Checking the Error Logs

Important
You must use the Checking the Error Logs procedure in Diagnostic Tests for the KODAK DIRECTVIEW CR 825/850
Systems, DG4825-1.
[1] Do the Checking the Error Logs procedure.

Important
If you see more than one error code of the same component or assembly, you might have to install new parts or do
adjustments during this procedure.
[2] Do an evaluation of the error logs.
[3] Continue with Checking the Scan Operation.

Removing Images from the System

Note
If there are undelivered images, request the images from the Key Operator.
[1] Verify that all images have been delivered.
[2] Notify the Key Operator that you must delete all images and patient records.
[3] From the Main Menu, select:
• Key Operator Functions
• Manage Patient Exam Records
• Delete All Patients
• Yes at the message prompt
• Yes at the next message prompt
• OK at the next message prompt
[4] Select Find Local to verify that the deletion is complete. The message “No Matches Found” indicates that tall
images and patient records were deleted.
[5] Continue with Checking the Scan Operation.

Checking the Scan Operation

6 Revision B – PM4825-1
Checking the CMOS Battery
[1] Check the age of the CMOS battery by reading the replacement date on the label located on the PC. Replace
the battery if it is 5 or more years old.
[2] If there is no date label indicating the last time the CMOS battery was replaced, determine the approximate age
of the CMOS battery by referring to the manufacture date on the data plate of the CR Scanner and to the
following table of computer implementation dates:
Computer Console Model Implementation Date
8187-Q9U 2004-11 (November 2004)
8187-SEU 2005-03 (March 2005)
8212 2006-04 (April 2006)

HP 5700 2008-12 (December 2008)
HP 5800 2012-09 (September 2012)

[3] If the battery is less than 5 years old, attach a label to the computer console, and write the manufacture date
found on the data plate of the CR Scanner or the implementation date listed in the previous table, whichever is
more recent.

Note
Attach the label in a discreet place, but where the FE is likely to see it during the next PM visit.
[4] Replace the CMOS battery if it is 5 or more years old. Add a label to the PC with the replacement date. See:
Publication Section Procedure
Adjustments and Replacements for the KODAK Replacements CMOS Battery

The LEDs A, B, C, and D will turn on for several seconds depending on the battery charge level.

Note
If the batteries are in good condition, all of the LEDs turn on. If they are not all on, consider replacing the batteries
even if the Replace Battery LED doesn’t blink. See publication 8H9517.

Checking the Adjustments

Important
You must use the procedures in the Adjustments and Replacements for the KODAK DIRECTVIEW CR 825/850
Systems, AR4825-1, to do the adjustments.
[1] Do:
• fold mirror
• collector assembly
• CAM sensor board A8
• CAM motor assembly
• sled CAM follower
• clamp bar
• cassette end stop
• rear cassette sensor
• extraction bar home position
• plate positioning assembly
• right and left plush assembly - alignment
• left plush assembly - vertical position
• internal bar code reader
• cassette load cradle
• intermediate plate (only if required after the cassette handling adjustment)

 Important
Check to see if the cassette is opened/scanned/closed/ejected correctly. Perform any necessary adjustments/
replacements. The items in this list interact and need to work properly.
[2] Continue with Checking the Operation.

PM4825-1 – Revision B 21
Preventive Maintenance

Checking the Operation

Before doing the calibration, do the following:
[1] Make a flat field exposure of a good plate for 35 x 43 and 24 x 30 mammography cassette (if available), the
same procedure as a calibration.
[2] Scan the plate.
[3] Adjust the image to a window width (WW) of approximately 500 and a window level (W/L) approximately the EI
value.
The resulting flat image should be visible. The EI should be approximately 3300 (GP/PQ) or 3000 (EHR/SNP).

Note
If you experience:
• vertical lines: check the laser opening on the collector for fibers present.
• blurred vertical bands: check fold mirror for oxidation (only for silver mirrors)
Do not calibrate if you observe vertical lines. First, resolve the problem by cleaning the collector aperture. If
horizontal artifacts appear, these are due to plate transport problems and cannot be resolved with a calibration.
