4.1.5 System boot-up

When the UIF CR boot-up and the IPC 1000 boot-up are completed successfully, communication
between IPC 1000 and UIF CR (COM 1) gets established. Successful communication is indicated
when the UIF view switches to a color screen ==> System is ready
4.1.6 Power OFF

To start the Power off procedure press OFF Button on UIF CL or CR.
Following procedure is running now :
IPC RTS-signal (CTS-signal on B380) of COM-1 is high. B380 is sending via COM1 to IPC the
sequence for shut down. IPC starts now to shut down the Linux system. Communication on COM1
is now over. B380 is switching User Interface to white screen and shows message “Shutdown”. At
this time two timer starts: Shutdown-timer and Turn-off timer. The shutdown counter is displayed
on this screen, too.
While timeout is running, B380 is checking CTS signal.
CTS signal:
High: IPC1000 is not active
Low: IPC1000 is active
Case 1: CTS-signal is low while Shutdown-timer > 0:

this is the normal case. When B380 is detecting a low signal on CTS the B380 switch off the
system immediately. In EEPROM is stored that shutdown was successful.
Case 2: Shutdown-timer=0 and CTS is still high:

this is the error case. Following warning message is displayed on User Interface :”System
reorganization is running (ca. 3 minutes). Please don’t turn off system” (in 8 languages).
Case 2.1: Turn-off Timer >0 and CTS is low:

after case 2 the IPC shutdown was successful. System is switched of by B380. In EEPROM is stored,
that shutdown after reorganization was successful. On next reboot in the Log file will be an entry

4.2.1.5 B379 Input current limiter + Generator power
4.2.1.5.1 Input current limiter

When power is first applied, the transformer generates a high inrush current that is limited by this
circuit to avoid damage. A resistor (10 Ohm for 240VAC, 5Ohm for 120VAC) in series to the
transformer limits the inrush current. A R/C timing circuit (R3 and C1) causes a delayed switch of
relay K1 to bypass the current limiter for regular application. K1 and R4 cause a discharge of C1
when the system is turned off.
4.2.1.5.2 Generator Power Supply

On X3-1 and X3-2 is the DC voltage (GL1) connected that loads the external capacitor C1 (X3-5
and X3-6) through inductor L1 and diode D10. C13 is charged through the resistors R10 and R11
until U1 reaches its trigger point and starts. Q1 charges the inductor L1 and the load discharged
through D10 to capacitor C1. The auxiliary winding on L1 takes over the supply of U1. The output
voltage is regulated through the divider R19, R18 and R21. The mirrored input voltage is supplied
to the multiplier in U1 through the resistors R16 and R17 to generate a sinusoidal current. When
the system is turned off capacitor C1 is discharged through R2 and K2B. The thermo switch S1
protects the resistor R2 from over current in case of failure.

4.3 Image System
__________________________________________________________________________
4.3 Image System
4.3.1 Circuit/Mechanical Description

4.3.1.1 Overview
The CCD Camera Video XR OEC is used to reproduce the image of an image intensifier on a CCD
sensor. With the CCD Camera, the partial components of optics, mechanics and electronics are
combined to form an optimized unit for X-ray diagnostics. The system has a modular design in all
three partial areas so that it is always possible to update the system to the "state of the art" later.
To keep the adjustment work on the image intensifier as low as possible when the CCD Camera is
mounted, the individual components are already set in the factory. The lens has been optimized
for different reproduction scales, i.e. the CCD Camera can be used on a number of image
intensifier tubes without replacement of the lens. The image quality remains almost constant in
this process. The mechanics otter a series of options such as motor-driven iris and image rotation
specially designed for the demands of X-ray diagnostics. The standard of mechanical stability
over the service life of the camera meets the high expectations in a medical engineering product.
The camera electronics is based on the use of the most sophisticated CCD technology. A 112"CCD
is used as image detector. The electronics is highly integrated to allow the possibility of integrating
a number of image processing hardware features in the camera head.
The Video XR OEC CCD-camera can be controlled by external hardware control signals and by its
RS-232 interface.
The external hardware control signals are used for easy interfacing the camera to radiological
unit.
The RS-232 interface provides additional control capability.
Any function of the camera is controlled either by an external hardware control signal or by the
RS-232 Interface.
The control of all application related functions are driven by the camera control software AFS.EXE.
This software is running under WINDOWS 2000 and WINDOWS XP and allows the user an easy in-
the-field set-up of the camera and maintenance.
The AFS covers functions that are necessary to set-up the camera in a radiological unit.
A function may have a Set-part and / or a Get-part and one or more parameters.
A Set-part writes a parameter into the camera while a Get-part delivers the actual value of a
parameter from the camera.
4.3.1.2 Charge Coupled Device (CCD)

