ATTENTION
LES APPAREILS A RAYONS X SONT DANGEREUX A LA FOIS POUR LE PATIENT ET POUR LE MANIPULATEUR
SI LES MESURES DE PROTECTION NE SONT PAS STRICTEMENT APPLIQUEES
Bien que cet appareil soit construit selon les normes de sécurité les plus severes, la source de rayonnement X
représente un danger lorsque le manipulateur est non qualifié ou non averti. Une exposition excessive au rayonnement
X entraîne des dommages a l’organisme. Par conséquent, toutes les précautions doivent être prises pour éviter que les
personnes non autorisées ou non qualifées utilisent cet appareil créant ainsi un danger pour les autres et pour elles-
mêmes. Avant chaque manipulation, les personnes qualifiées et autorisées à se servir de cet appareil doivent se
renseigner sur les mesures de protection etablies par la Commission Internationale sur la Protection Radiologique,
Annales 26: Recommandations de la Commission Internationale sure la Protection Radiologique et les normes
nationales en vigueur.

WARNING
X-RAY EQUIPMENT IS DANGEROUS TO BOTH PATIENT AND OPERATOR UNLESS MEASURES OF
PROTECTION ARE STRICTLY OBSERVED.
Though this equipment is built to the highest standards of electrical and mechanical safety, the useful x-ray beam
becomes a source of danger in the hands of the unauthorized or unqualified operator. Excessive exposure to x-radiation
causes damage to human tissue.
Therefore, adequate precautions must be taken to prevent unauthorized or unqualified persons from operating this
equipment or exposing themselves or others to its radiation.
Before operation, persons qualified and authorized to operate this equipment should be familiar with the
Recommendations of the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP), contained in Annals Number 26
of the ICRP, and with applicable national standards.

ATENCION
LOS APARATOS DE RAYOS X SON PELIGROSOS PARA EL PACIENTE Y EL MANIPULADOR CUANDO LAS
NORMAS DE PROTECCION NO ESTAN OBSERVADAS
Aunque este aparato está construido según las normas de seguridad más estrictas, la radiacion X constituye un peligro
al ser manipulado por personas no autorizadas o incompetentes. Una explosicion excesiva a la radiación X puede
causar daños al organismo.
Por consiguiente, se deberán tomar todas las precauciones necesarias para evitar que las personas incompetentes o
no autorizadas utilicen este aparato, lo que seria un peligro para los demás y para si mismas.
Antes de efectuar las manipulaciones, las personas habilitadas y competentes en el uso de este aparato, deberán
informarse sobre las normas de protección fijadas por la Comisión Internacional de la Protección Radiológica, Anales
No 26: Recomendaciones de la Comisión Internacional sobre la Protección Radiológica y normas nacionales.

ACHTUNG
RÖNTGENAPPARATE SIND EINE GEFAHR FUR PATIENTEN SOWIE BEDIENUNGSPERSONAL, WENN DIE
GELTENDEN SICHERHEITSVORKEHRUNGEN NICHT GENAU BEACHTET WERDEN
Dieser Apparat entspricht in seiner Bauweise strengsten elektrischen und mechanischen Sichereitsnormen, doch in den
Händen unbefugter oder unqualifizierter Personen wird er zu einer Gefahrenquelle.
Übermäßige Röntgenbestrahlung ist für den menschlichen Organismus schädlish.
Deswegen sind hinreichende Vorsichtsmaßnahmen erforderlich, um zu verhindern, daßunbefugte oder unqualifizierte
Personen solche Geräte bedienen oder sich selbst und andere Personen deren Bestrahlung aussetzen können.
Vor Inbetriebnahme dieses Apparats solite sich das qualifizierte und befugte Bedienungspersonal mit den geltenden
Kriterien für den gefahrlosen Strahleneinsatz durch sorgfältiges Studium des Hefts Nr. 26 der Internationalen
Kommission für Strahlenschutz (ICRP) vertraut machen: Empfehlungen der Internationalen Kommission für
Strahlenschutz und anderer nationaler Normenbehörden.

Preface Publication Conventions


Standardized conventions for representing information is a uniform way of communicating
information to a reader in a consistent manner. Conventions are used so that the reader can easily
recognize the actions or decisions that must be made. There are a number of character and
paragraph styles used in this publication to accomplish this task. Please become familiar with them
before proceeding forward.
It is important that you read and understand hazard statements, and not just ignore them.

Safety & Hazard Information


Proper product safety labeling allows a person to safely use or service a product. The format and
style for safety communications reflected in this publication represents the harmonization of IEC/
ISO 3864 and ANSI Z535 standards.
Within this publication, different paragraph and character styles are used to indicated potential
hazards. Paragraph prefixes, such as hazard, caution, danger and warning, are used to identify
important safety information. Text (Hazard) styles are applied to the paragraph contents that are
applicable to each specific safety statement.

Hazard Messages
Any action that will, could or potentially cause personal injury will be preceded by the safety alert
symbol and an appropriate signal word. The safety alert symbol is the triangle with an exclamation
mark within it. It Is always used next to the signal word to indicate the severity of the hazard.
Together, they are used to indicate a hazard exists.
Signal words describe the severity of possible human injures that may be encountered. The alert
symbol and signal word are placed immediately before any paragraph they affect. Safety
information includes:
1.) Signal Word - The seriousness level of the hazard.
2.) Symbol or Pictorial - The consequence of interaction with the hazard.
3.) Word Message:
a.) The nature of the hazard (i.e. the type of hazard)
b.) How to avoid the hazard.
The safety alert symbol is not used when an action can only cause equipment damage.

Text Format of Signal Words


DANGER - INDICATES AN IMMINENTLY HAZARDOUS SITUATION WHICH, IF
NOT AVOIDED, WILL RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY. THIS SIGNAL
WORD IS LIMITED TO THE MOST EXTREME SITUATIONS.
WARNING - INDICATES A POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS SITUATION WHICH, IF NOT
AVOIDED, COULD RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.
Caution - Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in
minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices.
NOTICE - Indicates information or a company policy that relates directly or indirectly to the
safety of personnel or protection of property. This signal word is associated directly with a
hazard or hazardous situation and is used in place of 'DANGER,' 'WARNING,' or 'CAUTION.'
It can include:

Publication Conventions
General Paragraph and Character Styles
Prefixes are used to highlight important non-safety related information. Paragraph prefixes (such
as Purpose, Example, Comment or Note) are used to identify important but non-safety related
information. Text styles are also applied to text within each paragraph modified by the specific
prefix.

EXAMPLES OF PREFIXES USED FOR GENERAL INFORMATION:


Purpose: Introduces and provides meaning as to the information contained within the chapter,
section or subsection (such as used at the beginning this chapter, for example).
Note: Conveys information that should be considered important to the reader.
Example: Used to make the reader aware that the paragraph(s) that follow are examples of information
possibly stated previously.
Comment: Represents “additional” information that may or may not be relevant to your situation.

Computer Screen Output/Input Text Character Styles


Within this publication, mono-spaced character styles (fonts) are used to indicate computer text
that’s either screen input and output. Mono-spaced fonts, such courier, are used to indicated text
direction. When you type at your keyboard, you are generating computer input. Occasionally you
will see the math operator “greater-than” and “less-than” symbols used to indicate the start and
finish of variable output. When reading text generated by the computer, you are reading it as
computer generated output. In addition to direction, characters are italicized (e.g. italics) to indicate
information specific to your system or site.
Example: Fixed This paragraph’s font represents computer generated screen “fixed” output.
Output Its output is fixed from the sense that it does not vary from application
to application. It is the most commonly used style used to indicate
filenames, paths and text that do not change from system to system. The
character style used is a fixed width such as courier.
Example: This paragraph’s font represents computer screen output that is
Variable Output “variable”. It is used to represent output that varies from application
to application or system to system. Variable output is sometimes found
placed between greater-than and less-than operators for clarification. For
example: <variable_ouput> or <3.45.120.3>. In both cases, the < and >
operators are not part of the actual input.
Example: Fixed This paragraph’s font represents fixed input. It is computer input that
Input is typed-in via the keyboard. Typed input that does not vary from
application to application or system to system. Fixed text the user is
required to supply as input. For example: cd /usr/3p
Example: This paragraph’s font represents computer input that can vary from
Variable Input application to application or system to system. With variable text, the
user is required to supply system dependent input or information. Variable
input sometimes is placed between greater-than and less-than operators.
For example: <variable_input>. In these cases, the (<>) operators would
be dropped prior to input. For example: ypcat hosts | grep <3.45.120.3>
would be typed into the computer as:
ypcat hosts | grep 3.45.120.3
without the greater-than and less-than operators.

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: Hard A power switch ON/OFF or a keyboard key like ENTER is indicated by applying a character style
Keys that uses both over and under-lined bold text that is bold. This is a hard key.
Example: Soft Whereas the computer MENU button that you would click with your mouse or touch with your hand
Keys uses over and under-lined regular text. This is a soft key.

Section 1.3 Electrostatic discharge (ESD)


A sudden discharge of static electricity from your finger or other conductor can destroy static
sensitive devices or microcircuitry. Often the spark is neither felt nor heard, but damage occurs. An
electronic device exposed to electrostatic discharge (ESD) might not appear to be affected at all
and can work perfectly throughout a normal cycle. The device can function normally for a while, but
it has been degraded in the internal layers, reducing its life expectancy.
Networks built into many integrated circuits provide some protection, but in many cases, the
discharge contains enough power to alter device parameters or melt silicon junctions.

1.3.1 Important ESD considerations when working on a mobile system

Static Discharge Risk to Components


If you are using a static mat or wrist strap, be sure to connect the mat and strap to machine ground,
not earth ground. This is necessary to isolate yourself from earth ground and equalize your potential
with the machine.

ESD damage prevention includes these steps:


1. Perform LOTO.
2. Verify that the AC plug is not connected to an energy source/outlet.
3. Connect ground mat and wrist strap assembly to frame connection point of the mobile unit.

1.3.2 Generating static


The following table shows that different activities generate different amounts of static electricity, and
that static electricity increases as humidity decreases.

Table 1-2

Relative humidity
Event
55% 40% 10%
Walking across carpet 7,500 V 15,000 V 35,000 V
Walking across vinyl floor 3,000 V 5,000 V 12,000 V
Motions of bench worker 400 V 800 V 6,000 V
Removing bubble pack from PCB 7,000 V 20,000 V 26,500 V
Packing PCBs in foam-lined box 5,000 V 11,000 V 21,000 V

Many electronic components are sensitive to ESD. Circuitry design and structure determine the
degree of sensitivity. The following packaging and grounding precautions are necessary to prevent
damage to electric components and accessories.
• Transport products in static-safe containers to avoid hand contact.

Page 32 Section 1.3 Electrostatic discharge (ESD)


GE HEALTHCARE OPTIMA XR200AMX/XR220AMX ADVANCED SYSTEM MANUAL
REVISION 21 GE CONFIDENTIAL DIRECTION 5336124-1EN

• Protect all electrostatic parts and assemblies with conductive or approved containers or
packaging.
• Keep electrostatic sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free stations.
• Place items on a grounded surface before removing them from their container.
• When handling or touching a sensitive component or assembly, ground yourself by touching
the chassis.
• Avoid contact with pins, leads, or circuitry.
• Place reusable electrostatic-sensitive parts from assemblies in protective packaging or
conductive foam.

1.3.3 Personal grounding methods and equipment

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD


This section defines a workzone that is not connected to the system under service. The mobile
system is a battery powered unit that can deliver lethal current. Ensure you are not providing an
earth ground path when practicing ESD procedures.

Use the following equipment to prevent static electricity damage to equipment:


• Wrist straps are flexible straps with a maximum of one-megohm +/- 10% resistance in the
ground cords. To provide a proper ground, wear the strap against bare skin. The ground cord
must connect snugly into the banana plug connector on the grounding mat or workstation.
• Heel, toe, and boot straps can be used at standing workstations and are compatible with most
types of shoes or boots. On conductive floors or dissipative floor mats, use them on both feet
with a maximum of one-megohm +/- 10% resistance between the operator and ground.

1.3.3.1 Static shielding protection levels

Method Voltage
Antistatic plastic 1,500
Carbon-loaded plastic 7,500
Metalized laminate 15,000

1.3.4 Grounding the work area

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD


This section defines a workzone that is not connected to the system under service. The mobile
system is a battery powered unit that can deliver lethal current. Ensure you are not providing an
earth ground path when practicing ESD procedures.

To prevent static damage of components and parts in the work area:

Chapter 1 Safety / Before You Begin Page 33


GE HEALTHCARE OPTIMA XR200AMX/XR220AMX ADVANCED SYSTEM MANUAL
REVISION 21 GE CONFIDENTIAL DIRECTION 5336124-1EN

• Cover the work surface with approved static-dissipative material. Provide a wrist strap
connected to the work surface and properly grounded tools and equipment.
• Use static-dissipative mats, foot straps, or air ionizers to give added protection.
• Handle electrostatic sensitive components, parts, and assemblies by case or PCB laminate.
• Handle components only at static-free work areas.
• Turn off power and input signals before inserting and removing connectors or test equipment.
• Use static-safe fixtures when fixtures must directly contact dissipative surfaces.
• Keep work area free of non-conductive materials, like plastic assembly aids and Styrofoam.

1.3.5 Recommended materials and equipment

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD


This section defines a workzone that is not connected to the system under service. The mobile
system is a battery powered unit that can deliver lethal current. Ensure you are not providing an
earth ground path when practicing ESD procedures.

Materials and equipment that are recommended for use in preventing static electricity include:
• Anti-static tape, smocks, aprons, or sleeve protectors
• Conductive bins, foam, tabletop workstations with ground cord of one-megohm +/-10%
resistance, and other assembly or soldering aids
• Static-dissipative table or floor mats with hard tie to ground
• ESD field service kits
• Static awareness labels
• Wrist straps and footwear straps providing one-megohm +/-10% resistance

Chapter 3 System data and software

Section 3.1 Backing up system data


This section describes the process to save system files, so that there is a valid backup available if
the system software ever needs to be reloaded or upgraded.

You will need the external CD/DVD drive and a blank media disk (CD-R or DVD-R format), or a USB
drive (i.e. memory stick: It is recommended that you obtain a Sandisk Cruzer 4Gb (GE Part Number
5423551, labeled Daily Use).

The backup takes about ten minutes to complete, but depends upon the amount of data that must
be saved. For example, if multiple detectors are registered to the system (Optima XR220amx and
Optima XR200amx with digital upgrade only), there are more calibration files that must be saved,
resulting in longer backup times.

3.1.1 What is included in a system backup?


During a system back up, the following data is saved:
• Calibration files
• Configuration files
However, the following data is not saved by system backup:
• Image data: Use a separate process for archiving image data. See the Optima XR200amx
Operator Manual or Optima XR220amx Operator Manual for instructions.
• Procedure protocols: Save the protocol database only if you have made changes to the default
values. Default values are always loaded during a software installation. The default protocol
database is included with each shipped system. See the Optima XR200amx Operator Manual
or Optima XR220amx Operator Manual for instructions on saving the protocol database.
• RRA report, DEI report, and Dose report data.

3.1.2 Performing a system backup

1. On the Applications desktop, press the UTILITIES button.


2. On the Utilities desktop, press LAUNCH.
3. On the SUIF Service Home tab, select the UTILITIES tab.
4. In the left navigation frame, expand the SYSTEM folder.
5. Press the BACKUP link.
6. Select the backup media by selecting CD/DVD or USB.
7. Connect the external CD/DVD drive to the USB ports (2 USB port connections required) and
insert supported media (CD-R or DVD -R), or connect a USB drive.
8. Press START.
The status bar displays a series of messages: “Starting BACKUP,” “BACKUP successful,” and
“Backup has completed successfully.” The backup takes about one minute, after which the
right frame displays “SYSTEM BACKUP SUCCESS.”

POTENTIAL FOR DATA LOSS


Before installing, upgrading, or restoring system software, be sure to archive all protocols and
patient files, and back up calibration and configuration data if possible. Installing software can
destroy existing files, including patient, calibration, and configuration files. Avoid reconfiguring and
recalibrating the system, and ensure data protection, by periodically performing a system backup.
Always perform a system backup before performing a system software load or upgrade.

Chapter 5 Calibration

Section 5.1 Preparing for calibrations


This chapter explains how to calibrate the detector, printer, touchscreen, drive subsystem, and
elements of the generator. It also covers how to determine the appropriate burn configuration for
PACS images.

FOLLOW PROCEDURES
Important! Perform the calibrations in the order shown in the left frame of the Calibration screen
on the Service User Interface (SUIF).
While working in the SUIF, watch the status bar and wait for activities to complete before starting
the next step. Look for messages like "Ready..." or "Ready for input."

5.1.1 Saving changes


After changing, creating, or restoring calibration files, be sure to reboot the system so that the
application software can detect the file changes.
After completing the steps in this chapter, save the changes by performing a system backup. See

Section 5.3 Generator calibration


5.3.1 Setting filament drive level

EXPOSURE TO RADIATION
Employ X-ray safety practices to minimize exposure to radiation. Use portable shields or lead
aprons. Aim the tube away from personnel. Adjust both lateral and transverse collimator blades to
the minimum field size setting.

NO DETECTOR IN BEAM DURING CALIBRATION


Make sure there is no digital detector in the X-ray field at any time during this calibration.

This procedure automatically sets the initial filament drive levels for each X-ray tube focal spot.

1. On the Applications desktop, press the UTILITIES button.


2. On the Utilities desktop, press LAUNCH.
3. On the SUIF home page, press the CALIBRATION tab button.
4. On the Calibration page, in the left folder tree, select GENERATOR > FILAMENT DRIVE.

Section 5.4 Detector calibration


Detector calibrations apply only to Optima XR220amx or Optima XR200amx with digital upgrade
systems.
For system operation, detector calibrations are not normally required as the detector contains a set
of calibration files. Calibrations should only be performed if image quality issues warrant updating
bad pixel maps and/or gain calibration files.

IMAGE QUALITY AFFECTED


Detector calibrations must be performed using the tether. Failure to use this process can
result in calibration failures and/or image quality issues.

5.4.1 Executing bad pixel and gain calibrations


Use the Bad Pixel Calibration tool to detect defective pixels. Then use the Gain Calibration Tool to
calibrate a gain coefficient for each pixel to achieve uniform gain across the detector. Perform these
two calibrations in sequence.

Note: DO NOT change the exposure techniques for these calibrations. They are automatically set by the
calibration software and are required for proper calibration.

5.4.1.1 Bad pixel calibration


This procedure calculates defective pixels from dark and X-ray images.
The detector must be connected via tether and stabilized for a minimum of 10 minutes. The 10
minute counter starts when the calibration is initiated.
Be sure that the correct firmware is downloaded to the detector before proceeding.
Bad pixel calibration is a multi-step process, including a QC test exposure and four additional
exposures. The generator technique for each exposure is set automatically by the system.

5.4.1.2 Gain calibration


The bad pixel calibration (see 5.4.1.1 Bad pixel calibration on page 113) must be performed before
starting the gain calibration.
This set of three calibration procedures (one each for 60, 80, and 120 kVp) creates gain maps used
to compensate for gain non-uniformities. The flat field phantom is used only for the 80 and 120 kVp
techniques. The X-ray tube must be positioned at 120 cm SID, full FOV, beam centered on the
detector for this calibration.

- Dose meter with mR or uGy measurement units.

Page 116 Section 5.6 Hardware calibration


GE HEALTHCARE OPTIMA XR200AMX/XR220AMX ADVANCED SYSTEM MANUAL
REVISION 21 GE CONFIDENTIAL DIRECTION 5336124-1EN

5.6.3.2.2 Consumables
- None

5.6.3.2.3 Safety
- Appropriate ionizing radiation PPE

5.6.3.2.4 Required Conditions


- DAP meter is connected.
- DAP meter is enabled in software.
- No DAP related errors in the system error log.
- DAP temperature stabilized to the operating environment.
- Wait 5 minutes after the DAP is connected and energized per the OEM for internal
stabilization before calibration or clinical use.

5.6.3.3 Preface
The purpose of this calibration is to modify the correction factor stored in the DAP device. The DAP
response is dependent upon temperature and atmospheric pressure.
A correction factor of 1 (no correction) is specified by the OEM of sea level elevation @ 20°C (68°F).
The DAP Calibration correction factor (CF) is stored in the DAP itself and not on the system. For
this reason adhere to the following;
- Do not press COMMIT if you are exploring, entering random numbers and making
exposures. This loads interim CF values into the DAP. Assume this value to be bad. By
pressing CANCEL the original DAP resident CF value will be restored.
- Do not return the system to clinical use if the system shuts down in the middle of this
calibration. The DAP will contain an interim CF value. Assume this value to be bad.
Restore the system to proper working order and perform this calibration procedure. Make
sure you press COMMIT to save the correct and valid CF value.
- A result of PASS is presented when the test meter and the DAP reported values have less
than a 10% error.
* At this point you can select COMMIT and the calibration is complete, or you can select
CONTINUE and repeat in the attempt to reduce the PASS Error percentage. Do not
expect to achieve a 0% error result. It is possible but not probable due to the variables
of the X-ray beam and measurement devices.

5.6.3.4 Procedure
Prior to launching the DAP Calibration utility in the SUIF service interface the following set-up
conditions must be followed.

Do not deviate from this instruction or randomly enter values into the DAP calibration utility. Failure
to follow this instruction can result in grossly inaccurate Dose Value reporting during clinical system
usage.

1. Place the imaging receptor on a platform at least 25 cm (10 in) above the floor to reduce back
scatter. The imaging receptor should be parallel to the floor.
2. Make an exposure with the following parameters;

Chapter 5 Calibration Page 117


GE HEALTHCARE OPTIMA XR200AMX/XR220AMX ADVANCED SYSTEM MANUAL
REVISION 21 GE CONFIDENTIAL DIRECTION 5336124-1EN

a. FOV = 10 cm x 10 cm (centered on imaging receptor)


b. SID = 100 cm
c. kV = 70
d. mAs = 100
3. Develop the image as necessary and make measurements accurately recording the FOV X
and Y values (length and width)s
a. For systems with a digital detector use the Image review measure distance tools.
b. For all other imaging media make accurate manual measurements per OEM
recommendations.
c. The acceptable FOV range is as follows;
* X = 80 mm to 120 mm
* Y = 80 mm to 120 mm
d. Make and record these measurements in millimeters. The DAP calibration utility will
accept only metric values.
4. Replace the imaging receptor with the Dose meter probe.
a. Using the field light, place the probe in the center of the FOV at the same plane as the
imaging receptor.

Do not disturb the SID from this point on. Failure to follow this instruction can result in grossly
inaccurate Dose Value reporting during clinical system usage.

5. Launch the DAP calibration utility as follows;

a. On the Applications desktop, press the UTILITIES button.


b. On the Utilities desktop press the Service LAUNCH button.
c. On the SUIF home page press the CALIBRATION tab button.
d. On the calibration page, in the left folder tree, press HARDWARE CALIBRATION.
e. In the left navigation frame press HARDWARE and select DAP CALIBRATION.
6. Follow the On-Screen instructions.

Notes:
- Only valid X and Y values entered in millimeters will be accepted.
- Configure your dose meter to measure in either milli-Roentgen (mR) or micro-Grays
(uGy).
- Select the appropriate unit of measure in the DAP calibration utility and enter the
measured value when prompted.
* A test meter dose reading of approximately 230mR is typical. However, it is
dependent upon the actual FOV, SID, KV, mAs.
* The system will present results in uGy units.

Section 5.7 PACS image tests


PACS image tests apply only to Optima XR220amx or Optima XR200amx with digital upgrade
systems.

Page 118 Section 5.7 PACS image tests


GE HEALTHCARE OPTIMA XR200AMX/XR220AMX ADVANCED SYSTEM MANUAL
REVISION 21 GE CONFIDENTIAL DIRECTION 5336124-1EN

Follow these procedures to test image display characteristics and determine the burn configuration
for PACS images for each destination host.

5.7.1 Comparing PACS test images


In the following tests, use the nine PACS test images to test image display characteristics and
determine image display configuration.
Each PACS test image consists of two aspects:
• On the right, a clinical chest image with image number and GE logo watermark (Figure 5-2).
• On the left, a series of 12 vertical bands. The top six bands are dark and the bottom six are
bright.
Inside each band are five small squares with different intensities (like the 5%/95% squares in
a SMPTE pattern). The squares provide a quantitative way to compare two images.
The pixel data in every test image is identical. Only the DICOM headers, annotations, and window
center (WC) and window width (WW) values are slightly different for each pattern.

Figure 5-2 PACS/image display test image

5.7.2 Determining PACS burn/no-burn configuration

5.7.2.1 Verifying PACS monitor calibration


1. Verify that the PACS monitor is calibrated according to DICOM Standard Part 14. Each site is
responsible for providing evidence of PACS monitor calibration.
2. At the application desktop, press IMAGE TOOLS.
3. Click SMPTE to load the SMPTE pattern into the Patient List.
4. Send the SMPTE pattern to the PACS review workstation
5. Verify that 5% and 95% squares are equally visible on PACS (Figure 5-3).

REVISION 21 GE CONFIDENTIAL DIRECTION 5336124-1EN

Figure 5-3 SMPTE pattern

5.7.2.2 Loading test images


1. Load the PACS test images onto the acquisition workstation. Use either:
- A DICOM-formatted CD-ROM with images.
- Images that are stored on the system in Image Tools.
2. Verify that the patient name is GE_DX_Image_Display_Test, GEHC and the patient ID is
2000002.

5.7.2.3 Sending no-burn images to the PACS


1. In the SUIF, press the UTILITIES tab button.
2. Next to Network Connections, press EDIT.
3. Select the appropriate network host and press EDIT.
4. On the Preferences tab, verify that the following parameter is NOT checked:
Apply Burn-on-Send to images when sending to this network host.
5. In the Images list, highlight PACS Test Image #1.
6. In the Destination icon list, press the appropriate PACS network host.

5.7.2.4 Sending burn-on-send images to the PACS


1. In the SUIF, press the UTILITIES tab button.
2. Next to Network Connections, press EDIT.
3. Select the appropriate network host and press EDIT.

Page 120 Section 5.7 PACS image tests


GE HEALTHCARE OPTIMA XR200AMX/XR220AMX ADVANCED SYSTEM MANUAL
REVISION 21 GE CONFIDENTIAL DIRECTION 5336124-1EN

4. On the Preferences tab, check Apply Burn-on-Send to images when sending to


this network host.
5. In the Images list, highlight PACS Test Image #6.
6. In the Destination icon list, press the appropriate PACS network host.

5.7.2.5 Reviewing images on PACS


1. On the PACS review workstation, display PACS test images #1 and #6. To identify an image,
look in the chest image region for the watermark image number next to the GE logo.
2. Verify that image #1 is displayed with a Value-of-Interest Look-Up Table (VOI-LUT).
3. Verify that image #6 is displayed with a Linear Look-Up Table (Linear LUT).
4. Compare PACS Test Images #1 and #6 and note the following items:
a. The number of distinct bright and dark bands (based on the band intensity)
b. The number of squares visible in each band
Count bands that have distinct gray levels, not simply the number of bands with visible
squares. For example, in Figure 5-4, there are two squares in band #4, three squares in
band #5, and three squares in band #11. There are three distinct dark bands and six
distinct bright bands. This is because the top three dark bands are indistinguishable.

Figure 5-4 Example showing distinct bands and visible squares

- If PACS test images #1 and #6 appear visually identical (with an equal number of bright
and dark bands), the PACS supports VOI-LUT. Configure the PACS as No-Burn for this
host.
- If PACS Test Images #1 and #6 appear visually different (with a different number of bright
and dark bands), or if you can see saturation in the lung or abdomen of the chest region
(saturation appears as a completely flat dark or white area), the PACS does not support
VOI-LUT or applies it incorrectly. Configure the PACS as Burn-on-Send for this host.
5. Repeat sections 5.7.2.3 Sending no-burn images to the PACS and 5.7.2.4 Sending burn-on-
send images to the PACS for each PACS destination host.

5.7.3.2 Verifying DICOM header tags


1. On the PACS review workstation, open PACS test image #1 (Patient ID 2000002).
2. Access the DICOM header information through a drop-down list, a button, or by right-clicking
the image and then selecting an option such as “information,” “i,” or “header.” For help, contact
local IT support.
3. Verify Burn-on-Send mode by verifying that:
a. The WC tag is 0028x1050 and the WW tag is 0028x1051
b. The values are WC=5226\5226\5226 and WW=2654\1990\3981
4. Verify VOI-LUT tags as follows:
a. Search the DICOM header for tag 0028x3010VOILUTSequence.
b. Below that tag, verify that there are three additional tags:
* 0028x3002LUTDescriptor
* 0028x3003LUTExplanation
* 0028x3006LUTData
c. Verify that each VOILUTSequence has a LUTExplanation set to either Normal, Harder,
or Softer.
5. Record the results in Table 5-4.
6. Open PACS test image #6 and view the DICOM header.
7. Verify No-Burn mode by ensuring that:
a. The WC tag is 0028x1050 and the WW tag is 0028x1051
b. The values are WC=8192\8192\8192 and WW=16383\12288\24575
8. Verify VOI-LUT tags as follows:
a. Search the DICOM header for tag 0028x3010VOILUTSequence.
b. No VOILUTSequence tag should be present. If a VOILUTSequence is present, the image
was not sent correctly. Resend the image as Burn-on-Send.
9. Record the results in Table 5-4.

Chapter 5 Calibration Page 123


GE HEALTHCARE OPTIMA XR200AMX/XR220AMX ADVANCED SYSTEM MANUAL
REVISION 21 GE CONFIDENTIAL DIRECTION 5336124-1EN

5.7.3.3 Verifying WC and WW values

No-Burn Mode (PACS Test Image #1)


The DICOM header of each PACS Test Image is always sent with WC/WW=5226/2654. The values
displayed on the PACS may appear differently. This is acceptable according to DICOM standards.
The values can show up as 8192/16384, 5226/2654, or something else. The most common and
preferred implementation is to show values of 8192/16384 on the PACS.
1. Open PACS test image #1.
2. Verify that the WC/WW values are 8192/16384.
If the values do not appear as 8192/16384, check that the VOI-LUT is enabled on the PACS.
The VOI-LUT often can be enabled with a drop-down list on the image or through hanging
protocols.
Note: This does not indicate that the PACS does not support VOI-LUTs. Support for VOI-LUTs
is strictly determined by the visual appearance of PACS test images #1 and #6.
3. Record the results in Table 5-4 (see 5.7.4 PACS image comparison results on page 125).

Burn-on-Send Mode (PACS Test Image #6)


1. Open PACS test image #6.
2. Verify that the WC/WW values are 8192/16384.
If the values do not appear as 8192/16384, check that the VOI-LUT is enabled on the PACS.
The VOI-LUT often can be enabled with a drop-down list on the image or through hanging
protocols.
3. Record the results in Table 5-4 (see 5.7.4 PACS image comparison results on page 125).

5.7.3.4 Checking for image saturation


1. Open PACS test image #1.
2. Check that the clinical chest area appears with no saturation in the lung or abdomen region.
3. Record the results in Table 5-4.

5.7.3.5 Testing reduced dynamic range with Burn-on-Send


The Burn-on-Send configuration causes a reduced dynamic range in the image if you change the
window level of the image on the PACS.
1. Open PACS test image #6.
2. Change the window level on the PACS to attempt to see the five squares in all twelve bands.
Start by changing the WC value to 0 and the WW value to 500 (the appropriate values may
vary among different PACS workstations).
The loss of dynamic range is most common in the top dark band. If reduced dynamic range
occurs, the five squares will not be visible in the top dark band (band #1).
3. Record the results in Table 5-4.

Page 124 Section 5.7 PACS image tests

REVISION 21 GE CONFIDENTIAL DIRECTION 5336124-1EN

5.7.4 PACS image comparison results


Use the values in Table 5-4 to quantitatively compare images. For example, to determine if a PACS
supports GE VOI-LUTs, compare PACS test images #1 and #6. If the number of distinct bands and
visible squares are equal, then the PACS correctly supports VOI-LUTs.

3. Raise the tube arm to approximately 2.5 cm (1 in) from the top of the column. This reduces
spring tension, allowing easier adjustment.
4. Using a 4 mm hex key inserted into the adjustment holes (see Figure 6-2), you can adjust the
spring tension for up to 5 lbs of balance force.
5. Rotating the assembly clockwise reduces the tension on the spring resulting in less buoyancy
of the arm.
6. Rotating the assembly counter-clockwise increases the tension on the spring resulting in more
buoyancy of the arm.
7. Adjust the spring tension such that 80% of the main travel is stable. 10% at the lowest tube
position and 10% of the highest tube position should have minimal to no movement when the
brakes are engaged.
8. Apply thread locker (i.e. Loctite 242 [blue]) to the apron hanger bracket screws. Install the
bracket and tighten the screws.

7.1.4.3 Testing mAs accuracy

7.1.4.3.1 Overview
mAs accuracy is measured using a non-invasive kVp meter and oscilloscope connected to the mA
test point of the generator. Considering a threshold of 75% of the requested kV, the mAs is the
integral of the mA during the exposure time:
The exposure time (pulse width) is the time between when the kV waveform rises above the
threshold and when the kV falls back below the threshold.

For short exposure times (< 15 mSec), it is necessary to accurately measure and calculate the mAs
by integrating the mA and time in defined intervals. (Three are used for this example.)
The integrated values are the sum of the weighted means of the measured time intervals for
the full exposure time.
Mt1+ Mt2 + Mt3 = MT
Where
M = mean of the measured mA
t1, t2, t3 = time interval of the measured mean of mA (Mt1, Mt2, Mt3)
T = total exposure time @ 75% of kVp rise and fall value.
MT * T = mAs

This is simplified by the use of an oscilliscope that supports signal integration. The TDS 3000 family
of scopes provides this function using vertical cursors and gating cursors selections. So a single
measurement can be made for the full exposure defined as T above with a highly accurate result.

Figure 7-2 mA waveform, example 1

For exposures > 15 mSec the waveform stabilizes and the effects of Mt1 and Mt2 become
negligible.

Page 146 Section 7.1 U.S. federally required tests

REVISION 21 GE CONFIDENTIAL DIRECTION 5336124-1EN

Using the cursor gating function find the mean of the entire waveform.

Figure 7-3 mA waveform, example 2

Note: Because of the nature of the design of the high frequency generator, the use of a kV meter to
determine kVp rise time is not necessary. The rise/fall of the kVp waveform has negligible impact
upon the mAs measurement.

7.1.4.3.2 Procedure
1. Connect a CH 1 scope probe to TP5 (signal scale is 100mA = 1V) of the generator and chassis
ground. See Figure 7-4.
Note: TP4 is the mA Anode Negative signal and can be used in place of TP5.

3. Adjust scope settings to display a single waveform.


4. Using the vertical cursor measurement functions, position the cursors on the mA waveform at
75% of the rise/fall for the entire exposure.
5. Using the undisturbed vertical cursor measurement functions, record the mean of the mA

7.1.4.4.3 Procedure
Data collections for each sample set defined in the tables below consist of 10 exposures each.
Each sample of 10 exposures must be completed within 1 hour of start. There are a total of
60 exposures required to complete this section.
1. Position the dose probe 30 cm above the floor to limit scatter effects.
2. Position the tube above the probe at a SID of 100 cm.
3. Collimate the beam to slightly larger than the dose probe active sensor.
4. Select the kV and mAs starting with Sample A in Table 7-15.

Table 7-15 kV and mAs values for reproducibility tests - 15kW and 30kW generator

Selected kV Selected mAs


Sample A 80 32
SID = 100 cm
Sample B 80 40
SID = 100 cm

5. Measure the exposure in uGy for each of the 10 exposures. Each sample of 10 exposures
must be completed within 1 hour of start.
After each exposure, recycle the technique (switch to other values and then return them to the
original values). Also vary the time between exposures to capture any filament heating
variations.
6. Measure and record the values in Table 7-16.

Table 7-16 Measured uGy values

7. Repeat this process of 10 exposures with Sample B, using the correct techniques as given in
Table 7-15.
8. Verify that the reproducibility (Coefficient of Variation) for samples A and B is < 0.045 as
calculated.
Calculation:
[CV] = the Coefficient of Variation = [Std Dev] / [Average Mean]
[Std Dev] = the standard deviation of 10 samples [Sample A - exposures 1 through
10]
[Average Mean] = the average of 10 samples [Sample A - exposures 1 through 10]
Sample A: ______________
Sample B: ______________

• 3 mm lead to block the primary beam


• Metric tape measure

7.3.2.2 Consumables
• None

7.3.2.3 Safety
• Appropriate ionizing radiation PPE

7.3.3 Purpose
The purpose of this section is to provide guidance and definition for those that wish to perform a
radiation leakage test of the X-ray tube/collimator assembly (also known as "source assembly").

Per the technical data sheet, the Leakage Technique Factor is 150 kV, 0.4 mA.
This is used by Canon for their bench testing.
The technique for this mobile system is 125 kV, 250 mAs.
The details as to why and how are explicitly defined at the end of this section.

This content applies to the Optima XR220amx, Optima XR200amx, Optima XR200 with Digital
Upgrade, and the Brivo XR285amx products.

7.3.4 Common Errors:


• The most common error identified is incorrect meter settings. Many test meters have the ability
to perform what they define as “Dose Rate”, “Dose Accumulate” or some similar verbiage
measurements. However, these settings are not applicable to our system as described above.
Ensure your test meter is configured for a single measurement and zeroed as
applicable. Reset the meter for each subsequent exposure.
• Another common error is poor positioning of the probe. Care should be taken to ensure the
probe is positioned perpendicular to the focal spot at a 1 meter distance. See Figure 7-1.
• Ensure the collimator blades are closed and block the collimator port with at least 10 HVL
equivalence of lead (3 mm or more) to block the primary beam limiting scatter radiation noise
in the readings. See Figure 7-1.
• Ensure your units of measure conversions are correct.

7.3.5 X-Ray Tube Leakage Radiation Requirement:


Tube Leakage Radiation < 0.88 mGy/hr at 1m from focal spot (125 kV, 250 mAs)
GE Rejection limit < 0.80 mGy/hr at 1m from focal spot (125kV, 250mAs)

This rating is applicable at the Long-Term Maximum Input Power rating. Multiply the measured
leakage of each 125 kV, 250 mAs exposure (in mGy) by 6.9 to determine the leakage radiation of
each exposure at this power level.
Repeat measurements as needed, one exposure at different locations, each at 1 meter from the
focal spot. See Figure 7-1 and Figure 7-2. It is also recommended that 520 seconds between
exposures is observed for tube thermal considerations. These readings are not cumulative.

Page 176 Section 7.3 Tube Radiation Leakage Test - Optional


GE HEALTHCARE OPTIMA XR200AMX/XR220AMX ADVANCED SYSTEM MANUAL
REVISION 21 GE CONFIDENTIAL DIRECTION 5336124-1EN

The integration value (IV/hr) is determined with the following formula;

(3600 sec/hour) x Continuous mA / desired mAs = Integration Value (IV)/hr


(3600 sec/hour) x 0.48 mA / 250 mAs = 6.912 / hr

Calculate the Leakage reading by the following formula;

Integrated Leakage Reading = Measured dose x IV/hr


Integrated Leakage Reading = Measured dose x 6.9

Figure 7-1 illustrates the positioning of the test tool (ionization chamber) in 2 dimensions only.
Ensure the ionization chamber is perpendicular to the source in each dimension for accurate
readings. The testing parameters per 21CFR 1020.30 define that this test should be performed in
“1 meter in any direction from the source” (3 dimensionally). Also stated is the following;
“Compliance shall be determined by measurements averaged over an area of 100 square cm with
no linear dimension greater than 20 cm.” This statement defines the maximum size of the Ionization
Chamber that should be used.
Figure 7-2 illustrates the approximate position of the Canon Rotanode™ E7894X X-ray Tube
assembly utilized with these defined products.

Background:
The Optima XR220amx, Optima XR200amx, Optima XR200amx with Digital Upgrade, and the
Brivo XR285amx products are battery operated systems and not capacitive discharge or field
emission systems. Therefore, per regulatory requirements (21CFR 1020.30 being the most
stringent), we fall under the “For all other diagnostic source assemblies” category.

Per 21CFR, the leakage radiation from the diagnostic source assembly shall not exceed 0.88 mGy
air kerma in 1 hour. In our system, we are not capable of performing continuous exposures for this
time frame. Therefore, an integrated leakage reading would be desired. However, the system
design is such that independent mA and time control is not possible. It is a two point system
interface design. Additionally, most exposures are sub-second in length approaching the test
meters capabilities.

The maximum rated tube potential is 125 kVp for the following products;
- Optima XR220amx
- Optima XR200amx
- Optima XR200amx with Digital upgrade
- Brivo XR285amx
The maximum continuous tube current is defined by the “continuous anode input power” found in
the tube technical data sheet. Per Canon, for the E7894X tube, the average anode power is 60
watts. Knowing the average anode power is 60 W and the max kVp is 125, we then get;
60 W / 125 kVp = 0.48 mA continuous

Page 178 Section 7.3 Tube Radiation Leakage Test - Optional


GE HEALTHCARE OPTIMA XR200AMX/XR220AMX ADVANCED SYSTEM MANUAL
REVISION 21 GE CONFIDENTIAL DIRECTION 5336124-1EN

For testing purposes, a radiographic exposure is used and the leakage measured for that exposure.
The technique used for measurement is a rad exposure of 125 kVp, 250 mAs.
The actual values for the 30 kW systems are 125 kVp at ~77.01 mA and ~ 3.246 seconds.
The actual values for the 15 kW systems are 125 kVp at ~64.39 mA and ~3.883 seconds.
Using these actual values the duty cycle (IV/hr) becomes 6.9 exposures per hour.

The exact mA and time used to get 250 mAs on a 30 kW versus the 15 kW systems may be
different, but the mAs ratio relative to continuous 0.48 mA at 125 kVp calculate to be the same.

5. To get further detail on the test, click on ‘Detailed Result.’ Once Detailed result is clicked, a
window opens with test log displayed.

Figure 8-2 Detailed result window with Failed test information

Note: This window should only be used to get information on the tests being run. Results on this window
could mislead tester, since it only shows result for the ‘last executed’ Batch / Test.

6. Once the result is checked, close this window to return to the test view. To export the results
to an excel file click on Export to Excel button. Once clicked, it will open Excel file with Results
summary as shown below:

Figure 8-3 Excel Sheet with Results summary

Note: User may save this excel to a directory of choice. Also, note that the Excel file records the SSO ID
and Service Record ID recorded in the Main View.
7. The Logs for the test session, with information in the Detailed result window is captured in the
below directories:
a. Blue Spyder: C:\goepel\CAS4WIN4.6\Uuts\SPYDER 7350002\RESULTS
b. Red Spyder: C:\goepel\CAS4WIN4.6\Uuts\SPYDER 5350002\RESULTS
With file names captured in cap file extension. For Ex:
MANDATORY_GE67891_201801101356.CAP file is the one generated for the Mandatory tests.
The Test file naming template is <Button_Name>_<Service_Id>_<Date_Time_Stamp>.CAP
Note:
The log files are created as per the Buttons selected. In this workflow, there would be 2 log files
generated; one for ‘Mandatory Tests’ and the other for ‘ALL’. If the tester needs even the Mandatory
tests in the Excel, then Export to Excel must be done prior to running All Tests.

8.1.2 Tips and Tricks Tips


1. Always run only one instance of the BScan Service Tool. One of the libraries used by the tool
is a third party proprietary software, that allows only a single instance to be running at a given
point of time.
2. Remove the USB cable from either the Spyder or the PC when the system is rebooted.
3. Please provide feedback on tool operation and areas of improvement.
4. For any other Install related queries or technical support contact OLC.

Djinn Beetle Wiring Diagram

8.2.1 Introduction
The Djinn Beetle generator is the X-ray generation subsystem used in XR285amx / XR200amx /
XR220amx systems. It is a bootable subsystem with 2 way CANOpen communication to the
system. Logic power is a 48V DC input from the system’s LVLE2. Battery stack voltage is also input
to the generator.

8.2.2.3 Testing a System after a Generator Component Change


In situations dealing with intermittent generator issues, additional testing may be desired to build
confidence that the repair solved the issue. In addition to the Finalization Tasks listed for the FRU
replacement procedure in the System Service Manuals, some optional use (stress) testing may
help flush out intermittent issues.
a. Charge the system if needed.
b. Unplug the system.
c. Attempt to confirm that the issues are no longer present, check all functionality.

Page 198 Section 8.2 Djinn Generator Troubleshooting Guide

REVISION 21 GE CONFIDENTIAL DIRECTION 5336124-1EN

i. Turn on the collimator lamp.


ii. Drive the system.
iii. Power cycle the system.
iv. Take several high power exposures (125kVp, 25 or 125 mAs), see that no errors
occur.
v. Repeat customer exposures that triggered the issue (if applicable).
d. If no errors appear during the high power exposures, and the issue can no longer be
reproduced the fix was successful.

8.2.3 In-Depth Djinn Beetle generator description


In a XR285amx / XR200amx / XR220amx system, the 15kW Djinn Beetle generator subsystem
consists of 3 main generator modules; the Power Module, the HV Tank and the Main Auxiliary
Module. An additional 30kW Auxiliary Module can be added to the system to increase the capacity
of the generator subsystem.

Location of generator parts is described in the following picture for 30kW generator. For 15kW Djinn
generator, 30kW Auxiliary Module is removed from the system and locations of other parts are still
the same.

8.2.4 Specific Error Code Handling and Actions


Error Code Structure
Generator errors can be broken up into two categories; system reported (generic) generator errors
and errors reported directly from the generator.This is a very important distinction when
troubleshooting as a system reported generator error may not always be a generator error at all.
Indeed, issues due to battery or to tube will create generator errors.

The information given by the error code and its description text includes that following:
• Description: it describes briefly the error detected in Generator.
• Data: it shows detailed information over the state of the generator when the error occurred. It
is composed by 5 fields: data content (i.e. HV Tank temperature), data description (i.e.
temperature), data value (i.e. type float with 2 decimal parts), data gain (i.e. multiplication by
10) and data unit (i.e. mA).
• Precise description: it shows additional information of the error. It defines the description of
the error in detail with their database value.
• Error class: there are three classes of errors that correspond to different levels of impact to
the system.

A Djinn inhibit error will abort the ongoing x-ray exposure, and go to an error state until the cause
of error disappeared.
A Djinn abort error will abort the ongoing x-ray exposure and immediately go back to a standby
state (i.e. tube arc).
A Djinn warning is only the information. The Generator will not abort the ongoing x-ray exposure
and it will not go back to a standby state (i.e. input voltage slightly out of range).
Note: Some columns of error logs shown in the document are removed for clarity and BRIVO
system has a different error log than an Optima system.

8.3.1 Detector Overview

8.3.1.1 Detector Components


• The detector contains a panel consisting of a two-dimensional pixel array. It converts a two-
dimensional X-ray image to a two dimensional array of electrical signals with each value
providing a representation of the amount of X-ray accumulated in the respective area since last
read.
• The panel support provides an assembly medium and heat isolation between the panel from
the motherboard as well as heat spreading. It also provides a cushioned support between the
glass panel array/motherboard and detector case via shock mounts to reduce the possibility
of shock acting on the panel.
• The detector case protects inside components against loading, drop, impact, patient body
fluid, cleaning agents etc. It also provides shielding for EMC and EMI.
• The motherboard together with the firmware and software controls detector operation including
system initialization, image acquisition, data communication, power management,
diagnostics, environmental monitoring etc. It also provides regulated voltage to panel, scan
modules, and data modules.
• Data modules read out the signals stored in pixels along each column of the two-dimensional
pixel array on the panel in parallel.
• Scan modules select the row or rows of the pixel array to be read by the data modules.
• The power supply and management are accomplished with a switching regulation board
(SRB). The SRB provides motherboard-required voltages from a battery or an external input
voltage. It is also responsible for managing battery charging and monitoring.
• The battery provides power while detector is in Wireless applications.
• The docking mechanism provides GbEthernet link and both charging power and input power
when detector is in the table tray or wall stand.
• The mobile storage bin provides only battery charging power.

8.3.1.3 Communication Methods


The user will be allowed to configure the method of communicating between the detector and the
host pc using one of three different technologies:
• GbEthernet (gigabit cable connection)
• Tether (megabit cable connection)
• Wireless UWB (ultra wide band, no cable connection, requires battery in detector)

During start up, the system searches for the detector in priority of GbEthernet, Tether, then
Wireless. The block diagram indicates this priority. See Figure 8-14.

The detector will communicate with the host pc using only ONE method at one time. The detector
can be used with compatible mobile, fixed RAD, and Fluoro systems and employ combinations of
these three communication technologies.

8.3.1.4 Detector Modes of Operation


The detector operational states are defined below:
• Power-off - The detector is completely powered down.
• Sleep - The detector is in a power saving mode.
• Charging - The detector is charging battery in storage bin.
• Idle - The detector is idle and waiting for exam command.
• Standby - The detector is ready for imaging.

Chapter 8 Troubleshooting Page 213


GE HEALTHCARE OPTIMA XR200AMX/XR220AMX ADVANCED SYSTEM MANUAL
REVISION 21 GE CONFIDENTIAL DIRECTION 5336124-1EN

• Imaging - The detector is acquiring images.

8.3.1.5 Detector LEDs and Indicators


The detector has four LEDs on board to indicate various conditions of operation. The LEDs can
display Green, Red, Yellow, or can be Dark. See Figure 8-15.

Detector Status LED


Wireless LED

Wakeup Button

Battery LED 1

Battery LED 2

Figure 8-15

Wireless LED:
• Green: Excellent signal strength with throughput no less than 20 Mbps;
• Yellow: Wireless connected but with degraded performance (<20 Mbps);
• Red: No wireless connection after beacon has been detected.
• Dark: No color when used in GbEthernet mode, Tethered mode, or a Beacon has not been
detected.

Detector Status LED:


• Green: Normal
• Red: Fault Condition

Battery LEDs represent the following conditions:


• LED 1 & LED 2 = Green: Indicating no less than 60% remaining power
• LED 1 = Dark + LED 2 = Green: Indicating between 35% and 60% remaining power
• LED 1 = Dark + LED 2 = Yellow: Indicating between 10% and 35% remaining power
• LED 1 = Dark + LED 2 = Red: Indication no more than 10% remaining power
• LED 1 & LED 2 = Dark: A tether is connected (Battery Removed)
10% is the minimum remaining battery capacity in order to prevent the battery from entering
sleep mode. Battery charging time will be significantly increased when it is in sleep mode.
Thus, 10% is really 0% for the customer. When the battery LEDs become LED 1 = Dark +
LED 2 = Red, the battery has to be either recharged or replaced before continuing operation.

Some Interactive Conditions:


• A red wireless LED and/or a red battery LED will trigger the red detector status LED. This is a
FAULT condition and the battery may need to be replaced.

Page 214 Section 8.3 FlashPad Detector Troubleshooting


GE HEALTHCARE OPTIMA XR200AMX/XR220AMX ADVANCED SYSTEM MANUAL
REVISION 21 GE CONFIDENTIAL DIRECTION 5336124-1EN

• In Wireless operation - press & hold the Wake Up button to activate sleep mode (power saver
mode). The Wireless and Status LEDs will go dark, but the battery LEDs will remain on. Press
the Wake Up button to restore operation.
• In Tethered operation – press & hold the Wake Up button and the detector will power off, all
LEDs will go dark. Press the Wake Up button to restore operation.

The typical Detector LED condition for Wireless Communication:


• Wireless LED = Green
• Detector Status LED = Green
• Battery LEDs = Green + Green (~60% -100% charge)

The expected Detector LED condition for Tether Communication:


• Wireless LED = Dark (off)
• Detector Status LED = Green
• Battery LEDs = Dark (off) + Dark (off)

The typical Detector LED condition for GbEthernet (Docked) Communication:


• Wireless LED = Dark (off)
• Detector Status LED = Green
• Battery LEDs = Green + Green (~60% -100% charge)

Note: If the battery is inserted into the detector it will be charged when the detector is in “Stand By” mode.
The charging is stopped during image acquisition.

8.3.1.6 Battery LEDs, TEST Pushbutton, and Pins


The battery is necessary and must be inserted into the detector for Wireless Communication. The
detector will not work properly if any other battery is installed. See Figure 8-16.

Figure 8-16

Press the TEST pushbutton on the battery to determine what percentage of charge is remaining in
the battery. Note that this percentage is relative to the capacity of the battery, and this capacity will

8.3.1.11 Detector Sensors


The detector design includes sensors that combined with software provide warnings to the operator
for certain conditions. There are diagnostics that can be run to check these conditions. If these
diagnostics report a FAILED status, replace the detector. DO NOT ATTEMPT A REPAIR.
• Voltages internal to the detector are monitored for conformance to lower spec limit (LSL) and
upper spec limit (USL). Voltage failure conditions are reported to the operator UIF. The event
is recorded. Depending on severity, exposure may be inhibited, and a request for detector
service will be posted.
• Temperature sensors are positioned in the detector to monitor panel temperature (for image
quality) and surface temperature (for patient safety). Defective sensor detection is employed
and the detector enters error-handling process once a new bad sensor is detected. A
temperature sensor is also integrated into the battery.
• Shock sensors monitor G-forces to detect any physical event that may have happened. There
is a 3-axis accelerometer inside the detector, which is used to monitor the amount of shock
received by the detector. There are two warning levels that can be reported to the operator
based on acceleration, levels 3 and 5. Level 3 indicates a shock of 200+ G's in magnitude, and
level 5 is between 100 to 200 G's. If the event(s) have been severe, the detector may not be
reliable and degraded image quality could be the result.
• Grid sensors detect the placement and removal of the grid on the front of the detector. Two
polarized magnets on the grid are used to accomplish this monitoring. Placement of a grid on
the rear of the detector will create a FAULT. The detector will monitor the presence of a grid
and send the system a grid status change message when the grid is attached to or removed

Page 226 Section 8.3 FlashPad Detector Troubleshooting


GE HEALTHCARE OPTIMA XR200AMX/XR220AMX ADVANCED SYSTEM MANUAL
REVISION 21 GE CONFIDENTIAL DIRECTION 5336124-1EN

from the detector. If the grid is attached on the wrong side of the detector, the detector sends
a level 3 warning message.

8.3.1.12 Detector Boot Routine


The operator UIF will display the code and description of these processes during a Normal start of
the host to detector communication. The code #’s are different, but the routine is the same for
Wireless, Tethered, or GbEthernet (Docked) communication.
• Code # - Digital Cassette Detector Boot In Process
• Code # - Digital Cassette Detector Calibration Data Upload In Process
• Code # - Digital Cassette Detector Boot Completed
• Code # - Digital Cassette Detector Calibration Data Upload Completed

8.3.1.13 Detector Sense in a Charging Bin vs Table or Wall Stand

Figure 8-29

The detector/system has the ability to know when a detector is in a mobile bin or in the fixed-room
dock. This is accomplished by sensing the resistance between the connector pins, shown in the
yellow circle, in Figure 8-29 above. This figure is shown in the diagnostics section, also.
• In mobile bin, these two pins shall be open where the resistance shall be no less than 1M ohm.
(>1M ohm)
• While in fixed room dock including both table and wall-stand, the two pins shall be shorted and
the resistance shall be no more than 1 ohm. (< 1 ohm)
This connector is replaceable, a (FRU).

8.3.1.14 Warning Levels


• Level 3: Indicating a critical event is detected. This warning indicates the performance of
the detector may be downgraded or detector surface temperature is approaching
safety limitation. The system shall inhibit the use of the detector with by-pass
function and direct the operator to stop using the detector except emergency use.
• Level 5: This warning is indicating a serious event was detected. The system shall warn
the operator of preparing for further action.

8.3.1.15 Host PC Connectivity


Assure all Ethernet cables are connected to the correct locations on the Host PC. Reference the
system wiring diagram, observe cable marking, and host PC connector marking.

8.3.2 Failure Modes

8.3.2.1 Communication Failures


An error message, error code, and Warning Icon will appear on the operator UIF when
communication between the host and detector is lost or fails to be established during detector boot.
Communications failures can occur at anytime whenever there is a failure to establish or maintain
the handshake between the host PC and the detector.

8.3.2.2 Environmental and Physical Failures

8.3.2.2.1 Temperature
A detector motherboard problem or internal power issue can raise panel or surface temperature
resulting in a warning posted to the operator UIF. Increased panel temperature may contribute to
image artifacts and may inhibit exposures. Extreme surface temperature is a risk to patient safety.
The battery may contribute to a temperature problem. Temperature sensors in the detector and
battery can also fail.

8.3.2.2.2 Voltage
The Switching Regulator Board (SRB) could develop a problem, which could cause a
communication failure or a temperature issue. The Power Supply Board could also become
defective and fail to provide the required voltages.

8.3.2.2.3 Sensors (shock and grid)


If the detector was dropped or somehow physically damaged, the detector may cause degraded
image quality. Shock sensors can fail.
If the grid was placed on the backside of the detector, the detector will not image. The polarized
magnets, which detect the grid placement, could be missing from the grid.

8.3.2.2.4 Detector Panel Defects or Damage


If the detector panel becomes damaged, internal problems may develop which could contribute to
degraded system performance or poor image quality.

8.3.2.3 Battery and Charging Failures


Battery failure and low battery can be a cause of communication or system operation failure.
Charging bin connector/circuitry can fail. Docking connections and circuitry can fail or cause
degraded system performance. Battery charger failure or poor operation can occur resulting in an
undercharged or poorly calibrated battery.

8.3.2.4 Detector – System Firmware/Software Compatibility


Customers that acquire additional systems and multiple detectors may experience inhibits when
sharing detectors across these systems. The cause could be related to different detector firmware
versions or detector – system FW/SW incompatibility.

Section 8.4 Wireless Connectivity Troubleshooting


8.4.1 Band Selection
The Networks Configuration screen was updated to allow the user to select whether they want to
operate in the 2.4 GHz band, 5 GHz, band or both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. See Figure 8-31.

Figure 8-31

A Band Selection section is now located above the IP settings within the Network Configuration
screen as highlighted above. The default selection is to use both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. This screen
should be used to in place of the modifications called out in the Wireless Band Selection Service
Instruction (DOC1273850).

8.4.1.1 Indications for Use


The customer will report about problems with wireless networking such as not being able to pull a
worklist or push images to PACS. Further investigation requires answering the following questions:
• Does the network in question utilize both bands (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz)?
• Does the wpa_supplicant.log file show challenges connecting to one band but not the other?
• Can the network admin at the site confirm whether the site is utilizing Band Select (Cisco) or
Band Steering (Aruba)?

If the site is utilizing Band Steering or Band Select then you set the device to utilize 5 GHz.

Page 232 Section 8.4 Wireless Connectivity Troubleshooting


GE HEALTHCARE OPTIMA XR200AMX/XR220AMX ADVANCED SYSTEM MANUAL
REVISION 21 GE CONFIDENTIAL DIRECTION 5336124-1EN

If the site is only utilizing a single band for their network, then using this feature will not resolve any
connectivity issues the site is having.

If analysis of the wpa_supplicant.log file shows equal challenges connecting to 2.4 GHz (channels
1, 6, & 11) and 5 GHz channels then this feature will most likely not help with connectivity issues
the customer is having.

8.4.1.2 Cause
If the site is using Band Steering, Band Select, or some other similar technology the problem is that
the site is using methods outside of the 802.11 standard to guide clients that are capable of
operating on both 802.11 bands up to the less congested 5 GHz band. WiFi operates in two discrete
frequency bands: 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. Most hospitals primarily utilize the 2.4 GHz band for their
wireless networks as it has better spatial coverage and decreases the total cost of ownership/
operation for a wireless network. Unfortunately, the 2.4 GHz band only offers 3 available channels
for use in an enterprise network, which leads to many issues in larger institutions including co-
channel interference and overcrowding.

To alleviate this, many sites are now beginning to utilize the 5 GHz spectrum as well as there are
more than 20 channels available and much less traffic. Since most clients only support 2.4 GHz, if
a network that utilizes Band Steering/Band Select sees a client capable of 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz
connections it will not let the client connect to the 2.4 GHz network. By doing this, the goal is to force
the client to move to the 5 GHz network and minimize connections on the 2.4 GHz network.

Vendor implementations of Band Steering vary widely, but each has its own perils and pitfalls from
the client’s perspective. This manifests itself as long roaming times (large gaps in connectivity while
moving around the hospital) and further inspection of log files shows little success connecting to 2.4
GHz Access Points (APs) while also showing consistent success connecting to 5 GHz APs.

There are other times where for other reasons (usually pertaining to timing settings on the wireless
controllers) having the client operate on one band or the other only instead of both is desirable.

When in doubt, utilize the 5 GHz band.

8.4.1.3 How To Use


If you have determined that Band Steering or Band Select (or another WLAN issue) may be harming
roaming performance you can set the system to utilize only one band or the other. Simply select the
radio button for 2.4 GHz only or 5 GHz only, save the change to the profile, and do a full system
reboot.

GE HEALTHCARE OPTIMA XR200AMX/XR220AMX ADVANCED SYSTEM MANUAL
REVISION 21 GE CONFIDENTIAL DIRECTION 5336124-1EN

8.4.2 Roaming
Whereas previously adjustments to the roaming algorithm was done via the command line, the
parameters are now adjustable via the Roaming Tab in the wireless configuration screen. See
Figure 8-32.

Figure 8-32

8.4.2.1 Min. dB to attempt to connect


This field is used to establish the minimum connection threshold. If the best signal strength the
system hears from neighboring APs is not above this threshold the system will not attempt to
connect.

Default value is -75 dB, users should not have to adjust this value.

Page 234 Section 8.4 Wireless Connectivity Troubleshooting


GE HEALTHCARE OPTIMA XR200AMX/XR220AMX ADVANCED SYSTEM MANUAL
REVISION 21 GE CONFIDENTIAL DIRECTION 5336124-1EN

8.4.2.2 Min. dB to remain connected


This field is used to establish the threshold at which point the system will automatically disconnect
from an AP and search for a better connection if a roam has not already taken place.

Default value is -80 dB, users should not have to adjust this value.

8.4.2.3 Min. dB difference to roam to a new AP


This field is used to establish the roaming threshold. After scanning its environment, if the system
sees another access point (AP) that matches the network the system is assigned to that is at least
X dB better (where X is the Min. dB difference to roam to a new AP value) then the system will
attempt to roam to the new AP.

For example, if the value is set to 7 dB, our current RSSI is -70 dB, and the best AP we see that
matches the current profile is -63 dB, the system will attempt to roam to the new AP.

The default value is 7 dB. Environments with dense AP deployments or lots of sharp corners may
find they need to decrease this value in order to improve roaming performance.

8.4.2.4 Slow & Fast Scan Rate and Fast scan when signal is below threshold
The final three sliders on this page determine how often the client is performing background scans
to evaluate the RF environment. One of the primary jobs of the wireless software is to constantly
monitor the RF environment it is in to determine whether it is connected to the proper AP or whether
it is time to roam to a new one. The way our client does this is by doing what is called a background
scan. These sliders help determine how often that background scan is performed.

The Fast scan when signal is below threshold determines when the fast scan rate is used and when
the slow scan rate is used. If the signal strength of the current connection falls below this threshold,
the fast scan rate will be used. If the signal strength of the current connection is above this
threshold, the slow scan rate is used.

In dense installations of APs (APs are not spaced very far apart) it may be necessary to decrease
the fast scan rate to 4 seconds and the slow scan rate to 10 seconds so that the client can pick up
the new APs quickly as they become available.

8.4.3 Advanced
The final update to the user interface is the addition of the Advanced Tab (Figure 8-33).

Figure 8-33

8.4.3.1 Indications for Use


If the system is having trouble connecting to the network or has trouble maintaining a connection to
an 802.11n network you can now disable 802.11n mode for our system from the user interface.
Simply select the option for 802.11n Disabled, Commit, and do a full system reboot. The system will
now act as an 802.11 a/b/g client and won’t advertise 802.11n capabilities. This will simplify the
connection process and can increase stability.

Note: This only applies to systems with Intel 5200 and 6200 cards:
Rev 2 PCs will use Atheros 9280 based wireless cards manufactured by Compex, these do not
allow you to disable 802.11n.

The option to use software crypto moves the encryption process from the hardware on the wireless
chipset and into software. If after disabling 802.11n you are still having trouble maintaining
connectivity to the network try using the software crypto option. Check the box next to the option,
commit, and do a full system reboot.

9.8.2.3 Procedure

Note: The carriage safety lock system is designed to limit downward motion of the horizontal arm / tube
assembly should an event occur where there is an imbalance in the counterweight system. In this
situation the carriage safety lock will engage to prevent the horizontal arm / tube assembly from
falling downward. However the horizontal arm / tube assembly can be ratcheted upwards when the
carriage safety lock is engaged.
Always be certain of the cause of the carriage safety lock engagement before disengaging the
carriage safety lock. If the carriage safety lock has engaged due to a problem in the counterweight
system it is critical to resolve that problem before disengaging the carriage safety lock.

Chapter 9 Replacement procedures Page 423

When performing the column replacement procedure it is possible that the carriage safety lock may
become engaged if the carriage assembly is lifted upwards while the column vertical lock is
engaged. This is the only situation where the procedure below should be applied.
If the carriage safety lock becomes engaged while performing this procedure, use the following
steps to disengage it:
a. Ensure that the horizontal arm, tube, and collimator are installed and the vertical lock is
engaged. See 9.8.1 Engaging vertical lock.
b. Remove the 4 screws and carriage cover plate. See Figure 9-169.

Figure 9-169 Carriage cover plate

c. With one person lifting up slightly on the horizontal arm, have the other person pry the
carriage safety lock upwards with a large flat blade screwdriver. See Figure 9-170.

3. Using caution, as these parts are under tension from the springs, remove both spring cap
screws. The hardware on these cap screws is very easy to fall off the cap screw and drop down
into the column. It is best to use a T-handle hex wrench for this task; hex wrenches with a ball
end will not work well. Note the order in which the hardware is placed on the cap screws. See
Figure 9-172.

The following configurations must be configured by the Fuji printer representative to print correctly
sized images:
• LUT1 as SAR17 for calling AE_TITLE.
• Trim width at 1 pixel for calling AE_TITLE.
• Globally configure “a margin between image” for 0 pixels.
• Globally configure “Image layout” for spread.
• A densitometer filter (FUJI part number 605S0003) must be used when performing printer
calibration.

Note: Only 14x17 film should be used with this printer. Any other film size used may print films with
incorrect measurements.
