Note:

Note:

Network Remote Hosts are not updated in the /etc/inet/hosts file, but can be found in the file /export/home/sdc/Prefs/SdCRHosts. For this reason, it is not possible to use ping, telnet, spray and similar commands using the hostname. The internet address must be used instead. For example, to ping the MR operators console from the A.W. workstation, do not use /usr/sbin/ping MR01_OC0. Instead, use its internet address: e.g : /usr/sbin/ping 192.9.200.1 . Therefor, though it is only mandatory to declare hosts in the /etc/hosts file , when using the SdC NET protocol, we recommend you to do it in any case. Declaring a Dicom IC (independent console) A new protocol has been implemented in order to solve some problems with the IC current software Release 5.5 (echo, delay, repetition and inversion times display beeing multiplied by 1000). Declare the host as any other Dicom3 host, but select the IC Dicom3.0 protocol.

WARNING

THE FILMING DASM INTERFACE (DASM/LCAM) BOX DOES NOT HAVE A TARGET SWITCH ACCESSIBLE FROM OUTSIDE. IT IS FACTORY CONFIGURED AT THE SCSI ID = 0 ADDRESS WHICH WAS SUITABLE FOR PRIOR ADVANTAGE WINDOWS PRODUCTS. TO MOVE IT TO THE REQUIRED ADDRESS SCSI ID = 5, REFER TO CHAPTER 8 OR TO THE VENDORS MANUAL DELIVERED WITH THE PRODUCT.

WARNING

THE SPARCSTORAGE MULTIPACK HARD DISK DRIVES SCSI ADDRESSES ARE FIXED AND DETERMINED BY THE INTERNAL DISKS LOCATION IN THE PACK.

5.1 Note:

Availble configurations Refer to Chapter 8 for information on the external SCSI device you want to connect. Also see part numbers of various SCSI cables page 146 and Chapter 6 for FRU list. Due to the limitation (0 to 6) of available SCSI addresses for the standard SCSI devices, it has been necessary to limit the number of devices to be connected to the AW workstation. Note that the Sparcstorage Multipack can use the wide SCSI addresses (10 to 15). The first 3 examples show simple configurations. The last 3 examples show the maximum number of devices that can possibly be daisychained, and the SCSI address they must be set to.

HARDWARE OPTIONS INSTALLATION:


SECTION 1 PREREQUISITE Advantage Workstation 3.1 is configured (Job Card IST 001/002). External SCSI options are connected and powered on (Job Card IST 003). A Configuration Floppy disk, specific to the Site , is available when installing the options. If this diskette is not available ,or is corrupted, you may install your options one by one, using the appropriate install.xxx script. (see below) SECTION 2 FOREWORD Some AW3.1 options are protected by a software key. This software key is linked to the workstations Hostid number of the Site which has purchased the option. Note: External storage pack option, Genesis MOD (AW1.2 / 2.0) option and DASM filming interface option do not require a protection key. This key is delivered under 2 forms : A Configuration floppy containing a special number matching the Hostid of the workstaion and a sheet of paper on which this number is written. If several options are purchased for the Site at the time of first installation, only one Configuration floppy containing the corresponding keys will be delivered . On the joined sheet of paper, these keys will also be clearly written. If this diskette is not available ,or is corrupted, you may install your options one by one, using the appropriate install.xxx script and entering the key at the keyboard. (see below) There are two different ways to install new hardware options: D By the command install.hardware script ,with the configuration floppy (shipped with the product). In this case you could install all options at one time , (see section 5) This automatic installation procedure, has been designed to simplify Options installation. You can use it to either load one or several options at the time of first installation, or to reinstall all the options after a disk crash or a complete software load. D By the specific command for each options install.xxx where xxx is linked with option name In this case , you will install options one by one ,(see section 6 and Chapter 8 for more information)

When all your options are installed, you can save all the software keys at once, on one blank diskette which will become the brand new Site Configuration diskette. This will be done by IST009 Job Card.

CAUTION

It is not possible to degrade the external storage disks pack, for example from 12Gb to 8Gb, WITHOUT running uninstall.storage (see Chapter 8). This script will remove ALL IMAGES on the AW3.1 station in order to preserve the database integrity, for safety reasons.

