SECTION 1 - GENERAL

BEFORE USING THIS MANUAL


This CT system is especially dangerous because its heavy gantry continuously rotates at a high speed with high
power electric current (380 ∼ 480 VAC) conducted through its slip rings.
The hazards, although sometimes obvious, need to be recognized since the potential for serious injury or death
exists.

WARNING
DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY!!
READ AND THOROUGHLY UNDERSTAND THE ‘PROSPEED SERIES SAFETY GUIDELINES/
EMC’ MANUAL (2327333) BEFORE PERFORMING ANY PROCEDURE IN THIS ‘FUNCTIONAL
CHECK/ADJUSTMENT.’

Use of This Manual


Use this ‘Functional Check/Adjustment’ for the following purposes:
• A during- and post-installation check to ensure that the entire system operates properly.
• As a reference source for Periodic Maintenance which mainly contains abbreviated lists.
• A post-FMI (Field Modification Instruction) check to verify system operation.
• A pre-diagnostic check to verify or determine failure symptoms before or during troubleshooting.
• A post-diagnostic check to verify system operation after repairs, before returning it to the customer to
use.

1-3 TEMPERATURE
During the installation and start-up of the system you must take continuous temperature checks to make sure the
environment meets specifications listed in Section 3 of the Preinstallation manual. Excessive temperature, coupled
with reduced air flow from clogged filters, may overstress components and cause failures.

Filters
Check and clean all electronic equipment dust filters. GE recommends initially doing this on a weekly basis,
because new installations always have dust and dirt present at this stage. Over a period of time, you may increase
the maintenance interval as site environment improves.

Specifications
During installation, use the temperature/humidity recorder and a thermometer to record the temperature and relative
humidity in the scan room. Make sure the data you collect meets the following temperature and humidity
specifications.
• Scan Room
- -Temperature: 20° C ∼ 28° C (at least 5° C/hr gradient)
- -Relative Humidity: 30 ∼ 70 % RH (Non Condensing)
• Operator’s Room and/or Equipment Room
- -Temperature: 15° C ∼ 30° C (at least 5° C/hr gradient)
- -Relative Humidity: 20 ∼ 80 % RH (Non Condensing)

Action
Contact the air conditioning supplier or your local GE service department when your data fails to meet any
specifications.

Input Selection
Verify that an input selection on the Power Distribution Unit (See Illustrations 1-4 or 1-5) meets the input power
voltage. If not, correct them.
The ‘input power voltage’ here means the rating voltage specified on the power distribution box (hospital supply),
not the measured voltage on the power distribution box.

1-4 POWER LINE VOLTAGE (CONTINUED)


The following assumes that the power source for the system was checked for mean voltage, as well as any line
voltage disturbance during preinstallation site checks.
Instrument
Use the same instrument (Dranetz, etc.) to monitor line voltage during this check that you used during the
preinstallation check. The recommended line analyzer is the Dranetz Model 606-3 (3 channel) with the 101
frequency option, or Dranetz Model line monitor plug in modules. You can use a similar analyzer, as long as it can
monitor and report mean voltage, surges, sags, short term impulses, and frequency drift.
Check Using an Instrument
Monitor the input power lines (200 VAC, 380 VAC, 400 VAC, 415 VAC, 440 VAC, 460 VAC, or 480 VAC) to the
PDU at the Power Distribution Box (on terminals L1, L2, and L3) (hospital supply). Check in particular:
• Verify that the current line voltage equals the voltage measured during the preinstallation check.
• Verify that mean line voltage does not fall outside of equipment specifications during the day to day
operation of other site equipment during the installation period.
• Look for any line voltage disturbances and check for a correlation between disturbances and system
malfunctions such as “Aborts” or component failures.
From the printouts, ensure that the power supply meets the following criteria:
• Line Voltage : 200 VAC, 380 VAC, 400 VAC, 415 VAC, 440 VAC, 460 VAC or 480 VAC
(50 Hz/60 Hz) (Normal Steady State)
• Daily Voltage Variation : +10% to -5% from nominal steady state (50 Hz)
+6% to -5% from nominal steady state (60 Hz)
• Frequency : 50 Hz ± 2 Hz, 60 Hz ± 2 Hz.

