2.3 Computer Screen Output/Input Character Styles

Within this publication different character styles are used to indicate computer input and output text.
Character (input, output, and variable) styles are used and applied to the text within a paragraph so
as to indicate directions. Computer screen output and input is also formatted using mono (fixed
width) spaced fonts.
Example: This paragraph denotes computer screen fixed output. It’s output is fixed
Fixed Output 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.
Example: This paragraph denotes computer screen output that is variable. Its output
Variable Output varies from application to application. Variable output is sometimes found
placed between greater than and lesser than operators. For example:
<variable_ouput>
Example: This paragraph denotes fixed input. It’s typed input that will not vary
Fixed Input from application to application. Fixed text the user is required to supply
as input.
Example: This paragraph denotes computer input that can vary from application to
Variable Input application. Variable text the user is required to supply as input.
Variable input sometimes is placed between greater than and lesser than
operators. For example: <variable_input>. In these cases, the (<>)
operators are dropped prior to input. Exceptions are noted in the text.

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.

Section 2.0
Install Table/Gantry Introduction
This chapter describes how to mount, position, and level the CT Scanner subsystems.
Note: Before you start the installation, make sure the site preparation complies with conditions and
instructions found in the pre-installation manual. Failure to comply will result in excessive
installation delay and potential increased, unrecoverable installation costs. This product is designed
to meet specific mechanical installation standards, which should be reviewed prior to installing this
system.

2.1 Floor and Room Preparation

2.1.1 Preparation
Consult your local GE Sales and service representative about your specific needs. It is the
purchaser’s (buyer) responsibility to provide an approved support structure and an approved
method of mounting. General Electric is not responsible for any failure of the support structure or
method of anchoring.
The ACT Series system with up/down table has a total floor load of approximately 1870kg
(4123lbs). About 1350kg (2976 lbs), including patient (180 kg (397 lbs)), is concentrated in the
table-gantry assembly. Refer to the Pre-installation Manual for more information.
The ACT Series system with fix table has a total floor load of approximately 1710kg (3770lbs).
About 1190kg (2624lbs), including patient (180 kg (397 lbs)), is concentrated in the table-gantry
assembly. Refer to the Pre-installation Manual for more information.

2.1.2 Flooring
Do not place the scanner on any resilient flooring. Resilient tile or carpeting may slowly yield over
a period of time and disturb the alignment of the table to the gantry. Refer to the floor template to
determine locations where resilient flooring material should be removed.
Limitations include:
• No part of the floor surface within the table, gantry, or the two interface areas between table
and gantry, should be higher than the support areas for the table and gantry.
• The floor structure must withstand the occupied weight of table and gantry, as well as the
individual contact area loading of these components.
• The method and placement of anchors, or through bolts, must not reduce the structural
strength of the floor.

2.2 Overview

Procedures in this chapter provide detailed instructions to position, level, and anchor the gantry and
table securely for operation. The ACT Series system uses adjustable leveling pads to support the
gantry and table. The gantry has four (4) primary leveling pads located on the gantry base. The
table has four (4) pads used for leveling it.
The process you will be following is:
1.) Use the room-layout template to determine the general position of the gantry and table.
2.) Move the gantry into position.
3.) Drill the four gantry anchor holes according to the gantry location.
4.) Level gantry.

the concrete was not met. The second anchor shall be installed to the standard depth and torque
specification. Do not cut anchor bolts that extend longer than the 1-inch limit.

4.2.1 Note 1: Alternate Anchoring


If at least four anchors cannot be set for the gantry, and at least four anchors for the table, then the
installer must inform GE that the minimum anchoring cannot be met. Additionally, a structural
engineering contractor must be engaged to determine the anchoring method and to certify that their
anchoring meets the stated GE minimum load requirement and torque specification.

4.2.2 Note 2: Non-Concrete Floors


All other anchoring methods — on floor types other than the concrete minimum — must be
determined at the customer’s expense, by a structural engineering contractor. The anchoring
method must be certified to meet the stated GE minimum load requirement and torque specification.

4.2.3 Note 3: GE Notification


It is not the role of the mechanical contractor or installer to determine acceptable methods to install
or anchor equipment on non-4-inch concrete floors. The appropriate GE contact person shall be
notified that the facility’s floor type DOES NOT MEET the installation mounting requirement for the
installation procedure (described in this Installation Manual), and therefore the table-gantry
mounting process CANNOT continue.

NOTICE Before you drill or cut any flooring, make sure the appropriate hospital personnel have
approved the location of the table/gantry.

NOTICE You must cover all electronic assemblies in the table base prior to drilling to prevent
damage due to the dust created during drilling.
a.) Attach a piece of tape to the 12 mm concrete drill bit (2203081: HILTI, TE-CX 12/17 or

4.4.2.5 Anchor The Table


1.) Attach a piece of tape to the 12 mm concrete drill bit (2203081: HILTI, TE-CX 12/17 or
equivalent) in order to assure a minimum of 100 mm depth of anchor hole.
Note: The concrete drill bit length is 250mm is recommend. The total length for electric drill and concrete
drill bit is less than 600mm is recommend for fit the space of the table.

