Amp board.
• Intercept digital and analog signals from the IDD console and convert them into CAN.
• Provide the power interface to the under table collimator.
It does this with minimal wiring changes to the Positioner cabinet and table base.

5.3.10.2 Functional Operation


The previous Digital Servo Controller assembly design allowed for six (6) axes of motion to be
controlled. The hardware involved included a dedicated PC104 board, servo control board and
servo amplifier board. With the film-less products (Precision 500D), only two axes of motion (Cone
and Grid) are required. In systems with the old DSC, the power assist handles were amplified using
a pre-amplifier board (46-321188) and then converted to CAN signals by the CAN motion amplifiers
in the Positioner cabinet. In the Aretha program, RS-422 signals from the IDD were converted to
CAN using a costly off-the-shelf Bridge device.
The DSC2 circuit board incorporate a dual-axis motion control driver and CAN bridge into its design.
The need for the old external CAN bridge now eliminated. The power assist handles are amplified
and converted to CAN on the DSC2 circuit board, eliminating the old pre-amp board. Lastly, some
analog and digital I/O signal conversion to CAN is also now done on the circuit board.
Backwards compatibility with the previous 6 axis DSC assembly is not possible. Figure 2-76
shows the Precision 500D architecture with a DSC2 circuit board installed.

Figure 2-76 DSC2 Circuit Board Functions

The primary functions of the DSC2 board, as mentioned before, are:


• To control the Cone and Grid servo motors in the IDD.
• Transmit and receive commands to and from the Positioner subsystem via an internal CAN
bridge.
• Provide a way to put discrete and analog console signals onto the CAN bus.
• Facilitate serial IDD console communication via an internal CAN bridge.
• Assume the functionality of the power assist handle pre-amp, and place the result on CAN.
• Move +24VDC from the Image Intensifier power supply into unused pins in the CAN trunk for
the collimator to use.
The 2 servos controlled using a PID position loop. The output is a PWM signal, and the position is
detected via a quadrature encoder on each servomotor. High-level motion commands come from
the CAN serial link - they are not generated locally under normal operation. The exception to this is
during boot calibration, which occurs after every reset or power-up. During this calibration, the
board must locate the “home” position of the grid by checking for a stall in 2 cases - grid in and grid
out. The cone calibration is similar, but occurs during normal operation, and only when the user
requests movement.
The DSC2 is connected to the CAN bus, which the system controller uses to communicate with
various Positioner subsystems. This bus utilizes the CAN standard pin-out and communicates at
250kb/s. The DSC2 has the I/O functionality of the CAN chip utilized on the Positioner I/O board
(2293142), allowing the DSC2 to convert discrete and analog signals to CAN locally in the IDD,
instead of sending the signals back to the Positioner cabinet (as in the old DSC assembly). In
addition, the DSC2 provides a CAN to serial bridge with at least two channels; one for on board
communication and one to allow the IDD console to talk to the CAN bus.
The power assist handle contains two “Hall effect” sensors that indicate the amount of force being
applied to the handle. The old pre-amp board was originally used to condition the output of the
handle and pass the differential analog voltage all the way back to the Positioner I/O board. Now,

Chapter 2 - Theory of System Operation Page 137


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
the DSC2 circuit board conditions the handle outputs to the proper voltage level, and converts them
to CAN. This eliminates the need for a separate pre-amp board.
The under table (u/t) collimator is the termination point for the CAN bus. In addition, the u/t
collimator needs to be supplied with +24VDC and ground from the Image Intensifier (II) power
supply. The CAN trunk from the table base comes into the DSC2, as well as the +24VDC from the
II power supply. The +24VDC power is channeled into 4 unused CAN pins, and sent out along with
the CAN trunk to the u/t collimator.
The board is powered by a dedicated +24VDC power supply from the Positioner Cabinet. This is in
turn converted on board to other voltages.

Motion Control
The primary output of the DSC2 is the control for the cone and grid servo-motors. This control is in
the form of variable duty cycle, pulse width modulation (PWM). The inputs to the motion controller
of the DSC are the quadrature encoded position data from each channel, the current sense
determined by A/D converters, the cone's optical home switch, and any commands from the
positioner subsystem that arrive from the internal CAN bridge. The following are the high level
specifications related to motion control:
• 3 Amps is considered “over current.”
• Current “ripple” must be < 10%

Chapter 2 - Theory of System Operation Page 139


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
• Transfer time for the grid must be < 1500ms
• Accuracy of the cone and grid is +/- 1.5mm
The motion control functions are described below.