Check Using an Oscilloscope


Monitor the power lines with an oscilloscope and verify that no significant distortion, noise or transients exist. Switch
between the oscilloscope’s long and short time base to monitor for spikes, as well as line drift over time. Generally,
harmonics of the third, seventh, and eleventh derivative will be the most prevalent.

Action
Investigate any condition that falls out of spec. Identify the problem source(s) and resolve the problem.

Note
Filmer DICOM AE (Application Entity) Title may be site specific. Make sure that you check with the
Filming Device Service Representative and the hospital network administrator to ensure you are
using the correct AE Title for the destination Filming Device.
• Medium Type:
Select the appropriate Medium Type parameter. Check with the radiology department and the
Filming Device Service Representative to determine whether the department is using BLUE
FILM, CLEAR FILM, or PAPER.
• Film Orientation:
Select PORTRAIT or LANDSCAPE. If you change this parameter, you might also change the Film
Format. Consult the manufacturer of a DICOM printer for proper Film Format settings.
• Destination:
Select the appropriate Destination parameter. Check with the radiology department and the Filming
Device Service Representative to determine whether to use MAGAZINE or PROCESSOR.
• Magnification Type:
Select the appropriate Magnification Type parameter. This parameter selects the algorithm used to
interpolate pixels to provide desired film resolution. Check with the Filming Device Service
Representative to ensure the best Image Quality film presentation. For most Filming Device
manufacturers, the preferred selection is CUBIC.

Magnification Type Selection Descriptions:


-NONE: No interpolation. This selection is available for camera types that do not support Magnification
Type algorithms.
- REPLICATE: Adjacent pixels are interpolated which results in images described as ìpixellyî. This
algorithm is not usually preferred.
-BILINEAR: A first order interpolation of pixels is used which results in images described as blurred. This
algorithm is not usually preferred.
-CUBIC: A third order interpolation is used with a large number of possible formulations. Filming Device
manufacturers define parameters called smoothing type to set coefficients used in the algorithm. The
implementation of these coefficients is Filming Device manufacturer dependent.
• Film Format:
Use the default values. However, if you change Film Orientation, you might also change the Film Format.
Consult the manufacturer of a DICOM printer for proper Film Format settings.

2-18-2 DICOM Print Troubleshooting Tips


The following is a summary of troubleshooting information for DICOM Print that was gathered during software testing
and validation of the DICOM Print feature.

ERROR BRINGING UP THE CAMERA INSTALLATION/FILMING APPLICATION


• Symptom: After creating/modifying the DICOM Print Camera the install camera interface does not come
up and the filming application indicates it cannot bring up the film composer.
Cause: The configuration field contains invalid information such as a backslash (\) as the final character
in the field or brackets ({}).
• Solution: The camera.dev file in ‘~ctuser/app-defaults/devices’ must be manually edited to remove the
offending characters in the set configuration line. Invalid characters include \{}

CONFIGURATION INFORMATION FIELD


• Symptom: Cannot view the entire configuration field (> 25 characters)
• Solution: Hold down the middle mouse button and move the field contents

NEED TO SET DICOM PRINT ATTRIBUTES NOT SUPPORTED BY SOFTWARE


• Symptom: User wants the white border around each image box ON/OFF permanently for this system
and it cannot be set as the default for the camera.
• Solution: Using your favorite editor, add the following line to the camera.dev file located in ‘~ctuser/app-
defaults/devices’ after the DICOM Print device has been otherwise configured.
For Trim Off - set TRIM NO
For Trim On - set TRIM YES
• Symptom: DICOM Print Camera supports multiple film sizes and the User only wants to print if the Film
Size is correct for [14x17]. [Otherwise the camera will queue the films or return an error causing the
queue to pause (based upon the DICOM Print Camera specifications).]
• Solution: Using your favorite editor, add the following line to the camera.dev file located in ‘~ctuser/app-
defaults/devices’ after the DICOM Print device has been otherwise configured.
To force a 14x17 film size - set filmSize 14INX17IN
a. Click on Service icon to display the Service Menu desktop, then select Application Shutdown ->
OK.
b. Click on Shell.

