SAFETY
SAFETY
Ionizing Radiation Exposure: When power is applied, this equipment may generate ionizing radiation.
Take precautions that no part of the body passes through the x-ray beam when the equipment is
energized. Avoid scatter radiation during warm-up and testing by maintaining a safe distance from
the x-ray beam. See Appendix A – Specification in the User manual for equipment appropriate
distance and other precautions regarding ionizing radiation. All operators must be properly trained
regarding ionizing radiation and take adequate steps to protect against injury.
Electric Shock: This equipment contains high voltages. When the tabletop/panels/ shrouds are
removed, visually confirm that power cord is unplugged and remains unplugged until power is
required to complete the procedure. When servicing while energized, take precautions to prevent
electric shock.
Moving Parts and Pinch Points: Avoid moving parts and pinch points (e.g. belt/pulley, arm/back rail,
green wheels/rail).
Sharp Edges: Take precautions to prevent injury from contact with component edges (e.g. OMI/OMD
wheel, arm slot cover).
Hot Surfaces: Keep hands clear or allow components to cool before servicing. (e.g. stepper motors,
hard drives, power supplies and microprocessors).
Heavy Lifting: Assess the lift first. Obtain help lifting or moving any object weighing over EHS limits.
Undertake any heavy lift tasks with a minimum of 2 persons. Ask for assistance when maneuvering
awkward objects (e.g. tabletop). Use mechanical assistance where practical. Flex knees to maintain a
straight back. Avoid abrupt, sudden movements or pulls. Wear safety shoes and safety gloves.
Laser Radiation: Do not stare into the laser beam at any time. The reflection from the tabletop or
shutter/collimator assembly is sufficient to determine if the laser is on.
Follow appropriate Lockout/Tagout procedures as described in MyLearning training course GEMS-EHS-

LOTOAth.
Wear appropriate PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) while servicing the equipment, e.g. eye
protection and steel-toe/composite-toe shoes.
FRAGILE PART PRECAUTIONS

Brittle Components: Some parts can be irreparably damaged by sudden impact such as being dropped
even short distances. For example, parts containing glass or crystal should be handled with care.
Electronic Components: Circuit boards are sensitive to electrostatic discharge and are brittle.

COMBINED SINGLE BOARD CONTROLLER CSBC

CSBC FUNCTIONS
The cSBC printed wiring board (PWB) is an eight layer rectangular board measuring 7.400" x 8.100".
The PWB is mounted in the via four mounting holes located 1/4" from each corner and 2 additional
interior mounting holes. The components are primarily surface mount, with board connectors, headers
and a few single-style ICs being the only exceptions. Four layers were dedicated for routing layers.
Sensitive signals were noted and routed manually and isolated from more powerful signals to reduce
signal interference and crosstalk on the same routing layer. The main power and ground planes were
stacked adjacently on the central inner layers to increase inter-planar capacitance thus reducing
ground bounce and power supply noise. Traces on the top and bottom layers were kept as short as
reasonably possible and tapped down to an internal trace layer through vias.
Component placement is arranged to separate analog from digital circuitry. Further isolation was
achieved by segmenting the power and ground planes into analog and digital sections and denying
analog/digital plane overlap, thus preventing digital noise from coupling into the analog section. All
scanner control I/O is run via connectors located on the +24V plane section. The +24V plane is fully
optically isolated from both the analog and digital plane areas to prevent motor noise from coupling
into the analog section, to prevent DC switching noise from radiating on scanner cables, and to
prevent ESD presented at cable inputs from reaching the digital IC's.
The Altera FPGA based cSBC provides overall operation and control of the scan table. The cSBC
employs an Intel 80C251 micro-controller as its processor. This processor provides 1K of on-board
RAM and no on-board ROM. The controller is clocked at 16 MHz using a crystal.

CONTROL FUNCTIONS
Prodigy Only:
The cSBC performs the following functions in the Prodigy:
 Controls X-ray source including HVPS enable, kV programming, mA programming, and shutter
solenoid.
 Controls two external stepper motor drives to provide two axis of motion for rectilinear
scanning.
 Provides data acquisition functionality based on input from the Detector Interface Board.
 Communicates to PC host via an optically isolated RS-422 interface.

 Responds to external patient locator (joystick) inputs.