Note:

Upgrading your system from 4Gb to 8GB or 12 GB does not need to rease images already contained on the existing disks. For each upgrade, you have to run either the install.storage script or the install.hardware script.

SECTION 6 MANUAL PROCEDURE Use the manual procedure if you want to add one option at a time to an existing configuration. You can as well use the automatic procedure and answer NO to the installation of the other options. After installing any hardware option manually, in order to make sure that the device is properly declared, it is safe to shutdown the workstation and reboot it, using the boot r command.

CAUTION

SOFTWARE OPTIONS INSTALLATION :


SECTION 1 PREREQUISITE Advantage Workstation 3.1 is configured (Job Card IST 001/002). External SCSI options are connected and powered on (Job Card IST 003). External SCSI options are installed (Job Card IST 004). A Configuration Floppy disk, specific to the Site , is available when installing the options. If this diskette is not available ,or is corrupted, you may install your options one by one, using the appropriate install.xxx script. (see below) SECTION 2 FOREWORD AW3.1 options are protected by a software key. This software key is linked to the workstations Hostid number of the Site which has purchased the option. This key is delivered under 2 forms : A Configuration floppy containing a special number matching the Hostid of the workstaion and a sheet of paper on which this number is written. If several options are purchased for the Site at the time of first installation, only one Configuration floppy containing the corresponding keys will be delivered . On the joined sheet of paper, these keys will also be clearly written. If this diskette is not available ,or is corrupted, you may install your options one by one, using the appropriate install.xxx script and entering the key at the keyboard. (see below) There are two different ways to install new software options: D By the command install.software script ,with the configuration floppy (shipped with the product). In this case you could install all options at one time , (see section 5) This automatic installation procedure, has been designed to simplify Options installation. You can use it to either load one or several options at the time of first installation, or to reinstall all the options after a disk crash or a complete software load. D By the specific command for each options install.xxx where xxx is linked with option name In this case , you will install options one by one ,(see section 6 and Chapter 8 for more information)

When all your options are installed, you can save all the software keys at once, on one blank diskette which will become the brand new Site Configuration diskette. This will be done by IST009 Job Card.

Go to the Advantage workstation and login as root : console login: root [Return] Password: operator [Return] (factory loaded default root password) Yype in the following command: /usr/sbin/ping <IP_address_of_network_printer> [Return] e.g : /usr/sbin/ping 192.100.9.5 [Return] <IP address of Network printer> is alive

Note:

Do not enter leading zeros in any of the four numeric fields separated by dots of the IP address. e.g : do not type in 192.100.009.005, but type 192.100.9.5 instead. This alive answer from the system means that the Network printer can be reached from the Advantage Workstation system through the network. If the system displays unknown host, your color printer may not be correctly declared on the network. Do the steps described in Chapter 8 again. If the system displays Network unreachable, you probably have given the printer an IP address incompatible with your Advantage workstations IP address. Check that they belong to the same network, 192.100.9.X, for example. D Logout

SECTION 4 PREREQUISITES Advantage Workstation 3.1 is installed and configured (IST 001 / 002 ). SECTION 5 PROCEDURE To summarize : Use the DICOM protocol when declaring a GE Dicom XRay, CT or MR scanning system. If Query / Retrieve function is requested by the customer ,and not available in DICOM, preferably use SdCNet or AdvantageNet protocols. Use the DICOM protocol to declare a connection to a foreign DICOM system. The DICOM A.E.T (Application Entity Title) of an AW3.1 is its hostname. Advantage Workstation 3.1 is DICOM Storage Class User and Storage Class Provider which means that it can push and receive DICOM images. It is also a DICOM Query/retreive User but it is not a DICOM Query/Retrieve Provider. You must use the SdCNet protocol to declare another AW3.1 to your Advantage Workstation, in order to allow Query / Retrieve function. Note: Note: It is no longer necessary to enter YMS in the Comments field , when declaring a GEYMS system to your Advantage Workstation. Refer to IST002, Section 4.3 Declare Hosts on the Network under Site configuration, for Network Setup of Image Sources on AW.