c. Type as follows:

> cd /usr/g/ctuser/app-defaults/devices <Enter>


> ls *.dev <Enter>
camera.dev(This is the file for a laser imager.)
di3.dev(Example; This is the file for DICOM printer.)
xxx.dev(Example; another DICOM printer)
> nedit di3.dev <Enter> (Example; the current DICOM printer is ‘di3.dev’.)
d. Add the following line to the dev file for the current DICOM printer.
#first the obligatory fields

set dName îdi3î


set dPort 104
set dComment îî
set dType digital
set dColour greyscale
set dQueueType DICM
set dQueueName dicom
set dAppTitle îdi3î
set dIPAddress X.XX.XXX.XXX
set dHostName di3
set filmSize 14INX17IN (Add this line here!)

#then the optional fields

e. Select File -> Save.

f. Type exit <Enter> to terminate the shell window.

NEED TO PREVENT DICOM PRINT ATTRIBUTES FROM BEING SENT TO DICOM PRINT CAMERA
• Symptom: Some DICOM Print attributes are optional, and may result in fatal errors. For example, the
Fuji camera does not support the Empty Image Density parameter for the film box.
• Solution: Using your favorite editor, add the following line(s) to the camera.dev file located in ‘~ctuser/
app-defaults/devices‘ after the DICOM Print device has been otherwise configured.
- To prevent sending the Smoothing Parameter set FB_Smooth FALSE
- To prevent sending the Border Density set FB_Border FALSE
- To prevent sending the Empty Image Density set FB_EID FALSE
- To prevent sending the Minimum Density set FB_MinD FALSE
- To prevent sending the Trim Parameter set FB_Trim FALSE

GE HEALTHCARE FUNCTIONAL CHECK / ADJUSTMENT
REV 18 2326039

2-18-2 DICOM Print Troubleshooting Tips (Continued)

ERROR TRYING TO CONNECT TO THE DICOM PRINT CAMERA


• Symptom: DICOM Print server can be reached (ping), but Application error indicates ‘Unable to start
filming interface‘ and the help message talks about running the install.dasm (Association Error)
• Solution: The system is unable to complete the association. Check the AE Title and the Port number of
the DICOM Print Server and correct them using reconfiguration, CT Camera setting screen.

FILM COMPOSER ERROR NOT USABLE


• Symptom: Film Composer error says ‘unrecognized status - code 0‘
• Solution: Review the log file, the attention and status windows. These areas have the correct filming
status (e.g. film jam, supply empty)

DEBUGGING CONNECTION ISSUES DIFFICULT


• Symptom: The timeouts for the DICOM Print are very long, which means one needs to wait a long time
before you know the application is not working.
• Solution: The timeouts for the DICOM Print were setup to ensure that the system would work regardless
of whether the DICOM Print Camera was on a LAN or a WAN halfway around the world. The DICOM
Print timeouts for the association and DIMSE classes (e.g. N-GET, N-DELETE) can be modified within
the DICOM Print camera installation. They can be reduced down to 90 seconds.

DICOM PRINT ERROR ON N-GET TIMEOUT CONFUSING


• Symptom: When the N-GET timeout goes off, the error message in the prslog file will be ‘Could not get
printer status, invalid command sequence for N-GET‘.
• Solution: When the User sees the above error they may want to consider that the issue may be an
inactivity timer on the N-GET DIMSE Service.

DICOM PRINT CAMERA SLIDE SUPPORT


• Symptom: Current implementation of DICOM Print does not allow selection of slide format.
• Solution: Feature not currently supported. Possibly in future releases.

