Set Up the Mammography Features

Set Up the Mammography Features


If the imager will print mammography images, there are some setup items to complete.
Refer to the Site-Readiness Checklist or talk to the customer to learn their preferences.
The Mammography Quality Control Manual provides information and procedures to
help the customer maintain the required level of quality. The requirements vary by
region. Make sure the customer is aware of the Mammography Quality Control Manual.

About Mammography Test Prints


The default mammography test pattern is a QC step test wedge print. This print is
generated when mammography film is loaded and the user presses the Calibration
symbol for three seconds.
The QC step wedge test print provides density feedback at the conclusion of the test print
cycle, letting you track and record density variations on mammography film. Four
nominal output densities have been selected for control charting purposes:
• Step 1—Low density, not less than 0.45
• Step 2—High density, approximately 2.20
• Step 3—Minimum density (DMin) (Base + Fog)
• Step 4—Mid density, not less than 1.20
The density values for the test print are recorded in the Web Portal, and you can manually
record them on the film for charting purposes.
See the Mammography Quality Control Manual for more information.

PM Intervals

Important
To consistently produce high quality images and prevent future failures, the imager must receive
periodic routine maintenance. Without regular and complete preventive maintenance, the imager
might experience 26-543 errors and/or image artifacts on the prints. Perform the PM procedures:
• Every Emergency Maintenance (EM) call
• Every 20,000 cycles or every 12 months (whichever comes first), the display screen displays a
message prompting the user to schedule preventive maintenance. The procedures should be
performed as soon as possible after the message appears.
• A charcoal filter change is required every 7500 prints and can be changed by the customer if
the PM interval has not been reached. If the FE is required to change the filter, the FE must
do a complete PM at 7500 prints.

Modifications During Preventive Maintenance

Important
Check the modification status of the imager at each PM call. If any Type 1 modifications (required
or selective) are outstanding, install them during the call. It is important to fit modifications
promptly at scheduled maintenance times to improve and maintain imager performance to
corporate and customer expectations.

Measure the Air Flow with an Air Flow Meter


This procedure describes how to use the KESTREL 1000 Air Flow Meter to check air flow.
The air flow meter lets you check the left panel air flow without removing the 17 screws
that mount the metal plate to the left panel; this is the preferred method (vacuuming)
for cleaning the left panel. If an air flow meter is not available, you can also use the
alternate method for checking air flow, where you remove the metal plate and brush the
left cover slots.

Prerequisites:
Remove the Top Cover
Remove the Left Cover
Raise the processor heat sink.

Reinstall the left panel.


Defeat the top cover interlock.

Important
This air flow meter should be used to check how effectively a Preventive Maintenance was
performed. Do the tool readings prior to and then after performing a PM—in this way, you can
confirm that the PM was done correctly by confirming the air flow readings.
Use of the air flow meter is NOT intended to determine if a PM needs to be done. PMs must be
scheduled and performed per the required print counts or date being reached as established by
the site, based on factors such as environmental operating conditions. The PM must be performed
per all the procedures stated in the Service Manual.
Specifications
Set the air flow meter to m/s.

Tools
Tube – PVC, 1.25 in. diameter thin wall, 5 in. long
1. Locate the drum top exhaust port on the left panel.

2. Place one end of the tube on the gasket material over the hole.

3. Place the flow meter impeller on the other end of the tube.

Note
The filter fan is always running.
4. Connect your laptop to the imager and log on to WebLink.
5. Go to Diagnostics > MCS > Motors Diagnostics.

3–20 AA2206_en | 2017-12-12


Preventive Maintenance

6. For Select Operation, select Fans, and then click Run.

Note
You may need to click Run again if the fan stops running.
7. Record the reading.
» If the reading is 1.5 or above, the air flow is acceptable.
» If the reading is below 1.5, continue with the next step.
8. Remove the tube and flow meter.
9. Remove the left panel and defeat the interlock.
10. Place the meter over the filter exhaust port on the imager so it covers most of the
plenum.