QUADRATURE DECODE
Quadrature pulses are two pulse trains that are 90 degrees out of phase. This method allows shaft
direction to be determined along with shaft position. The DSC2 currently interfaces with encoders
that generate 200 counts per encoder wheel revolution (CPR). In addition, the cone and grid have
a 10:1 gear reduction. This ultimately equates to 2000 CPR for the cone and grid. If signal A leads
signal B, then the direction is forward. If signal A lags behind signal B, then the direction is reverse.
This data, in the form of a count of pulses, must be presented to the software to determine if the
duty cycle must be increased or decreased. The data will be read by the motion control software at
least every 10ms.

PWM CREATION
The hardware must create a variable duty cycle pulse train based on a 16 bit command. The PWM
will run with a frequency of at least 10kHz, and it will be updated a minimum of every 10ms. These
specifications attempt to keep the motion smooth and controlled.

POWER ELECTRONICS
The DSC2 is the final interface to the cone and grid motors. It must drive them at a maximum of 3A
in either forward or reverse for a maximum of 1.5s. In practice, sustained 3A current draw for this
length of time would not be seen. The implementation of choice is an H-Bridge, which allows them
to be driven in both directions depending upon which transistors are turned on. It also allows for a
braking function.

CURRENT SENSING
In addition to position sensing through the Quadrature encoders, the motion control function needs
to determine the current flowing to each motor at any given time. This is mainly to keep the PWM
in check and to protect the motors against an overload situation. The preferred implementation is a
current sense resistor (somewhere in the power electronics) whose voltage drop is read by an A/D
converter. The current reading must be available at least every 10ms.

CONTROL ALGORITHM
The motion control algorithm shall move the cone and grid as quickly and as smoothly as possible.
Overshoot should be minimized while still meeting the specs listed in Motion Control on page 139.

CAN Communications
The Positioner subsystem communicates with various peripherals via a CAN bus that uses the
CANOpen protocol. The word “CAN” is used generically to mean “a CAN bus that uses the
CANOpen protocol.” As mentioned previously, the old DSC communicates via an asynchronous
serial protocol (RS-422). The IDD console also communicates this way, and its serial lines pass
through the DSC on the way to the Positioner cabinet.
On DSC assembly Precision 500D, the method of converting CAN messages into serial is to use
an external CAN bridge mounted in the Positioner cabinet. The CAN Bridge takes CAN packets and
converts them to the serial communication, and vice versa. The functionality of this 2 channel bridge
is moved onto the DSC2 by using the generic CAN Core (2343467) designed by GE. It essentially
relocates the bridge to a different physical location and utilize a different node address, but it
functionally operates the same way and required minimal system software changes.
The new CAN Core has two bridge channels - one will be utilized for on board DSC2
communication, and the other used for the IDD console. The console channel of the bridge requires
no discussion here and is simply a routing of existing signals.