CONFUSION ON FILM FORMAT NOTATION


• Symptom: GEMS Laser Camera and DICOM Print film format notations are opposite.
• Solution: GEMS Laser Camera film format notation has always been
- row x col (e.g. 12 on 1 = 4x3)
- DICOM Print Standard film format notation is
- col x row (e.g. 12 on 1 = 3x4)

NOTICE
When, at the DICOM Print Camera side, you enter the AE title of a CT system connected to

the printer, CT Host Name _DCP must be used.


Note
Filmer DICOM AE (Application Entity) Title may be site specific. Make sure that you check with the
Filming Device Service Representative and the hospital network administrator to ensure you are
using the correct AE Title for the destination Filming Device.
• Medium Type:
Select the appropriate Medium Type parameter. Check with the radiology department and the
Filming Device Service Representative to determine whether the department is using BLUE
FILM, CLEAR FILM, or PAPER.
• Film Orientation:
Select PORTRAIT or LANDSCAPE. If you change this parameter, you might also change the Film
Format. Consult the manufacturer of a DICOM printer for proper Film Format settings.
• Destination:
Select the appropriate Destination parameter. Check with the radiology department and the Filming
Device Service Representative to determine whether to use MAGAZINE or PROCESSOR.
• Magnification Type:
Select the appropriate Magnification Type parameter. This parameter selects the algorithm used to
interpolate pixels to provide desired film resolution. Check with the Filming Device Service
Representative to ensure the best Image Quality film presentation. For most Filming Device
manufacturers, the preferred selection is CUBIC.

Magnification Type Selection Descriptions:


-NONE: No interpolation. This selection is available for camera types that do not support Magnification
Type algorithms.
- REPLICATE: Adjacent pixels are interpolated which results in images described as ìpixellyî. This
algorithm is not usually preferred.
-BILINEAR: A first order interpolation of pixels is used which results in images described as blurred. This
algorithm is not usually preferred.
-CUBIC: A third order interpolation is used with a large number of possible formulations. Filming Device
manufacturers define parameters called smoothing type to set coefficients used in the algorithm. The
implementation of these coefficients is Filming Device manufacturer dependent.
• Film Format:
Use the default values. However, if you change Film Orientation, you might also change the Film Format.
Consult the manufacturer of a DICOM printer for proper Film Format settings.

3-18 DICOM PRINT TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS


The following is a summary of troubleshooting information for DICOM Print that was gathered during software testing
and validation of the DICOM Print feature.

ERROR BRINGING UP THE CAMERA INSTALLATION/FILMING APPLICATION


• Symptom: After creating/modifying the DICOM Print Camera the install camera interface does not come
up and the filming application indicates it cannot bring up the film composer.
Cause: The configuration field contains invalid information such as a backslash (\) as the final character
in the field or brackets ({}).
• Solution: The camera.dev file in ‘~ctuser/app-defaults/devices’ must be manually edited to remove the
offending characters in the set configuration line. Invalid characters include \{}

CONFIGURATION INFORMATION FIELD


• Symptom: Cannot view the entire configuration field (> 25 characters)
• Solution: Hold down the middle mouse button and move the field contents

NEED TO SET DICOM PRINT ATTRIBUTES NOT SUPPORTED BY SOFTWARE


• Symptom: User wants the white border around each image box ON/OFF permanently for this system
and it cannot be set as the default for the camera.
• Solution: Using your favorite editor, add the following line to the camera.dev file located in ‘~ctuser/app-
defaults/devices’ after the DICOM Print device has been otherwise configured.
For Trim Off - set TRIM NO
For Trim On - set TRIM YES
• Symptom: DICOM Print Camera supports multiple film sizes and the User only wants to print if the Film
Size is correct for [14x17]. [Otherwise the camera will queue the films or return an error causing the
queue to pause (based upon the DICOM Print Camera specifications).]
• Solution: Using your favorite editor, add the following line to the camera.dev file located in ‘~ctuser/app-
defaults/devices’ after the DICOM Print device has been otherwise configured.
To force a 14x17 film size - set filmSize 14INX17IN
a. Click on Service icon to display the Service Menu desktop, then select Application Shutdown ->
OK.
b. Click on Shell.