Note
Block the hole on the meter with a thumb or tape to get more accurate readings.

» If the reading is 1.8 or above, the filter and fan are acceptable, but the left panel
is clogged or the gaskets are not sealing the left panel.
» If the reading is below 1.8, the filter is not seated properly, or the filter needs to
be replaced, or the fan is not operating. Resolve the fan or filter issue, then return
to step 1 to recheck the left panel.

Postrequisites:
Return to the PM procedure and continue.

Display Screen Symbols—Detailed Descriptions


Symbol Description

Film Count and Dimensions


• Displays the number of films remaining in the film cartridge.
• When 0 displays, replace the empty cartridge.

Indicator Light
• When steady green, the light indicates the active film cartridge.
• When amber, there is an issue with the indicated film supply, such as a jammed
film. Check the error code.

Power
• When steady green, the imager is ready to print.
• When flashing green, the imager is processing or printing.
• When steady amber, attention is needed.
Refer to other symbol descriptions for details.
• When blinking amber, the imager is warming up.
The screen also displays the time-until-ready count.

Error or Status Code


• A 3-digit code displays when an error or status condition is present.
If the imager is on and a 3-digit code does not display, the imager is operating
normally.
• A 2-digit code displays the requested film size if the loaded film size does not match
the requested size.
The code alternates between the height and width of the requested size.
• If a print job requires a different film size or type than either of the loaded sizes, then
requested film size and type displays along with the Film Size symbol. For mammog-
raphy film, an M displays in front of the film size; B indicates the blue base film, and
C indicates clear base film.

Film Size
• If on, the print job requires a different film size than the currently loaded film. Load
the requested film size to continue printing.
• You can also press and hold the symbol for three seconds to cancel all pending print
requests.

AA2206_en | 2017-12-12 5–3

Symbol Description

Calibrate and Test Print


• When steady blue, press this symbol to initiate calibration of the upper or lower
cartridge.
• When blinking blue, calibration is in process.
• When amber, there was an issue with the calibration. Press the Calibrate symbol to
manually calibrate. You can continue printing or load a different film cartridge.
• To make a test print, press and hold the Calibrate symbol for three seconds/until the
imager beeps twice. The test print varies depending on the type of film.

If the symbol is on, the film cartridge cover is open (for example, while processing
images). To avoid exposing the film to light, do not open the film supply until the sym-
bol is off. If you cannot wait until the imager has finished processing images, press the
symbol to close the film cartridge.

Restart
You must restart the imager. An error code also displays to indicate why the restart is
required.

Film Jam
Film is jammed. An error code also displays to indicate the location of the jam.

Maintenance
Preventive maintenance is required. An error code also displays to indicate the required
action.
• 449—Replace the filter.
• 550—Perform a preventive maintenance call.

DICOM Status Messages


In response to a DICOM printer N-GET status request, a printer status message and printer
status info message are returned to the requesting Service Class User (SCU).
Every error has an associated printer status info message.
• If no errors occur when a PRINTER N-GET request is received, a printer status info
message of “NORMAL” is returned.
• If only one error occurs, a printer status info message that corresponds to the error is
returned.
• If more than one error occurs when a PRINTER N-GET request is received, a status
message is selected by the following priority:
a. Errors returned in the same order generated
b. Non-normal printer status
c. Empty film

Condition (Error) Codes

Error Code Subsystems


Each subsystem of the imager has a range of error numbers. The numbers have two parts,
a subsystem ID number and an error ID number. This number system keeps the error ID
numbers given to software components in other imagers for similar errors. The subsystem
ID and error number are separated by a hyphen only on the Web Portal and not on the
display screen or in the error log. For example, the Web Portal displays 20-209 while the
error log displays 20209.

Film Jam in Area 1x Film Supply: Film Pickup Failure. FILM TRANS ERR 1-Alert
Film did not lift successfully as
indicated by SOP sensor (S7).

Description This error occurs if after 3 attempts, the imager cannot pick up a sheet of
film as indicated by the exposure transport start-of-page sensor (S7). The
film probably fell back down onto the cartridge. The error is cleared when
a film cartridge is removed and then re-inserted. The failure can be caused

6. Reseat the pickup assembly connectors.
7. Check the exposure transport sensor and replace if needed.
8. Replace the pickup assembly.
See the Adjustments and Replacements for replacement procedures as needed.
Known Issues that Cause Film Pickup Failures
Worm gear: Some pickup assembly worm gears are too short, allowing too much play in the
pickup height. The resulting gap between the worm gear and E-ring lets the gear slide along
the motor shaft and affect the pickup height accuracy.

How to measure: This information was presented in 5700 Service Bulletin


SB6M2037, located on the Service Portal.

Solution: Replace worm gear (SP9G4074). See Adjustments and Replace-


ments.

AA2206_en | 2017-12-12 5–63


Diagnostics

Suction cups: Typically, suction cups will not cause 2X-116 errors. But if a suction cup is not
made correctly, it may be part of what is causing the film not to be picked up properly.

How to check: Visually examine the suction cups with a magnifying glass. Look
at the rim of the suction cups for notches or extruding material.

Solution: Replace the faulty suction cup (SP5F2826). See Adjustments and
Replacements.

Finger tubing (wave generator): The finger tubing is the hose material located between the
suction cups. Its purpose is to separate sheets of film by creating a wave effect on the film. If
the finger tubing is too stiff, it will not allow the suction cups to compress and make a good
seal on the film. This will especially occur if the suction cup also has a flaw.

How to check: Try to compress the finger tubing. Removal of the two finger tub-
ing units can be used as a troubleshooting technique, but the fin-
ger tubing needs to be installed on film pickups. Also, if removing
the finger tubing allows the film to be picked up, the suction cups
could still be part of the problem.

Solution: Replace the finger tubing (SP2G0913). See Adjustments and


Replacements.

Tubing: Any kinks or binds in the vacuum hoses will cause less vacuum or restrict the move-
ment of the film pickup assembly.

How to check: With the film pickup out of the machine, hold a piece of film
under the suction cups and select the appropriate film tray to
apply vacuum to the film pickup. If no or little vacuum, look for
any binding of the vacuum tubing.

Solution: Rerun the tubing or replace it. See Adjustments and Replace-
ments.

5–64 AA2206_en | 2017-12-12


Diagnostics

Vacuum pump: Debris in the diaphragm of the vacuum pump will cause the vacuum to leak
out and not provide a good suction to the film.

How to check: With the film pickup out of the machine, hold a piece of film
under the suction cups and select the appropriate film tray to
apply vacuum to the film pickup. If no or little vacuum, disassem-
ble the vacuum pump and look for any debris on the diaphragm –
remove it and recheck.

Solution: 1. Remove the vacuum pump.


2. Remove the 4 screws holding the black hose manifold to the
pump assembly.

Note
Position the pump with the 4 screws up to prevent loss of the small
plastic valves.
3. Carefully separate the pieces. Inspect the area for small pieces
of debris. Remove any debris.

4. Lift off the 2 valves. Inspect this area for small pieces of debris.
Remove any debris.

5. Re-install the components, and check if the problem is


resolved. If not, replace the vacuum pump (SP9J1034).

AA2206_en | 2017-12-12 5–65


Diagnostics

Film cartridge handling: Issues only occur after a cartridge is opened (when the vacuum is
removed). Once the vacuum is removed, the lid’s ability to keep the film from moving around
in the cartridge and sliding under the lid into the adhesive is greatly reduced. Also, improper
handling and storing of the film cartridge can cause the sheets of film to move within the car-
tridge.

How to check: In the event of an EC116 where a film is found in the adhesive,
you can determine if film handling is the cause by the timing of
the error. The error will occur with the first or second sheet of a
new cartridge, or in the first few sheets of a previously used car-
tridge.

Solution: Remove the jammed film.


Ensure that the customer knows how to store and transport the
film cartridges. Film should be carried and stored flat and face up
(with the label on top).