Page 140 Section 5.0 - Positioning System


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL

Digital and Analog I/O


A second function of the generic CAN Core mentioned above is to provide a method of putting
digital and analog I/O onto the CAN bus. The DSC2 can utilize this functionality to convert many of
the discrete and analog signals passing through on their way to the Positioner cabinet.
Unfortunately, due to safety requirements, the need for a “motion enable” signal, and the inability
to change the Positioner I/O board, all of the discrete signals except for one must be sent back.
However, they can still be put on the CAN bus at the DSC2 to allow for future cabinet elimination
and system consolidation. As seen in Figure 2-77, the following discrete signals will pass through
the DSC2 and on to the Positioner cabinet, but will be input into the CAN core for future use:
• TABLE_TOP_LEFT - Indicates a user request to move the tabletop left.
• TABLE_TOP_RIGHT - Indicates a user request to move the tabletop right.
• IDD_TOP_IN - Indicates a user request to move the tabletop in.
• IDD_TOP_OUT - Indicates a user request to move the tabletop out.
• ANG_VERT - Indicates a user request to angulate the table in the vertical direction.
• ANG_TREND - Indicates a user request to angulate the table in the Trendelenburg direction.
• ANG_EN - Signifies that ANG_VERT or ANG_TREND is set.
• PREP_REC - Indicates that the user has pushed the Prec/Rec switch.
• X-RAY_SW - Indicates that the user has pushed the X-Ray switch.
The following signal is intercepted by the DSC2 and is NOT be sent back to the Positioner cabinet:
IDD_ANG_SW_OFF - Indicates that the angulation switch is off (no motion requested).
The CAN Core has an on-board 10-bit A/D converter with a 0-5VDC conversion range. It’s used to
intercept and convert the following signal ANG_SPD (An analog potentiometer that indicates the
desired table angulation speed. The angulation speed potentiometer is powered by the IDD console
with +/-15VDC.)
• HANDLE_LONG - An analog signal from the power assist handle pre-amp function (see that
section for details on the signal conditioning).
• HANDLE_VERT - An analog signal from the power assist handle pre-amp function (see that
section for details on the signal conditioning).

4.6.4. Power Assist Handle


The power assist handle takes mechanical commands from the operator's hand and translates it
into 2 voltages, one for the vertical direction, and one for the longitudinal direction. Previously, the
handle was powered with +/- 15VDC (0-15VDC on one axis, and -15-0VDC on the other) and the
power assist pre-amp board (46-321188) conditioned the signal to be 0-10VDC with Zener diode
clipping and a potentiometer-adjusted dead band. The signal was then passed back to the
Positioner cabinet, where it was converted to a CAN message by the Positioner I/O board.
In the DSC2, the functionality of this external pre-amp board as well as the CAN message creation
is located on-board. Instead of a +/- 15 VDC power source, the handle will be powered with 0-12
VDC. Some hardware signal conditioning will be necessary to get to the 0-5 VDC level, but the dead
band and clipping will be done by the system software and the CAN Core. In summary, the
requirements are to:
• Provide the power assist handle with 0 VDC and +12 VDC power on each handle axis.
• Condition the return signal to be linear and between 0 VDC and +5VDC. +2.5 VDC will indicate
the 'null', or handle at rest position. The polarity of the signal (which direction corresponds to
< 2.5VDC and which corresponds to > 2.5VDC) will be accounted for by the system software.
• System software does all other functions (dead band and clipping).

DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL

Under Table Collimator


In systems with the previous DSC assembly, the CAN trunk comes to the table base into a CAN
“Tee”. There, 24V comes down from the Image Intensifier (II) power supply, and is injected into the
unused pins in the CAN cable. The under table (u/t) collimator makes use of this power. Since the
trunk needs to get into the IDD for the DSC2, this “Tee” functionality can be moved on board the
DSC2. The DSC2 will have 3 CAN/Collimator related inputs - +24VDC in from the II, CAN trunk in,
and CAN trunk + 24VDC out. The routing on the DSC2 board puts the proper signals and powers
into the proper pins on the CAN bus.

Power Supplies
The DSC2 takes +24VDC and ground from the Positioner cabinet. It has been allocated 3 power
and 3 ground pins for the motors, 1 power and 1 ground for DSC2 logic power, and 3 power and 3
ground pins for the IDD console. Each pin is a 20-gauge sub-D pin and each conductor in the cable
is a 24-gauge conductor capable of carrying 1.5A continuous in the worst case. The motors (more
specifically, the H-Bridge) will take the 24VDC directly, and will only draw 3A peak (each) for a very
short time in the worst case. The PWM will take care of any voltage drops that may occur as a result
of a high current draw. The DSC2 on board components will require +1.5VDC, +3.3VDC,
+5VDC(CAN core) and +12VDC (for the handle).

Diagnostics
The DSC2, like the previous DSC assembly, does not have any stand-alone service diagnostic
routines. It reports errors in normal operating modes as they occur and responds to any system
communications to verify that it is up and running. In addition, it has diagnostics to support the CAN
Core.
The CAN core has access to the DSC2's +24VDC, +12VDC, +3.3VDC, and +1.5VDC power
sources for monitoring purposes. LEDs also show the status of these voltages. The externally
visible LED's are as follows: 12VDC(green), 5VDC(green), 3.3VDC(green), Heartbeat (green),
Normal Mode (green), Safe Mode (Yellow), and 4 Error code bits (Red).
Other LEDs are present on various input signals, but will not necessarily be visible outside of the
DSC2’s enclosure. The CAN core also has its own indicator LEDs for diagnostic purposes. There’s
an on-board RS-232 debug port that supports engineering development, as well as a Mictor-style
connector to support connection to a logic analyzer.