The incoming light reaches the surface of the CCD (Charge Coupled Device) image sensor. The
CCD image sensor produces an output signal whose level corresponds to the incoming light
intensity (Pre-Video).
The output signal is buffered and sent to the Analog Front End (AFE).
The CCD is operated in frame integration mode to achieve maximum spatial resolution.
Due to this, the integration phases of the odd and even field pixel are overlapping by 50%.
4.3.1.3 Analog Front End (AFE)

The Analog Front End performs following functions:
Sample / Hold of the Pre-Video-Signal to generate a continuous video signal
__________________________________________________________________________
48 of 229
4.3 Image System
__________________________________________________________________________
Digital Adjustable Amplification (DAA)
The DAA performs variable amplification of the video signal before analog to digital conversion. It
is apart of the Manual or Automatic Gain Control circuitry of the camera.
Dark Signal Stabilization (DSS)
The DDS is related to the so-called dark reference pixel on the CCD. Its stabilizes the digital value
of the mentioned pixel at predefined positive value and compensates changes due to
temperature, gain, etc. Therefore, the video signal meets the input range of the ADC. DSS is not
related to the minimum video signal (see also DRE-Function.)
Analog to Digital Conversion (ADC)
The amplified video signal is transmitted to an analog to digital converter. The digitization is
straightforward binary, 12 Bit; higher values belong to higher light levels. The digital video signal is
than transmitted to the Digital Timing and Process Unit.
4.3.1.4 Digital Timing and Process Unit (DTPU)

The DTPU generates all timing signals necessary to operate the camera. This includes clocks for
driving the CCD, the AFE, the micro controller, the power supply, digital-analog re-conversion,
different I/O-signals and internal clocks to control the signal processing.
The digital signal processing incorporates following functions:
Generation of Measurement Window MW

The MW is apart of the whole image. Pixels inside the MW are used to control several functions of
the camera (AGC, etc). The Measurement Window has a circular shape with adjustable diameter
(25% to 100% of image height). The center position of the Circular Blanking and Measurement
Window are identical.
Measurement Engine ME
The Measurement Engine calculates several parameters from the pixel inside the MW. This is done
for every field. The parameters are fed to the micro controller. These parameters are the sum, the
number of pixels, number of pixel above and below a gray level threshold.
Correction of Pixel Faults
Pixel Faults (Hot Spots) will be replaced by its nearest neighbor.
Offset Correction
Subtraction and Multiplication is applied on the video signal to achieve optimum contrast in the
image.
Highlight Measuring Window
To adjust the diameter, the MW can be highlighted.
Shading Correction
To compensate the image shading due to lens and image intensifier a Shading Correction
Function is implemented. Horizontal and Vertical Shading Correction curves, both tilt and dome
can be applied.
Gamma
Gamma can be selected to linearize the brightness transfer function including CRT-Monitor.
Digital Sync Mix
A digital Composite Signal is formed.
Digital to Analog Converter (DAC)
A 10 Bit Digital to Analog Converter Generates a Composite Video Signal. The Video Signal is
output tat CN2.
4.3.1.5 Micro controller

