5.3.1.4 B379 Input current limiter + Generator power
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.

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 gets
discharged through R2 and K2B. The thermo switch S1 protects the resistor R2 from over current in case
of failure.

5.4 Image System

5.4.1 Circuit/Mechanical Description

5.4.1.1 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" at a later date.
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 came ra 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.

5.4.1.2 Charge Coupled Device

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%.

23 von 23 01.02.05 Servicemanual_Fluorostar_050201.doc

5.4.1.3 Analog Front End
The Analog Front End performs following functions:

Sample / Hold of the Pre-Video-Signal to generate a continuous video signal

Digital Ajustable 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. So
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 fed 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 fed to the
Digital Timing and Process Unit.

5.4.1.4 Digital Timing and Process Unit

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. Pixel 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 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.

24 von 24 01.02.05 Servicemanual_Fluorostar_050201.doc

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.

5.4.1.5 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.
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 a EEPROM. Via RS-232 interface, parameters can be sent to
components (volatile) or to the EEPROM (nonvolatile).

5.4.1.6 Automatic Balance Control

The following dig ital signals are generated to control the X-Ray Source:

XR high
X-ray dose is to high to get a good image

XR low
X-ray dose is to 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

25 von 25 01.02.05 Servicemanual_Fluorostar_050201.doc

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 control is from 0V to 12V.

5.4.1.7 Power Supply

5.5 Collimator

5.5.1 Circuit/Mechanical Descriptions

5.5.1.1 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

5.5.1.2 B356 Interface for Generator/DAC -Controller

Part #: 00-451132-01

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

1. Collimator Control

1.1 Functionality:
1.1.1 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.

28 von 28 01.02.05 Servicemanual_Fluorostar_050201.doc

1.1.2 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.

(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)

(6)
PWM4 controls the motor speed of M4.

1.2. Collimator iris control through mode selection

1.2.1 Zoom „On“
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 de termined 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.
(5)
Data combination controls direction and start/stop of the motors M4.
(6)
PWM4 controls the motor speed of M4.

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

desired value and then drives the iris collimator until the actual value = desired value.
(5)
Data combination controls direction and start/stop of the motors M4.
(6)
PWM4 controls the motor speed of M4.

1.2.4 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 releases data to the data latch IC3. The data combination (5) together with PWM4 (6) (output on

boot-up the iris is opened in Fluoro mode by auto-relay (B101).
(5)
Data combination controls direction and start/stop of the motors M4.
(6)
PWM4 controls the motor speed of M4.

5.5.2 Fault Isolation

1 Symptoms with HW-failure/SW-failure
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.

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.

Monoblock Maxiplus 3000

Maxiplus 3000 is a X Ray source in Monoblock design.
Equipped with a two focus fixed anode X Ray tube for Fluoroscopy and Radiography
As X Ray source for use in mobile X Ray systems for Fluoroscopy and Radiography
Version-1 with controlled via a parallel interface
Version-2 with serial interface is under development.

B350, HV Power Supply (00 -451118-01)

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.

B351, Generator Supply (00-451119-01)

The B351 provides the Generator auxiliary supply and the filament output.

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.

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.

ST4 supplies the necessary voltages to the board. These voltages are stabilized with the voltage regulators
IC7 (+15 V), IC 8 (-15 V), IC 9 (+5,3 V) and IC 18 (+12 V). IC 10 generates a +6V reference voltage out
of +12V. ST1 is the input for all control signals and desired analog values and the output for the actual
values and error signals.

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 without delay. The error signal is temporarily
stored for processing in the uP and reset with STM.

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.

37 von 37 01.02.05 Servicemanual_Fluorostar_050201.doc

Hazardous Temperature

- In continued operation the housing of the Maxiplus 3000 heats up.

- A plastic cap and a skin spacer atop of the housing protects from direct contact of the patient
with the housing.
- A maximum temperature of 50°C / 122°F may occur.
- Please take care, that the patient and personnel have no direct contact to the housing.
- At 45°C / 113°F at the skin spacer, a safety circuit limits the anode current to 0,5mA.
- At 50°C / 122°F at the skin spacer, a safety circuit disables radiation
- If the temperature control circuitry fails, a bi-metal temperature sensor switch terminated
radiation at 80°C / 176°F to protect the equipment from damage. The bi-metal switch can only be
reset manually by service personnel.

Source-to-skin distance

The distance to the X-Ray beam outlet should be kept as fare as possible.
A skin spacer tube atop of the housing assures a minimum distance of 30cm to the focal spot. By
removing the skin spacer tube the minimum source to skin distance will be decreased from 30cm
to 20cm. Removal of the skin spacer tube should be done only on the instruction of a physician
for special procedure. It must be reassembled immediately following the special procedure.

5.8 Motorized Motions

5.8.1 Circuit/Mechanical Descriptions

5.8.1.1 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 directio n 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 .

58 von 58 01.02.05 Servicemanual_Fluorostar_050201.doc

5.8.1.2 Motorized C Rotation (optional):

B124 (Motor controller for c-rotation)

Part #: 00-451129-01
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.

TTL control inputs to IC1:

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.
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.

5.15 Software

During every boot-up the version control module checks the SW revisions for each module.
If a module has a wrong SW REV a warning message will be displayed and a SW update should be
performed.

SW update:
The first step is to select update media, USB, CD ROM, or Network (not installed).
From the selected media the system searches for updates in folder “janusupdate” and copies data
to IPC1000.
The correct SW Version can be selected from the following screen:

After selection press OK and confirm update.

The system will start an automatic update for the entire system:
Compare existing SW to requested SW
Start Update
Compare SW Image and update if necessary (than start Update (2 - 10 min)
Compare SW B356 and update if necessary (than start Update (2 - 10 min)
Compare SW B380 and update if necessary (than start Update (2 -10 min)
If the update runs error free then update for IPC 1000 starts (ca. 10 sec)
When update is completed the system automatically reboots all components.

NOTE: There will be no warning messages when the system was successfully updated.