Calibration
The DSC2 is be able to calibrate its motion functions every time it powers up. It moves the grid
inward until it stalls, and zero out the position. This is the “in” position. It will then be moved towards
the home (out) position. The home position will be recorded and compared against an expected
count to verify the grid has a full range of motion. The cone will calibrate itself by moving towards
the direction requested by the user. If it is not parked, it will drive outward at constant speed. If it is
parked, it will assume that it has full range of motion and attempt a normal move inward. When an
inward move has been completed with a full range of motion, the calibration is considered complete,
and all further moves are made normally (not constant speed). For patient safety reasons, the cone
will not move at all until requested by the user.
The software only will calibrate the pre-amp functionality - no hardware calibration will be required.

DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL

Reset
The DSC2 is responsible for generating a reset signal for itself as well as the IDD console. The
console reset comes via a CAN message, and is separate from a DSC2 reset. The DSC2 internal
reset has four conditions that are described in further detail below. A DSC2 reset will also reset the
CAN Core module on board.

POWER-UP RESET
Upon power-up, reset circuitry will ensure the DSC2 is held in reset for a minimum of 100 ms.

CAN RESET MESSAGE


Upon receiving a CAN reset message, the CAN Core will use two digital output lines to latch a reset
signal for either the DSC2, the IDD console, or both for a minimum of 100ms.

INTERNAL SOFTWARE RESET


The DSC2 software will have the ability to trigger a reset by setting an active high reset pin. The
reset generated lasts for a minimum of 100ms.

WATCHDOG RESET
A watchdog circuit, that requires a write every 0.9 seconds, has the ability to generate a reset
condition that must last for a minimum of 100ms.

5.3.11 Bucky
When it is time for the Bucky to be operated, the Mars in the system cabinet sends a CAN message
to the Pos IO board in the positioner cabinet. The Pos IO board sends a signal to the bucky in the
table to start the oscillation. When the bucky is at speed, the bucky sends a signal to the Pos I/O
board in the positioner cabinet. The Pos IO board converts it a CAN message and sends it to the
Mars computer in the system cabinet. Mars computer communicates this message to the rest of the
system.

5.3.12 Cassette Sensing Tray


The cassette sensing tray switches and pots are connected to the Pos IO board in the positioner
cabinet. The Pos IO boards converts these signals to CAN messages and sends it to the Mars
computer. This processes the information and the appropriate actions are taken.

5.3.13 Ion Chamber


The Ion chamber is connected to the Jedi Generator in the system cabinet directly.

messages and they are send to the Mars computer in the system cabinet. The Mars computer
processes it and sends the appropriate CAN messages to the Collimator in the table through the
CAN bus. In addition Mars sends the appropriate messages to the IDD console display through the
CAN bridge to update the graphics on the screen.

6.1 CAN Bus

6.1.1 History
CAN was invented by the Robert Bosch (TM) company in Germany in the mid 1980's, as a solution
to automotive communication needs.

6.1.2 Advantages of CAN Networks


CAN is a serial data communication bus for real time applications.
• Operate in harsh environments
• Easy to Configure
• Automatically Detect Data Transmission Errors
• Cost Effective

Figure 2-81 CAN Bus

Data messages transmitted from any node do not contain addresses of either the transmitting node
or of the receiving node(s).
The content of the message is labeled by an identifier that is unique throughout the network. All the
other nodes on the network receive the message and each performs an acceptance test on the

Page 146 Section 6.0 - System Communications


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
identifier to see if the message is relevant for that node. If the message is relevant it will be
processed, otherwise it is ignored.
The identifier also determines the priority of the message. If two or more nodes compete for access
to the bus at the same time, the highest priority message will gain access and the lower priority
messages are automatically transmitted in the next available bus cycle, if no more higher priority
messages are waiting to be sent.

