* If the equipment is to be used in combination with other apparatus, components or modules

whose compatibility is not certain, full checks must be made to assure that the patients or
equipment operators are not exposed to risk. Consult the manufacturer of the apparatus or an
expert.
* This equipment must not be used if there are any electrical, mechanical or radiological faults.
Likewise, it must not be used in the event of a faulty alarm or signal.
* Prior authorisation must be obtained from ATS before making any modifications to the
equipment or its safety devices.
* As with any technical apparatus, the system must be used in a proper manner and solely by
duly trained and qualified personnel. The system should receive regular checks and
maintenance as specified in Part II, Chapter 2 - "Maintenance".
1.4.1 LIABILITY STATEMENT
* ATS can only be held liable for the safety of its products if the product maintenance, repair or
modification is carried out by ATS or by qualified and suitably trained personnel.
* ATS cannot be held liable for any malfunction, damage or danger resulting from improper
use or non-observance for the maintenance regulations.
* The owner of the equipment is responsible for checking that the equipment is used solely by
duly trained and qualified personnel.

TECHNICAL MANUAL
1.4.3 ELECTRICAL SAFETY
* The X-ray equipment must not be used in explosive conditions.

* Unplug the equipment before cleaning, disinfecting and sterilizing it.
* Cleaning and disinfecting products, including those used for patients, can form explosive gas
mixtures. Therefore, only use products that comply with the relevant safety regulations.
* Take care not to spill conducting liquids on the equipment as these could infiltrate and so
damage the equipment and render it unsafe to use.
1.4.4 IONISING RADIATION PROTECTION
Before carrying out any exposure, make sure that all the necessary radiation protections have been
activated.
During X-ray use, the personnel present in the X-ray room must observe the radiation protection
regulations in force. The following rules apply here:
* Where necessary, use radiation protection accessories.

* Use the special radio-protective suits. A radio-protective material equivalent to 0.35 mm of lead gives
99.95% protection against radiation of 50 kV and 94.5% protection against radiation of 100 kV.
* Distance is the best protection against radiation: always keep as far away from the source of the X-
rays and the exposure objective as possible. To this end, use the full length of the X-ray control
footswitch cable.
* Avoid moving or remaining within the X-ray trajectory.
* Always set the smallest exposure field possible by closing the collimator diaphragms. In fact,
dispersed radiation depends to a large extent on the volume of the irradiated object.
1.4.5 RESIDUAL RISKS
The system has been designed and built in full respect of the safety regulations.
Nevertheless, there are still some risks involved in the use of this system if it is used incorrectly or the
prescribed safety measures are faulty.
With regard to risks due to improper use of the equipment, see the instructions and recommendations
above (1.4.3).
Note also that:
- The monitor stand has been tested for stability on inclined surfaces (up to 10°).
* Never use the monitor stand on surfaces with an incline of more than10°.
* Never try to move the monitor stand when its brakes are engaged.
* When moving the monitor stand, avoid all obstacles on the ground (e.g. cables and steps).
- The I.I. tube stand has been designed to bear the weight of the system.
* Never add other accessories which can increase the load on the stand.
* Never rest or lean on the I.I. unit.

code 50 80 004 - Mti S1 01 04.doc
TECHNICAL MANUAL
With regard to residual risks due to faults in the prescribed safety measures, note that:
- Protection against electric shocks is provided by means of an efficient earth system for all metal
parts covering the equipment.
* The internal earth circuit (for both internal and external parts) should therefore be checked
for efficiency on a regular basis (see the "routine maintenance" schedule described in part 5
of this manual).
- The system provides signals to enable X-ray fluoroscopy.