After power up, the micro controller initializes all components. To do this, the micro controller
reads all parameters from a memory and sends it to the components. During operation, it handles
the RS-232 communication, controls several automatic functions and performs supervising and
self-test function.
__________________________________________________________________________
49 of 229
4.3 Image System
__________________________________________________________________________
A micro controller with on-board flash-memory is used, so it is possible to flash new software into
the camera. This needs special equipment.
All camera parameters are stored in an EEPROM. Via RS-232 interface, parameters can be sent to
components (volatile) or to the EEPROM (nonvolatile).
4.3.1.6 Automatic Balance Control

The following digital signals are generated to control the X-Ray Source:
XR high
X-ray dose is too high to get a good image
XR low
X-ray dose is too low to get a good image
Additional, two analogue signals are generated:
XR Control and XR Linear
Description of the signal XR linear
This signal provides information about the actual average saturation of the CCD inside the
Measuring Window. It can be configured by the manufacturer as a voltage source (0V... -10V) or as
a current source (0uA - 10uA).
The standard setting for XR linear is: voltage source

0V 0 saturation of the CCD (dark Image)
-10V 100%saturation of the CCD
Description of the signal XR control
This signal provides information about the difference between actual average saturation of the
CCD inside the Measuring Window and a predefined value (Set Point).
In case that these values are equal, the output voltage of XR Control is 6V.
The total output range of XR controls are from 0V to 12V.
4.3.1.7 Power Supply

A switched mode power supply generates all voltages used inside the camera. The input range is
18V to 32V.

The System uses a Tri-mode Image Intensifier tube capable of producing 9-inch, 6-inch or 4.5-inch
images. The I.I. power supply allows for the Tri-mode operation.
4.3.4 Tri-Mode Power Supply (B335)

The Tri-Mode Power Supply (B335) used on the System has unique camera connectors to prevent
its use on any other system. The single power supply PCB provides all voltages and signals for the
Image Intensifier tube and CCD Camera.
4.4 Collimator
4.4.1 Circuit/Mechanical Descriptions

4.4.1.1 Beam Limiting Device DAC-8
DAC-8 is designed to control the geometry of the X ray beam (digitally controlled, asymmetric
collimator with 8 leaves) DAC-8 consists of an iris collimator and a slot collimator. The control unit
B356 limits the angle of the X Ray beam automatically to the field size of the image intensifier,
depending on the selected operating mode of the X Ray system. The opening size of the iris
collimator can also be adjusted manually as required. The slot collimator consists out of two
parallel-assembled blades. The blades can be manually opened, closed and moved
asymmetrically in parallel. The slot collimator can be turned at maximum of 180°. The X Ray beam
angle is limited by a fixed lead ring to the size of the image intensifier and the SID of the X Ray
system to protect from outshining
4.4.1.2 B356 Interface for Generator/DAC-Controller

P/n: 00-451132-xx
This PCB controls the entire generator including collimator. The B356 is controlled through a CAN-
Bus. The functions are separated into three areas:
- Collimator Control
- Temperature/Voltage control with safety circuit
- Generator control

4.4 Collimator
__________________________________________________________________________
4.4.1.3 Collimator Control
4.4.1.3.1 Functionality
4.4.1.3.1.1 Slot collimator „Open/Close“

Activation of the slot collimator open/close key on the touch screen causes a data string to be
sent via CAN-Bus to the CAN input module (X1/11A, 11B), which hands the command to a SW
task. SW then releases data to the data latch IC3. The data combination (1) together with
PWM1/PWM2 (2) (output on X2/19A, 19B) goes to the TTL inputs on IC1/1,2,7,9,10,15. The outputs
IC1/3,6,11,14 drive the motors M1/M2 through St4/4,5,9,10 to open or close the slot collimator.
The actual slot position is determined by potentiometers P1/P2 through ST4/2,7 that provide the
position to a SW task via an analog input module (X2/2A, 2B). The actual position is constantly
being compared to the calibrated min/max limits that are stored in the EEPROM and disables
M1/M2 when the limits are reached.
(1) Data combination controls direction and start/stop of the motors M1/M2.
(2) PWM1/PWM2 controls the motor speed of M1/M2.
4.4.1.3.1.2 Slot collimator „Rotation“