AW3.1 is connected through Internet protocol (IP) which runs over a lower software layer called Point to Point Protocol (PPP). PPP emulates an IP connection with a phone line. D Security

The access is controlled by an encrypted password system called CHAP ,part of the PPP protocol. CHAP is setup at the first InSite connection , just after installation. D Installation

The InSite software is included in appllication software. To enable it, the FE must run install.insite script. At the time of system install, a UNIQUE IP address has to be allocated to the system. This address will be declared in the Support Center data bases. To allocate this address .... 2CASES: 1) The network administrator of your site gave you a registered IP address to setup your AW3.1 This address will be used to connect to the system through InSite. 2) The site has NO internet network. In this case , the support center will allocate a predefined address class A ( 10.3.xxx.yyy). Contact your support center to get those address, as well as other parameters like netmasks .

Personnel:

Before you start, you must determine if the customer requests that you reinstall the existing images, present on both internal disks and Multipack storage disks (if available). If it is the case, be prepared for long reinstallation time . e.g : it takes about 4:30 hours to reinstall a mix of 100 000 CT and MR images. SECTION 1 SUPPLIES D D ADVANTAGE WORKSTATION 3.1 application software CDROM Configuration diskette

SECTION 2 TOOLS REQUIRED None. SECTION 3 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING

Before you start, make sure you will be able to reinstall any nonresident softwares and data such as Advantage SIM, so check that you have saved all the necessary data by the appropriate means.

This procedure should only be used to reload AW3.1 application software. It can only succeed if the O.S is fully operational and if Frame Buffers drivers and Disk Striping software are still running properly. In this case, images can be preserved. Preferably use IST011 to reload both O.S and application software. In this case make sure Customer did not load personal files on disk that he should save before. All images will also be lost. Whenever possible : save system configuration on floppy before: Refer to IST 009 Section 53.

272 Console Monitor Adjustment Procedure The console monitor must be properly adjusted for the filmed image to accurately represent the console monitor displayed image. The following procedure is the recommended setup of the Console Monitors to achieve a filmed image which accurately represents the monitor displayed images. The SMPTE (Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers) test pattern is used to provide a standard image. There are factors pertaining to console monitor adjustments which will affect the ability of the film to accurately represent the console monitor displayed images. These factors, the console monitor contrast and brightness, are adjusted so all the shades of grey are discernible without excessive brightness under normal viewing ambient lighting. The SMPTE test pattern also enables an easy check of focus and linearity / geometry of the display. The final result should make the film image and the console monitor displayed image similar in appearance. The console monitor window and level may be adjusted for viewing preference, however the console monitor brightness and contrast should not be changed since the display is optimized for the video signal input. D D D Note: D D D D Display SMPTE test pattern on monitor. See illustration 31 for sample test pattern. Set window control value to 100. Set level control value to 1024. To achieve the best results, it is important that this setup procedure be done under the normal ambient lighting conditions for the console area. Locate the contrast and brightness control knobs on the bottom front of the monitor (or remote control for 20 inch monitor). Adjust contrast control of display monitor to extreme minimum contrast (furthermost counter clockwise position on). No contrast results in a flat density image. Adjust brightness control until scanning raster is just perceptible. Adjust contrast control such that the brightest part of the image is at a comfortable viewing level. All shades or grey should be discernible. The two additional areas of the grey scale, which contain subpatches with 5% density differences, should also be visible. See illustration 32, circled number 6. (i.e. Adjust until viewing of brightest area is comfortable, then adjust to ensure all shades of grey can be seen). For MEGASCAN screen , you need to complete the procedure by using the one described in job card IST 009 section 55.

ILLUSTRATION 32 SCHEMATIC DRAWING OF SMPTE TEST PATTERN

COMMON PROCEDURES

Other aspects of display to check (See circled numbers in image on illustration 32): High and low contrast resolution patterns, in both horizontal and vertical directions, must be discernible. (Numbers 3 and 4). In the regions of white and black windows, there should be no smearing or streaking of the interior rectangle into the surrounding, contrasting region. Windows must appear sharply defined. (Numbers 1, 2, 58) Focus may be checked by observing the characters embedded in the image and readjusted if necessary using the control knob (19 monitor) or remote control (20 monitor). The size of the 512 pixels square image on the display should measure 7.25 x 7.25 (18.45 cm x 18.45 cm). The entire display image, including grey scale and patient data, should be centered in the window frame. (Number 9).