To avoid X-ray emission without request, a double enable X-ray command circuit has been
implemented. It is also necessary that the X-ray generator has its own safety circuit (see point 3.3.4
in part 2 of this manual).
* The efficiency of the X-ray emission enable circuits during fluoroscopy (both the internal and
external circuits in the system) should therefore be checked for efficiency on a regular basis
(see the "routine maintenance" schedule described in part 5 of this manual).
- If the LCD monitor's TV screen is hit hard enough, it could break and scatter liquid crystal, that is
toxic.
- Avoid hitting the monitor with any objects.

a) kV UP DOSE COMP and kV DOWN DOSE COMP logic outputs. These logic outputs can
be adjusted using potentiometers P5, P6 on CCDVP 00 (B2) board.
b) Analog output in proportion to the video output level in the dominant area (0 - 5 V). The
default range setting for this output is 0 to +5 V; corrected dose value +2 V.
The analog signal gives the most reliable adjustment.

3.3.3 FLUOROSCOPY COMMAND SAFETY
To avoid accidental radiation, the system uses the following safety devices:
- X-ray command with double optoinsulator.
- Double output for RX enable.
The double input and output command circuit offers good safety,
but the installer must take care that the right X-ray command arrives from the CD100
system.
A possible connection can be (see fig. 17a):

The X-ray generator checks for a signal from the fluoroscopy foot switch and only enables X-ray
emission via a contact connected in series to the O.FLUORO signal supplied by the CD100
system.
RACK
Fig. 17a
Note: ENABLE RX must be:

- closed, when FLUORO FOOT SW is closed,
- opened, about 200 - 300 ms after the opening of FLUORO FOOT SW.
Another possible connection can be (see fig. 17b):

The generator commands the X-Ray emission only if there is contemporary the fluoroscopy
footswitch signal and the O.FLUORO signal.
RACK
Fig. 17b
Note: The X-Ray emission has to stop normally with the disactivation of O.FLUORO signal.
The emission must be stop also if the O.FLUORO signal stays active for 100 ms after the
release of the fluoroscopy footswitch.

code 50 80 004 - Mti S2 03 03.doc
TECHNICAL MANUAL
3.4 IMAGE ORIENTATION
The X-ray image on the monitor must be oriented correctly, i.e. respecting the top, bottom, left and
right, as shown in figure 18a.
If the image appears on the monitor at an angle, as shown in figure 18b, the image must be righted.
To do this:
- Remove the cover on the TV Camera head by removing screw A (figure 19a).
The Camera head (optical lens + CCDH board) can now be accessed.
- Loosen the 3 screws B (figure 19) to be able to rotate the Camera head.
Turn the Camera head until the image appears upright on the monitor.
- If you want to reverse the image, use the jumpers on board SBFM (JP6 for vertical reverse and JP5
for horizontal reverse. See figure 20.).
Warning: Adjustments must be made with the TV Camera switched on and X-ray emission
active: take all the necessary precautions.

TECHNICAL MANUAL
1.4.2 SYSTEM QUALITY CHECK
Below is a list of checks and tests required to check that the system is working correctly.
If there is a malfunction, see the troubleshooting guide in parts 4 and 5 of this manual (
"ADJUSTMENTS" and "Maintenance").
C.14 DOSE INTENSITY IN AIR
This measurement is taken at the I.I. tube input.
Reference values: There are no reference values.

ATS has adopted a value of 35 µR/s (= 305 nGy/s) at 70 kV, under the following
conditions.
Procedure: - I.I. tube in normal field with 1 mm copper filter on open collimator.
- Dosimeter probe on front surface of I.I. tube, resting on the edge.
- Set 70 kV.
- Give the fluoroscopy command and adjust the mA to get a dose reading of 35
µR/s (±10%) on the dosimeter.
- Check that the video signal input to the monitor is 350 mV (±10%).
Description: See point 3.1 in part 4 of this manual.
C.15 AUTOMATIC CHECK OF DOSE
Reference values: The adjustment of the kV must be quick, in sequence and repeatable.
Procedure: - I.I. tube in normal field with 1 mm copper filter on open collimator.
- Oscilloscope with probe at B1-TP5 (0 V at B1-TP2).
- Give the automatic fluoroscopy command and check that there is a video
signal input to the monitor on the oscilloscope of 350 mV (±10%) under
stable conditions.
- Select the 2nd zoom level and repeat the fluoroscopy, making sure that the
oscilloscope quickly moves to the previous level 350 mV video signal input to
the monitor ,(±10%).
- Select the 3rd zoom level and repeat the fluoroscopy, again making sure that
the oscilloscope quickly moves to the previous level 350 mV video signal input
to the monitor, (±10%).
C.16 GREY LEVEL
Reference value: ATS has adopted the LEEDS test GS 2, following the instructions contained in
the paper "The Leeds test objects - 11/84". All grey levels must be legible on the
monitor.
Procedure: - I.I. tube in normal field with 1 mm copper filter on open collimator, 1m SID,
Leeds test GS 2 phantom on I.I. surface.
- Give the automatic fluoroscopy command and check that the kV value is
roughly 70 kV.
If the difference is >3 kV, modify the mA value; if it is not possible, change the
value of filter to obtain 70 kV ±3kV.
- Check that all the envisaged phantom grey levels are legible on the monitor.
- Repeat the test at other zoom levels.
Description: See point 2.1 in this part of the manual.

code 50 80 004 - Mti S3 01 04.doc
TECHNICAL MANUAL
C.17 SPATIAL RESOLUTION
Reference value: ATS has used an 18" FUNK resolution test phantom. Check that the values
obtained during the test are close to those indicated in the Test Report attached
to the system.
Procedure: - I.I. tube in normal field with phantom at 45° on centre of field.
- Give the fluoroscopy command and adjust the kV and mA to get the best
image.
- Find the best resoltuion of the image on the monitor.
- Repeat the test with the phantom placed at the edge of the field.
- Repeat these two tests at the other zoom levels.
C.18 LOW CONTRAST RESOLUTION WITH CONSTRUCTION OF THE MTF CURVE
Reference values: ATS has used a "LEEDS test TO 10" phantom. Check that the values obtained
during the test are close to those indicated in the Test Report attached to the
system.
Procedure: - I.I. tube in normal field with 1 mm copper filter on open collimator, 1m SID,
Leeds test TO 10 phantom on I.I. surface.
- Give the automatic fluoroscopy command and check that the kV value is
roughly 70 kV.
If the difference is >3 kV, modify the mA value; if it is not possible, change the
value of filter to obtain 70 kV ±3kV.
- Find the number of visible details in each series on the monitor.
- Using these value, construct the MTF curve.
- Compare this curve with the one given in the Test Report.
C.19 I.I. TUBE CONVERSION FACTOR
Reference values: Since the system automatically adjusts the X-ray dose to suit the video level
reading, a loss in the I.I. tube conversion will correspond to an increase in the
X-ray dose needed to get the right video signal level.
The reference value is that measured at point C.14 above.
Procedure: - Compare the actual air dose with the findings of the previous tests.

SYSTEM QUALITY CHECKS
2.1 GREY LEVEL
The grey level quality is tested by ATS in the factory using a LEEDS test GS2 phantom, with:
- 1 mm copper filter on open collimator.

- 1m SID.
- LEEDS test GS2 phantom placed on the surface of the I.I. tube.
Procedure:
- I.I. tube on normal field.

- Set 70 kV, give the manual fluoroscopy command and adjust the mA to get the reference dose of 35
µR/s (= 305 nGy/s), ±10% (see note 2).
- Check that all the envisaged grey levels for the phantom are legible on the monitor.
- Repeat this test at the other zoom levels.
Note 1: Figure Q1 shows the forms of all the grey level details contained in the phantom.
Note 2: If the generator doesn't let you select the kV and mA separately:
- Adjust the kV to get 35 µR/s when you give the fluoroscopy command;
- Check the kV value and, if the difference is higher than 3 kV, change the thickness of the
copper filter so that you get 35 µR/s with 70 kV (±3 kV).

2.2 SPATIAL RESOLUTION
Spatial resolution is measured in the factory with:

- Resolution test FUNK type 18, at 45° on the I.I. tube in 3 different positions (centre and either side,
as shown in figure Q2).
- kV and mA set to get the best image.
- Reading of line pairs on the monitor.