6.1.4 Overview
As the Precision 500 system has evolved, three versions of CAN bus architectures has evolved.
Two hardware changes drove this:
• OTS assembly changed from Part number 2304223 (Figure 2-82) to 2327101 (Figure 2-83)
• DSC assembly 2391475 added to IDD (Figure 2-84)
Use the block diagram that matches your system configuration in the discussions that follow.
There is one system CAN bus connecting the Positioner Cabinet, Table, System Controller, and
OTS. This is controlled through the System Controller Gitane board’s J14.

There are 2 local subsystem CAN buses, one for the Optics Control Board (OCB) and one for the
Jedi Generator. The OCB bus is controlled through the Digital Gitane board’sJ14. The Jedi bus
controlled through the System Controller Gitane board’s J17.
The System CAN Bus diagnostics checks the system ability to communicate with all the configured
CAN nodes. Individual CAN node test scan be found throughout the Positioner diagnostics.

6.2 RT Bus

6.2.1 Real Time (RT) Bus (System & Local)


The system RT bus is used for safety and very fast transmission of signal from one part of the
system to another part of the system. The electrical signals on these lines are differential RS485
drive. The two end of this bidirectional bus are Venus console and the Positioner IO board. These
end boards have termination resistors across the differential bus lines and biasing resistors to bias
the bus to the logically inactive state when none of the devices are driving the bus. In the RS485
driver sense this is the high state. The devices on this bus only drive the bus to the active state. It
never drives to the inactive state. When a device stops driving, the output of the drivers goes to a
high Z state. It is possible for two devices to drive at the same time to the active state and the
function will be a logical OR function.
There is one system RT bus connecting the Systems Cabinet, Positioner Cabinet, and IUI. The
system RT bus signals are “low” active. See Figure 2-85.
There are two (2) local subsystem RT buses; one for the Optics Control Board (OCB) and one for
the Jedi Generator. The OCB bus is controlled through the Digital Gitane board’s J14. The Jedi bus
is controlled through the System Controller Gitane board’s J17. Jedi bus signals are “high” active.

6.2.2 System RT Bus Signals


The signals which are on this Bus are:

EXPOSE ENABLE
This is driven by the Pos IO board or the Venus console when the expose buttons are pressed. The
s/w has to give permission to the hardware board before this line can be driven. But s/w cannot by
itself drive this line. This signal is received by the Venus console for starting the exposure. This
signal is also used by the Mars Gitane board in the system cabinet to process the Jedi RT bus
signals.

EXPOSE COMMAND
This signal is generated by the Saturn Gitane Board when ever an exposure needs to be made and
these pulses are created in sync with the signal to the camera frame signals. This is received by
the Mars Gitane bd and processed before being sent to Jedi as an RT signal.

X-RAY ON
This signal is created by Jedi generator. It goes to the Mars Gitane Bd through the Jedi RT bus.
This signal is passed to the system RT bus. It is used by the Venus console and the Saturn to
determine when exactly the X-Rays are being turned on.

Page 150 Section 6.0 - System Communications


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
BRIGHTNESS SIGNAL
This is high frequency signal which is generated by the OCB and send to Saturn’s Gitane Bd. This
in turn sends it to Mars’ Gitane Bd. This is then send to the Jedi Generator. The Jedi integrates on
the pulse count and determines when to terminate the exposure.

MOTION ENABLE
This line is driven active when the table motions are enabled. The signal is driven by the Pos IO
board. At this point no other devices uses it. All the motion enables are handled by the Pos IO board.
In the future designs when remote consoles are present this line will be used.

PREP
This is driven by the Pos IO board and the Venus console when the prep button is pressed. This is
used by the Venus console to start the sequence and the Mars Gitane Bd to gate the signals to the
Jedi.

SYSTEM RESET
This is driven by the reset button on the Venus console. This signal goes to Mars Gitane Bd, Saturn
Gitane Bd, Positioner IO board and the PDU IO board. All these are reset when the reset button is
pressed.
The system reset RT line is analog “differential” RT line. Two positions (+/-12V or NC). The active
(i.e. reset enabled position) is +/-12V.