A large percentage of dropped packages is not significant of network problems. It can be due to a heavy activity of the network or the workstation that you spray. Hosts are not updated in the /etc/inet/hosts file but can be found in the /export/home/sdc/Prefs/SdCRHosts file. For this reason, it is not possible to use ping, telnet, spray and similar commands using the hostname. The internet address must be used instead. For example, to ping the MR operators console from the Advantage workstation, do not use ping MR01_OC0. Instead, use: /usr/sbin/ping 192.9.200.1 [Return].

SECTION 1 FOREWORD It may happen, when attempting to do a Load From Cold (O.S + Application SW load), to find out that the Jumpstart diskette has been lost or corrupted. If you are close to another site with a similar equipment, you can make a Jumpstart floppy from the workstation over there, by simply login as root and running the ./prepare.jumpstart utility under /export/home directory. If you do not easily have access to another workstation, follow the procedure below in order to build one from a blank floppy. Note: Jumpstart floppy diskettes are not compatible from one system to another. This means that if you can use a Jumpstart diskette made at another workstation, you cannot use one made from a different system. e.g : Do not use an AW3.0 Jumpstart with an AW3.1 system, etc ...

Note: D D

Make sure the software release is the same as the one needed to reload your workstation.

Note:

SECTION 4 PREPARE JUMPSTART FROM A DOWN AW3.1 WORKSTATION In order to build a Jumpstart diskette from a down system (for example if the System disk has been replaced or reformatted), you have to start the Load From Cold procedure as usual, and as instructed by Chapter 1, IST011 Job Card, give some of the missing information usually extracted from the Jumpstart diskette, and load from the Solaris Cdrom, the basic UNIX needed to be able to mount the AW application Cdrom, which contains the prepare.jumpstart script. Then with your new Jumpstart diskette ready, you will have to resart a complete Load From Cold sequence.

SECTION 3 INITIALIZATION DASM filming interface is usually factoryconfigured as SCSI ID 0. This must be changed to SCSI ID 5 for Advantage Workstation. Also check that the mains voltage selection is appropriate to your location and the presence of the SCSI terminator before turning on the power. If SCSI address or mains voltage selection needs to be changed, refer to DASM users manual delivered with your machine. See Chapter 8 Section 5 for more details in order to change the SCSI ID to 5. To properly initialize the system, it is important to turn on the devices in the following order. 1. LASER CAMERA plus MMU (if any). 2. FILMING INTERFACE power LED turns ON then auto tests sequence starts. 3. WORKSTATION boot sequence starts. Note: Note: Use the boot r command to declare DASM to the system at the time of installation. (see chapter 1, Job Card IST 003 and IST004, Section 4) If you cycle power to the laser camera or MMU, you must also turn off power to the DASM filming interface, then turn on power to the filming interface after the laser camera or MMU has completed its initialization. During auto tests and initialization of the interface box, the various LEDs of the front panel (except power on LED) will turn ON and OFF in a well determined sequence until the CPU LED blinks regularly meaning the interface box is ready to receive/transmit. If not, in order to know the meaning of the code expressed by the different LEDs, consult. for Video type : DASMVDB : Users manual P/N : 36004412 for Digital type : DASMLCAM : Users manual P/N : 36004413 SECTION 4 FILMING From the browser, call the SMPTE pattern and print it in 1x1 format to check image quality. During filming, the data flow transfer can be observed on the DASM interface box LEDs. This lets us assume that both SCSI device address, SCSI cable and SCSI port are correct.

Note:

For 3M 952, after a film jam, (error code 22 or 23), power off / on the Laser Camera, MMU and DASM because the error is not always cleared by the Reset button on the front panel of the camera. For 3M 952 associated with Film Processor XP 515 , there is a recommended software change to avoid Laser Imager code error 17. The EPROM is labelled IC 12/C and the processor speed at point 05 is 2.34.

Note:

SECTION 6 CHECKS AND UTILITIES 61 Connection Checks Communication from the Advantage Workstation to the filming interface can be checked by opening a Unix command window. Two different kinds of checks can be done. D D D Communication between AW and DASM via SCSI bus. Communication between DASM and laser camera via RS232 or RS422 serial lines.