di3.dev(Example; This is the file for DICOM printer.)
xxx.dev(Example; another DICOM printer)
> nedit di3.dev <Enter> (Example; the current DICOM printer is ‘di3.dev’.)
d. Add the following line to the dev file for the current DICOM printer.
#first the obligatory fields

set filmSize 14INX17IN (Add this line here!)

#then the optional fields

e. Select File -> Save.

f. Type exit <Enter> to terminate the shell window.

NEED TO PREVENT DICOM PRINT ATTRIBUTES FROM BEING SENT TO DICOM PRINT CAMERA
• Symptom: Some DICOM Print attributes are optional, and may result in fatal errors. For example, the
Fuji camera does not support the Empty Image Density parameter for the film box.
• Solution: Using your favorite editor, add the following line(s) to the camera.dev file located in ‘~ctuser/
app-defaults/devices‘ after the DICOM Print device has been otherwise configured.
- To prevent sending the Smoothing Parameter set FB_Smooth FALSE
- To prevent sending the Border Density set FB_Border FALSE
- To prevent sending the Empty Image Density set FB_EID FALSE
- To prevent sending the Minimum Density set FB_MinD FALSE
- To prevent sending the Trim Parameter set FB_Trim FALSE

3-18 DICOM PRINT TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS (CONTINUED)

ERROR TRYING TO CONNECT TO THE DICOM PRINT CAMERA


• Symptom: DICOM Print server can be reached (ping), but Application error indicates ‘Unable to start
filming interface‘ and the help message talks about running the install.dasm (Association Error)
• Solution: The system is unable to complete the association. Check the AE Title and the Port number of
the DICOM Print Server and correct them using reconfiguration, CT Camera setting screen.

FILM COMPOSER ERROR NOT USABLE


• Symptom: Film Composer error says ‘unrecognized status - code 0‘
• Solution: Review the log file, the attention and status windows. These areas have the correct filming
status (e.g. film jam, supply empty)

DEBUGGING CONNECTION ISSUES DIFFICULT


• Symptom: The timeouts for the DICOM Print are very long, which means one needs to wait a long time
before you know the application is not working.
• Solution: The timeouts for the DICOM Print were setup to ensure that the system would work regardless
of whether the DICOM Print Camera was on a LAN or a WAN halfway around the world. The DICOM
Print timeouts for the association and DIMSE classes (e.g. N-GET, N-DELETE) can be modified within
the DICOM Print camera installation. They can be reduced down to 90 seconds.

DICOM PRINT ERROR ON N-GET TIMEOUT CONFUSING


• Symptom: When the N-GET timeout goes off, the error message in the prslog file will be ‘Could not get
printer status, invalid command sequence for N-GET‘.
• Solution: When the User sees the above error they may want to consider that the issue may be an
inactivity timer on the N-GET DIMSE Service.

DICOM PRINT CAMERA SLIDE SUPPORT


• Symptom: Current implementation of DICOM Print does not allow selection of slide format.
• Solution: Feature not currently supported. Possibly in future releases.

CONFUSION ON FILM FORMAT NOTATION


• Symptom: GEMS Laser Camera and DICOM Print film format notations are opposite.
• Solution: GEMS Laser Camera film format notation has always been
- row x col (e.g. 12 on 1 = 4x3)
- DICOM Print Standard film format notation is
- col x row (e.g. 12 on 1 = 3x4)

7 Filter Center Alignment Aligns the filter to the X-ray tube and the Detector.
Note1: G-SAG is performed if considered necessary.
Note2: If you are sure that some procedures do not have to be performed, in this case, the possible allowed pro-
cedure combination/order should be:

At site installation or X-ray tube replacement, perform 1 → 2 → 3 → 4 → 5 → 6 → 7.