RT SIGNAL CHARACTERISTICS (RS485 SIGNALS)


“+5V Drivers are used and there’s 120 Ohm termination between the “-P” and “-N” leads. Biasing
in the form of 470 Ohm resistors from the “-P” to +5V and the “-N” to 5V_RTN is provided at each
end of the bus. Termination and biasing is selectable via a bus switching device (i.e. 3383).
“Transient Protection is provided for each “-P” and “-N” line. The device clamps the lines to +5V and
5V_RTN.

The Laser Alignment Light is adjusted in the factory and should not need adjustment. If the laser is
received out of alignment, please notify your GE sales or Service representative.

Hardware damage may occur if you attempt to adjust the laser.


Laser Fragile
1.) Adjusting the laser while power is on could result in electrical damage to the power supply
requiring the whole collimator to be replaced.
2.) Use of conductive tools within the collimator may cause the ungrounded laser base to short
the laser power supply.
3.) Tightening of the adjustment screws too much may pierce the laser case and make the laser
not function.

Figure 2-97 Collimator Laser

8.4.4 Collimator Fuses


Fuses used in the collimator help prevent electrical damage. To inspect them:
1.) Open the collimator side panel.
2.) Locate the fuses on the circuit boards.
3.) Measure to detect an open fuse

8.5 OTS Counterpoise Theory of Operation


The x-ray tube vertical motion is counterpoised over a 59 inch (150 cm) range.
The counterpoise assembly uses two torsion springs attached to a tapered cam. A steel
counterpoise cable is attached to the large diameter of the cam and wound in the cam grooves then
over an idler pulley and down through the telescoping columns where the cable fitting is anchored
in the pivot shaft (gooseneck) of the tube support.
The torsion springs are fastened, on the inside coil, to a shaft fitted with a worm wheel that meshes
with a worm. The springs are pre-wound by turning the worm. See Figure 2-99 and Figure 2-100.

The following graph (Figure 2-101) shows the forces involved.

Figure 2-101 COUNTERPOISE FORCE GRAPH

From the curves it can be seen that the torque provided by the two springs is exactly opposite the
torque of the “load” times the radius of the tapered counterpoise cam, so that the net effect is zero
torque and a counterpoised condition. As the load is changed, the cable must be relocated on the
cam to use a different radius so that the new load times the new radius is equal (but opposite) to
the torque output of the two springs.

There are two fittings swagged onto the main cable: one at the cable end, and another located
22.64 (57.51 cm) from the end. Since the system uses a MX 100 tube, the end cable fitting is
anchored in the tube support. The second swagged cable fitting is used when a MX 75 tube is
mounted on the XT hanger.
Since the MX 100 is heavier than the MX 75, there will be more cable on the tapered cam and it will
be using the cam on the smaller radii. The cable location on the cam is determined by the load to
be applied to the counterpoise system. The various components loads as part of the system load,
are as in Table 2-6.

COMPONENT Counterpoise Cable Loads for


SIEMENS COLLIMATOR
TELESCOPING COLUMN 47 LB. (21.3 KG)1
TUBE SUPPORT 27 LB. (12.2 KG)
COLLIMATOR 22 LB. (10.0 KG)

MX 100 TUBE UNIT 65 LB. (29.5 KG)
GRAND TOTAL COUNTERPOISE LOAD 174 LB. (78.9 KG)
1
This is not the weight of the telescoping column assembly, but the sum of the loads
that each of the individual column loads contribute to the counterpoise cable.
Table 2-6 COUNTERPOISE CABLE LOADS

On the face of the cam, there is a series of numbers stamped from 1 through 7. These numbers
indicate the number of the cam groove. See Figure 2-102.
The cam, which starts at the zero turn and extends to the eighth turn, has eight full turns during
which the radius of the groove is changing continuously. See Figure 2-102. After the eighth turn,
the radius remains constant and the cable groove widens out on the outside diameter to form a wide
groove in which excess cable may be stored.

Section 1.0
Before You Begin
The error message listings in this chapter are for systems with Software/Firmware Revision
11.x.x installed only. To determine the version of software installed on your system, open the
service users interface (SUIF) and read the Revision number listed for the IUI. If it’s Revision 11 or
lower, use this book.