Activation of the slot collimator rotation keys on the touch screen causes a data string to be sent
via CAN-Bus to the CAN input module (X1/11A, 11B), which hands the command to a SW task. SW
then releases data to the data latch IC3. The data combination (3) together with PWM3 (4) (output on
X2/18B) goes to the TTL inputs on IC2/1,2,7. The outputs IC2/3,6 drive the motor M3 through
ST4/14, 15 to rotate the slot collimator.
The actual slot position is determined by potentiometer P3 through ST4/12 that provides
the position to a SW task via an analog input module (X2/3A). The actual position is
constantly being compared to the calibrated min/max limits that are stored in the EEPROM
and disables M3 when the limits are reached.
(3) Data combination controls direction and start/stop of the motor M3.
(4) PWM3 controls the motor speed of M3.
4.4.1.3.1.3 Iris collimator „Open/Close“

Activation of the iris collimator open/close key on the touch screen causes a data string to be sent
via CAN-Bus to the CAN input module (X1/11A, 11B), which hands the command to a SW task. SW
then releases data to the data latch IC3. The data combination (5) together with PWM4 (6) (output on
X2/18A) goes to the TTL inputs on IC2/9,10,15. The outputs IC2/11,14 drive the motor M4 through
ST3/4,5 to open or close the collimator iris.
The actual iris position is determined by potentiometers P4 through ST3/2 that provides the
position to a SW task via an analog input module (X2/3B). The actual position is constantly being
compared to the calibrated min/max limits that are stored in the EEPROM and disables M4 when
the limits are reached.
(5) Data combination controls direction and start/stop of the motors M4.

4.4 Collimator
__________________________________________________________________________
Activation of the zoom key on the touch screen causes a data string to be sent via CAN-Bus to the
CAN input module (X1/11A, 11B), which provides the actual iris position to SW. SW then releases
data to the data latch IC3. The data combination (5) together with PWM4 (6) (output on X2/18A) goes
to the TTL inputs on IC2/9,10,15. The outputs IC2/11,14 drive the motor M4 through ST3/4,5 to
open or close the collimator iris.
The actual iris position is determined by potentiometers P4 through ST3/2 that provides
the position to a SW task via an analog input module (X2/3B). SW compares the actual
value to the desired value and then drives the iris collimator until the actual value =
desired value.
4.4.1.3.2.2 Hand mode „On“

Activation of the hand mode key on the touch screen causes a data string to be sent via CAN-Bus
to the CAN input module (X1/11A, 11B), which provides the actual iris position to SW. SW then
releases data to the data latch IC3. The data combination (5) together with PWM4 (6) (output on
position to a SW task via an analog input module (X2/3B). SW compares the actual value to the
desired value and then drives the iris collimator until the actual value = desired value.
4.4.1.3.2.3 Film mode „On“

Activation of the film mode key on the touch screen causes a data string to be sent via CAN-Bus
to the CAN input module (X1/11A, 11B), which provides the actual iris position to SW. SW then
desired value and then drives the iris collimator until the actual value = desired value.
4.4.1.3.2.4 Fluoro „On“

Activation of the 3mA one shot key on the touch screen causes a data string to be sent via CAN-
Bus to the CAN input module (X1/11A, 11B), which provides the actual iris position to SW. SW then
desired value and then drives the iris collimator until the actual value = desired value. During each
boot-up, the iris is opened in Fluoro mode by auto-relay (B101).