At detector replacement, perform 4 → 5 → 6 → 7.
Note3: Z-axis mis-alignment has serious effect on an image quality for the Twin Detector system, as compared
to the single detector system. Therefor, the Detector position alignment, aperture position alignment, and
tube warm-up sequence at POR and BOW must be properly performed.

4-1 GENERAL (CONTINUED)


Difference of POR Between Twin Detector and Single Detector
For POR of the Twin Detector system, the X–ray beam location after adjustment is determined by the initial position
of the Aperture and Detector (the center between A and B slices).
Therefore, the X–ray beam location adjusted by Film–less POR might be different from one by Film POR, but it is
no problem due to the fact that:
• A slight tilt of X–ray beam against Z–axis has little effect on an image quality.
• The Aperture and Detector are installed using the special tools shipped with the system to ensure reli-
able position and parallelism. (The single Detector does NOT require the aperture alignment tool.)
• During Filmless POR, the X–ray tube temperature is controlled by software so that the X–ray beam can
be exposed at a certain location of the detector. (The single Detector does NOT control the X–ray tube
temperature.)

5-3 HILIGHT CALIBRATION

5-3-1 General
This Hilight calibration should be performed prior to the air and phantom calibrations; and the air and phantom
calibrations should be performed if once the Hilight calibration is performed.
The x-ray tube must be sufficiently cool (the tube case temperature must be below 10 % heat level).

WARNING
ROTATION HAZARDS! SOME HILIGHT CALIBRATIONS ROTATE THE GANTRY (SEE THE
TABLE BELOW). WHEN HILIGHT CALIBRATION IS PERFORMED WITHOUT THE GANTRY
COVERS INSTALLED, ALWAYS MAKE SURE THAT NO PERSON IS IN THE SCAN ROOM.

Hilight Calibration Does gantry rotate?


Q-CAL Yes (The Gantry rotates during warm-up sequence,
but stops during data acquisition sequence.)
XT-CAL Yes
AV-CAL No
DG-CAL Yes (The Gantry rotates during warm-up sequence,
but stops during data acquisition sequence.)

5-7 SYSTEM
CT/e Dual, ProSpeed AII/FII Series
GE HEALTHCARE FUNCTIONAL CHECK / ADJUSTMENT
REV 20 2326039

5-3-2 Q Calibration
The focus position of the x-ray tube shifts with temperature change. It will consequently shift the x-ray beam position
along the Z-axis. In this calibration, the following scans are automatically performed:
• four scans (Thickness: 1, 2, 3, 5, and 10 mm) (when the x-ray tube is cold)
• warm-up scans
• four scans (Thickness: 1, 2, 3, 5, and 10 mm) (when the x-ray tube is hot)
This calibration takes approximately 10 minutes.
1. Preparation:
a. Switch OFF the “Rotate” switch.
b. Remove the gantry front cover.
Note

The bow-tie filter must be removed during Q callibration .


c. Remove the bow-tie filter from the collimator. (Refer to the Component Replacement manual.)
d. Switch ON the “Rotate” switch.
2. Select Q-CAL; refer to below:

Service Menu → Service Calibration → Q-CAL


3. Follow the procedure that appears on the CRT screen.

5-3-3 XT Calibration
The Lumex crystals of the detector cells generate light when they are hit by x-rays. Since the crystals are placed
close to the crystals of the adjacent channels, the light from one channel can interfere with adjacent channels,
causing crosstalk noise. This procedure creates a calibration file to compensate this interference.
This calibration takes approximately 15 minutes.
1. Preparation:
a. Switch OFF the “Rotate” switch.
b. Remove the gantry front cover.
c. Remove the bow-tie filter from the collimator. (Refer to the Component Replacement manual.)
d. Switch ON the “Rotate” switch.
2. Select XT-CAL; refer to below:

Service Menu → Service Calibration → XT-CAL


3. Perform air scans, following the instructions displayed on the CRT screen.

5-3-3 XT Calibration (continued)

WARNING
ROTATION HAZARDS! WHEN YOU PRESS THE ‘POSN LIGHT’ BUTTONS (LARGE BUTTON
AND SMALL BUTTON), THE GANTRY QUICKLY ROTATES TO THE 0° POSITION. IF IT IS
NECESSARY TO PLACE ANY PART OF YOUR BODY INSIDE OR NEAR THE GANTRY,
SWITCH OFF THE ‘SCAN’ SWITCH FIRST.
4. Position the XT phantom at the (scan center + 180 mm) height:
a. Install the XT phantom to the phantom holder.
b. Shift the phantom to the up-limit, using the up-down adjuster.
c. Position the phantom at the scan center; align the positioning lights and a cross marked on the phantom
surface.
d. Hold down the [Height] button to display the current height (ex. ‘-198’), and press the [Up] button to raise
the Table by 180 mm (ex. Until the Display reads ‘-018’).

If the Table can not be raised to the specified height due to the interlock function, switch ON (up) the T3
Table dip switch on the TGP Board to disable the interlock function, and continue to raise the Table. In this
case, be careful not to have the Table collide against anything.
e. Select [Confirm] on the screen.

6. Switch OFF the T3 Table dip switch (if it is set to ON) on the TGP Board.

NOTICE
Do not forget to switch OFF the T3 Table dip switch (if it is set to ON), otherwise there will
be collision hazard, since the interlock function does not work, if T3 is set to ON.

5-3-4 AV Calibration
The light emission of the Lumex Crystal persists after the x-ray radiation stops. This phenomenon is called ‘After
Glow.’ This procedure creates a file called After Glow Vector, used to compensate the After Glow.
This calibration takes approximately 2 minutes.
1. Preparation:
a. Switch OFF the “Rotate” switch.
b. Remove the gantry front cover.
c. Remove the bow-tie filter from the collimator. (Refer to the Component Replacement manual.)
d. Switch ON the “Rotate” switch.

5-3-5 DG Calibration
If some scans are performed with the same conditions but with different scan times, the CT numbers may not be the
same for these scans. This is due to CAM Board gain changes caused by different scan times. The DG calibration
reduces the CT number changes.
This calibration takes approximately 3 minutes.
1. Preparation:
a. Switch OFF the “Rotate” switch.
b. Remove the gantry front cover.
c. Remove the bow-tie filter from the collimator. (Refer to the Component Replacement manual.)

5-5 CT NUMBER ADJUSTMENT


Perform this <CT Number Adjustment> after completing the air and phantom calibrations.
In addition, if you have any doubt whether the CT numbers of the phantom are good or not, perform the CT Number
Adjustment. This adjustment modifies the CT numbers of the 25 cm and 43 cm CAL files until water has a CT
number equal to zero and air has a CT number equal to -1000.
It takes approximately one hour to complete this adjustment.
Note
The CT# of water will change according to its temperature by a factor of -0.4/°C.
1. Select Service → CT Number Adjustment .
2. Follow the procedure that appears on the CRT screen.
( Select all kV.)

while rotating the slip ring, as outlined in Illustration 4-1.
Ten signal slip rings are equipped on the slip ring frame:
7 & 8: for DAS Trigger signal
9 & 10: for TGP → OGP Com. Data
11 & 12: for OGP → TGP Com. Data
The contact check will be performed for each of these three sets of rings.