The cSBC performs the following functions in the DPX Bravo and DPX Duo:
 Controls X-ray source including HVPS enable, kV programming, mA programming, and shutter
solenoid.
 Controls two external stepper motor drives to provide two axis of motion for rectilinear
scanning.
 Provides data acquisition functionality based on analog input from PMT via PIB CCA
preamplifier.
 Communicates to PC host via an optically isolated RS-232 interface.
 Responds to external scanner failure signals.
 Responds to external patient locator (joystick) inputs.
COMMUNICATION
 Communicates with PC host via an optically isolated RS-422 interface in Prodigy and RS-232
interface in DPX Bravo/ DPX Duo.
 Collects data from the Detector Interface Board incase of Prodigy, PMT Interface Board incase
of a DPX Bravo and DPX Duo.
CSBC RESET
All SBC circuitry resets when the microprocessor resets. This is done during power up, and can also be
done over the communication port (via the host), through connections to other circuit boards
(especially the Detector Interface Board, as a fail-safe shutdown), by pressing the reset button on the
cSBC, by pressing the Emergency Stop Button on the arm, or when a fault is detected by the cSBC.
Prodigy Only:
The following Error Conditions Sensed by the cSBC in the Prodigy:
 Loss of Communications with the Detector Interface Board (DIB).
 Loss of Communications with the Host PC.
 Limit Switch tripped when shutter is open.
 Failure in x-ray source kV programming
The DIB will reset the cSBC if it detects an error. Error Conditions of the DIB sensed by the cSBC:
 PLD programming failure
 Loss of +5 or +12 VDC
 Loss of Communications with cSBC
 Corrupt FIRMWARE

DPX Bravo DPX Duo Only:

The following Error Conditions Sensed by the cSBC in the DPX Bravo/ DPX Duo:
 Loss of Communications with the Host PC.
 Limit Switch tripped when shutter is open.
 Limit Switch depressed when commands are being sent.
 Failure in x-ray source kV programming
CSBC / HOST PC INTERFACE

Prodigy Only:
For Prodigy 5-7, the cSBC communicates with the Host PC via an RS-422 interface. This is a serial
connection capable of transmitting more data than a standard RS-232 port. As it is not a standard
serial port a RS-485/422 card must be installed into one of the Host PCs expansion slots and the port
must be configured correctly for the PRODIGY to operate correctly.
For Prodigy 8 and above the CSBC communicates with the Host PC via an RS-232 interface. The RS-
232 cable is NOT backward compatible with Prodigy 5-7. The RS-232 cable requires a ferrite to be
compliant. The RS-422 cable does not contain a ferrite.

The CSBC communicates with the Host PC via an RS-232 interface.

CSBC POWER DISTRIBUTION

Prodigy Only:
The PRODIGY system uses a single switching DC power supply which provides +5,+/-12, and +24VDC.
The supply is connected directly to the cSBC via J14. J13 is provided as a power out connector to run
power to the DIB. The PWB is divided into 4 ground plane regions - DGND for +5V digital returns, AGND
for +/-12V analog returns, SCNGND for +24V returns, and ISO_GND for the host I/O island. Large zeners
and rectifiers are provided for over-voltage and reverse-voltage protection. Standard capacitor filter
banks are provided. For EMC all cable exits other than host and DMB I/O are located over the 24V
planes. The 24V plane is separated from the 5V plane via optical isolation to prevent 5V noise from
reaching cables (radiated EMC) and to prevent motor noise and ESD pulses from reaching the digital
and analog IC's. The 24V plane contains primarily power FET switches and power resistors used to
control scanner motors, X-ray source, LED, etc. The +/-12V planes contain analog electronics used for
detector and HVPS control. 4 opto channels are used to sense the presence of the 4 DC input voltages.
The opto outputs are used to drive 4 indicator LED's and to allow the CPU to detect power outs.
The DPX Bravo Duo system uses a single switching DC power supply which provides +5,+/-12, and
+24VDC. The supply is connected directly to the cSBC via J14. J4 is provided as a power out connector
to run power to the PMT Interface board. The PWB is divided into 4 ground plane regions - DGND for
+5V digital returns, AGND for +/-12V analog returns, SCNGND for +24V returns, and ISO_GND for the
host I/O island. Large zeners and rectifiers are provided for over-voltage and reverse-voltage
protection. Standard capacitor filter banks are provided. The 24V plane is separated from the 5V plane

LED's and to allow the CPU to detect power outs.
X-RAY SOURCE
The Tube Head consists of an oil-filled metal housing which contains a fixed anode X-ray Insert
(essentially a vacuum tube housing assembly diode), lead type shielding, collimating devices, electrical
connectors, and a Cerium (K-edge) filter.
The X-ray tube housing assembly gets its input from the high voltage power supply that provide a
constant potential of 76kV and operate at a high frequency of 50 kHz. This produces a stream of
electrons in the cathode and accelerates them towards the anode thus producing X-rays as well as
heat.
X-RAY GENERATION AND SPECTRUM
 The X-ray Insert converts current into x-rays by accelerating the electrons across a large
potential from the cathode into a tungsten target on the anode.
 The x-rays produced by the x-ray insert are filtered by the cerium filter to produce a dual
energy spectrum. The x-ray spectrum has peaks at 70 and 38 keV
 Insert potential is provided by the High Voltage Power Supply
44 of 110

System Overview
 The tube housing assembly current is set by the cSBC 0.05mA to 1.5ma for DPX Bravo/ DPX
Duo and .15mA to 3mA for Prodigy depending on the acquisition type.
 Tube Current is set and regulated by the cSBC and the Power Supply.
HIGH VOLTAGE POWER SUPPLIES

Both Prodigy and DPX Bravo/ DPX Duo X-ray production system consist of a constant potential
generator (one high voltage power supply) and an X-ray tube housing assembly. The high voltage
power supply (HVPS), operating at a high frequency of 50 kHz, provides a continuous output of up to 80
kV each and up to 3 mA to the X-ray tube housing assembly. The anode target is composed of a
tungsten alloy. The specifications of the X-ray generation subsystems are outlined in Appendix A –
Specifications, in the enCORE User Manual.
 Both Prodigy and DPX Bravo/ DPX Duo scanners use a single high-voltage power supply
(80kVDC) During normal operation, 76kVp is applied to (+38kV at the anode and -38kV at the
cathode)
 The High Voltage Power Supply is controlled by the cSBC
 The AC line voltage powers the power supply and have their own built in fusing.
 The AC power is routed a mechanical relay, which is mounted on the electronics pan and
controlled by the cSBC.
X-RAY COLLIMATOR SUBSYSTEM

Both Prodigy and DPX Bravo/ DPX Duo:

 The Shutter is actuated by a solenoid using +24 VDC, the voltage is reduced to a holding
voltage of 12VDC after the shutter is opened.
 This solenoid is controlled by signals generated on the cSBC.
 A OMI board determines the shutter position and reports it to the cSBC.
 This assembly is located on top of the X-ray Tube Head.

System Overview
 The detector bias is controlled by the cSBC, it is adjusted in the peak setting test during the
daily QA.
DETECTOR OPERATION
Prodigy Only:
The CZT Detector is held at 450 VDC bias and the CdTe Detector is held at 600 VDC. When an X-ray
strikes the detector an electron/ hole pair is created (small black arrows in the block diagram shown
below). This charge pair induces a small amount of current in the crystal.
A charge sensitive pre-amp then converts the current to voltage and passes the signal along to the
Detector Interface Board for processing and analysis. The signal out of the pre-amp is a +5 to +10
millivolt DC signal; each event on each channel creates a small “blip”.
Figure 1. Detector Block Diagram
DETECTOR INTERFACE BOARD OVERVIEW FOR PRODIGY ONLY

The DIB printed wiring board (PWB) is an eight layer rectangular board measuring 6.325” x 4.200”. The
board thickness is specified as 0.062 inch. The card is mounted in the Prodigy detector housing unit by
four mounting holes located 0.25” from each corner. The components are primarily surface mount.
Through-hole connectors were used for better stability and ruggedness for secure cable and board
connections. Due to the density of the board, resistors and standard 0603 style capacitors were placed
on the back side of the board for convenience, better routing and better IC protection. All other
components, including capacitors, were placed the top side of the board.
Three layers were dedicated for routing. Sensitive signals (detector inputs) were noted and routed
manually and isolated from more powerful signals to reduce signal interference and cross-talk on the
same routing layer. The signals were placed in stripline by using power, ground and shielding planes
and intermeshing them with the signal layers, thus preventing any vertical coupling. The main power
and ground planes were also stacked adjacently to increase inter-planar capacitance thus reducing
ground bounce and power supply noise. Traces on the top and bottom layers were kept as short as

Rev. 3 Nov 2011
reasonably possible and tapped down to an internal trace layer through vias. The top and bottom
were then flooded with a copper pour and tied to ground, in effect creating a Faraday cage to help
reduce EMI emissions and susceptibility. Component placement is arranged to separate analog from
digital circuitry. Further isolation was achieved by segmenting the power and ground planes into
analog and digital sections and denying analog/digital plane overlap, thus preventing digital noise
from coupling into the analog section.
The DIB board performs the following functions:

 Control all detector-related functionality, CPU acts as slave to either host PC or cSBC enforcing
various operation via a firmware based command set.
 Prodigy 5-7: Communicate with Prodigy cSBC CCA 7635 and a host PC via a single DB-9/RS-
422 link.
 Prodigy 8 and above: Communicate with Prodigy cSBC CCA 41170 and a host PC via a single
DB-9/RS-232 link.
 Control the patient positioning laser
At power up the firmware programs the on board PLD, comparator windows DAC’s, ASIC dead time
control register, and channel ‘peak’ gains, with default values stored in non-volatile memory. The
processor then enters a message/idle loop, awaiting instructions from the cSBC. At scan time the cSBC
will issue and ‘arm for sweep’ command, passing the desired sample interval and number of sample
points in the sweep. The cSBC would then issue an ‘acquire sweep’ command. In response to this
command the processor will synchronously latch and clear all data counters and release the sample
timer. In response to subsequent sample timer interrupts all ASIC counter data will be synchronously
latched via a single global signal. The processor shall then respond to the sample interrupt by reading,
packaging, and transmitting the latched sample data from the ASIC to the cSBC. The cSBC will then
relay the sample packet to the host PC. This process will continue until the requested number of
samples have been collected and transmitted, at which time the processor shall return to stand-by
mode.
The DIB provides the cSBC, and hence the host, access to all analog voltage settings including
comparator reference levels, detector bias, and channel gain settings. The bias and reference levels
change only with major revision software release. Channel gain control is used by the firmware to
implement a ‘peaking’ algorithm which is used as part of diagnostics and daily QA.

+24VDC power supply comes on.
o Power on LED is lit whenever scan table power is on.
o The Amber LED indicates if the laser is on
o An yellow X-ray On LED indicates that x-rays are being produced (current is flowing
through the X-ray Insert), though exposure is not necessarily taking place.
The X-ray on LED is lit when current is flowing through the X-ray insert.
o The yellow Shutter Open LED comes on is the Shutter open and exposure possible.
The Shutter open LED is controlled by the cSBC, the cSBC will allow the shutter to open
even if the lamp is not lit (shutter open indicator is also on the PC controller screen).
Note: It is not recommended that scanner operation be continued if these LED's signal are not
working and must be replaced as soon as possible.
 Emergency stop button (red), is to be used only in emergency situations; it resets the cSBC and
halts x-ray production.

 Latch Handle: Pull the latch handle to swing the scan arm. The scan arm comes to a lock
position again when the arm is parallel to the back of scanner (90 degree position). Pull the
latch handle again to get it back to original position. The X-ray source will not turn on when
the arm is in unlocked position. The X-Rays will also not turn on when the arm is locked in the
90-degree position.

SECONDARY CALIBRATION / DAILY QA

SECONDARY CALIBRATION OVERVIEW
 Daily QA (Quality Assurance) tests the integrity of the scanner so operator knows it is
operating within specifications.
 Daily QA (Secondary Calibration) adjusts the calibration of the scanner to offset any changes
due to the tube housing assembly aging, temperature varying, or when certain components
are changed.
 A third type of function, QC Phantom, is another method for testing system performance. A QC
phantom is scanned using standard software and results are stored (aluminum spine in
water).
Daily QA ensures the system is operating properly by running 3 types of tests:

 A peak test to adjust photon-counting electronics.
 A functional test that checks the indicator lights, motion system, shutter, tube housing
assembly output, and detector performance.
 A test that measures a secondary calibration object with different bone chambers and tissue
plugs which correct for system aging and prevents long-term drifts.
STARTING THE DAILY QA (SECONDARY CALIBRATION)

1. Operator presses [F5] to start [Daily QA], which presents a plot of the last used parameter
from the last Daily QA run. (Default display is the medium bone chamber.) At this point
operator can interactively manipulate the data in QA database to create tables and graphs
that can be printed.
2. Tech presses [Start] to start running Daily QA tests.
3. Software displays instructions to position calibration block on the table. Tech places block on
tabletop with label up - aligned with laser then click [OK] to start.
4. The UI locks out all other operations except Abort button.
5. Scan arm moves to the "Home" position. In this case, Home is always at head of scanner for
QA independent of user setting for Home.
6. The scanner performs a scout scan to find the block. If block is not properly positioned, the
scanner will prompt the user to Reposition standard more accurately.
7. The software automatically finds landmarks within the secondary phantom. This reduces the
need for exact positioning on the table top.
8. All tests are run all of the time. The tests are executed and test results reported as each test
completes. Test results include pass/fail and any quantitative information when appropriate.
PEAK TEST
This test adjusts the sensitivity of the photon counting electronics. The test determines the optimal
voltage setting for the detector amplifier so the maximum number of photons are detected. During this
test, the shutter opens with the x-rays on.
The detector peak test then determines the optimal voltage setting for the detector amplifier based on
these curves. The actual peak setting is taken from the high-energy count rates, the low energy
channel is essentially blocked by the brass spillover piece in the QA standard.

System Overview
FUNCTIONAL TESTS
The next set of functional tests consist of a shutter test and motion tests for transverse and
longitudinal directions.
Beam Stop test - This test checks the shutter OMI to ensure that the shutter is closed.
Motor motion and limit switches - Each motor (transverse, longitudinal) will be run between limit switch
and back to home position. If the limit switch do not engage, this is a failure. Also compare steps
against predetermined scan window size. If a failure occurs the number of steps taken, the expected
value and the direction the arm was traveling is noted in the error log.
Spillover test - Measures the effect of high energy photons registering as low energy photons in the
detector system. The beam passes through a brass piece that stops all low energy photons. The
detector then measures the number of low energy photons detected as a measure of spillover.
The Spillover in:

Prodigy 5-8 should be less than 13%
Prodigy 9 and above should be less than 14%
DPX Bravo/ DPX Duo should be less than 12%
In the Prodigy only the spillover with the CZT detector will degrade about 0.2% per year.
Spillover Stability test (Prodigy Only) - As part of the secondary calibration, the change in spillover must
be calculated on a per element basis and smoothed over the last 3 passing QA's. Daily QA measures
actual spillover and stores it in QA database. As part of primary calibration, the spillover value used
during that calibration is stored. The delta spillover calculation using the spillover from primary
calibration and the running average of the last three spillover measurements. This information is in the
scan file.
REFERENCE VALUE TEST

The output of the x-ray tube housing assembly is measured as part of a Reference Value (old term was
air) measurement. This is measured at 1.5 mA in a DPX Bravo/ DPX Duo and 3mA in Prodigy.
Reference Value measurement - The HE/LE counts are measured as the number of photons counted
by detector at 1.5 ma. This value is used in all bone density calculations. It must be stored in the
systems data file.
 Reference value measurements will be performed at 150uA and 3000uA. These reference
values will need to be stored separately for all detector elements.
 Reference Value measurements for 1.5mA are actually made through lucite sections of the
secondary calibration block.
Reference value ratio test - The LE/HE ratio for each reference value is calculated for each tube
housing assembly current tested in reference value measurement.
TISSUE VALUE TEST

Tissue secondary calibration
 The system measures two tissue plugs (acrylic and acetyl).
53 of 110
Lunar.

Rev. 3 Nov 2011
 Store measured values for each chamber in QA database.

 The system determines the %fat for two different materials with different compositions.
 Three %fat values are displayed - lean, mid and fat
 These calculated %fat values are compared against expected values and checked against
limits for the mean, standard deviation.
 A slope is calculated and this adjustment is used as a secondary %fat calibration to offset
long term drifts in system performance. This adjustment is performed at the end of the %fat
calculation.
BM CHAMBER MEASUREMENTS
The system acquires point measurements on the 3 bone chambers using the highest exposure
settings.
Using simple edge detection algorithm, place 3 ROI's and calculate measurements. The system
determines the bone mineral BM and width for three chambers with different sizes and densities.
 Measured values for each chamber are stored in the QA database.
 These calculated BM values are compared against expected values and checked against
limits for the mean, standard deviation.
 A slope is calculated and this adjustment is used as a secondary BMD calibration to offset
long term drifts in system performance.
DAILY QA RESULTS
At the end of Daily QA, a report is automatically printed. The QA result can be printed to a printer, Fax
and Email. A snapshot of the QA result is shown below in Fig 1.

Rev. 3 Nov 2011
If printer is not on line or fails it will post an error to screen.
 If a QA fails the error log will contain detailed information on the failure.
Appropriate secondary calibration and Reference Value information is recalculated from QA database
using an average of 3 previous passing test results. This information is stored in each scan file. A view
with plot of medium bone chamber is generated, and user the user is allowed to manipulate data
interactively.
QA DATABASE
All QA test results are saved automatically to a database. A Historical record of system performance is
maintained by storing key QA parameters in a database.

SERVICE PROCEDURE
GENERAL SAFETY
Ionizing Radiation Exposure: When power is applied, this equipment may generate ionizing radiation. Take
precautions that no part of the body passes through the x-ray beam when the equipment is
energized. Avoid scatter radiation during warm-up and testing by maintaining a safe distance from the x-
ray beam. See Appendix A – Specifications in the enCORE User manual for equipment appropriate distance
and other precautions regarding ionizing radiation. All operators must be properly trained regarding ionizing
radiation and take adequate steps to protect against injury.
Electric Shock: This equipment contains high voltages. When the tabletop/panels/ shrouds are removed,
visually confirm that power cord is unplugged and remains unplugged until power is required to complete the
procedure. When servicing while energized, take precautions to prevent electric shock.
Moving Parts and Pinch Points: Avoid moving parts and pinch points (e.g. belt/pulley, arm/back rail, green
wheels/rail).
Sharp Edges: Take precautions to prevent injury from contact with component edges (e.g. OMI/OMD wheel,
arm slot cover).
Hot Surfaces: Keep hands clear or allow components to cool before servicing. (e.g. stepper motors, hard
drives, power supplies and microprocessors).
Heavy Lifting: Obtain help lifting or moving any object weighing over EHS limits. Ask for assistance when
maneuvering awkward objects (e.g. tabletop).
Laser Radiation: Do not stare into the laser beam at any time. The reflection from the tabletop or
shutter/collimator assembly is sufficient to determine if the laser is on.
Follow appropriate Lockout/Tagout procedures as described in MyLearning training course GEMS-EHS-

LOTOAth.
Wear appropriate PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) while servicing the equipment, e.g. eye protection and
steel-toe/composite-toe shoes.

 1/8" and 5/32" Hex Wrench
 Small Screwdriver
 Diagonal Cutters
 3/8" Wrench
 Large and small wire ties.
PROCEDURE (BOTH PRODIGY AND DPX BRAVO/ DPX DUO)

1. Shut off the power to the scanner.
2. Take off the tabletop by removing four screws (two at each end).
3. Move the scan arm to the head end of the table.
4. Unplug the AC power to the scanner.
5. On your new lower cable bundle, use a diagonal cutters to cut the wire ties holding the cable
together.
6. Lay the new cable bundle flat out on the floor. Locate the end with the 16 and 24 pin connectors, this
is the end that connects to the bulkhead, this is the end to start the install action from.
7. Locate the bulkhead on the scanner. There are (3) wire ties that hold the cable bundle in place
between the bulkhead and the cable track. Before cutting any wire ties note the way the cable
bundle is tied down and the way the cable lays before it enters the cable track. The new cable must
be fastened in the same position and lay the same way.
8. Carefully cut the (3) wire ties between the bulkhead and the cable track with your diagonal cutters.
9. For Prodigy only disconnect the large RS422 connector (Detector Signal Cable) by unscrewing the
two screws on the connector. For DPX Bravo/ DPX Duo only disconnect the lemo connector.
10. Next disconnect the 16 and 24 pin molex connectors. These connectors have a catch lock located in
the center of the housing which must be depressed to disconnect them from the bulkhead.
11. Next take your large screw driver and pry open all of the cable track plastic retaining clips that hold
the cables into the track. These clips pivot at the back of the cable track and can either be removed
or left in the open position so the cables can be removed.
12. Pull the old cable bundle out of the cable track towards the foot end of the table.
13. Slide the connector back into the bulkhead bracket the way it came out and fasten the upper cable
bundle with a large wire tie the way it was before the original wire tie was cut.
14. Take the new cable bundle and connect it to the bulkhead by routing the cable bundle the same way
as the replace cable bundle, (note the connectors are labeled bulkhead 1 and bulkhead 2) and fasten
the cable bundle down in the three spots between the cable track and the bulkhead with wire ties.
Lay the new bundle down into the cable track making sure all the cables lay parallel to each other.
Start replacing the clips to the cable track as far as you can. Continue the process: remove a few
clips, extract the old cable bundle, add in the new cable bundle, and replace the clips.
15. Locate where all the wires from the old cable bundle terminate on the electronics pan. The old cable
bundle may now be discarded.
16. Connect the wires to their proper locations for the new cable.
17. Then move the arm all the way down to the foot end of the scan table. At this time make sure that
the Lower cable bundle and the high voltage cable bundle have some slack where the cables enter
the cable track near the bulkhead area. Move the arm up and down the scan table to be sure there is
nothing wrong with the cable track motion. Leave the arm at the foot end of the table.
18. Leave a little slack in the cables from the cable track to the pan area to allow all of the cables to be
routed and wire tied exactly like the original cables.
19. Reconnect the A/C power cord, put the tabletop, pad back on the scanner.
20. Turn on the scan table, computer, monitor and printer. Perform required tests per "Test to Perform
After Service".

TUBE HEAD CABLE REPLACEMENT

PROCEDURE
1. Switch off the power to the scanner.
2. Remove the tabletop, the front panel for easy access to the tubehead.
3. Move the scan arm to the head end of the table.
4. Remove the ground connection on the tubehead.
5. Cut the wire ties holding the high voltage cable.
6. Pry open the plastic retaining clips that hold the cables into the cable track. These clips pivot at the
back of the cable track and can either be removed or left in the open position to remove the cables.
7. Note the position of all the cables in the cable track. They will need to be returned to the same
position during this procedure.
If the cables are not returned to their original positions, cable damage will result.
8. Remove the High voltage anode and cathode connections on the HVPS and the tubehead on the
other end.
9. Take the black tape off the high voltage cable bundle at each end of the sleeving (open any cable
track clips that are in the way) as well as any wire ties holding the bundle in place. Remove the tape
beneath the sleeving. Note the positions of each cable before removing the tape. The cables must be
returned to these positions.
10. Feed the new cable, through the black sleeving on the high voltage cable bundle starting near the
bulkhead.
11. Once the cable is through the sleeving, connect it to the tube head and connect the ground wire.The
collimator control cable should come out of the cable bundle between the two high voltage cables
toward the back of the scanner. Tape the cables together for several inches with three layers of
electrical tape starting as close to the bracket as possible. Continue to spiral the tape around the
cables as it was originally and finish by taping three layers for several inches near the bulkhead.
Tape the sleeving near the bulkhead as it was originally. Pull the sleeving tight along the bundle and
tape near the tube head. Wire tie the cables to the tube head high voltage cable bracket.
12. Lay the cable in the cable track in the same position as the original one. Start replacing wire ties
between the bulkhead and the tube head. Before tightening the wire ties assure that there is proper
clearance and no stress is applied at any of the connectors or wires through the entire range of
motion. Tighten the center cable ties first (two large wire ties put together and located at the center
of the high voltage cable trough). Be sure the high voltage cable bundle does not hit the front panel
when the tube head is all the way toward the front of the scanner. Make sure the high voltage cables
do not hang into the cut out space on the high voltage cable trough. Tighten the three wire ties near
the bulkhead.
13. Replace the clips to the cable track.
14. Move the arm to the foot end of the scan table. Check that the lower cable bundle and the high
voltage cable bundle have some slack where the cables enter the cable track near the bulkhead.
Check that the cable track has at least 1/8" clearance of the frame. To adjust this, slide the track in
its trough, then tighten the screw that holds the track in place. Move the arm up and down the table
to verify that the cable track moves properly.
15. Replace the table top and end panels.
16. Perform required tests as prescribed in "Tests to perform after service".

TROUBLESHOOTING
DIAGNOSTIC FAILURE MESSAGES
The following conditions halt the operations of the scanner, and generate a diagnostic failure
message, which is displayed on the monitor screen. All of these interrupts are detected by the cSBC
 Transverse Mechanics Failure
 Longitudinal Mechanics Failure
 DC power supply failure
 Emergency Stop Button activated
 X-ray source over temperature
Multiple error codes are possible. These will be displayed one after the other, but the first one displayed
is probably the problem. The Error Log will always show the failures in the correct order; the others are
generated as a result of the first failure.
Reasons For Invalid Diagnostic Failures

Arcing of the x-ray high voltage system releases a large amount of electromagnetic energy. This
energy creates noise in the electronic circuits and may cause the SBC to do unpredictable things, such
as give invalid diagnostic errors. Arcing is usually accompanied by white, blue or black lines across
patient scans.
TRANSVERSE MOTION FAILURE

MOTION DETECTION
If a problem occurs during a quality assurance, it may be high voltage arcing or a problem with the
OMI/OMD. If the cSBC / OMI/OMD fails to see transverse motion during a patient scan, an interrupt
signal is generated and the cSBC resets and closes the shutter.
OPERATOR INDUCED - SWITCH CLOSED DURING SCAN
 Cause: When scanning, a defect in the transverse mechanics or a mispositioned patient may
cause one of the transverse limit switches to close when the scanner is acquiring data.
Closure of a limit switch prevents further operation of the motor. The shutter will close, the
shutter open lamp will go out and the end of exposure alarm will sound. Seconds later the
error message will appear on the screen.
 Solution: If the patient is not centered on the table top or if the region being scanned is too
close to a limit in transverse travel, the limit switch may be close while scanning. Re position
the patient on the table, further away from the limit.
MECHANICAL FAILURES - UNUSUAL NOISE OR IRREGULAR MOTION

If the Detector / Tube Head motion is irregular, or scraping noises are heard, the Transverse Mechanics
may be binding. The daily QA Mechanics Test will typically detect this symptom as a failure.