4.5 Communication
__________________________________________________________________________
4.4.2 Fault Isolation
4.4.2.1 Symptom with HW-failure
In the event that the actual collimator position is not reported to the controller due to a defective
pot or cable, the corresponding part will drive to its mechanical limit. Since all motors are current
regulated, there will be no damage to the motors or mechanics.
4.4.2.2 Symptom with SW-failure

A possible SW failure could be that SW does not read the actual collimator position and min/max
limits, causing the collimator to drive to the mechanical limits.
In case of a SW crash the watch-dog-timer activates the safety circuit and turns off all collimator
motors, keeping it in its current position. The trigger pulses on the controller output (X2/22A) cause
the input to the watch-dog-timer to go low. The outputs of the data latch (IC3/12-19) are switch to
high impedance through signal OE (Output Enable) causing all inputs on IC1 and IC2 to go high.
The output of the analog switch interrupts all PWM lines, disabling the drives to motors M1 – M4.
4.5 Communication

4.5.1.1 CAN-Bus
The CAN-Bus provides communication for the generator control between B356 on the generator
and the B380 central control unit. Its functionality controls and monitors kV, mA, filament,
collimator (iris, slot), and x-ray. The B355 makes the 5kV Isolation between B356 and B380.
4.5.1.2 COM 1
COM 1 is the serial communication between the B380 central control unit and the IPC1000. It
controls the user interface menus and touch screen overlay.
4.5.1.3 COM 2
COM 2 is the serial communication between the B380 central control unit and the IPC 1000. It
controls x-ray and dose.

4.6.1.2 B350, HV Power Supply

P/n (00-451118-xx)
The B350 supplies the HV transformer. The power amplifier consists of five transistors. The
transistors T2 – T5 form the output stage. They generate the AC for the HV transformer. The
transformers TR1 and TR2 drive the transistors with the signals PUSH and PULL. Transistor T1
switches power to the output stage and is driven by the signal BUCK. Transformer TR3 is the
current sensor of the output stage. Its signal is evaluated on B352 for current balancing and
output limiting.
4.6.1.3 B351, Generator Supply

P/n (00-451119-xx)
The B351 provides the Generator auxiliary supply and the filament output.
4.6.1.4 Auxiliary power supply for Maxiplus

The power supply is a half bridge - blocking oscillator type converter. The power amplifier T1, T2,
D4, and D5 is supplied through fuses Si1 and Si1, rectifier GR1, and the capacitors C1, C2. The
capacitor C33 on module B359 is charged through R1 – R3 until the switching power supply IC,
IC1, starts and switching pulses to the power amplifier through TR2 sends. At this point the
transformer TR1 of the power amplifier takes over the supply of C33 through D13. The power
amplifier allows a maximum current of 0.5A with its actual value. The voltage P+ 16V is the
variable for the output voltage. This voltage is supplied to the regulator IC3 through the
connections B10, B11 and switched to the switching power supply IC through optocoupler IC2.
The output voltage P+ 16V can be adjusted with R35.
4.6.1.5 Filament regulator and amplifier

The signal AUFN/DURCHL switches the output with a relay between the radiographic and Fluoro
filament. The radiographic filament is activated by a H-signal. The signal HZG_EIN activates the
filament regulation with a H-signal. The SOLL signal has two functions, desired filament value for
the filament regulation in controlled state and desired mA value for anode regulation. The signal
ERA is the actual value dependent on the selected mode if filament or anode regulation.

kV – Control
The voltage dividers R47, R48 and R46, R49 provide the measured kV value to the amplifier IC11.
IC12 translates the measured value for test purposes to 1V/10kV. This signal can be measured at
TP3.
The desired value, measured on TP4, is supplied together with the measured kV value to the
regulator IC13 for comparison. The maximum output power can be adjusted with R80. The output
signal of the regulator is provided as a regulation value to the PWR IC17. The power amplifiers
IC14, IC15, and IC16 drive the transistors of the B350 output stage.
kV – Monitor
IC19-A and IC19-B separately monitors the anode and cathode voltages and distributed as an
accumulated error to the monitor logic. The error signal is temporarily stored for processing in the
uP and reset with STM.
mA – Regulation and Filament Regulation