5. Set the T6 switch of the TGP S1 dip-switch to ON position (illustration 1-2).
6. Move the cradle OUT to its fully retracted position (farthest from Gantry).
7. Set the speed of cradle at 0.5 mm/sec by proceeding the Table Processor Off-line Test No.’020’, which sets
the cradle travel speed to 0.25 to 15mm/sec in increments of 0.25 mm/sec.
8. Push IN switch on the front control panel.
9. Measure the voltage between the test point I_REF and test point GND on Step Motor Driver with multimeter.
(red test lead on I_REF and black test lead on GND). Limit the stepping motor output ‘torque’ between 186N ~
196N (19Kgf.cm ~ 20Kgf.cm) by adjusting the VR4 with screwdriver; the measuring voltage of multimeter is about
1.797DC Volts.
Method of measuring the stepping motor output torque:
a. Tie a rope without elastic in the middle of the cradle handle at the rear of the cradle;
b. Catch the rope with ergometer;
c. Move the cradle IN, pull the ergometer at the opposite cradle moving direction, measure the maximal torque
value of the ergometer at the cradle halt point.
10. Set the speed of cradle at 20 mm/sec by proceeding the Table Processor Off-line Test No.’014’, which sets the
cradle travel speed to 2 to 150mm/sec in increments of 2 mm/sec.
11. Set all the switches of the TGP S1 dip-switch to OFF position (illustration 1-2).
12. Push IN switch on the front control panel.
13. Measure the voltage between the test point I_REF and test point GND on Step Motor Driver with multimeter
(red test lead on I_REF and black test lead on GND). Limit the stepping motor output ‘torque’ between 186N ~
196N (19Kgf ~20Kgf) by adjusting the VR5 with screwdriver; the measuring voltage of multimeter is about 1.9DC
Volts.

NOTICE
Except in emergency, do not set the SYS/OFF/MNL switch to OFF while the gantry is
rotating, or the static brake will be damaged.

NOTICE
Repeated acceleration and deceleration operations of the gantry over a limited period of
time with these service switches may cause an Overload Alarm state or overheating of the
energy dissipation resistor in the servo amplifier.
When doing the operations, take a pause of approximately 20 seconds before changing the
speed.
Note
If the gantry is continuously rotated by the ABT position of the ABT/SVE/FIX switch, this may cause
an overflow of the azimuth counter on the TGP board, resulting an abnormal operation of the gantry.
If this occurs, press the reset button on the TGP board.

CLASS 1 EQUIPMENT
Any permanently installed equipment containing operator or patient accessible surfaces must provide backup
protection against electric shock,in case the BASIC INSULATION fails. In addition to BASIC INSULATION,Class1
equipment contains a direct connection to a PROTECTIVE(EARTH) CONDUCTOR which prevents shocks when a
person touches a broken piece of equipment or touches two different equipment surfaces simultaneously.

TYPE B EQUIPMENT
CLASS I, II, or III EQUIPMENT or EQUIPMENT with INTERNAL ELECTRICAL POWER SOURCES provide an
adequate degree of protection against electric shock arising from (allowable) LEAKAGE CURRENTS or a
breakdown in the reliability of the protective earth connection.

ORDINARY EQUIPMENT
Enclosed EQUIPMENT without protection against the ingress of water.

OPERATION 0f EQUIPMENT
CONTINUOUS OPERATION WITH INTERMITTENT LOADING.
Operation in which EQUIPMENT is connected continuously to the SUPPLY MAINS.The stated permissible loading
time is so short that the long term on-load operating temperature is not attained.The ensuing interval in loading is,
however, not sufficiently long for cooling down to the long term no-load operating temperature.
EQUIPMENT not suitable for use in the presence of a FLAMMABLE ANESTHETIC MIXTURE WITH AIR or WITH
OXYGEN or NITROUS OXIDE

CLEANING
The system is NOT WATERPROOF. It is NOT designed to protect internal components against the ingress of
liquids.Clean external system surfaces(Gantry,table,consoles and accessories)with a soft cloth dipped in hot water
and wrung DAMP/DRY. (NOT dripping!) IF NECESSARY, use only mild (dish washing liquid) soap to remove dirt.

NOTICE
Avoid damage to equipment! Some îspray and wipeîcleaners etch and permanently cloud
clear plastic surfaces!! Use only warm water and mild liquid soap to clean surfaces.