Tape

2.) Make holes at the anchor position, using electric drill with the bit prepared in the previous step,
so that the lower edge of the tape just touch the floor surface.
NOTICE During drilling, always keep the drill bit perpendicular to the floor. With one person drilling
the hole, the second person can visually insure perpendicularity throughout the drilling
operation. Clear the hole of debris several times while drilling to prevent the drill bit from
binding.
Note: If any obstruction is found under the proper anchoring position, stop drilling and use the alternate
position (see Figure 1-52). Use the alternate positions only when the case its corresponding proper
position is not possible.

6.) Level the Table using the four adjusters.


Each one of the adjusters contains the lock nut, after level adjustment, tighten the lock nuts
securely.
Level Specification: +/- 0.2 degree
7.) Check that the cradle is also leveled.
8.) Alignment recheck according to 4.4.2.4 Table and Gantry Alignment.
9.) Tighten the anchor nut to the specified torque to fix the anchor bolts into the floor.
Torque: 50 N-m
NOTICE If specified torque cannot be achieved, another anchor point must be used. See Figure 1-37
for alternative anchor position.

10.) Loosen all of the anchor nuts, then re-tighten the anchor nuts securely.
NOTICE Do not tighten the anchor nuts to the specified torque (50 N•m), because the anchor bolts,
tighten in previous step, has been fixed securely into the floor. So, to over-tighten nuts will
damage the frame of the Table and also bring an out-of-level Table.
11.) Remove the Gantry and Table alignment tools and reinstall the rail attachments to the cradle.

Introduction
Site use of conduit, floor duct, wall duct, or a raised computer floor, as well as the individual
component layout determines the system cable sequence. If your site has floor or wall ducts that
will interfere with placement of the table/gantry, it may be important to have the movers unload the
cable boxes (8 & 9) first and run those cables while others unload the subsystems.
• Try to run the system cables after the contractor completes the contractor supplied wiring.
• All ground wires and other contractor wiring should be complete to the point of equipment
placement.
NOTICE Potential for Equipment Damage
Do not store excess cable in the bottom of the PDU or Gantry.

When possible, store excess cable length in a serpentine configuration, approximately one meter
long. (Do NOT coil excess cable.)

Figure 2-1 Excess Cable Storage Configuration

Ty-wraps

Approximately length of duct

• Keep signal and control cables away from power cables and power wiring. When you lay
cables in a raceway, locate the signal cables in a separate section of the raceway, or a
separate conduit.
• Check all connections for tightness.
- Use suitable tools and judgment.
- Check all visible connections, especially ground connections.
• Check for reasonable cable routing.
- Take into consideration necessary take-up distances for equipment maintenance, etc.
- Try to complete as neat a job as possible.

PDU Cable Connections & Configuration
CAUTION Do not work in an energized PDU. When working on the PDU, follow this simple rule: Always
tag and lock out power to the PDU at the “main” disconnect. Failure to do so can result in
electrocution or death.
Do apply power to the PDU until all work has been completed and all PDU covers are in their
proper place.

9.1 NGPDU

As seen in Figure 2-23, a number of cables must be installed throughout the PDU. Specific details
on each connection can be found in the sub-sections that follow. Use Figure 2-23 for reference. The

DIRECTION 5487205-1EN, REVISION 1 ACT SERIES INSTALLATION MANUAL

3.2 Required Conditions

Check head holder for a tight fit. If the head holder fit is loose, follow this procedure.
Introduction:
• Some Axial Head Holders have a large free-play in the horizontal direction which could
potentially lead to motion and therefore image artifacts.
• Installation of the 2327335 rubber shim kit can minimize this motion.

Notes before Selecting Shim Thickness:


• While selecting the best shim size, do not attach the rubber shim yet using the adhesive on the
back. It is best to use a piece of tape to hold on the shim in order to see if the size is correct.
• Selecting a shim size that is too thick may result in:
- Difficulty latching the head holder properly. The head holder must latch so that a patient
is not injured.
- Damage to the plastic latch or the plastic screws that secure it.

Correct - Head Holder is latched onto first step of plastic latch mechanism (The head holder does
not need to be latched onto the second step)

Wrong - Head Holder is NOT latched after installing shims


Page 114 Section 3.0 - Head Holder Shim Installation
GE COMPANY 
DIRECTION 5487205-1EN, REVISION 1 ACT SERIES INSTALLATION MANUAL

3.3 Procedure

1.) First place the two 4.0mm shims (thickest size) onto both edges of the head holder as
shown (use a piece of tape to temporarily secure them)
- The shim must be placed with the tab facing out
- The thickness is printed on the shim

3 - Continuity Checks
2.) Insert the head holder into the cradle
3.) Check if the head holder is latched onto the cradle at the first step of the plastic latch
mechanism. (The head holder does not need to be latched onto the second step)
4.) Check if the head holder has a small free-play in the horizontal direction

5.) If the rubber is too thick, repeat steps 1 to 4 using a thinner shim (3.5, 3.0...0.5mm) until
the head holder is latched (without excessive force) and fits securely in the cradle.If the
thinnest shim (0.5mm) is too tight, the tab can be cut off to reduce the thickness

6.) Clean off the surfaces where the shims will mount using alcohol.
7.) Peel off the paper from the back of the selected shims and attach with the tabs facing out.
Hold each shim with your fingers for a few seconds to attach it to the head holder.