IC22-B is the input differential amplifier for the desire filament value or the desire anode current
value. IC23-A is the first filament amplifier for the filament regulation. IC21-B amplifies the
measure filament value to a signal that can be processed by the uP. The filament regulation itself
is performed on B351. Rel2 switches the measure values from regulation and control. The
negative anode current can be measured on TP6 (1mA=0.5V). IC22-D delivers the measure mA
value for the mA regulation.
mA – Monitor
IC22-A is adjusted to a trip point of 6.6mA. When this trip point is exceeded, the timer IC2 starts.
After 5.6 sec the timer delivers an error signal and turns off the generator. IC23-B has a trip point
of 30mA. If this value is exceeded, the generator immediately turns off immediately. The error
signal is temporarily stored for processing in the uP and reset with STM.
Dip Switches S600

These switches are only necessary for test equipment in the production. For using in Fluorostar all
switches must be set to "ON" position.

4.6.1.7 B355 Signal distribution and 5KV-Isolation
P/n (00-451123-xx)
The B355 provides the galvanic isolation of the following interfaces / signals:
• CAN-Bus (RX_CAN, TX_CAN)
• X-Ray On
• Laser activation (Laser_ON)
The galvanic separation provides a 5KV-isolation of the signals to the generator. In addition, the
B355 distributes power to the generator.
X-Ray ON:
The B355 distributes the X-Ray On command to the B356. The galvanic isolation is realized
through optical isolator (IC4/3 – 6). The following transistors (T1/T2) provide additional switching
security. If one transistor fails, the second transistor can control the x-ray on command
independently.
The signal runs from ST11/5, 6 through the isolator and transistors to ST10/3,4.
CAN-Bus:
The CAN-Bus is also isolated on the B355 and then routed to the B356. The optical isolators IC2,
IC3 realize the isolation. The CAN-Rx signal is sent through IC2/3 >6 to ST10/7,8 and the CAN-TX
signal is received through IC3/3 >6 from ST10/5,6.
The signal runs from ST9/2,3 to the CAN controller (IC1), through the isolators (IC2, IC3), to
ST10/5,6,7,8.
Laser ON:
The laser on signal is isolated by IC5. The signal enters at ST11/4, runs through IC5/2 >5 and via T3
to ST12/2.

4.8.1.1 Lift Operation
C-Arm Lift Up:
When you press the up-switch, you generate signal LMOTUP. This signal travels to PCB B380
through U901 and exits through X105/5,6 to PCB B105. The signal passes through the upper limit
switch to the normally closed contacts of relay K5 pin 3 on PCB B105. The signal energizes the
current control relay K1, direction control up relay K2 and current enable up relay K4. These three
relay’s, along with the normally closed contacts of the direction control down relay K3, provide a
path for the +24VDC out of BR1, located in the power plate assembly, to activate the motor.
C-Arm Lift Down:
When you press the down-switch, you generate signal LMODWN. This signal travels to PCB B380
through U901 and exits through X105/7,8 to PCB B105. The signal passes through the lower limit
switch to the normally closed contacts of relay K4 pin 3 on PCB B105. The signal energizes the
current control relay K1, direction control up relay K3 and current enable up relay K5. These three
relay’s, along with the normally closed contacts of the direction control down relay K2, provide a
path for the +24VDC out of BR1, located in the power plate assembly, to activate the motor
C-Arm Lift No Movement:
The normally closed contacts of the direction control down relay K3 and the normally closed
contacts of the direction control up relay K2 place a ground potential on both sides of the lift
motor.
Attention: If Fuse F4 in the mains power supply is blown due to a defective limit switch and
running the C-Arm into the upper or lower mechanical limitation, the lift spindle and mechanical
limitation must be checked for damage.
4.8.1.2 Motorized C Rotation (optional):
B124 (Motor controller for c-rotation)

P/n: 00-451129-xx
The B124 drives and controls the c-rotation motor. The actual motor current is provided to the
controller in form of a sense voltage to protect the motor from defect from current increase due
to collision. Relays Rel 1 and Rel 2 open by collision to interrupt the current flow. This is only active
on system with anti collision control. On systems without anti collision control Rel 1 and Rel 2 are
always active and have no function.