TECHNICAL MANUAL
2.3 LOW CONTRAST RESOLUTION AND MTF CURVE
The low contrast resolution and the construction of the MTF curve (modulation transfer) are tested in
the factory using a LEEDS test TO10 phantom, with:

- 1 mm copper filter on open collimator.
- 1m SID.
- LEEDS test TO10 phantom placed on the surface of the I.I. tube.
Procedure:
- Set 70 kV, give the manual fluoroscopy command and adjust the mA until you get 35 µR/s (= 305
nGy/s), (±10%).
- Find the number of visible details on the monitor for each series of details.
- Use table 2.4 attached to "The LEEDS test objects (11/84)" paper to find the values required to
construct the MTF curve (see the "Test Report" attached to the system).
Note: Figure Q3 shows the form of the phantom.

TECHNICAL MANUAL
2.4 I.I. TUBE CONVERSION FACTOR
On a regular basis, every 6 / 12 months, you need to check and, if necessary, compensate for the loss
of the I.I. tube conversion factor (response).
This check is carried out using the known methods (see note 1).
This check is important for the system to be able to adjust automatically the X-ray dose depending on
the reading of the I.I. tube light output: thus the loss of the I.I. tube conversion factor leads to an
increase in X-ray dose.
The loss of the conversion factor can be compensated for, where possible, in three ways:
1 Increasing, where possible, the opening of the optic iris. Then:
2 Increasing the video gain (potentiometer B1-P3 "VIDEO GAIN").

This will, however, lead to an increase in the electrical disturbance of the TV Camera and
so should only be used as long as the image remains acceptable.
3 Increasing (if necessary) the X-ray dose to the local legal limits.
When the above operations fail to have the required effect, replace the I.I. tube.
Note 1: An increase in the X-ray dose timing can indicate a loss in the I.I. tube conversion factor.
To facilitate the analysis of the I.I. tube, compare regular readings of the X-ray doses, during
the checks, under known conditions.

1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 GENERAL AND ABBREVIATIONS
The equipment is fully adjusted before leaving the factory and so simply needs to be installed
on delivery.
The information given in this chapter covers maintenance operations.
The following terms are used :
Medium grey level: This is the level of the CCD sensor output signal with the corrected X-ray
dose on the leading edge of the I.I. tube with an even filter.
Dynamic range: This is the difference between the medium grey level and the maximum grey
levels supplied by the CCD sensor.
The adjustment procedure described in this manual requires a dynamic range of 1:3 (γ = 0.6).
Note 1: All the adjustment procedures for the system are summarised and illustrated in figures 21, 22
and 23 (adjustments to individual boards).
Note 2: The adjustments assume the following general test Set Up conditions, unless otherwise
specified :
I.I. tube on normal field;
- 1 mm copper filter on X-ray output;
- Collimator open to suit size of I.I. field.
Plus the specific test measuring conditions as required.

2 kV and mA INDICATIONS DURING FLUOROSCOPY
2.1 DISPLAY CALIBRATION Kv and mA
If the system has a control panel (optional), the kV and mA displays on this needs to be calibrated.
These two displays show the X-ray parameters in line with the DC voltage supplied by the generator.
The table below shows the reading range and the default settings.
DISPLAY Reading range Default setting Adjustment potentiometer
kV 1 V = 10÷20 kV 1 V = 20 kV B5-P1
mA 1 V = 0.5÷1 mA 1 V = 1 mA B5-P2
To calibrate the displays:
- Set a known kV value on the generator (e.g.: 100 kV).

- Check that the control panel display shows the same reading (in our example: 100 kV). If not, adjust
potentiometer B5-P1 accordingly.
- Set a known mA value on the generator (e.g.: 3 mA).

- Check that the control panel display shows the same reading (in our example: 3 mA). If not, adjust
potentiometer B5-P2 accordingly.