A directory /export/home/sdc/bin contains the following executables: Showdasm: a program which gives several parameters of the DASM. (SCSI ID, memory size, serial line baud rate EPROM check sum etc.) This command may take about 30 seconds to complete. Open a Command Window and type : su root [Return] enter password : operator [Return] cd /export/home/sdc/bin [Return] ./showdasm [Return]

Accessing and using the log file Filming with a DASM Filming Interface uses 4 different logfiles : filmlog : Traces of the Film Composer booklog : Traces of the Film Composer for ScrapBook prslog : Traces of the print server (prserver) These first 3 logfiles are automatically active. dasmlog : Traces of the DASM filming interface. This last logfile has been intentionnally inactivated, because very verbose. If you have troubles with Filming, you may activate it in order to obtain some usefull data to analyze. To activate it, change to the scripts directory : cd /export/home/sdc/scripts [Return] Run the start_filming scripts start_filming v [Return] MESSAGE from prserver 2413>> Mon Sep 22 17:08:20 1997 [Server]> initialization in progress for port PRSserver MESSAGE from prserver 2413>> Mon Sep 22 17:08:20 1997 [Server]> ...initialization completed for port PRSserver Note: start_filming is to be used with a v to set the dasmlog file in the active mode. It is also usefull to restart the print server. In order to set the dasmlog to the inactive mode, run the start_filming script without the v option. The Logfiles are periodically and automatically cleaned up by the system cron to prevent them from growing up, consuming disk space. Change to the logfiles directory cd /export/home/sdc/logfiles [Return] Read the contents of the prslog, filmlog, booklog and/or dasmlog files e.g : more prslog [Return] Note: You can as well use the command display_logfile f <logfile_name> which also takes in account and packages for easier readind the older compressed logfiles (e.g : browserlog.WedSep1715:15:04.Z ) The following is an example of prslog logfile.

Note:

Do not use any other location as it could give address conflicts with the other SCSI devices. Two types of Storage Multipack towers can be found: Older type : 12slot tower with fixed SCSI addresses from 10 to 15. This type is obsolete and is no longer supplied. Newer type : 6slot tower with fixed SCSI addresses from 9 to 14. Three types of hard disks can be found and/or installed into the towers: Older type : 2.1GB disk. This type is obsolete and will never be supplied in new towers nor in new disks increments. Current type (obsolescence starting mid 1999) : 4.2Gb disk. This type which is currently found in the new tower, is compatible with the old ones, as long as you use the floppy diskette delivered within the package (for AW3.1_06 only. Do not use the diskette for AW3.1_07 or up).

A Floppy diskette is currently delivered with each new tower or each new disk(s) increment. Its purpose is to update the install.storage script, so to deal with any change in the hardware, such as 12slot to 6slot tower (SCSI from 1015 to 914), hard disks from 2.1GB to 4.2GB. Do not use it for AW3.1_07 or up. New type : 9.1GB disk 10000 rpm. This type is now replacing the 4.2GB disk, but the AW database can only support 2 x 9.1GB . Do not attempt to install 4 or 6 x 9.1GB disks, because this may crash your Database. 9.1GB disks can only be installed with AW3.1_07 or up. Do not use the diskette with 9.1GB disks.

Troubleshooting Procedures on the SCSI Bus If Advantage Workstation fails to boot because SCSI transport errors, the site is probably not using the approved SCSI cables (2110495 or 2110496) provided by GEMS. Advantage Workstation can also fail to boot because of DASM conflicting address with one of the internal 2.1GB hard disk drives, if DASM SCSI address has been left set to 0 instead of setting it to 5. If DASM is not responding to user commands and SCSI errors appear in the console window, possible causes are: D Camera exception conditions (ie. magazine door is left open, no film in magazine draw,...) will hang the SCSI bus and consequently the external hard disk will not respond to user commands. Clear the camera exception condition and reset the DASM, camera and MMU (only present on 3M 952 camera). Site is not using the active terminator (46269601p5) and may be using a passive terminator.

SUBNETWORKS Allows a single network address to span several physical networks. Some of the bits in the host portion of an IP address are used to specify the subnet number on the network backbone, and the remaining are used to specify the host number within the subnet. How these bits are divided between subnet and host depends on the type of netmask used.