The signal BRAKE stops the motor through the SW controller. The signal enters on ST2/5 and goes
to IC1/4.
The signal DIRECTION controls the motor direction. This signal comes from ST2/4 and goes
toIC1/3.
__________________________________________________________________________
71 of 229
__________________________________________________________________________
The signal PWM controls the motor speed through pulse width modulation. The signal runs from
ST2/3 to IC1/5.
TTL control outputs on IC1:

The signal THERMAL_FLAG indicates an over temperature fault to the controller. The signal exits
from IC1/9 through ST2/1.
Analog outputs on IC1:

The CURRENT_SENSE signal provides feedback about the current in form of a voltage level to the
controller. 1V equals a current of 1A. The signal runs from IC1/8 to ST2/2.
The signals OUTPUT1 and OUTPUT2 drive the motor. The drive signals exit IC2/2,7 and go through
ST1/1,2.
Power supply for IC1:

IC2 ensures that IC1 is supplied with a constant 24V. The fuse SI1 (2A) limits the current to 2A.
Error indication (external LED):

The signal MERR1 indicates that the controller has turned off the motor. This could be caused by
an over temperature or over current condition. A restart of the motors is only possible when over
temperature or over current parameter is reset.
The signal runs from ST2/8 through resistor R1 to ST3/4. The LED is located inside the housing of
the rotation motor.

The both II-Laser only needs +5V supply. This supply is switched on/off by B380. This switched
current leaves B380 on X335/3 pin 16, enters B335 on X3 pin 16 and leaves it directly on X6 pin 2
to B336 ST1 pin 2. On B336 the signal is divided for both lasers and leaves on ST2 pin1 for Laser 1
and ST3 pin1 for Laser 2.
To use the II laser, it must be enabled in the software. (Setup / Service Menu / FS Setup Page /

An existing machine can also be upgraded to DAP. Please use here the Update packets (see spare
part list).
The DAP unit is connected via a 4-wire connection to the B356 board. Pin 1 is ground and pin 2 is
+15V for the power supply. Pin 3 and 4 is the RS422 interface. This will transfer the measurement
value to the microprocessor on the B356 board.

Caution: this adjustment must be done very carefully, because this has the most influence on the
exactness of the Laser cross in every height.
Fix laser with the outer and the inner screw (not strong)
Now lay the coin in the middle of the X-ray beam. Height should be as near as possible on
generator side (when in hospital use patient table)
Make X-ray and position the machine so, that the coin is exactly in the cross hair on monitor A
Adjust now the cross of the lasers so, that are matching on the coin. Use for this adjustment the
left and right screws. If necessary open one screw and fix the other one as long as you can match
the target
Figure 229
Now change the height so, that the coin is in the middle between generator and II.
Make X-ray and position the machine so, that the coin is exactly in the cross hair on monitor A
Check if the laser cross is still on the coin. If not the angle adjustment is not exactly enough. So go
back to angle adjustment
Reassemble new II save-cover (with two windows for Laser). Assemble it so, that the windows are
exactly over the two lasers.

Remarks:
Because of different monitor manufactures the monitor have different input connectors : VGA
standard (15 pin) or DVI (analog used only). You can use both monitor types, but may be you need
a VGA/DVI adapter
For easy fault searching you can change “VGA in A” with “VGA in B” on B392 or “VGA OUT A” with
“VGA OUT B” or also RJ45 Output/Input on B392/B391.
You can also use a standard VGA cable to connect one monitor direct to the IPC VGA outputs
(example in red).To check C-arm cabling you can use also a standard RJ45 cable (not crossed) to
interconnect B392 with B391 (example in red).
