Camera head 2-1
VIDEOMED DI
Camera head Task: Conversion of the 1.1. output video signal (light) into a
correspondinq electronic video signal (voltage)
The circular 1.1. output image is distorted elliptically via an
anamorphotic lens (3:4) and thus projected onto the CCD input
surface. As a result, a larger number of sensor matrix pixels is
used in the horizontal direction and a higher horizontal resolution is
obtained. The CCD converts the optical video signal into an analog
electrical video signal. PC boards D113 and Dll4 are located in
the camera head. The sensor control is located on PC board
D113. The sensor-specific control signals as well as synchronous
and blanking signals for synchronization of the following TV
subassemblies are generated on this PC board. PC board Dll4
serves for processing of the B-signal; as a result, an output signal
of 2Vpp max. at 75 Q is provided for the video processor.
Note ! The pixel clock as well as the N-Sync signal are necessary for
operating the TV system!

the video amplifier, it is switched to the video channel of the analog
processor via a 4:l multiplexer. Signals which are required to test
the analog switching devices are applied to the three other
multiplexer inputs, e.g.:
- digital test frames from the DSP PC board
- a horizontally frequent sawtooth signal which is generated
on the AP PC board via an integrator circuit
- the measuring field from the measuring field PROM of the
DSP PC board.

Clamping Task: Adaptation of the B-signal blanking level to the “cutoff point”
of the ADC.
A clamping circuit before the filter clamps the video signal so that
the pedestal value coincides with the “cutoff point” of the A/D
converter; as a result, the B-signal is converted digitally.

Actual value
Task: Generation of an actual control value for ADC and AGC
acquisition
The VID-DI supplies an actual value for dose rate control and AGC
which depends on the current B-signal value. For actual value
acquisition, the B-signal is decoupled behind the AGC final control
element of the video channel. In the following stage, the signal
outside the measuring field is blanked so that only the B-signal
value within the measuring field may influence the control. Then,
the signal is “evaluated”. A de. voltage value corresponding to the
“mean value of the total signal” is obtained via an integrator circuit.
During the V-pulse, this d-c. voltage value is stored in the following
S&H stage and is available as analog actual value. The signal is
converted into a digital value via one of the A/D converter inputs of
the f.rC on memory PC board D3 and then transmitted via an
interface to the generator during each V-pulse. In addition, the
actual value is used for AGC implemented in the PC.
With VID-DIK, the analog actual value (X604) is available for the KK
interface and thus for dose rate control.

The circular blanking signal and the digital test frames are
generated by a gate array (“circle”). Like the measuring field data,
the circle data are stored in PROMS which are addressed by the
gate array. Circular signal blanking takes place via the ALU.

TV control
Task: Generation of the TV control signals and troubleshooting.
Control of the VID-DI takes place via the PC on the DSP PC board
(D3). The TV system software is stored in a PROM which must be
replaced during software replacement. The system specific
parameters are stored in an EEPROM and can be read out and
stored on a floppy for service purposes or “backup”. With
n restore”, the system parameters are restored in the EEPROM.
These parameters can be modified via the service software or via
service switch Sl on the DSP PC board (D3). (see service
instructions)
System interface D5- PC board D5 XCS establishes the connection from the XCS
xcs system controller to the other XCS components.
The actual brightness value for dose rate control is transmitted to
the generator via the XCS interface (plug X11). The actual
brightness interface is a 20mA current loop. The active emitter is
located in the TV system, the passive emitter which separates the
two subassemblies galvanically is located in the generator.
The signal radiation “ON” is transmitted from the generator to the
TV system via plug Xl 1.
If the J.LC/D~ detects a system failure, transmission of the actual
image brightness value is interrupted.
A system identification must be programmed on the PC board
(HEX switch SlID5).
Signals which are not time-critical are interrogated or sent by the
XCS system controller via the XCS network (input Xl 3, output Xl 2.

VIDEOMED DI
System interface ET- To use the VID-DI also in systems with KK cabling, a KK interface
KK has been developed. This has the following functions :
- Decoupling of the actual value signal MB-Sign. with
subsequent processing of the control signal for dose rate
control in the generator.

lnitialization
After startup, the PC performs a number of self-tests and
adjustment routines. With successful initialization, the LED displays
remain dark.
During initialization, all control signals are adjusted basically and
data are assumed from the EE-PROMS.
Actual value acquisition, fixed gain of the video amplifier and the
ADC for digitizing the B-signal together with the l.& correction are
adjusted.
Self-adjustment If adjustment is not possible with initialization, the bar pattern (250
kHz) is output and the error is displayed by LEDs (see service
instructions). If offset adjustment is not possible, the most
approximate value is output. The serial interface for the actual
brightness value is blocked. In the event of an error, the actual
brightness value is not output to the generator via D5.
With 05 KK, the analog control signal is generated also in the
event of an error.
AGC
After actual value adjustment, AGC adjustment takes place as
follows:
1. Output of default value for gain.
2. Select H-sawtooth with measuring field 0.
3. Adjust final control element (controllable amplifier) to the
desired gain via the AGC control voltage (AGC-contr.).
4. Store control voltage value for fixed gain.
If adjustment is not possible, the default gain value is output and
the serial actual value interface is blocked for XCS. The bar pattern
(250 kHz) is output and the error is displayed by LEDs (see service
instructions).
Gamma correction
For adjustment of the gamma correction, the kc/D3 switches the
test sawtooth to the video amplifier input via the MUX. The following
sequence of operations takes place:
