IMPORTANT X-RAY PROTECTION


X-ray equipment if not properly used may cause injury. Accordingly, the instructions herein
contained should be thoroughly read and understood by everyone who will use the equipment
before you attempt to place this equipment in operation. The General Electric Company, Medical
Systems Group, will be glad to assist and cooperate in placing this equipment in use.
Although this apparatus incorporates a high degree of protection against x-radiation other than the useful
beam, no practical design of equipment can provide complete protection. Nor can any practical design compel
the operator to take adequate precautions to prevent the possibility of any persons carelessly exposing
themselves or others to radiation.
It is important that everyone having anything to do with x-radiation be properly trained and fully acquainted
with the recommendations of the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements as published in
NCRP Reports available from NCRP Publications, 7910 Woodmont Avenue, Room 1016, Bethesda,
Maryland 20814, and of the International Commission on Radiation Protection, and take adequate steps to
protect against injury.
The equipment is sold with the understanding that the General Electric Company, Medical Systems Group, its
agents, and representatives have no responsibility for injury or damage which may result from improper use of
the equipment.
Various protective material and devices are available. It is urged that such materials or devices be used.

CERTIFIED ELECTRICAL CONTRACTOR STATEMENT


All electrical installations that are preliminary to positioning of the equipment at the site prepared for the equipment
shall be performed by licensed electrical contractors. In addition, electrical feeds into the Power Distribution Unit
shall be performed by licensed electrical contractors. Other connections between pieces of electrical equipment,
calibrations, and testing shall be performed by qualified GE Medical personnel. The products involved (and the
accompanying electrical installations) are highly sophisticated, and special engineering competence is required. In
performing all electrical work on these products, GE will use its own specially trained field engineers. All of GE’s
electrical work on these products will comply with the requirements of the applicable electrical codes.

The purchaser of GE equipment shall only utilize qualified personnel (i.e., GE’s field engineers, personnel of
third-party service companies with equivalent training, or licensed electricians) to perform electrical servicing on
the equipment.

DAMAGE IN TRANSPORTATION
All packages should be closely examined at time of delivery. If damage is apparent, have notation “damage in
shipment” written on all copies of the freight or express bill before delivery is accepted or “signed for” by a
General Electric representative or a hospital receiving agent. Whether noted or concealed, damage MUST be
reported to the carrier immediately upon discovery, or in any event, within 14 days after receipt, and the
contents and containers held for inspection by the carrier. A transportation company will not pay a claim for
damage if an inspection is not requested within this 14 day period.

Call Traffic and Transportation, Milwaukee, WI (414) 827–3449 / 8*285–3449 immediately after damage is

3–3–5–1 Exposure Backup Timer Functional Test


Download diagnostic firmware, if necessary. Press the Diagnostics Menu |Backup Timer|
button (Illustration 3–10) to access the Exposure Backup Timer Functional Test. Use this test
to verify backup timer operation (i.e., timer activates, timer counts down to zero, and
de–energizes backup contactor).
The Gentry I/O Board contains the backup timer. The system enables this counter to allow
the backup timer sufficient time to energize before the start of an exposure. The system sets
the backup timer to the prescribed scan time, plus 5%. The timer begins to count down when
the circuit detects an Exposure Command or HVON. If either the Exposure Command or
HVON remains active after the allotted time, the CPU receives a level 1 interrupt, and
disables the backup contactor.
The read and write verification requires the clock circuit to operate. The test repeats, and
uses both clocks (488.28 Hz and 1953 Hz) which also confirms the operation of the clock
select circuit. The test simulates an exposure, and verifies the that the backup timer
generates an interrupt.

3–4–1 Shell
The shell (Illustration 3–19) is a program that reads and interprets what is typed in or read at
the command line; and provides the interface between the user and the unix operating
system. The shell accepts your command lines, checks the syntax, calls the appropriate unix
commands, and takes control when other commands finish. It is interactive because it
responds to your instruction and reports errors, status and results. The shell also provides an
interpreted command language for creating complex “scripts” that carry out system
maintenance actions. A “script” is a file containing a sequence of commands. By using the
source filename command, i.e., type in the filename as if it were a command, you can tell
the shell to read and perform commands in the file.

Note: Direction 46–015523, SunOS / Genesis Quick Reference Guide, contains a description
of the unix commands you need to maintain the system. The Network Service
Documentation Set (46–021650), shipped with every CT HiSpeed Advantage and
Upgrade Kit, contains Direction 46–015523.

3–5–3 Detector Slope Test


Use this System Performance tool to test the detector for signs of gain response
degradation. A typical healthy detector should have a status number lower than 19. As the
detector degrades, this number is likely to increase. Eventually a detector failure will be
recorded if it exceeds 19. The software automatically runs the Detector Slope Test on a
monthly basis, immediately after a FastCal. The test adds about 4 minutes to the FastCal
program. The system displays a PASS/FAIL message after it runs the test. Refer to
Illustration 3–26 for an example of the failure message.

Note: If the Detector Slope Test fails, the failure message screen instructs the customer to
contact GE for service. A GE service representative will preform recommended field
procedures (FMI, etc) for system troubleshooting and/or detector replacement.
The UTILITIES menu also displays a |Detector Slope| softkey, which provides manual
access to the tool.
This test fails when the software detects incorrect Collimator
CAUTION Characterization values or insufficient DD File space. When a
failure occurs, review the Error Message Log for additional
information. For optimal clinical image performance, periodically
check all system alignments, and make sure they fall within spec.

To manually access the Detector Slope Test:


1. Display the UTILITIES menu.
» Refer to the Illustration on page 28.

Sections 3–6–2–1 through 3–6–2–4 describe the Scan Analysis steps.

3–6–2–1 Scan File Selection


A scan file can be chosen from a list of patient scans or a list of diagnostic scans. List/Select
screens are used for this. (The individual exam/suite/series/scan fields may be entered
directly if desired.)

Use the List/Select screens to choose a scan file from a list of patient scans or a list of
diagnostic scans. (You may type/enter an individual exam/suite/series/scan selection at this
time, if you know it.)

3–6–2–2 Function Types


Choose one of the five available functions:
1. Views Versus Channels (VVC)
2. View Data
3. Channel Data
4. Means and Standard Deviations
5. Centroid
Views Versus Channels

Views Versus Channels (VVC) creates an image by submitting a queue request to the
toolMain process. Use VVC to identify image artifacts caused by streaks or tube spits, for
example. Use CD Plot to analyze the VVC images, and identify the view number and DAS
channel.

Tool Processing performs the VVC processing in the AP. The software uses the recon
view–loop routines on the scan data, with the exception of DOC (DAS Overrange
Correction), which it does not use during VVC processing. See sections 3–6–2–3
Pre–Processing Options for details.

View Data

The View Data function extracts one view of data from a Scan File and applies selected
processing and output options. If you select the File output option, the software creates a
View type, View oriented DD File.

Channel Data

The Channel Data function extracts the data for one channel from each selected view of a
Scan File, and applies selected processing and output options. If you select the File output
option, the software creates a Channel type, Channel oriented DD File.

Means and Standard Deviation (MSD)

The MSD function calculates the means and standard deviation for each channel, across all
selected views. If you select the File output option, the software creates an MSD type, View
oriented DD File.

Centroid

32
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS HISPEED ADVANTAGE SYSTEM
Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

The Centroid function calculates the centroid for each view to create a view orientated vector
of centroid values. The Centroid function provides a number of exclusive processing options.

and/or channels), and use the multiplication factor.

Reference channels can be left of the plot data (if chosen). A window range value is used
only for Views Versus Channels. Also, the ability choose between Means or Standard
Deviations can be used for the Means and Standard Deviations function.

During a Views Versus Channels session, the user may enter a window range on the Output
Options screen. The software uses the pixel value range to map the image data. Window
range is an integer value.

Output Device

There are four output device options: Plot, File, Screen, and Print.

The Plot option creates a line graph on the IP, except for Views Versus Channels. (For VVC,
an image is created. VVC can only use the Plot output device.)

The File option saves the data to a DD File. The file output mode prompts the user for a file
name and description. The name is mandatory. The description may be left blank.

The Screen option output displays the data on the plasma in a page format. You may select
next, prior, first and last page, where appropriate. The Screen mode has the following sorting
or format options:

» Sort Ascend

Note: The gantry control assembly is located near the collimator. The switch can be reached
through the opening in the center of the gantry between the front and back shrouds.

WHEN OPERATING ALIGNMENT LIGHTS, DO NOT AT ANY TIME


STARE DIRECTLY INTO THE LASER BEAMS. STARING INTO THE
WARNING BEAMS CAN CAUSE PERMANENT EYE DAMAGE

4–8–1 Internal Axial Lights


Place a sheet of plain white paper over the output port of each light and verify that the two
lines line up on each other.

Note: The internal axial lasers on the high speed advantage system are not designed to shine
“down’ on the collimator; do not adjust them to do so. The tomographic plane tests use
the QA phantom to verify the internal axial lasers are correctly aligned with the collimator.

4–8–2 External Axial to Internal Axial Distance


Raise the table to its highest elevation. Extend the cradle enough so that both the internal and
external laser lights are visible on the cradle. Place a metric rule on the right edge of the cradle
and measure the distance from the internal axial laser line to the external axial line generated by
each laser. Verify this distance equals 310.0mm ±1.0mm. Place the rule on the left edge of the
cradle and measure again.

Leaving cradle extended enough so that both internal and external laser lines are visible on it,
lower table to the lowest elevation possible. Verify the 310.0 mm ±.0mm distance between
the internal and external lights on both edges of the cradle, as above.

4–8–3 Coronal Lights


Place a sheet of plain white paper at the left side of the patient opening in front of the coronal
laser light. Verify that the two coronal lines coincide with each other. Check the right side in
the same way.

Place the paper in the center of the Gantry opening and verify that the coronal lines are
horizontal, using a level.

4–8–4 Alignment Light Visualization


H.H.S. requirements state that if a light is used to define the tomographic plane, it must be visible
under ambient light conditions up to 500 lux. Proceed as follows:

1. Turn on the scan room lights to their brightest normal level. Do not add localized spot
lights to increase the brightness level.
2. Raise the table to its highest position, advance the cradle into the gantry, and turn on the
alignment lights.
3. Use the back of your hand centered over the cradle and held normal to the alignment light
as a viewing surface to visualize the external axial alignment lights. It is only necessary to
see the axial lights, not the sagital or coronal lights.
4. Repeat using the back of your hand to visualize the internal axial lights.
If the external or internal axial lights cannot be visualized under the above conditions, obtain
a DIGAPHOT model #3300 or 3303 light meter and measure the ambient light intensity at the
cradle surface for the external and internal alignment light locations.

44
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS HISPEED ADVANTAGE SYSTEM
Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

Note: Footcandles x 10.76=lux.

If the light reading(s) are greater than 500 lux reduce the room lighting to that level and
repeat steps 3 and 4. If the light meter readings are 500 lux or less, replace the laser light(s)
and/or their power supplies.

4–12 Mechanical Characterization Procedure

Illustration 4–7 shows the Tool Selection Menu where we can access he Mechanical
Characterization Program. This section describes the user interface to the characterization tool .
This tool is needed to set up the characterization tables for the system firmware. The system
firmware tracks various mechanical characteristics of the machine by reading feedback devices.
The system firmware must be told how the values of these feedback devices relate to the actual
machine characteristics. The Characterization tool allows a service person to define a reference
value to each of these feedback devices. The characterization data is stored in a series of
characterization and configuration files.

The characterization tool leads the user through the process of building the characterization
files in a step by step fashion. The tool directs the operator to what needs to be set up.
When the user responds, the tool reads the appropriate feedback device and stores the value
in the appropriate characterization file. The tool also provides a mechanism to download the
files to the firmware and to view the files.

5–2 Generator Characterization


Illustration 5–2 shows the Tool Selections Menu containing the Generator Characterization
Program used to set up and calibrate the generator hardware to accurately generate x–rays
at the given kV/mA.

Use the Generator Characterization Program to update the “small spot” and “large spot”
characterization files to provide a starting point for the closed loop mode of the generator.
This is an iterative process which takes several scans at a different KV/MA/spot size,
calculates corrections, repeats the scan until the results are within tolerance and then
updates the characterization file.

CHAPTER 9 – SYSTEM ALIGNMENTS

9–1 Overview
This section describes the x–ray alignment procedures used to optimize the physical
relationships between the tube unit, collimator, and the detector. This chapter contains the
following procedures:

» Plane of Rotation – Adjust tube into or out of the gantry (Z–axis).


Adjust collimator rotation.
» Beam on Window – Adjust detector into or out of the gantry (Z–axis).
» Tube Output and Detector Channel Check – A limit check, no adjustments.
» Radial Alignment – Adjust detector CW or CCW.
» Isocenter Alignment – Adjust tube up/down (Y–axis).
» Center Body Filter and System Sag – Adjust collimator and filter up/down (Y–axis).
Calculate Sag parameters. (no adjustments).

Note: The ISO alignment uses both large and small focal spots; all other alignments use only
the large focal spot.

9–2 Plane Of Rotation (POR)


This procedure checks and adjusts the plane of rotation of the x–ray fan beam to make it
perpendicular to the axis of gantry rotation within 0.010 (0.25mm) across the largest
reconstruction circle (48cm). This procedure offsets the fan beam to account for the slight
shift that occurs with heating of the x–ray tube.

Verify that the tube unit is cold. If you have executed any low
CAUTION technique scans prior to beginning plane of rotation (POR), you
must wait at least 5 minutes before attempting this alignment
procedure. If you have previously executed image scanning and
would like to re–check POR, you must wait at least 90 minutes to
allow the tube unit to cool, e.g., if the tube unit has had greater
than 25 Kilojoules exposure KV x mA x Sec /1000 within the last 30
min. Failure to heed this caution may result in inaccurate POR
alignment

POR Procedure:
1. Place the phantom holder and 48cm phantom on the cradle.
2. Tape a type 52 film at the 3:00 o’clock position on the outside edge of the 48cm phantom,
so that the film projects into the gantry as shown in Illustration 9–1. The side of the film
marked “This side toward lens” should be towards isocenter. When exposed and
developed, the film will show the alignment of the two beams with the table at the left as
viewed from the x–ray tube at the 3:00 o’clock position.
3. Turn on the alignment lights, advance the cradle and position the film for an exposure
near the image center mark on the film pack.
4. Within CT Tools perform an axial scan with x–rays on:
» Touch the |DDC| softkey.

95
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS HISPEED ADVANTAGE SYSTEM
Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

» Touch the |View Compressed| softkey.


» Touch the |Axial X–Ray On| softkey.
» Type/enter POR in the Run Description field.
» Type/enter 4 (seconds) for Scan Time.
» Type/enter 0 (degrees) for X–Ray ON Position.
» Type/enter 40 in the mA data field.
» Type/enter 80 in the kV data field.
» Touch the |10|(mm) Aperture softkey.
» Touch the |Bowtie| Filter softkey.
» Touch |Large| Spot Size softkey.
» Touch |Accept Rx| softkey.
» Press the Start Scan key on the console, when it illuminates, to initiate the scan.
» Touch the |Tools| softkey to exit DDC.
5. Remove and develop the film. Mark a “T” on the film to identify the table side as in
Illustration 9–1. Verify that the narrow exposure lays within the wider x–ray exposure.

Note: Examine the edges of the two exposures in the Z direction. Both edges of each beam
should be equally well defined with the edges of the narrow beam much sharper than the
wide beam. If there is a difference in edge definition, check for gross Z misalignment
where the slit in the tube collimator adapter is defining the fuzzy edge. Both edges of the
beam should be defined only by the exit slit of the collimator.

6. Measure the 10 mm exposure to determine the plane of rotation. Use a Pocket


Comparator with reticule or vernier caliper to measure the two widths of the wide beam
not covered by the narrow beam. As shown in Illustration 9–1, these dimensions are
designated as XF(front) and XR(rear). Therefore, the difference in center lines of the two
beams is [XF–XR]/2.
7. To meet the “cold” tube conditions and maintain the perpendicularity specification of the
fan beam, [XF–XR]/2 must fall in the range of 0.0 to –0.010 (0.0 to –0.25mm),i.e., XF
must be slightly less than XR.
If the 10mm beam XF and XR measurements do not meet the specification in step 7., shift
the Z position of the x–ray tube toward the wider of the two beams. By gantry geometry, the
tube shift should be 0.26 times the difference between XF and (XR –0.02 ). In other words,
the x–ray tube needs to be shifted by the formula:

Tube Shift = 0.26 [XF–XR + 0.02 ] = 0.26 [XF–XR + 0.5mm]

Note: A positive tube shift moves the tube toward the table, a negative shift towards the gantry.

In the example of Illustration 9–2, the x–ray tube should be moved toward the table to shift
the wide beam to be better centered over the narrow beam. The x–ray tube should be shifted
0.26(0.23–0.07 + 0.02)= 0.047 inches.

Wait 5 minutes and perform the following for the 1.0mm aperture:

1. Repeat the previous steps for the 1.0mm aperture.


2. Remove and develop the film pack.
3. Since it is difficult to measure beam centering on the 1.0mm aperture plane of rotation,
only perform a visual inspection and note the observed findings. Examine the 1.0 mm
exposure and check that the edges of the wide beam can be seen on either side of the
narrow beam.
4. Attach the exposed film to your site log.

When the Plane of Rotation is within specification, tighten the four tube mounting bolts to a
torque of 30 +3.0 ft–lbs. (360 +36 in.–lbs.).

Note: Hand tighten the circular knurled nut to prevent the Z adjust lever from rattling loose.

Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

9–3 Beam On Window (BOW)


This procedure checks and adjusts the position of the detector window so that it intercepts
the entire width of the x–ray fan beam under worst case conditions. This procedure offsets
the beam to account for the fan beam shift toward the table that occurs with heating of the
x–ray tube.

READ DIRECTION 46–018302, CT HISPEED ADVANTAGE SAFETY
GUIDELINES MANUAL OR HAVE VIEWED 46–018308 CT HISPEED
ADVANTAGE SAFETY VIDEO PRIOR TO SERVICING THESE
SUBSYSTEMS.

Verify that the tube unit is cold. If you have executed any low
CAUTION technique scans prior to beginning beam on window (BOW), you
must wait at least 5 minutes before attempting this alignment
procedure. If you have previously executed image scanning and
would like to re–check BOW, you must wait at least 30 minutes to
allow the tube unit to cool, e.g., if the tube unit has had greater
than 25 Kilojoules exposure KV x mA x Sec /1000 within the last 30
min. Failure to heed this caution may result in inaccurate BOW
alignment.

Proceed as follows:

1. Display the Tools Selection Menu and use the DDC function to move the tube to 0
azimuth position:
» Touch the |DDC| softkey on the plasma.
» Touch the POSITION TUBE softkey.
» Enter 0 in the tube position entry field and press carriage return.
» Message appears saying “Is gantry clear?”. If gantry is clear, select “yes”.
2. Turn off the gantry loop contactor switch and the Gantry 550v enable switch. The X–Ray
tube should remain in the gantry 12 o’clock position, (0 tube position).
3. With the detector at the six o’clock position, place three pieces of Polaroid film on the
detector as shown in Illustration 9–2. Orient the film with the side marked “This side
toward lens” toward the detector.

6. Note the position of each film and remove all three pieces of film. Press heavily on the
film and draw a line on the film between the marks you made previously. This line must
show on the film after it is developed.
7. Place the films back in their positions on the detector. Verify that the pencil marks of step
6 align with the detector window. Secure with masking tape.
8. With the film properly positioned on the detector, place both the loop contactor switch
and the Gantry 550 enable switch in the gantry to the ON position.
9. Within CT Tools perform a stationary scan as follows:
» Touch the |DDC| softkey.
» Touch the |Position Tube| softkey.
» Type/enter 0 (degrees) in the X–Ray On Position data field.
» Message appears: “Is gantry clear?”. If gantry is clear, select “yes”.
» Touch the |Data Collection| softkey.

» Touch the |Air| Filter softkey.
» Touch the |Accept Rx| softkey.
» Touch the |Start Scan| softkey when prompted.
» Touch the |Tools| softkey to exit DDC.
10. Refer to Illustration 9–2. Make two lines on the exposed films: One line
exactly 1/16 inch (1.6mm) from the first line toward the gantry, another line exactly 1.24
(31.5mm) from the second line.
11. The center of the X–Ray beam must be toward the gantry on the detector window. The
x–ray beam center (CL EXPOSURE) must be within 0.00472 inches to 0.03465 inches
(0.12 to 0.88 mm) of the detector window center but displaced toward the Gantry, as
shown in Illustration 9–2.
12. After the scan completes, remove and develop the films. Be sure to mark them to
remember their relative positions.
Use a vernier caliper or pocket comparator with mm or inch scale reticle to measure the
difference between these centerlines. Measure the two edges between the exposure and the
window. If these dimensions are XF(front) and XR(rear) the centerline difference equals:
XF – XR
2

To meet specification, use the following formula:

XF – XR = 0.04  0.015 inches or XF – XR = 1.0  0.4 mm

If adjustment is required, proceed as follows Refer to illustration 9–5:

a. Loosen all three of the detector mounting nuts, even if only one or two need adjustment.

100
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS HISPEED ADVANTAGE SYSTEM
Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

b. Loosen only the adjustment locking nuts on the mounts which require adjustment.
c. Turn the mounting studs the specified number of flats (1 flat = 0.00727 inches or 0.182
millimeters) to bring the detector into alignment, using the locking nut as a reference for
the number of flats.

Note: Adjust the detector hardware CW to move the detector toward the gantry.

d. Hold the adjustment stud with a wrench while you tighten the adjustment locking nut.
e. Tighten the detector mounting nuts.

9–4 Image Noise Check


Use this check to verify the integrity of the tube output, as well as normal channel output. The
procedure involves scanning the water section of the Quality Assurance and Performance
(QA) Phantom (46–241709G1) and measuring the image noise (i.e., standard deviation of
the ROI). Proceed as follows:

Image Noise Check procedure:


a. Perform 4 axial scan slices of the 20 cm section (water) of the QA phantom against the
small cal at a technique of:

––– 20 cm/S/120 kV/170 mA/10 mm/2 s –––


b. Place a 51 x 51 pixel ROI box at coordinates 255, 255 for each of the 4 slices.
c. Record the mean CT number and the standard deviation for each slice.
d. Calculate the 4 slice average of the mean CT number and the standard deviation.

Specifications:
a. Four slice average for the mean CT number should be 0.0  3.0.
b. If tube has less than 5000 scans, 4 slice average for the standard deviation range should
be 3.00 to 3.60.
c. If tube has more than 5000 scans, 4 slice average for the standard deviation range
should be 3.00 to 3.80.

Replace the tube if the test results exceeds the specifications depicted above.

9–5 Radial Alignment


Radial alignment is performed only if you have installed a new detector. Otherwise, skip this
section and go directly to Isocenter Alignment (section 9–6). Radial alignment need only be
done for detector installations or if the detector has been removed from the gantry for any
reason.

Verify that the tube unit is cold. If you have executed any low
CAUTION technique scans prior to beginning radial alignment, you must wait
at least 5 minutes before attempting this alignment procedure. If
you have previously executed image scanning and would like to
re–check radial alignment, you must wait at least 90 minutes to
allow the tube unit to cool, e.g., if the tube unit has had greater
than 25 Kilojoules exposure KV x mA x Sec /1000 within the last 30
min. Failure to heed this caution may result in inaccurate radial
alignment.

Note: A rough ISO center adjustment must be made prior to radial alignment. Use the
Isocenter Alignment procedure (section 9–6) and move the tube so that it is within .005 (
0.10 channels) of the correct position. Don’t bother trying to tweak it in perfectly at this
point. When ISO is roughly set, start with step 1 below.

Requirement:The initial starting position of the cam must be in the center


of its range of motion.

1. Touch |CT Tools| to display the Tools Selection screen. Use the DDC function to move
the tube to the 0 azimuth position:
» Touch the |DDC| softkey on the plasma.
» Touch the |Position Tube| softkey.
» Type/enter |180| (degrees) in the tube position entry field.
» Touch the |Accept Rx| softkey.
» Tube moves to the bottom of the gantry.
2. Turn off the gantry loop contactor switch and the Gantry 550 enable switch. The gantry
is now oriented such that the x–ray tube unit is positioned at the 6 o’clock position, (180
tube position).
3. With the detector at the 12 o’clock position, install the rotational alignment tools on the
detector. The pin must project into the X–Ray beam (Illustration 9–3). First, place the tool
which contains the pin on the detector but do not tighten the holding screw. Then locate
the other tool over the pin and in the locating holes, on the detector, and finger tighten
the holding screws. Removal is the reverse of installation.
4. Turn ON both the loop contactor switch and 550v enable switch in the gantry.

information recorded in step 5.
» Touch the |Continue| softkey.
6. Now, edit the Centroid menu to reflect the following:
» Calfile name is the same as the Isocal file used above.
» Static.
» Pin for the body file.
» Pin for first channel to search for.
» Number of channels on either side to include 10.
» Touch |Continue| when all information is entered correctly.
» When all information is correct on the Plot Parameters screen,
touch |Plot|.
» Touch |Info| to see the centroid information.
The radial adjustment limits equals 376.4 ±2 channels.

If your system is within the limit, no adjustment is necessary. Continue with isocenter center
alignment (section 9–6). If outside of the limits, the detector will have to be rotated. At this
point, calculate the motion required to reach the channel you are aiming for.

Note: Rotate the detector CW to move the pin to a lower channel number.
Rotate the detector CCW to move the pin to a higher channel.

Example: Assume that the average centroid of the pin scan equals 374.700. To determine
the amount of detector rotation to properly position the detector:

Motion = |376.4 – 374.700| X .0226 = .038

To move the pin projection to a higher channel, move the detector adjustment cam so the
detector moves 0.038 ” CCW. (End of example.)

Install a dial indicator on the side of the detector with the rotational adjustment hardware. Set
it to 0.000 . See Illustration 9–5.

1. Loosen all three sets of the large detector mounting nuts slightly, so that they are finger
tight. See Illustration 9–5.
2. Loosen the allen head rotational adjustment locking screws.
See Illustration 9–4.
3. Move the detector by the calculated amount.
4. Tighten the allen head rotational adjustment locking screws.
5. Torque the inside detector mounting nuts to 25 ft–lbs. While holding the inside nut to
keep it from turning, torque the outside nuts to 25 ft–lbs. If you don’t have a torque
wrench, tighten the nuts until finger tight, then tighten 1⁄2 flat with a wrench.
6. Repeat the Radial Alignment procedure to verify the adjustment.

11. Touch the |Accept| softkey. Large spot isocenter will be calculated and recommendation
for tube movement displayed if isocenter is outside its limits. Record the displayed data,
then touch the |Tools| softkey to exit the alignment program.
12. Touch the |Tube Align| softkey (see Illustration 9–9) to return to the Manual Calculations
screen shown in Illustration 9–8. Touch the |Iso Align| softkey.
13. Enter the DD file created in step 2 (the small iso air scan).
14. Enter exam #, series # and scan # for the scan file created in step 4
(the small iso pin scan).
15. Touch the |Accept| softkey. Small spot isocenter will be calculated and recommendation
for tube movement displayed if isocenter is outside its limits. Record the displayed data,
then touch the |Tools| softkey to exit the alignment program.
16. First, calculate the average isocenter value by averaging the isovalue for the small spot
with the isovalue for the large spot:
Mean = (isoSmall + isoLarge) / 2.

Note: The specification for proper isocenter alignment equals 373.75 ±0.02 channels (i.e., the
average of the 2 iso values in step 16). If the isovalue is in spec, then do not shift the
tube. If the isovalue is out of spec, calculate the required tube shift during the next step.

17. Calculate distance to move tube in millimeters or inches:


» Tube shift_in_mm = (mean – 373.75) * 1.36468

OR
» Tube shift_in_inches = “(mean – 373.75) * 0.053728”.

Note: If the resulting tube shift value is a negative number, move the tube down. If the value is
positive, then the tube should be moved up.

Adjust the tube, as described in section 9–8, and repeat steps 1 through 16 to verify whether
isocenter is in spec. Continue iteration until the spec is met.

9–8 Isocenter Adjustment


If the calculated ISOCENTER value falls outside the specification, adjust the tube unit by the
amount as displayed on the CRT with the following procedure:

Select the Starrett #25–141 gauge (0.001 inch to 0.250 inch) which is attached to the
nonmagnetic holding fixture and bolt the gauge and its holding fixture to the special tube
mounting bracket. Zero out gauge before you loosen the mounting bolts. Loosen the four
mounting bolts (9/16 ) holding the tube unit to the gantry mounting plate and the top 0.750
inch nut on the vertical adjustment screw.

Move the tube in the direction and prescribed amount called out on the previous CRT display
as measured on the ISOCENTER gauge.

Note: A clockwise turn on the vertical adjustment screw will move the tube up. A counter
clockwise adjustment will move the tube down.

Bolt down the tube mounting bolts to a torque of 30 +3.0 ft. lbs..

Repeat ISO Scans until the ISOCENTER specification is satisfied (i.e., 373.75 +0.02
channels).

111
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS HISPEED ADVANTAGE SYSTEM
Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

Note: If the ISO projects outside 373.75 +0.1 channels, you do not have to wait between tube
adjustment and the test scan.

If the ISO projects between +0.02 and +0.1 Channels, then wait 5 minutes after tube
adjustment before scanning.

If the ISO projects to be within 373.75 + 0.02 channels, wait 5 minutes then repeat scan to
verify that the results remain within spec.

Recheck POR at 10mm aperture to verify that plane on rotation has


CAUTION not changed. Remember to wait 5 minutes after last ISO Scan
before executing the plane of rotation recheck scan. If the plane of
rotation appears to have changed, DO NOT make any adjustments
in tube positioning, wait 30 minutes and repeat the plane of rotation
check again. If after the second check the plane of rotation appears
to have changed, make the necessary tube positioning adjustments
in order to be in specification and redo X–Ray beam to Detector
Window and ISO Center Alignments to ensure that they have not
changed.

DO NOT RECHECK RADIAL ALIGNMENT. If a rough ISO was done per procedure before
the radial alignment, the final ISO shouldn’t affect the radial adversely. ISO must be the last
tube adjustment.

9–9 Update Configuration Files With New Isovalues


Once the tube isocenter alignment is in spec, edit the ScanHardware.cfg file and the INFO
file as described below. The text and symbols used to denote unix commands, function keys,
etc. are defined as follows:

bold print – Words in bold type followed by <ENTER> means to type that word and then
press the ENTER key, e.g. root <ENTER>, means to type the word “root” and then press
the ENTER key.

<angles> – This type indicates that a value is DIFFERENT THAN INDICATED IN THIS
DOCUMENT, BUT WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF THE PROMPT. It also represents a function
key e.g. <suiteID> means to type in the actual suite ID.

This section presumes that the user knows how to use the “vi text
CAUTION editor”. Misuse of vi can seriously corrupt configuration files which
causes severe system problems. Commands for using vi are found
in direction 46–015523, SunOS / Genesis Quick Reference Guide.

9–9–1 Update ScanHardware.cfg


The ScanHardware.cfg file on both the OC and SBC must be updated with the new iso
values using the vi text editor. Proceed as follows:

112
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS HISPEED ADVANTAGE SYSTEM
Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

genesis @ <suiteID>_OC0 : cd /w/config <ENTER>


genesis @ <suiteID>_OC0 : vi ScanHardware.cfg <ENTER>

You are now in the ScanHardware.cfg text file on the OC. Use the “/” command to search
and find the variable with the iso value that must be changed . For example:

» Type the character /. It is echoed at the bottom line on the screen.


» Type isoSmallSpot behind the / character followed by a carriage return.
» vi places the cursor at the text string isoSmallSpot.
» Edit the small spot isocenter with the new value displayed by the system back in step 15.
of section 9–7.
» The large spot variable, called isoLargeSpot is just below the isoSmallSpot variable. Edit
the large spot isocenter with the new value displayed by the system back in step 11. of
section 9–7.
Next, edit the same 2 variables in the ScanHardware.cfg file on the SBC. Proceed as follows:

genesis @ <suiteID>_OC0 : rlogin <suiteID>_SBC0 <ENTER>


genesis @ <suiteID>_SBC0 : cd /w/config <ENTER>
genesis @ <suiteID>_SBC0 : vi ScanHardware.cfg <ENTER>

Edit the values for the variables isoSmallSpot and isoLargeSpot as you did for the OC
9–9–2 Update INFO File
The INFO file on the OC must be updated with the new iso value. Proceed as follows:

genesis @ <suiteID>_OC0 : cd /usr/local/bin <ENTER>


genesis @ <suiteID>_OC0 : vi INFO <ENTER>

Search on the same two variable names as described in the previous section (9–9–1). Edit
the small and large spot isovalues.

9–10 CBF and SAG


This procedure aligns the center of the body filter coincidence with isocenter alignment and
measures the change in alignment during a rotating scan. It reports the peak amplitude
difference in channel numbers as well as the hysteresis or difference in channel numbers
between first and last views of a scan.

Verify that the tube unit is cold. If you have executed any low
CAUTION technique scans prior to beginning CBF alignment, you must wait
at least 5 minutes before attempting this alignment procedure. If
you have previously executed image scanning and would like to
re–check CBF and SAG, you must wait at least 90 minutes to allow
the tube unit to cool, e.g., if the tube unit has had greater than 25
Kilojoules exposure KV x mA x Sec /1000 within the last 30 min.
Failure to heed this caution may result in inaccurate CBF and SAG
alignment

8. Enter exam #, series # and scan # for the scan file created in section 9–7, step 3. (large
iso pin scan). Enter suite ID.
9. Touch the |Accept| softkey.
The program will calculate CBF and display it along with recommendations for moving
the collimator if CBF is outside specifications. The program calculates and displays the
maximum channel difference, the azimuthal location of the channel difference, and the
difference between first and last views in channels. Record the information and then
press TOOLS button to exit the Tube Alignment program.
If the calculated CBF value is not in specification (373.75 +.2), the collimator will have to
be adjusted by the amount displayed on the CRT via the following steps:
a. Wait 5 minutes between exposures.
b. Mount the gauge and its nonmagnetic holding fixture to the special mounting bracket of
the collimator.
c. Zero out the gauge and loosen the four mounting bolts of the collimator which are located
at the four slotted holes of the collimator.
d. Adjust the 3/4 inch bolt (located at the end of the collimator) to move the collimator right
or left the required amount. Plasma displays CBF adjustments in up and down direction.
UP=Collimator movement to the right, and DOWN=collimator movement to the left.
e. Bolt down the collimator. The torque requirement on the four lock bolts is 10 +1.0 ft. lbs.
(120 +12 in. lbs.).

CHAPTER 10 – ZE SOFTWARE LOAD FROM COLD and


OC/SBC SYSTEM RECONFIGURATION

10–1 Introduction
ZE Load From Cold: Use sections 10–1 through 10–20–6 to load the Unix operating
system and ZE application software on the HiSpeed Advantage System. Follow this
document sequence to install the operating system. You will cause problems if you skip
steps or perform them out of sequence. The following procedure describes the CT OC and
SBC software installation procedure. This procedure uses the YP Master as its example,
because the YP Master is always the first machine installed in a Suite.

Note: You can supplement this procedure with the more detailed Installation User’s Manual,
Genesis Release 4.1 document.

Use the Load From Cold procedure to:

» Load software after a system installation or upgrade.


» Load software upgrades
» Change Hosttype
» Change Disk Partitions
» Add second disk drive to the OC (Requires a LFC because disk partitions change on
both drives)

Certain repairs and upgrades require a software LFC on either the OC or SBC.

» LFC on OC only: Section 10–22.


» LFC on SBC only: Section 10–23

Configure systems with pre–installed software: Sometimes the system is shipped with
all software loaded. If this is the case, run reconfig to reset the databases on both the OC
and SBC.

Note: Refer to IP Bulk memory documentation for the IP Bulk memory configuration procedure.

10–1–1 OC/SBC System Reconfiguration Introduction


Reconfigure systems with existing software: Sections 10–25 through 10–31 describe the
procedure to reconfigure the existing software of a HiSpeed Advantage system. You can
change most of the parameters you entered during a software Load From Cold, without
returning to the LFC procedure.

The OC/SBC System Reconfiguration contains the procedures which require the reconfig
program. Section 10–32 and 10–33 contain stand–alone scripts, used to Change system time
and Image Transfer hosts.

Use rconfig software to change the following parameters:

10–20 Network Configuration Information (Optional)


Run setAdoption when the OC or IC contains a gateway card, and the OC should transmit
and/or receive images to/from non–genesis hosts on the backbone network.

Section 10–20–1 describes the three network transfer types. A host may be able to Receive,
Transmit, or both Receive and Transmit Genesis Images. You designate each host’s transfer
type when you adopt it.

10–20–1 Types of Network Transfer


Three types of network transfer:
» RECEIVE – Designated host receives Genesis Images

129
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS HISPEED ADVANTAGE SYSTEM
Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

» TRANSMIT – Designated host sends Genesis images. Adopted DG Signas


(non–Genesis host/s) ‘TRANSMIT’ only.
» BOTH – Designated host receives and transmits Genesis Images.
When you adopt an Advantage Windows workstation, the software selects the ‘RECEIVE’
option, even though AW can both send and receive Genesis images. Because the
Advantage Windows workstation uses a non–genesis database, the genesis host cannot
display AW lists (exam/series/image). Advantage Windows are also adopted as PCs.

10–20–2 Adoption of non–Genesis suites and hosts:


If the host on which you are running setAdoption is both the YP Master and the Suite
Master, you may adopt non–Genesis suites and hosts.

If the host on which you are running setAdoption is the YP Master but not the Suite Master,
you may adopt non–Genesis or ID/NET II hosts.

If the host on which you are running setAdoption is the Suite Master but not the YP Master,
you may adopt non–Genesis suites.

10–20–3 Run setAdoption


Take down all applications before running setAdoption. Use sdservice.
<SuiteID> @ login: genesis <enter>
Password: <default genesis password>
genesis @ <SuiteID>: sdservice

Run setAdoption in root (su):


genesis @ <SuiteID>: su <enter>
Password: <root password>
root @ <SuiteID>: setAdoption

If you already adopted hosts or suites, the setAdoption software asks if you want to
un–adopt any previously adopted hosts or suites, before you adopt a new host. When you
run setAdoption for the first time on this host, the software displays the following questions:

Which non–Genesis Host(s)/Suite(s) do you wish to adopt?

1 = MR Signa(s), PC(s)

2 = ID/NET II host(s)

3 = Genesis host(s) in other networks {separated by routers}

Enter selection (1, 2, 3), or press <enter> when done adopting:

» For selection 1, proceed to section 10–20–4.


» For selection 2, proceed to section 10–20–5.
» For selection 3, proceed to section 10–20–6.

10–20–4 Adopt MR Signa, PC

4. When you complete the final question, the software displays the
following message:
Although application config files have been updated for <suiteID>, you MAY have to add
routing information to this host before network communications can be established. To
do this you will have to know the internet address of the ROUTER that connects
<suiteID> to this host’s network. For the purpose of example assume your routers
address is 111.111.111.111 and that <suiteID> is on the network cable JUST ON THE
OTHER SIDE OF the router ... (that means it’s 1 HOP away). Then you would probably
have to add a route command to the file /etc/rc.local that looks like this: route add
<Internet(IP) address> 111.111.111.111 1

Note: <Internet(IP) address> might need to be replaced with something less specific (like the
SUBNET address), in the event this host communicates with multiple hosts. Also, it may
require more HOPs. PLEASE consult with the network administrator.

CHAPTER 11 – IMAGE PERFORMANCE

11–1 Calibration
This section describes the procedure for evaluating image performance on the HiSpeed
Advantage System. Please note the following requirements:

a. All functional checks and service adjustments must be performed on the system prior to
image performance verification.
b. The system must be warmed up prior to scanning (minimum 2 hours)
c. All phantom CALs, except Q–Cal, used to create a CAL file must be completed within a
75 hour period of time.
d. Make sure the tube is warm by using the Tube Warm Up soft key, available from top level
plasma.

Note: You must execute the GENCAL scans that come after the warm up scans for the tube to
be sufficiently warm. DO NOT cancel after warm-up scans.

e. Verify that the vertical surface of the phantom is parallel to the gantry plane of rotation
within  0.5 in both the x and y axis. Scout scans, both 0o and 90o, must be used to
measure phantom position.
f. All phantoms must be centered axially to  0.12mm for phantom calibrations.
g. All phantoms must be centered axially to  1.00mm for phantom scans.

11–2 Q–CAL
Run the Q–Cal procedure before you start phantom calibration and scanning. Q–Cal
calculates a correction factor to compensate for tube temperature changes and X–Ray beam
movement across detector in the Z–axis. Run Q–Cal with a cold and hot tube, in order to
gather the full range of data needed to calculate the correction factor

Performing a Q–Cal destroys all old phantom CALS. In addition,


CAUTION turn ON the DAS power for at least 2 hours before you start
calibration.

Start with a very cold tube. Wait at least 90 minutes after the most recent scan before you
start Q–Cal. (This also means no tube warm–up.) You can run tests that do not interfere
with tube cooling during this wait.

Verify the mylar window is centered relative to the patient alignment lights. An improperly
centered mylar window could place one of the mylar window assembly’s metal bands in the
scan beam. The band could shade the detector, and cause Q–Cal to fail.

Begin at the top level plasma; to initialize tube cooling:


» Touch the |Cal| softkey.
» Touch the |Q–Cal| softkey.
» Touch the |Accept| softkey.
If an abort occurs during the “HOT” portion of the Q–Cal data collection phase:

» Exit the program and fix the problem.

145
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS HISPEED ADVANTAGE SYSTEM
Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

» Wait for at least one and one half hours before you start a new Q–Cal series.
If an abort occurs during the “COLD” portion of the Q–Cal data collection phase:

» Stop.
» Re–enter the program
» Continue with new series

Upon completion of Q–Cal, ZCHK calculation and comparison to applicable spec limits will
occur automatically. To examine the results of ZCHK initiate the following sequence of soft
keys from the top level plasma.

» Touch |Cal Functions|.


» Touch |Cal Tools|.
» Touch |Q–Cal Status|.
» Touch |Sort by kV|.

Verify that all Q–Cal vectors are valid.

11–3 Crosstalk Calibration


To begin crosstalk calibration execute the following sequence of soft keys beginning from the
top level plasma.

» Touch |Cal|.
» Touch |Crosstalk|.
» Touch |Accept|.
» Push Scan Enable when lit. This will initiate and complete four air scans
» When prompted, center the crosstalk phantom using the alignment lights. Then, raise
the table 180mm from the centered position.

Note: It is very important that the table is raised the full 180mm from the centered position.

» Touch |Accept|, to continue (Push Scan Enable when lit)


This will initiate the remaining scans required for crosstalk calibration. Complete the
scan, then use following sequence of softkeys to check the results of crosstalk
calibration.
» (From the top level plasma.) Touch |Cal|.
» Touch |Cal Status|.
» Touch |XTalk Status|.
» Touch |View XTalk|.

Verify that crosstalk passes all applicable specifications. If not, address problems rerun
crosstalk.

LEDs are provided to give a “feel” of the state the circuitry on the amplifier board. The
following LEDs receive pulses at various duty cycles (with the exception of DS PS) so they
vary in intensity from a fully on LED.

» DS67: On when the lower FET is commanded off. This LED indicates the presence of
logic drive to the isolated FET drive circuitry, not the state of the Q14’s gate direction.
» DS68: On when +24V is present on the amplifier board. If +24V is not present, the DC–
DC converter will not work, the relay cannot operate and there isn’t any drive voltage
present at the bridge.
» DS98: On when the lower FET is commanded off. This LED indicates the presence of
logic drive to the isolated FET drive circuitry, not the state of the Q155’s gate directly.

12–2–5 Heurikon Power–Up Self–Test


The CPU BOard will undergo a Power–Up Self–Test, which lasts approximately 30 seconds.
After the proper setting of the EPROMs, DIP switches and board jumpers, the CPU board will
be placed into a VME chassis. No other boards need be present.

Upon power up, the self–test begins, the LED display is at the value “E” and the test will
perform the Instruction Set and EPROM Checksum Test. When the test is done, the LED
value will proceed to the next descending value, “D”, and will perform the RAM Verification
Test. In the same manner, when this test is done, the LED value will proceed to “C”, then “B”,
then “A”, and finally to “9”. After the test at “9”, the self–test is done.

When the test is completed, the LED values displayed will indicate the tests that have failed.
It is noted that the LED values “B”, “A”, “9” will always be displayed after the test, because
the specific CT ZEUS hardware for these tests are not present. This is OK.

However, if the LED values “E”, “D” or “C” are displayed after the test, then there is an error,
and the board did not pass the self test. At this point, the EPROM’s DIP switch settings and
the board jumpers should be rechecked to ensure proper setup. Then the self–test should be
rerun. The board must pass this test before shipment.

be set in the disabled position, switched to the right.

» SQE OFF Jumper


When the transceiver is received from stock the jumper will more than likely be set up
incorrectly. If the jumper is in the wrong position the SQE LED on the transceiver will be
illuminated. What this is indicating is that the heartbeat test is enabled. There is a chance
that if the heartbeat test is enabled the system ethernet circuitry may not function correctly.

Set the jumper inside the ethernet to jumper between slots 4 and 5. This is the SQE OFF
setting.

None

12–36–2 AP120 Board LEDs


» Status
A bi–color status indicator LED is just below the reset button. When the board first
powers–up, the indicator is off. The LED turns yellow when all four onboard DSPs have
successfully begun diagnostic tests, and green upon completion.

213
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS HISPEED ADVANTAGE SYSTEM
Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

If the indicator remains off after power on, this indicates that at least one of the DSPs on the
board has a major failure and is unable to complete its initialization routine. If it remains
yellow, this indicates a diagnostic routine error.

» Bus Activity
The AP120 front panel has two green LED indicators just below the status indicator. The top
indicator reflects activity on the HSB and the lower indicator reflects activity on the VME bus.
Each indicator is illuminated when its bus is actively transmitting or receiving data. The LED
intensity is proportional to the duty cycle of the active to non–active state.

12–36–3 AP120 Board Switch Settings


» Reset
The AP120 has a manual reset switch on the front panel. This switch is useful in returning
the board to a known state after a system problem. During troubleshooting, use the reset
switch to reset the AP120 and start self tests.

12–36–4 Internal Cable Connections


The AP120 board has a front panel connector for the diagnostic processor; however, this is
not implemented and has no function as a diagnostic tool.

12–36–5 AP120 Board Configuration


» Setting Up the VMEbus Address
The front panel provides access to four rotary hexadecimal switches for programming the
VMEbus address of the board. These switches are preset at the factory to address
0xD0000000 and then sealed with plugs in the front panel. The service technician has no
access to these switches.

The AP120 always responds as an A32 slave. The APp120 responds as an A24 slave if the
A24 Decode Enable jumper is installed at location J3_1. If the jumper is removed, the
AP120Ap120 does not respond as an A24 slave. The board maps to a 4–Mbyte contiguous
region of the VME address space selected by the rotary switches. The J3_1 jumper and
rotary switches are on the component side of the board, see board layout.

» Setting Up High Speed Bus Jumpers


The HSB has nine header strips to configure the bus and clock connections. The headers
are all located together in an area represented by the shaded box near P2 on the board
layout diagram.

12–36–6 AP120 Board Jumper Settings


» AP120 MCS Header (J39_1, J39_2)
The AP120 MCS jumpers (J39_1 and J39_2) are installed if the AP120 being configured is
the MCS for the system. These headers have two rows of three pins. (Pin 1 is the topmost
pin on the right of the header.

Since the AP120 being configured is not the MCS for the system, remove the jumpers from
the J39_1 and J39_2 headers.

» Clock/Sync Receive Header (J41_1, J41_2)


The Clock/Sync Headers (J41_1 and J41_2) isolate the onboard clock circuitry from the
connector P2 row C. These headers have two rows of three pins. (Pin 1 is the topmost pin
on the right of the header.)

214
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS HISPEED ADVANTAGE SYSTEM
Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

Since the AP120 uses the high speed bus and receives clock 0, place the jumpers for the
clock/sync headers in the position shown in the board layout diagram.

» Use HSB/No HSB (J41_3)


The J41_3 header, three rows of three pins, uses 1x2 jumpers, which are placed in one of
the positions shown in the board layout diagram. Since the AP120 in the RPRp subsystem
uses the HSB, place jumpers in the pin 3 position.

» Bus Isolation Header (J51_1, J51_2, J50_3, J50_4)


The four large headers (J50_1, J50_2, J50_3, and J50_4) isolate the onboard HSB circuitry
from the connector P2 rows A & C. Each header has 18 rows. When a jumper must be
installed, use a 16–row shorting block installed over the center 16 rows.

The AP120 in the RPp uses the HSB, so place all four jumpers as shown in the board layout
diagram.

12–39–2 Motorola MVME167 Board (SBC) Switch Settings


The SBC has a manual reset switch and an abort switch on the front panel. The reset and
abort switches, which are useful in returning the board to a known state after a system
problem, are enabled by software. These switches are used in the following ways.

» Reset Switch
Pressing and releasing the front panel reset switch initiates a system reset. Cold and
warm reset modes are available. By default, 167Bug is in cold mode. During cold reset,
a total system initialization takes place, as if the SBC had just been powered up. All
static variables (including disk device and controller parameters) are restored to their
default states. The breakpoint table and offset registers are cleared. The target
registers are invalidated. Input and output character queues are cleared. Onboard
devices (timer, serial ports, etc...) are reset, and the first two serial ports are reconfigured
to their default state.
During warm reset, the 167Bug variables and tables are preserved, as well as the target
state registers and breakpoints.
Reset must be used if the processor ever halts, or if the 167Bug environment is ever lost
(vector table is destroyed, stack corrupted, etc...).
» Abort Switch
Abort is invoked by pressing and releasing the abort switch on the SBC front panel.
Whenever abort is invoked when executing a user program (running target code) a
“snapshot” of the processor state is captured and stored in the target registers. For this
reason, abort is most appropriate when terminating a user program that is being
debugged. Abort should be used to regain control if the program gets caught in a loop,
etc... The target PC, register contents, etc..., help to pinpoint the malfunction.
Pressing and releasing the abort switch generates a local board condition, which may
interrupt the processor if enabled. The target registers, reflecting the machine state at
the time the abort switch was pressed, are displayed on the screen. Any breakpoints
installed in your code are removed and the breakpoint table remains intact. Control is
returned to the debugger.

The SBC debugger has already been set up with controller and device descriptor tables for
network configuration, and this information is stored in the SBC’s Battery Backed Up RAM
(BBRAM). These tables (one for each controller/device LUN combination) are used by
.NETxxx system calls. The service technician who is installing the system must modify two
system–dependent parameters (Client IP Address and Server IP Address) in the descriptor
tables at the time of installation. These parameters do not require modification at any time
other than installation. To modify these parameters, enter the following 167Bug command at
the 167–diag prompt:

» NIOT
167Bug presents a series of prompts asking for values for the NIOT parameters. Most of
these parameters are already set correctly. At the prompt for Client IP Address, enter the
SBC IP address. At the prompt for Server IP Address, enter the OC IP address. The SBC
NIOT Settings table lists the correct SBC NIOT settings for the RP subsystem.

» General Purpose Readable Jumpers (J1)
The SBC can be configured with readable jumpers that can read as a register (at
0xFFF40088) in the VMEchip2 LCSR. MVME167Bug uses these bits. The bit values are
read as a 1 when the jumper is off, and a 0 when the jumper is on.

» System Controller Jumper (J2)


The SBC is the system controller. The system controller function is enabled and disabled by
jumpers on header J2. When the SBC is the system controller, the SCON LED is lighted.
The VMEchip2 is configured as system controller.

» Serial Port 4 Clock Configuration Select (J6 and J7)


Serial port 4 can be configured to use clock signals from the RTXC4 and TRXC4 signal lines.

during the self test, this LED remains constantly amber without flashing. Self test loop
mode is disabled for the RP subsystem as described under the heading Self Test Disable
(JST).

The HSDC has no front panel switches or buttons.

12–46–4 Internal Cable Connections


The HSDC board has one 50–pin shielded front panel connector (channel 0). It also has two
96–position DIN connectors (P1 and P2). These pins carry the VMEbus interface signals.

12–46–5 HSDC Controller Board Configuration


Configuring the high speed disk controller consists of circuit board jumper configuration. The
appropriate settings for the RP subsystem are given in this section.

» Board Labels/Revision Control


The Xylogics SV–6800 HSDC has a revision control label. The revision label is important
when discussing configuration issues.

12–46–6 HSDC Controller Board Jumper Settings


» Base Address Selection (JB2)
Jumper block JB2 controls the base address. Inserting a jumper makes the HSDC
respond to zero on that address line: removing a jumper makes the HSDC respond to a
one. Connect the jumper between similar pin numbers on each block. The HSDC uses
bits 1 through 3 to determine which register is being accessed. The HSDC is an A16
slave, and responds to address modifier 0x2D, and optionally to 0x29.
» Bus Request and Bus Grant Lines (JB3, JB4, JB5)
The HSDC used the Bus Request and Bus Grant Lines to become bus master. In
VMEbus arbitration, there are four Bus Request/Grant levels –– 0 through 3. The HSDC
drives one Bus Request line, according to the jumper scheme you choose. The arbiter
responds by driving the associated Bus Grant In Line (i.e. BG0IN responds to BR0). If
the HSDC receives a Bus Grant on any of the Bus Grant In Lines (BG0IN through
BG3IN), and is not requesting the bus on that line, it passes the grant to the appropriate
Bus Grant Out Line (BG0OUT through BG3OUT).
Select a request level by jumpering one bus request (BR0 through BR3), one Bus Grant
In, and one Bus Grant Out line to match the selected request level. Jumper the
remaining Bus Grant In/Out lines so that the incoming signal phases through the board
(for example, jumper BGxIN to BGxOUT, where x represents the remaining grant levels).
» Parallel Arbitration (JB4, JB5)
If you are using the HSDC in parallel arbitration, and the Bus Grant Out lines must be
isolated from the next slot’s Bus Grant lines, remove all jumpers between JB4 and JB5.
The RP subsystem does not use parallel arbitration.
» Self Test Disable (JST)
When jumper JST is installed, the HSDC operates in normal mode. On power–up, the
controller executes one pass of the self test diagnostic and then enters normal mode.
When the jumper is out, the controller operates in a self test loop mode. Check to
ensure that the jumper is in.
» AC–Fail Enable (JAC)
When jumper JAC is installed, the HSDC supports the ACFail* line as defined in the
VMEbus specification. If the ACFail* line is asserted, the HSDC halts disk activity, sets
the Fatal Error bit in the CSR, and reports an 0xF6 error code in the Fatal Error Register.
The factory configuration is out.

The product label shows the model number Seagate ST3390N.

The top bar code label is the serial number of the disk; for example, CV3398745.

The lower bar code label is the configuration part number for the local SCSI disk. For the RP
subsystem, this number is 917004–001.

12–47–6 ST3390 LSD Drive Jumper Settings


» Parity Enable Option (J12)
When a jumper is installed on pins 1 and 2 of the options jumper block (J12), the parity
block is used. Check to ensure that a jumper is installed here.
» Start/Stop Option (J12)
When a jumper is installed on pins 3 and 4 of the options jumper block(J12), the drive
waits for a start/atop unit command from the host before starting or stopping the spindle
motor. Check to ensure that this jumper is not installed.
» SCSI Address (J5)
Each device on the SCSI must have a unique SCSI ID. Because the SBC controls only
one SCSI drive, use SCSI ID0 (no jumper installed). When selecting the SCSI ID, you
can install jumpers on either (not both) the SCSI ID jumper block (J5) or the user
configuration jumper block (J8) pins 1 through 6. However, since the SCSI ID for the
LSD is 0, neither of these jumper blocks has jumpers installed.
» Terminator Power Source (J6)
To select the terminator power source, install jumpers on the terminator power source
jumper block. The RP subsystem provides terminator power to the SCSI connector and
the drive terminator packs. Check to ensure that jumpers are installed on pins 1 and 2
and pins 3 and 4 of J6 for this configuration.
» Active/Passive Termination (J9)
Installing a jumper on pins 1 and 2 of the active/passive termination jumper block selects
active termination. The terminating resistor packs must also be present. Check to
ensure that both the jumper and the three resistor packs are present.

» Local/Remote Jumper
Removing the plug from the local/remote jumper establishes the drive as a local drive
and disk spin up starts (after a delay) when power is applied. Placing a plug in the
jumper establishes the drive as a remote. Be sure that this plug is removed.
» Disable Read/Write Diagnostics Jumper

244
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS HISPEED ADVANTAGE SYSTEM
Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

Removing the plug from the disable read/write diagnostics jumper enables the internal
diagnostic program to perform read and write operations. Placing a plug in the jumper
prevents the internal diagnostic program from doing so. Be sure that this jumper is
removed.
» Microcode ID Jumpers
The microcode ID jumpers assign a unique device configuration code. The setting shown
is for 1,986 Mbyte drives.

12–48–9 Control Board Jumpers


» Enable Sweep Only On Seeks Jumpers (J12)
When a plug is installed on the Enable Sweep Only on Seeks Jumper, each sweep
segment is part of a controller–driven direct seek. This is the factory setting, do not
change this setting.
» Sweep Cycle Enable Jumper (J4B)
Placing a jumper on J4B enables sweep cycles at the drive level. If the jumper is
removed, sweep cycles are disabled and the system must use sweep cycles enabled at
the system or subsystem level. Be sure that this jumper is installed.
» Write Protect, Disable Ports, and Unit Selectors Jumpers (J4A)
Normally, the Write Protect jumper is removed. Installing the jumper prevents writing to
the drive. Be sure that the jumper is removed.
The Disable Port Jumpers are not installed at the factory. Installing a jumper in Disable
Port A or Disable Port B disables the port. Check to ensure that neither jumper is
installed.
» The Select Unit ID jumpers designate the ID of the system drive.
This is a 3–bit binary number representing an integer value of 0 through 7. Be sure the
unit ID is set to 0 (no jumpers installed).

GENERAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS:

» Wear Safety glasses at all times.


» Follow and use approved lifting methods.
» Observe Ryerson Road Standard Safety Protocol.
SPECIFIC SAFETY REQUIREMENTS:

» ANTISTATIC HANDLING
If the boards are not in the DAS, or in a conductive bag, you must wear a wrist strap
when you handle DAS Boards. Never place boards on non–conductive surfaces, such
as white bench tops, plastic covered books or non–conductive plastic bags.
» CLEANLINESS
Any dirt on the surface increases leakage current on the filter or converter cards, and will
cause the DAS to fail the drift spec. All testers must use white cotton gloves, or the
board extractor, when inserting or removing boards from DAS. Finger prints on the board
will cause trouble when humidity is high.

Counterbalancing Gas Spring

Note: Due to alignment and dimensional variations, you may have to remove the Gantry Front
cover in order to replace a Gantry Gas Spring. Although the front cover assembly
weighs less than 200 lbs, the task requires three people for a short period of time.

1. Position table to lowest elevation.


2. Remove, and set aside, both gantry side covers.
3. Turn off all three (3) switches on the status control box, on right side of gantry.
4. Remove scan window.
5. Engage Indexer Pin, and lock gantry
6. On the right side of the gantry:
a Remove the two (2) flat head screws that fasten the spacer block to the Base’s hard
stop.
b Leave the spacer sitting in position for the time being.
7. Tilt the gantry until the front stop on the pivot sector touches the loose spacer block left in
position on the Base, as described in step 6.
8. Stop tilting, and remove the spacer block.

System specifications require the gantry to tilt a minimum of


CAUTION 30.25 degrees. The gantry meets this requirement with the spacer
block in position. When you remove the spacer block, the gantry
can tilt forward more than 30.25 degrees. HOWEVER, when you
remove the spacer block, the gas springs should prevent the gantry
hardstops from meeting. DO NOT force the gantry hard stops to
meet, or you may damage and rupture the gas springs.

339
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS HISPEED ADVANTAGE SYSTEM
Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

9. As you continue to tilt, remember to monitor Gas Spring Length and watch out for Front
Cover Interference:
a Gas Spring Length – Wiggle both gas springs as the two hard stops approach each
other. Stop when one of the gas springs feels unloaded reaches full extension.
» IMPORTANT: Monitor both gas springs to ensure they don’t extend past their
fully extended length.
b Front Cover interference – Due to dimensional variation in the Front Cover assembly,
the Front Cover and/or Front Cover hinge doors may come in contact with the Gantry
Base before you can tilt the Gantry far enough to exchange a gas spring. Monitor the
relationship between the front fiberglass covers and the Gantry Base (on both sides
of the Gantry) while you tilt the Gantry. If interference occurs, STOP TILTING.
10. If you do NOT encounter interference, proceed to step 13.
11. IF you encounter interference:
a Return gantry to an upright position (zero degrees of tilt)
b Follow the Remove Front Cover procedure on page 340.
12. Remove Front Cover:
a Return gantry to zero degrees of tilt.
b Lift top cover, and engage prop rod.
c Open front cover.
d Disconnect the electrical connection near the top hinge, on the left side of the gantry.
e Remove the Front Cover: (requires three people)
» Two people lift and hold the front cover.
» The third person removes the two hinge pins on the left side of the gantry.
f Place the front cover horizontally on a clean protected surface.
» Spread a blanket, or other protective covering on the floor.
» Take care not to scratch the surface of the cover.
g Disengage the top cover prop rod and gently lower the top cover down onto the
gantry.
» DO NOT ROTATE THE GANTRY WITH THE TOP COVER PROPPED OPEN. If
you leave the top cover propped open, it may fall rearward when you tilt the
Gantry.
h Repeat steps 7. to 9.
13. Remove the two (2) retaining clips from the ends of the gas spring that has reached full
extension – even if it you do not plan to replace it.

Note: Remove the retaining clips before you remove the gas spring.

14. Grasp the gas spring near the top end fitting, and firmly pull away from the gantry. Once
you free the top end fitting, continue pulling to free the bottom end fitting.
15. If you need to remove the second gas spring, continue to tilt the gantry until the second
gas spring reaches full extension.
a Remove the two (2) retaining clips from the ends of the gas spring.
b Grasp the gas spring near the top end fitting, and firmly pull the top and bottom ends
away from the gantry.
16. Clean and inspect the ball studs.

340
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS HISPEED ADVANTAGE SYSTEM
Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

a Remove and replace worn or damaged ball studs.


b Use Loctite 242 on the replacement ball stud(s), and torque to 40 ft–lbs. ( 0.0384
m–kg)
17. Inspect the new gas spring(s), and tighten the end fittings, if necessary.

Note: If you removed both gas springs, replace the first gas spring on the side with the greatest
distance between ball studs. Then, tilt toward zero degrees until the second gas spring
fits onto the other two ball studs.

18. Tilt the gantry until the gas spring fits onto the two (2) ball studs.
a Install the gas spring in the rod down/tube up position.
b Firmly press the top and bottom end fitting around its ball stud.
c Replace the retaining clip on each end fitting, taking care to position the clip through
the opening in each end fitting.
19. Verify system meets the 30.25 tilt requirement with the new gas spring(s):
a Try to insert the spacer block between the base and pivot sector hardstops.
b Acceptable: If you CANNOT insert the spacer block between the two hardstops,
then the gas spring installation length is ACCEPTABLE.
c Unacceptable: If you CAN insert the spacer block, add a spacer.
» increase the gas spring length with a flat washer.
» Washer: P/N 1000904P489 – 0.328 ID/ 0.500 OD/ 0.062 Thk
» Remove one end fitting and install one flat washer, as a spacer.
» Apply Loctite 242 and tighten the end fitting.
» Adjust the tilt and install the gas spring.
» Again, use the spacer block to test tilt capability.
20. After you install the new gas spring(s):
a Return the gantry to the zero degree tilt position, as indicated by the tilt indicator
bracket, on the right side of the Gantry.
b Use the two (2) flat head screws to refasten the spacer block to the Base hard stop.
21. If you removed the Front Cover:
a Lift the Top Cover, and engage the prop rod
b Replace Front Cover, and reconnect the electrical connection
c Adjust/align Front Cover
d Lower Top Cover
22. Check Gantry tilt with new gas spring(s):
a Remember to CLOSE THE TOP COVER, if you propped it open to replace the Front
Cover.
b Tilt the gantry to +30 degrees and –30 degrees, as indicated by the display monitor
located on top of the Front Cover.
23. Reassemble Gantry.

GENERAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS:

Wear Safety glasses at all times.

Use approved lifting methods.

Observe Ryerson Road Standard Safety Protocol.

SPECIFIC SAFETY REQUIREMENTS:

ANTISTATIC HANDLING

If the boards are not in the DAS, or in a conductive bag, you must wear a wrist strap when
you handle DAS Boards. Never place boards on non–conductive surfaces, such as white
bench tops, plastic covered books or non–conductive plastic bags.

CLEANLINESS

Any dirt on the surface increases leakage current on the filter or converter cards, and will
cause the DAS to fail the drift spec. All testers must use white cotton gloves, or the board
extractor, when inserting or removing boards from DAS. Finger prints on the board will cause
trouble when humidity is high.

The ETC slip ring brushes, made of Polymet AG material, contain silver and a trace of
cadmium. The S/A slip ring brushes are made of Carbon and Carbon Silver. Refer to the
corresponding MSDS for a description of these materials.

Note: All exposure surveys, conducted during service procedures and system operation,
reported levels of silver and cadmium well below the occupational exposure limits for
these materials.

Take care to avoid contact, inhalation and ingestion of slip ring debris whenever you work
with slip ring components. Take the following steps when you handle slip ring material:

1. Wear Neoprene or nitrile gloves, to limit irritation and ingestion of metallic dust.
» Do NOT remove gloves near an exposed slip ring. The powder inside the gloves can
contaminate the ring.
» Gloves: Large (Qty 100) 46–194427P347
» Gloves: XL (Qty 100) 46–194427P348
2. Use a HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) vacuum cleaner to remove residual brush
debris.
» HEPA vacuum Cleaner: 46–297933P1
» HEPA filter: 46–297948P1
3. Use the HEPA vacuum cleaner to remove all existing brush debris from the brush blocks,
brackets and slip ring covers before you service the slip ring brush assemblies.
4. Use the HEPA vacuum cleaner to remove all existing brush debris from the gantry base
and floor after you reassemble the slip ring covers.
5. Wash your hands thoroughly after you service any slip ring components.

SPECIFIC SAFETY REQUIREMENTS:

401
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS HISPEED ADVANTAGE SYSTEM
Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

ANTISTATIC HANDLING

If the boards are not in the DAS, or in a conductive bag, you must wear a wrist strap when
you handle DAS Boards. Never place boards on non–conductive surfaces, such as white
bench tops, plastic covered books or non–conductive plastic bags.

CLEANLINESS

Any dirt on the surface increases leakage current on the filter or converter cards, and will
cause the DAS to fail the drift spec. All testers must use white cotton gloves, or the board
extractor, when inserting or removing boards from DAS. Finger prints on the board will cause
trouble when humidity is high.

Note: Before you install the system components, make sure the site meets the requirements
described in Preinstallation manuals: 2126732 (systems with gantry/table leveling feet
and/or GPDU 2113764), or 46–18301 (systems with steel baseplates, original PDU and
REM box.)

A1–1 Install Gantry and Table without steel baseplates

A1–1–1 Overview
The following procedure instructs you to position, level and anchor the gantry and table in
baseplate–free HSA CT systems. Instead of baseplates, adjustable leveling pads support
the gantry and table. The gantry has four leveling pads, and the table has five leveling pads.

Use a room–layout template to determine the position of the gantry and table. Position the
gantry first, then position the table relative to the gantry, with three alignment bars. Finally,
level and anchor the system.

Baseplate–free systems no longer use the template to locate and drill the anchor holes. Use
the system to determine hole location, and drill them with the gantry and table in place.
Illustrations A–1 and A–2 depict this procedure. Sections A1–2 and A1–3 list items
required to install an HSA system per this procedure. Please read, and follow, this procedure.

A1–1–2 Floor And Room Preparation


Support areas of the main table and gantry must rest on solid concrete, or other basic
flooring, not on resilient tile or carpeting. Resilient tile or carpet may slowly yield over a
period of time, and disturb the table/gantry alignment.

No part of the floor surface within the table, gantry, or the two interface areas between table
and gantry, should rise above the table/gantry support areas.

The floor structure must withstand both 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.

Note: If you have to remove gantry covers to maneuver the gantry into the scan room, refer to
section A1–5–4.

A1–1–3 Pre–Installation Template


Use the two–piece room–layout paper template, P/N 2106475, to plan the site. The template
shows the location of the gantry and table, along with the required operating and service
clearances. Although the template shows the locations of the anchor holes (both primary and
redundant) for floor structure considerations, just use it to locate the first hole. Do NOT use
the template to locate and drill the rest of the anchor holes.

A1–2 Installation Tool Kit


Installation personnel: Use installation tool kit, P/N 2110953, which contains the following
special tools (See Illustrations A–1 on page 515 and A–2 on page 516):

» Guide Pin Bolt, P/N 2106495: use to position the gantry over its first anchor hole.
» Long Alignment Bar #3 (in two pieces), P/N 2106369: use to position the table, relative
to the gantry.

509

A1–4 Detailed Procedure

A1–4–1 Establish the Room Layout:


1. Make sure all operating and service clearances shown on the templates are available.
Note the locations of the anchor holes with regard to any structural elements of the floor.
2. Clean the area, remove carpet/tile flooring as shown on the templates, and remove any
old baseplates. The mounting surface must be free of material which may interfere with
the positioning and leveling of the system.
3. Lay out the two paper templates. Spread out the Gantry template first, and align it with
any existing cable trough, if necessary. Tape the template to the floor. Now, spread the
table template over top, align the scan and table centerlines, and tape it to the floor.

A1–4–2 Drill the First Gantry Anchor Hole:


1. The next step fixes the front left corner of the gantry. If you cannot use this anchor hole,
due to interference from reinforcement rods in the concrete or other interference, move
the Gantry (and templates) to another location.

510
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS HISPEED ADVANTAGE SYSTEM
Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

2. Drill the left front gantry anchor hole, at location #1. See illustration A–3.
a. Drill one 13mm (1/2”) diameter, 110 mm (4 3/8”) deep, hole at the location shown on
the gantry template.
b. Important: drill the anchor holes perpendicular to the floor. Assign one person to
monitor the perpendicular position of the drill, while the second person drills the hole.

c. Stop the drill periodically to clear debris from the hole, to prevent binding.
3. Vacuum all debris from the hole:
a. Place the funnel tip inside the hole.
b. Place the vacuum hose in the funnel.
4. When you finish drilling, vacuum the debris from the surrounding area.

A1–4–3 Position the Gantry:


1. Remove all the transportation packaging, except dollies, from the gantry.
2. Locate, and remove, the adjuster shipping bolt from the left front corner of the gantry
base. Replace the shipping bolt with the guide pin bolt, that also threads into the leveling
pad.
3. Wheel the Gantry into position, as shown on the template:
a. Position the guide pin over the anchor hole.
b. Position the leveling pads against the base, as shown in Illustration A–6, before you
lower the gantry into place.
c. Use the dollies to evenly lower the gantry, until the guide pin extends into the hole.
Stop when the leveling pads reach approximately 3 mm above the floor.
d. If necessary, use the guide pin and hole as a pivot point, and carefully rotate the
gantry into position over the template.
Position the Gantry –continued–
4. Remove, and discard, the paper templates.
5. Lower the gantry to the floor, and remove the dollies.
6. Remove the guide pin bolt from the left front adjuster.
7. Remove the other three adjuster shipping bolts.

A1–4–4 Level the Gantry:


1. Before leveling operations begin, check the accuracy of the levels. Place the level on a
flat surface. Take note of the bubble’s specific location within the glass cylinder. Now
rotate the level end for end (maintaining the same mounting surface on the level) and
place it in the same position. If the bubble comes to rest in the same location within the
glass cylinder, the level is acceptable for use. If not, the level is unacceptable for use and
must be adjusted (if possible) or replaced.
2. Loosen all the adjuster lock rings, see illustration A–1. To loosen, place the screwdriver at
an angle in the slot of the lock ring and strike the screwdriver with the hammer in the
direction to loosen the lock ring.
3. Systematically rotate through the “A,” “B” and “C” locations to level the gantry. (See
Illustration A–3).
4. Level the gantry until all three readings show the bubble centered between the lines on
the glass cylinder.

511
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS HISPEED ADVANTAGE SYSTEM
Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

Note: Each of the four adjusters must carry a portion of the gantry weight. ANY unloaded or
floating adjusters could allow the gantry to rock, or permit the base frame to twist when
you tighten the anchors. Because the leveling pads currently rest against the bottom of
the base, the gantry resides at its lowest possible height, and all leveling raises the
gantry. If you positioned the gantry in a “valley” on the floor, you may have to initially
raise the gantry, so you can raise the table, which may not be in the “valley”, during its
leveling procedure.
» Use a 9” torpedo level to level Gantry location “A.” Use a 4’ level to level the Gantry at
locations “B” and “C.” Each location has two machined extensions welded to the base.
The 4’ level bridges these two extensions. See illustration A–3.
» Remember to wipe the leveling surfaces clean prior to leveling. Make sure the level sits
flat on the machined portion of the extensions, and does not ride up onto the neighboring
fillets or welds.
» Use the adjusters to level the gantry. Use the adjuster tool, 11/8” socket and the 1/2” drive
socket wrench to turn each adjuster. Use the mark on top of the adjuster as an aid in
incrementing the adjuster’s rotation.
» Use adjusters #1 and #2 to level location “A.” See illustration A–3.
» Use adjusters #3 and #4 to level location “B.”
» Use adjuster pairs #1 & #2 and #3 & #4, on each side of the gantry, to level location “C.”
Adjust each set a maximum of 1 turn, at a time.

A1–4–5 Position the Table:


1. Remove all the transportation packaging, except dollies, from the table.
2. Wheel the table into approximate position, relative to the gantry. Before you lower the
table into place, make sure the leveling pads rest against the base (see Illustration A–6).
Lower the table until the leveling pads reach approximately 3 mm above the floor.
3. Remove the table left, and right, upper side covers, and the four side panels. Disconnect
the ground straps at the z–channel. Also, remove the table base cover center support
bar.
4. Assemble two halves of long alignment bar, #3, by inserting the pin and rotating the handle.
Note that the halves are matched sets, and the serial number on each half of the bar must
be the same. Make sure the joint is tight after the handle has been rotated. If the joint is loose,
tighten the tip of the expanding pin to expand it to a larger diameter.
The short alignment bars, #1 and #2, are identical and interchangeable.
5. Adjust the position of the table, as needed, until the three alignment bars fit into the 3/4”
alignment holes in the gantry base, and the 1/2” alignment holes in the table base, as
shown in Illustration A–2. Install the short alignment bars first. Pivot the far end of the
table until the long alignment bar fits. Firmly seat all the bars on their mating surfaces.
6. Once the alignment bars are in place, lower the table to the floor, and remove the
transportation dollies. Temporarily remove alignment bar #1 so you can remove the front
dolly. Replace the alignment bar after you remove the dolly.
7. Remove the five adjuster shipping bolts, and loosen the lock rings.

CAUTION Take extreme care to prevent damage to the ETC and CPU PWAs.

512
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS HISPEED ADVANTAGE SYSTEM
Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

A1–4–6 Level the Table:


1. Systematically rotate through the “D,” “E” and “F” locations to level the table to the
gantry. (See Illustration A–3).
2. Level the table until all three readings show the bubble centered between the lines on the
glass cylinder.

Note: Level the table at locations #7, #8 and #9. Loosen, and unload, the adjusters at locations
#5 and #6d. Because the leveling pads currently rest against the bottom of the base, all
leveling raises the table.

» Use the 4’ level at all the table leveling locations. Place the level on the machined
surfaces of the alignment bars. Clean the machined surfaces, and do not rest the level
on the radiused surface on alignment bar #3.
» Use the adjusters and adjuster tool the same way you used them on the gantry.
» Make initial measurements at the three locations, and map out the adjustments
necessary to make these three locations level.
» Use adjuster #9 to level location “D.” See illustration A–3.
» Use adjuster #8 to level location “E.”
» Use adjuster #7 to level location “F.”

A1–4–7 Tighten the Lock Rings:


1. Recheck the “A” through “F” leveling locations. Use location “G” to verify table levelness.
Make sure adjusters at location #1 through #4 carry some load.
2. At table locations #5 and #6, screw each adjuster to tighten it against its leveling pad.
Without unloading any of the other table adjusters, tighten location #5 and #6 adjusters a
little more than hand tight.
3. Tighten the lock rings at locations #1 through #7, with the hammer and screwdriver.

A1–4–8 Drill the Remaining Anchor Holes:


1. Remove the gantry scan window, and prop open the top cover.
2. Open both front and rear gantry covers.
3. Use the 13mm (1/2”) bit to drill the remaining six anchor holes, at locations #2 through #7,
with the system in place. Place the drill bushing inside each adjuster to keep the hole
vertical, and centered within the adjuster. Important: Place the drill bushing inside the
adjuster of the location #5, #6 and #7 table anchor holes, to allow the maximum amount
of horizontal alignment capacity to center the cradle on isocenter during system testing.

Note: Use a piece of tape to mark the drill bit 195 mm (711/16”) from the tip, to indicate hole
depth.

4. Drill each hole until the mark on the drill bit reaches the top of the drill bushing.
5. Stop the drill, and clear each hole several times, to prevent binding.

Note: Vacuum all debris from the inside of each hole. Place the funnel tip inside the hole, and
the vacuum hose in the funnel. Vacuum the debris from the surrounding area when you
finish drilling.

TAKE CARE NOT TO INJURE YOURSELF ON THE GANTRY COVER


BRACKETS.
WARNING

513
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS HISPEED ADVANTAGE SYSTEM
Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

Care must also be taken when drilling at location #7 to avoid hitting


CAUTION the actuator motor lead. Remove lead if necessary. Also, place a
piece of cardboard over the ETC and CPU PWA’s to prevent damage
and dust contamination.

Note: No anchor holes are drilled at locations #8 and #9. These locations provide compressive
support for the table, but are not anchored.

A1–4–9 Use the Redundant Anchor Hole Locations:


If you cannot use an anchor hole within an adjuster, due to interference from reinforcement
bars in the concrete, or other interference, use the redundant anchor location, shown in
Illustration A–4. Follow the same procedure, outlined above, but mark the drill with tape at
170 mm (611/16”).

Note: The minimum gantry anchoring requirement is four anchors, one in each corner. The
minimum table anchoring requirement is three anchors, one each at locations #5, #6 and
#7.

A1–4–10 Install the Anchors:


6. Use only (P/N 2106573) Hilti Kwik–Bolt II, 1/2” diameter by 8” long anchors.
7. Remove the three alignment bars, and re–pack the install kit.
8. Before you install the anchors, add the 1/4” thick washer under the regular anchor
washer, and position the nut, as shown in Illustration A–5.
9. Place an anchor in each hole and hammer the anchor downward until the anchor is fully
inserted as shown in Illustration A–5.
10. Tighten all the anchors at locations #1 through #7 and torque to 75 6 N–m (55 5
ft–lbs).
11. Re–install any table part you removed during the installation, including covers, ground
straps, and the center support bar. Close all Gantry covers, and re–install the scan
window.
12. Remove gantry shipping bolts and brackets per Illustration A–10.

1. Check, and clean, the two guide holes in the cradle or, for Metal–free cradle, Check, and
clean, the guide slot in the cradle end.
2. Place cradle in the un–extended position.
3. Use the two guide holes to mount the phantom holder to the cradle or, for Metal–free
cradle, Insert the tab on the phantom holder, into the slot on the end of the cradle, to
mount the phantom holder to the cradle.
4. Clamp the holder in position with the draw catch, located at the bottom of the holder.
5. Verify the holder mounts solidly against the end of the cradle.
6. Use a mechanic’s level to verify the front surface of the phantom mounting block is
vertical +1, –0.
7. If the angle exceeds 91:
a. Check for washers behind the mounting block.

534
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS HISPEED ADVANTAGE SYSTEM
Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

b. If you find any washers, remove them, and recheck the angle.
c. If you can’t find any washers, check the phantom holder for interference between the
holder and the cradle.
8. For angles less than 90: Add washers to the rear of the phantom mounting block, and
the phantom holder or, for Metal–free cradle, Use the adjustment on the back of the
phantom holder to increase the angle of the mounting block.
9. Remove, and reinstall, the phantom holder.
10. Verify that the angle remains within the specified range.

Note: The specified tolerance on the vertical angle is only valid when the cradle is
un–extended, and the holder has no phantoms mounted to it. These two external factors
can effect cradle deflection, and may result in an out–of–tolerance condition on the
phantom holder angle.

Recommended: Quickly recheck the phantom holder angle whenever you mount the
phantom holder to the cradle.

Note: The phantom holder may not meet specifications when you mount phantom to the holder.
Because each phantom is different, you may have to shim it, to keep it vertical during
phantom scans and calibration.

A1–11 System Ground Connections


Refer to Illustration A–22 for Vx Preferred Systems with Global PDU and Illustration A–23 for
HSA Systems with original PDU with REM Box for the following dicussion.

At this point, you MUST physically inspect the System Ground wire run between A1 and
VAULT Ground. The wire used must be at minimum, #1/0 gauge stranded copper. Be
certain that power is OFF at A1, then disconnect the incoming Ground wire (located at the
top of the isolated ground block) in A1. Ask the electrician to show you the Ground VAULT
connection, and disconnect the wire from that point. Use a Beckman 3030 or equivalent, to
measure the resistance between the open wire and the VAULT ground bar. Use the High
ohm range. If there is ANY continuity, the wire is tied to conduit, or other buss bar, in an
intermediate panel or panels. This causes excessive ground currents, and can NOT be
tolerated. The CT system ground MUST be totally isolated between A1 and the VAULT
ground. If you have any questions, contact your District CT engineer for assistance.

Arrange for electrical code inspection.

A1–12 HSA with Global PDU – Power, Ground, Interconnect Cable


Installation
The individual component layout, and site construction (conduit, floor duct, wall duct, or a
raised computer floor) help determine the system cabling sequence.

As much Contractor supplied wiring should be completed, as possible, before you start to
cable the system. Install system ground cables along with the system cables. If the site
uses raceway, position the equipment and finish the cabling, before you cut and fit covers at
individual equipment locations.

The system furnished cables ship with the system.

A1–12–1 Cable Identification


All system cables (except ground wires) use the system component designators listed below.
Each end of a system cable has a label, and color, near the connector, that indicates the
component, and jack identifier of the component.

A1–13 System Cable Check Lists for HSA Z.x Configurations w/Global PDU
This section lists the system cables you have to install. The list contains all system cables, and
cables for the three most common options. Use the tables as a checkoff for each component,
when you cable it.

Keep signal and control cables away from power cables and power wiring. If the site uses a
cable raceway, place the signal and power cables separate sections of the raceway.

Some components have room for excess cable length storage. If the site does not have a
raised computer floor, you may have to provide a separate means of excess cable storage.

All contractor wiring should be complete to the point of equipment placement.

Check all connections; make sure they are securely fastened. Use suitable tools and
judgment. Include all visible connections, especially ground connections.

Check for reasonable cable routing, remember to leave service loops for equipment
maintenance, etc. Make the cable installation look as neat as possible.

A1–14 HSA w/Original PDU & REM Box – Pwr, Gnd, Cable Installation
The individual component layout, and site construction (conduit, floor duct, wall duct, or a raised
computer floor) help determine the system cabling sequence.

As much Contractor supplied wiring should be completed, as possible, before you start to cable the
system. Install system ground cables along with the system cables. If the site uses raceway,
position the equipment and finish the cabling, before you cut and fit covers at individual equipment
locations.

The system furnished cables ship with the system.

A1–14–1 Cable Identification


All system cables (except ground wires) use the system component designators listed below. Each
end of a system cable has a label, and color, near the connector, that indicates the component, and
jack identifier of the component.

A1–15 System Cable Checklists

A1–15–1 System Cable Check Lists for HSA Z.x Configurations without
Global PDU
This section lists the system cables you have to install. The list contains all system cables, and cables for
the three most common options. Use the tables as a checkoff for each component, when you cable it.

Keep signal and control cables away from power cables and power wiring. If the site uses a cable
raceway, place the signal and power cables separate sections of the raceway.

Some components have room for excess cable length storage. If the site does not have a raised
computer floor, you may have to provide a separate means of excess cable storage.

All ground wires and other contractor wiring should be complete to the point of equipment placement.

Check all connections; make sure they are securely fastened. Use suitable tools and judgment.
Include all visible connections, especially ground connections.

Check for reasonable cable routing, remember to leave service loops for equipment maintenance, etc.
Make the cable installation look as neat as possible.

Note: Option keys contain a static–sensitive chip. Treat them as you would any electronic chip or circuit
board, and avoid exposing keys to magnetic fields.

To install an option key:

1. Open the OC pedestal panel, and locate the key slots.


2. To bring applications down display the Utilities menu and, press |Shutdown| .
3. Insert option keys in any position, in any row, except the top one, which is reserved for security
keys. Use caution when inserting keys, to avoid bending the pins in the key.
4. To bring applications back up, type “st” at the Genesis level prompt. Then press Enter.

A1–16–2 Verify Installed Options


Bring up applications and check the screens to see which features are enabled:

» If the system has no Smart Tools key, it won’t have a SmartPrep button on the home screen.
» If the system has no Cine/Helical key, the software permits Cine or Helical scans of up to 40
seconds. With the key, the limit increases to 60 seconds.
» If the system has no Power key, the software permits only 700mm scouts (not 1000mm), 2 Sec.
ISDs (not 1 second), and 32 kW (not 48 kW). Also, the 100 kV button is not visible.
» If the system has no DentaScan key, then the DentaScan button on the Image Analysis screen
appears as an unavailable dashed box.

CHAPTER B1 – APPENDIX: TORQUE

B1–1 Recommended Torque Wrench Practices


1. Never use a torque wrench to loosen a tightened fastener.
Permanent damage of the internal mechanism can occur due to excessive strain.
2. Always approach the specified torque slowly. This is not a speed wrench.

a.) Hand location is important. Position one hand at the axis of rotation and one hand on
the tool handle. This give the user stability and accurate torque repeatability.

b.) Always approach the desired torque evenly and slowly. If the desired torque is 66
N–m on 4 bolts, then tighten each bolt 50 to 70% of desired value. Then set the wrench
to the required torque and tighten slowly until the wrench “Just Clicks”.
3. Always release the tension on the torque wrench to prevent “spring set” on adjustable or
“clicker” type torque wrenches. This will ensure correct torque settings throughout the
range of the tool.
4. Always allow the tool to reach room temperature.
– Spring tension is the basis of “Clicker” type torque wrenches.
– A spring’s tension changes with temperature.
5. Calibrate the tool on a regular schedule.
Follow established local calibration processes.
6. Do not drop or shock the tool.
Internal damage can occur. Calibration should be performed to ensure accuracy.
7. Do not attempt to straighten a bent “Beam” or non adjustable wrench. Replace it.
8. Never use a “Universal Joint” with a torque wrench.
The angle of the universal joint can change the torque value by more than 50%.
9. Always use the torque wrench with a 90 degree angle whenever possible.
a.) Illustration 3 illustrates the effects not being perpendicular.
b.) The 25 degree tilt is the physical limit of a Bondhus Ball End Hex key.
c.) Use the specified torque value for the HV tank mounting fasteners. Do not attempt to
calculate the sin angle correction.
There is less than 2% error for up to 10 degrees of tilt from the desired angle.
d.) Minimize the angle as much as possible.
10. Always clean fastener threads to reduce friction.
Fasteners should thread easily using finger pressure.
a.) Replace fasteners or clean threads using a tap or die, compressed air, brass brush.
b.) Never use a tap to clean thread inserts. It will damage them requiring replacement.
11. Never lubricate a fastener unless specifically instructed.
Loctite is considered in the design. It must be used when specified.
12. Replace Nylon nuts if they are finger loose.
13. ALL FASTENERS HAVE A TORQUE REQUIREMENT. DEFAULT TABLES SHOULD BE
USED ONLY IF THE SERVICE DOCUMENTATION DOES NOT SPECIFY A TORQUE
VALUE.

B1–2 General Torque Cross Reference


Table 1 and Table 2 are provided as default references only. Use the appropriate
replacement procedure to verify the correct torque requirement for each specific fastener.

597
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS HISPEED ADVANTAGE SYSTEM
Rev. 10 DIRECTION 46–018304

Note: The Illustrated Parts List contains Engineering drawings that should also be used as a
reference. These drawings call out specific instructions as notations, where needed.

Use Table 1 and Table 2 only as a last resort. If the Service


ATTENTION documentation does not contain specific torque values, the default
values can then be assumed to apply.
All Fasteners use either “flat and lock washers” or loctite. These items
must be used as specified.

Many service operations on this CT scanner require a torque wrench. The use of a torque
wrench may appear complicated because there are several standards and metrics. Using
conversion factors and the conversion chart below can simplify that task.

First, only use a calibrated torque wrench. Use a torque wrench that is on a Calibration
schedule and is approved by GEMS–AM Service. The kit that can be used that is on a
regular Calibration schedule is kit number 46–268445G1. This torque wrench kit has
wrenches that measure inch pounds and foot pounds.

Second, make any necessary conversions for the torque wrench you are using.The units of
measure are typically marked on most torque wrenches. To make conversions to Kgcm and
Newton meters, use the following conversion table, or calculate using conversion factors.

B1–3 Torque Formula


T = R x F x sin (angle)

Where: T = Torque in N–m


R = Distance from axis of rotation
F = Force Applied
Sin(90) = 1

From this formula we can see that it is necessary to apply the force at a 90 degree angle to
the axis of rotation to achieve accurate fastener torque. This same principle can be applied
when using accessories with the torque wrench. See Illustration 1 and Illustration 2.

Note: The length of a standard square drive extension has no effect on torque since it is along
the axis of rotation. See Illustration 3.

B1–4 Torque Wrench Accuracy


It needs to be clearly understood that "torque" is an indirect measure of tension or "preload
force”. The components of a bolted joint can be defined as:

» Preload force (Fp), bolt stretch.


» Tension force (Ft), resistance of bolted materials.
» Clamping force (Fc), difference of preload and tension forces.
» Shear force (Fs), sideways or sliding force of bolted materials.
Therefore, Fc = Fp – Ft

With shear force, a properly designed and tightened joint, the friction between the bolted
materials absorbs the stress and the bolt itself feels little to no load.

There are other factors that need to be considered as well. Fastener material has a large
effect on torque versus preload force. Lubricants can also significantly change the effects of
torque versus preload force. Anti–seize compounds can reduce the needed torque up to
20%.

In short, torque measurement is an economical method of achieving a properly tensioned


joint. Other methods are available, but training needs and tool expense increase.

CT Engineering has taken into account the variability of using torque wrenches. The
design standard applied is a safety factor of 8 on all fasteners, after the "G Force"
load is calculated for each component. This is to ensure clamping force is maintained
without exceeding the strength of the fastener.

Various studies have been performed on the effectiveness of torque wrench accuracy. The
following conclusions have been made.

TABLE 4
TORQUE METHOD ACCURACY

PRELOAD MEASURING METHOD ACTUAL PRELOAD FORCE ERROR


“Feeling” > 35%
Torque Wrench +/– 25%
Angle Torquing +/– 15%
Indicating Washer +/– 10%
Fastener Elongation +/– 5%
Strain Gauge +/– 1%

As demonstrated in Table 4, not using a torque wrench is the worst case event.

The “Feeling” method also changes with the tool. A 1/4” drive “feels” different than a 1/2”
drive.