Description There are three primary causes for this error:


1. The processor-measured temperature has not locked into ±0.15 °C of
the set point for at least 20 seconds before the end of the warm-up

Either the solid-state relay (SSR) or mechanical power relay has failed.
(Resolution: Replace the board.)

Description This error occurs when the display screen does not receive communications
from the Machine Control System (MCS). The display screen waits for 50
seconds, and then attempts to invoke communications from the MCS.
After an additional 10 seconds, if the display screen has not received MCS
communications, this error displays on the display screen.
The error clears when the display screen detects MCS communications.

Note
Code 36-935 is a general error that might be caused by several different
factors and the description of the error might be misleading. This error is
rarely associated with the control panel (local panel) and when the error
occurs, all communication to the imager sub-systems stops.

System Impact Unknown. If the system is down, the imager is not able to print films. If the
problem is limited to communications, the imager may still be able to print

Error History Review


The logs that are available through the service tool can help you troubleshoot system
errors. By using a combination of logs, searches, and filters, you can see the sequence of
events that led up to the error along with the detailed information.
The following is an example of an error troubleshooting sequence:
1. Connect your laptop to the imager and use Secure Link client software to access the
service tool.
2. View the Error History log (or search the saved Error History log) to find when an
error last occurred or how many times it occurred.
3. Access the Application log or the NT Event log and set a date range for the error that
you are troubleshooting.
4. Set the basic filter to show only error events.
5. Set the advanced filter to show only errors that contain a particular text string.

Application Log
The Application log is the most comprehensive system log. The NT Event logs, DICOM log,
and Print Delivery log are all filtered variations of the Application log. The Application
log is the preferred log to begin filtering information from because it contains the most
data per record.

Contents of the Log


Each line of the log documents an event. Each event has 18 columns of information. Only
five of the columns, listed below, are useful for diagnostics by field service personnel. The
other data is for use by Software Engineering.
Column Title Function

Event Type Provides the same information in the Level column—the level pro-
vided for the event. The levels from highest to lowest are: Trace
(Level 6), Debug (5), Diag (4), Info (3), Warning (2), Error (1), and
Fatal Error (0).

Time Provides the time of the event, down to 1/100th of a second. The
time is used to locate events in the log.

Code The code for an event, normally an error code

Text Describes the event

App The software application in which the event occurred

Diagnostics

Log Filtering
Filtering narrows the amount of data that displays in a log.
Filtering decreases the amount of log data according to criteria that you select. An
example of when you might need to filter a log would be if modalities are unable to
select the imager because the current number of SCP associations has reached the limit
(12). Use filtering to search for key words and numbers in the log to locate the
information to solve the problem.

How to Filter Logs


1. Access the application log and use the Log Retrieval window to select the time
within which the imager problem occurred.
2. Click OK to capture the log data.
3. Click Display Filter.
4. Under the Basic tab, select:
• Enable Basic Filter
• Text Contains

5. In the Text Contains box, type the words and numbers that you want to search on. In
this example, scp assoc was entered so that it appears in the events in the log you
want to view.
6. Click OK to search the log for the specified text.
The search retrieves only log items that include the words “scp assoc.” If the log
includes too many records, decrease the data by applying additional filtering.
7. Click Display Filter.

AA2206_en | 2017-12-12 5–141


Diagnostics

8. Click the Advanced tab.

9. Select Enable Advanced Filter.


This adds the filter criteria to the original search words “scp assoc”.
a. Select Time in the Field drop-down list (scroll the list).
b. Select Text in the As drop-down list.
c. Narrow the time period by selecting the appropriate parameter in the next
drop-down list, and then type the date and time in the box. Use
yyyy/mm/dd[space][space]hh:mm format, with hours in 24-hour time.
10. Click OK to retrieve all the “scp association” events during the time selected.
11. Open the Advanced filter again and add criteria to show only the events where the
Text field contained “down.”

The log is filtered to show SCP associations that went down during the specified time
period.