Section 2.0
Introduction to Error codes
2.1 What are Error Codes
Applications and System error codes are messages that alert you-and the customer that system
applications or the operating system cannot perform one of their programmed tasks. Applications
and System error codes can appear on the console display at any time, whether you are running
Applications, Diagnostics, or Service Mode software.

Chapter 1 - Precision 500 Error Messages Page 175


GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
The Error management mechanisms in the system handle of all error transmissions on the system.
All errors are stored in a single system error log, which can be viewed via the Service Error Log
Viewer.

2.1.1 Applications Software


As its name implies, Applications software controls customer X-ray applications- such as Digital
RAD, Table Top, and Fluoro.
When the customer selects the fluoro function, Applications software uses the Console (to accept
operator input), the generator module (to control the exposure and to generate X rays), the Imaging
module (to control the camera system), and the Positioner module (to position the patient).
Software controls all aspects of system operation. In this system, these software “actors” are
assigned names. You’ll see those names used in the chapters that follow. Therefore, you might
want to become familiar with them.
In Figure 4-2, you can see were these software actors live inside certain hardware subsystems,
and they’re able to communicate with each other directly or indirectly.

2.1.2 Operating System Software


Operating System software handles:
• high-level system related functions
• initializing system hardware
• managing system resources
• downloading software to modules
• system timing functions
• handling and processing operator input from the console
• processing and displaying system output to the console, etc.

2.2 Applications and System Error Reporting

2.2.1 Error Display Management


Detailed error information is displayed in an easily visible area of the console and the live in-room
monitor.

2.2.2 “Quick” Error Viewer


The console also provides the ability for the operator to access the last errors generated on the
system (maximum of 10). This allows further investigation and viewing of errors occurring in rapid
succession, so that the proper course of action can be taken.

Figure 4-4 Quick Error Viewer

2.3 Service Error Log Viewer


The console provides the ability for the service person to access the complete set (2000 maximum
entries) of system errors generated over time. The error log gives you a complete time line of all
errors that have occurred. Used together with the error message listing in Section 3.0 (System Error
Message Listing on page 178) of this chapter, the service person has needed information for more
efficient and effective troubleshooting.

Section 3.0
System Error Message Listing
In this section you'll find the system’s error code's listed in hexadecimal order by SW Module
(Process) Actor.
Sometimes the customer may easily correct an Applications software error condition, such as when
the error is caused by an unsatisfied interlock. At other times, however, the Applications software
error message only advises the customer to call service.
Whichever action you pursue, always bear in mind which module generated the error, which type
of software generated the error, and what the system was trying to do when the error occurred.
Each Error Code listed below, shows its message(s): the module that generated the error, the error
Description and the Recommended Action(s) to correct the error.
Major Function Impacted
This is the name of the actor that reported the error
Minor Function Impacted
This indicates the actor-specific function that was in progress when the error was reported. Each
actor will define a set of legal values for this field. Each error reported by the actor will be associated
with a unique minor function.
Error Recovery Classes
System error management supports various recovery classes of errors:
• Debug-only – these errors are logged in the system error log, but are not displayed
• Advisory – logging of this class of error is optional
• Warning – non-fatal failure
• Abort – causes termination of current x-ray acquisition
• Inhibit – causes termination of current x-ray and subsequently inhibits further acquisition
attempts until the error situation is cleared
• Halt – when failure is so severe that the system is no longer functional. The only operator
action allowed is a Reset or Shutdown.
• Action(s) - This field gives the recommended action.

Recovery Class: ABORT
Major Function Impacted: Pos
Minor Function Impacted: control
View Level: opr
Root Cause: 0
Recommended Action(s): 1. Reset the system and then retry the exposure.
2. Make sure that no positioner IO board errors are displayed along with this error (e.g.: Node
Guarding errors). If these errors are displayed then the problem could be at the Positioner
cabinet end and not with the bucky itself. (Refer to the error comments for these errors for
recommended actions)
3. If there are no positioner IO board errors displayed and the problem still persists after reset,
then this could be due to hardware failure at the bucky end. Check for jammed bucky (make
sure that the grid can move freely). Check for proper electrical connections and power supply.
4. If all the above does not resolve the issue, replace the bucky
Description: During an expose sequence, the system vibrates the bucky and makes sure that the required
vibration frequency (bucky speed) has been reached before the system actually takes an
exposure. However due to some reasons if the required vibration frequency is not reached in
the provided time interval, the system cannot expose and this error is reported
Customer Text: Bucky is not ready. Retry exposure or reset the system if problem persists.