NETWORKING

D D D

The 0bit netmask (255.255.255.0) is the default netmask for Class C networks, since it has no effect on the IP address. The 7bit and 8bit netmasks are useless because they dont contain any useable host addresses. Of the remaining netmasks types, the 3bit, 4bit, and 5bit types are the most practical to use because they offer realistic subnet/host combinations.

Possible Netmasks for Class C Network NETMASK Type 0bit 1bit 2bit 3bit 4bit 5bit 6bit 7bit 8bit Number 255.255.255.0 255.255.255.128 255.255.255.192 255.255.255.224 255.255.255.240 255.255.255.248 255.255.255.252 255.255.255.254 255.255.255.255 1 11 111 1111 11111 111111 1111111 11111111 HOST PORTION OF NETMASK (BINARY) Subnet Bits Host Bits 00000000 0000000 000000 00000 0000 000 00 0 0 NUMBER OF SUBNETS 1 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 256 NUMBER OF USEABLE HOST ADDRESSES Per Subnet 254 126 62 30 14 6 2 0 0 Total 254 252 248 240 224 192 128 0 0

To determine which netmask type to use, you must first know which subnet/host combination is needed for the network. When looking at the table, you can notice that the number of useable host addresses is always equal to the number of host addresses minus 2. e.g.: 8 >>6 useable ; 16 >>14 useable ; 64 >>62 useable host addresses.

If, for instance, we consider a 255.255.255.192 netmask, we can see that we are able to split the network into 4 subnetworks. See following illustration Each subnet will have 62 possible addresses. subnet 1 : from 1 to 62 subnet 2 : from 65 to 126 subnet 3 : from 129 to 190 subnet 4 : from 193 to 254 The missing addresses are reserved for SRINIC administration and subnet broadcasting.

SECTION 3 TO BE DONE EVERY 4 TO 5 YEARS : NVRAM CHIP REPLACEMENT The NVRAM integrated battery has a limited life of about 4 to 5 years. When the battery fails, the NVRAM chip looses all its settings. Older Advantage Windows using UltraSparc1 workstation will be the first to be concerned by this issue. Replacing the TOD/NVRAM chip in your workstation means that the HOSTID will change. Therefore you will have to install new software protection keys for the purchased options of the Site, which match the new HOSTID.

Procedure
NVRAM should be preferably replaced during a preventive maintenance, according to the age of your workstation. Order the right type for exchange, and make sure you REPLACE IT DURING WORKING HOURS, so you can get assitance from OnLine Center, which will compute the new software protection keys, matching the new Hostid. NVRAM chips NVRAM for Ultra1 (Sun P/N : 5251430) NVRAM for Ultra2 (Sun P/N : 5251417) : 2157131 : 2210214

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

The TOD/ NVRAM chip is located on the Sytem board (Mother board). For more information, refer to your Workstation Service disassembly/reassembly procedures. See Chapter 5 of this manual. Shutdown workstation and replace the NVRAM chip. Reboot workstation and start SDC (initialization of SDC will fail as the new software protection key is not installed yet. Install the new software protection key cd /export/home/sdc/install [Return] ./install.key XXXXXXX [Return] where XXXXXX is the new software protection key for SDC.

ALIAS An alias is a userspecified abbreviation, or alternate string, for a standard command string.

APPEND Attach to the end.

APPEND OUTPUT Attach redirected output to the end of a file.

ARGUMENT Any word (string of characters separated by spaces or tabs) occurring after the command in a command line.

COLON MODE In vi, the mode where files are written or quit the program. Type : when in command mode to access colon mode. Besides command mode and colon mode, vi has insert mode.

COMMAND A string of characters typed to the system, expecting it to respond by performing a certain function unique to that command line. The command is sometimes called the verb of the command line sentence.

COMMAND EDITING Modifying a previous command line for reuse as a new command.

COMMAND LINE A string of characters beginning with a command followed by arguments, which arent necessarily required, including options, filenames, and other expressions.

COMMAND MODE In vi, the mode where moving and deleting commands are typed, as well as changing text commands that access insert mode. vi starts out in command mode; the other modes are insert mode and colon mode.

APPENDIX A

COMMAND PROMPT The string of characters that the system types indicating it is ready to accept and interpret the next command line. Often, the command prompt includes the name of the system.

COMMAND REPETITION Repeating a previous command line, or portion of one, for reuse as a new command line.