3.1 DOSE SETTING
This procedure, summarised and illustrated in figures 24a and 24b and then described, is used to
obtain the correct exposure value to achieve the system reference dose (35uR/s) in specific condition.
FLUORO DOSE : 35 μR/s @ 70kV
Fig. 24a
Note 1: The X-ray dose must be measured at the

leading edge of the I.I. tube. If this is fitted with
a grid, it must first be removed in order to
place the dosemeter probe underneath (see
fig. 24b).
Fig. 24b
- Measuring conditions: - Dosemeter probe resting on the leading edge of the I.I. tube, held at the side.
- Select µR/s scale on dosemeter.
- Select 70 kV (see note 1).
- Start fluoroscopy.
- Adjust the mA value to get a reading of 35 µR/s (= 305 nGy/s) on the dosimeter.
Note 2: If the generator does not allow you to select the kV and mA separately:
- Adjust the kV until there is a reading of 35 µR/s when you start fluoroscopy.
- Check the kV reading and then, if the difference is >3 kV, change the thickness of the
copper filter to get 35 µR/s with 70 kV (±3 kV).

4.7 ADJUSTING THE REFERENCE SIGNAL FOR AGC AND DOSE CONTROL
The AGC and ADE functions (automatic control of the TV camera gain and automatic dose control
signal generation respectively) use the same video level measurement in the reading window as their
reference.
This measurement can be obtained by reading the peak value reading or the average video signal
value in the reading window, depending on the type of application installed (the system is normally
supplied with the peak value reading setting).
To this end, the TV camera lets you position jumper Jp7 on board CCDVP (B2) as required:
- JP7 2-3 peak value reading,
- Jp7 1-2 average value reading.
4.7.1 ADJUSTING THE READING WINDOW FOR AGC AND DOSE CONTROL
- Take jumper JP3 on board B2 to position 1-2 (see figure 33) to display the electronic window on the
monitor.
- Give the X-ray command and adjust potentiometer B2-P14 (WINDOW SIZE) to get 1/3 of the
elettronic circle window on the monitor.
- Return jumper JP3 to position 2-3.

• JP7 2-3 Peak detect:

Give the X-ray command and then adjust the dose to get a signal of 350 mV at Tp19.
No adjustments possible.
Check that the voltage at Tp16 is 1.8 V (± 100 mV).
• JP7 1-2 Average detect:

Give the X-ray command and then adjust the dose to get a signal of 350 mV at Tp19.
No adjustments possible.
Check that the voltage at Tp16 is 1.8 V (± 100 mV).

4.10 AUTOMATIC DOSE CONTROL SIGNAL (ADE)
During image acquisition, the system provides the X-ray generator with signals for automatic control of
the X-ray dose.
You can chose between 2 types of X-ray dose correction signal:
a) Logical outputs kV UP DOSE COMP and kV DOWN DOSE COMP.
The intervention of these logical outputs can be adjusted using potentiometers P5 and P6 on
board B2.
b) Analog output proportional to the video signal level at the centre of the monitor (in the reading
window).
In this case, the output level can be adjusted to within one of the following variation ranges
depending on the X-ray generator type:
1. 0 to +5 V (default setting, with corrected dose value set at +2 V),
2. -2 to +4.5 V (with corrected dose value typically set at 0 V),
3. 0 to -5 V (with corrected dose value typically set at -2 V),
4. +2 to -4.5 V (with corrected dose value typically set at 0 V).
Note: Solutions 3 and 4 above (symmetric to solutions 1 and 2) are obtained by moving jumper
JP6 on board CCDVP to 1-2.
A better dose control is obtained with the analog signal.
a) Logical output:

- Give the X-ray command with the correct dose in manual, checking if the signal on B2-TP6 is 350
mV.
- Adjust the potentiometer B2-P6 (OFFSET ADE) to have the 2 leds LD1 and LD2 "OFF".
- Adjust the sensitivity of the generator kV variation with B2-P5 (GAIN ADE) to have a fast response
and no oscillation.

2.5 CENTERING THE CAMERA
To centre the TV Camera, the centre of the CCD sensor (which corresponds to the centre of the
image) needs to be in line with the centre of the I.I. tube output screen.
The working area of the CCD is shown in the monitor by a square, representing the matrix of the
digital memory (576 x 576 pixels).
The drawings in figure 45 give examples of correct and incorrect centering.
Measuring conditions: - I.I. tube on normal field.

- Exclude the electronic circle (turn potentiometer P12 on B2 board fully
counterclockwise).
Remove the upper cover on the I.I. tube.
Loosen the 3 screws "A" fixing the lens to the I.I. tube plate (see figures 44a and 44b).
Give the X-ray command at the minimum dose and mechanically centre the TV Camera by gently
shifting the "Camera head” (optical lens and sensor board unit until the image is centred inside the
memory matrix.
Carefully fix the optical lens in position by tightening the 3 screws "A".

2.10 ADJUSTING THE I.I. TUBE POWER RATING
Note: The rating only needs to be adjusted once the I.I. tube has been replaced.
Calibration involved adjusting the I.I. tube grid rating to match those defined by the manufacturer
(Thales).
Test Report:
Find the Test Report for the equipment. This also
includes the I.I. tube Test Report compiled by Thales
(see Figure 46).
EXAMPLE
(Fig. 46)
Test Point and Potentiometers:
The power unit has Test Points (see Fig. 47) with DC voltage proportional to the actual grid value.
The table below indicates the voltage rates that need to be adjusted using the corresponding test
points:
Voltage U3: adjusted using trimmer G3 to define the size of the input image that suits the selected
zoom factor
Voltage U2: adjusted using trimmer G2 to get the best resolution at the centre of the image
Voltage U1: adjusted using trimmer G1 to get the best resolution at the edge/centre of the image
Test point Ratio Unit

(V test point / V grid)
TP1 related to U1 0.01± 2% V/V
TP2 related to U2 1± 3% V/kV
TP3 related to U3 0.1± 6% V/kV

codice 50 80 004 - Mti S5 02 10.doc
TECHNICAL MANUAL
Setup procedure:
After replacing the power unit and connecting all the I.I. tube connectors correctly, switch the system
on again and then:
Select the normal field and adjust the voltage as indicated in field “Normal Mode” on the Test
Report:
- measure voltage U3 at TP3 and adjust with trimmer G3 = typ. 350 mV
- measure voltage U2 at TP2 and adjust with trimmer G2 = typ. 600 mV.
- measure voltage U1 at TP1 and adjust with trimmer G1 = typ.1.5 V.
Select zoom 1 and adjust the voltage as indicated in field “Magn. 1” field on the Test Report:
- measure voltage U1 at TP1 and adjust with trimmer G1 = typ 1.8 V.
Select zoom 2 and adjust the voltage as indicated in field “Magn. 2” field on the Test Report:
- measure voltage U3 at TP3 and adjust with trimmer G3 = typ. 1.05 V.
- measure voltage U2 at TP2 and adjust with trimmer G2E = typ. 700 mV.
- measure voltage U1 at TP1 and adjust with trimmer G1 = typ. 1.5 V.

4 SCRAPPING
4.1 PROCEDURES AND PRECAUTIONS
When scrapping the device, special care must be taken when handling the following components as
these can be hazardous:
- The I.I. tube contains a vacuum tube which, should it break, can send shards of glass flying
and disperse powder and gas that may be toxic; it also contains lead that must be considered
a toxic material.
- The LCD monitor contains a input screen which, should it break, can send shards of glass
flying and disperse powder and toxic materials (mercury).
- The equipment contains printed circuit boards which contain a certain amount of lead: this
is a toxic material and must be treated as such.
Other parts of the equipment are:

- ferrous material (frames etc.),
- plastic (guards etc.),
- wiring,
- optical materials.
These parts are not considered to be a potential source of hazards when scrapping the device.
All parts should be disposed of in accordance with the prevailing regulations in each country
at the moment of scrapping.
This symbol is placed on the equipment to remind you that the equipment meets
the European Environmental Directives (2002/95/EC, 2002/96/EC, 2003/108/EC)
and so must be scrapped in accordance with the relevant laws for separated waste
disposal.
This equipment must not be disposed of as normal urban solid waste: it must
be taken to an expert waste disposal centre or returned to the dealer, should
you wish to replace it with a new model.