Error Message Listings (SW Version 13.x.x or higher)

Section 1.0
Before You Begin
The error message listings in this chapter are for systems with Software/Firmware Revision
13.x.x or Software/Firmware Revision 14.x.x installed only. To determine the version of
software installed on your system, open the service installed only. To determine the version of
software installed on your system, open the service users interface (SUIF) and read the revision
number listed for the IUI. If it’s revision 13 or higher, use the error messages found here.

Section 2.0
Introduction to Error codes
2.1 What are Error Codes
Applications and System error codes are messages that alert you-and the customer that system
applications or the operating system cannot perform one of their programmed tasks. Applications
and System error codes can appear on the console display at any time, whether you are running
Applications, Diagnostics, or Service Mode software.
The Error management mechanisms in the system handle of all error transmissions on the system.
All errors are stored in a single system error log, which can be viewed via the Service Error Log
Viewer.

2.1.1 Applications Software


As its name implies, Applications software controls customer X-ray applications- such as Digital
RAD, Table Top, and Fluoro.
When the customer selects the fluoro function, Applications software uses the Console (to accept
operator input), the generator module (to control the exposure and to generate X rays), the Imaging
module (to control the camera system), and the Positioner module (to position the patient).
Software controls all aspects of system operation. In this system, these software “actors” are
assigned names. You’ll see those names used in the chapters that follow. Therefore, you might
want to become familiar with them.
In Figure 5-1, you can see were these software actors live inside certain hardware subsystems,
and they’re able to communicate with each other directly or indirectly.

2.1.2 Operating System Software


Operating System software handles:
• high-level system related functions
• initializing system hardware
• managing system resources
• downloading software to modules
• system timing functions
• handling and processing operator input from the console
• processing and displaying system output to the console, etc.

2.2 Applications and System Error Reporting

2.2.1 Error Display Management


Detailed error information is displayed in an easily visible area of the console and the live in-room
monitor.

2.2.2 “Quick” Error Viewer
The console also provides the ability for the operator to access the last errors generated on the
system (maximum of 10). This allows further investigation and viewing of errors occurring in rapid
succession, so that the proper course of action can be taken.

Figure 5-3 Quick Error Viewer

2.3 Service Error Log Viewer


The console provides the ability for the service person to access the complete set (2000 maximum
entries) of system errors generated over time. The error log gives you a complete time line of all
errors that have occurred. Used together with the error message listing in Section 3.0 (System Error
Message Listing on page 178) of this chapter, the service person has needed information for more
efficient and effective troubleshooting.

Section 3.0
System Error Message Listing
In this section you'll find the system’s error code's listed in hexadecimal order by SW Module
(Process) Actor.
Sometimes the customer may easily correct an Applications software error condition, such as when
the error is caused by an unsatisfied interlock. At other times, however, the Applications software
error message only advises the customer to call service.
Whichever action you pursue, always bear in mind which module generated the error, which type
of software generated the error, and what the system was trying to do when the error occurred.
Each Error Code listed below, shows its message(s): the module that generated the error, the error
Description and the Recommended Action(s) to correct the error.
Major Function Impacted
This is the name of the actor that reported the error
Minor Function Impacted
This indicates the actor-specific function that was in progress when the error was reported. Each
actor will define a set of legal values for this field. Each error reported by the actor will be associated
with a unique minor function.
Error Recovery Classes
System error management supports various recovery classes of errors:

GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS
DIRECTION 2360588-100, REVISION 10 PRECISION 500D ®, R&F SYSTEM MANUAL
• Debug-only – these errors are logged in the system error log, but are not displayed
• Advisory – logging of this class of error is optional
• Warning – non-fatal failure
• Abort – causes termination of current x-ray acquisition
• Inhibit – causes termination of current x-ray and subsequently inhibits further acquisition
attempts until the error situation is cleared
• Halt – when failure is so severe that the system is no longer functional. The only operator
action allowed is a Reset or Shutdown.
• Action(s) - This field gives the recommended action.