Rev. 3 Nov 2011
 Symptom: If the Detector / Tube Head is not moving when scanning check:
o Mechanics are free to move
o Motor
 Troubleshooting Binding
Turn off the power to the scanner and move the affected parts by hand. Feel the motion for
spots where the carriages are more difficult to move. Listen for unusual noises.
The following are common causes for Transverse Binding
 High Voltage Cable Routing

One of the most common problems is a failure of the Source and Detector to reach the rear
Limit Switch due to the Tube Head running into its own high voltage cables. These cables must
have an arc formed at the Rear Longitudinal Carriage that allows the lower portion of the Tube
Head to pass over the cables. The High Voltage Cables can also impede transverse motion
toward the front Limit Switch. This is caused when the cables have been tied down without
enough play for the Tube Head and Detector to move all the way forward. These problems
should be investigated by manually tripping both Limit Switches while inspecting for cable
conflicts, binding, or tension problems.
 Wiring
In rare instances, the wires from the Shutter Solenoid and/or Fans can snag on the bolts that
protrude through the frame on the foot end of the scanner. This is solved by properly tying
down these wires.

 Transverse Belt
The Transverse Belt should not be excessively tightened or this will cause excessive binding in
the transverse mechanism. It should be possible to deflect the belt by 4 cm when it is properly
tightened. Sometimes the spare belt material near the clamp on the Tube Head Carriage comes
into contact with the forward gear and prevents the scanner from going all the way to Home
position.
 Drive Wheels
The wheels that support the Tube Head and Detector Carriages must be adjusted so that they
come into perfect contact with the Transverse Rails. These wheels are best inspected with the
table top, front panel and arm covers off so one can sight down the extrusions. However, it is
possible to test the wheels by preventing any wheel from turning and seeing if the carriage will
still move. By preventing any wheel from turning, you should be able to tell that it slides along
the extrusion while the others roll. This indicates that the wheel has not been excessively
tightened down. This is least likely to be the source of transverse motion problems, as it is
unlikely that the adjustment of the wheels would have become any tighter over time. They
would be more likely to loosen over time and fail alignment tests (see Alignment Test, section
Adjustments can be made by loosening and rotating the eccentric bearings of any of the lower
wheels.
 Limit Switch Positioning
If the transverse motion seems to be acceptable, but the number of steps in the Quality
Assurance Test is failing, check the position of the Limit Switches. On Total Body scans, a limit
switch out of position could allow the Source/ Detector Carriages to hit the frame or panels
before the Limit Switch is actuated.
 Transverse Motor
Check the Transverse Motor for a bad electrical connection. Check the pins going through the
bulkhead connector. Pull each wire individually to verify they are connected correctly. A poor
connection at the bulhead can cause the transverse motor to stall.

Troubleshooting
LOSS OF OMI/OMD SIGNAL

If the error occurs consistently on the first line of a patient scan or during the find block portion of the
daily QA, and the scanner is moving in the transverse direction, then check the following:
 Cause: The Interrupt signal is being lost.

 Solution: The pulses that normally enter the cSBC board at J19 may have stopped. These
pulses are necessary to keep the cSBC from resetting. These pulses can be seen on the D28
LED on the cSBC board.
Use the DPX Bravo service software (Tools/Diagnostics/Scanner Motion / Motion Commands
Tab) to set the joystick speed to 50 steps, enable the joystick and watch the LED. If the
OMI/OMD is working the Light will flash when the Transverse Motor is run. If the LED flashes
when the mechanics are engaged, but the error still occurs, the interrupt was invalid. Check for
arcing in the high voltage system or replace the cSBC.
If the LED D28 on the cSBC does not flash,

 Verify that the slotted disk at the front of the lower arm rail is in the middle of the slot between
the photo diode and phototransistor.
 The slotted disk must be completely flat and remain in the center of the sensor slot during its
entire rotation.
 If the slotted disk has been in physical contact with the optical sensor, the sensor may have
debris on it, disassemble this mechanism, and clean the sensor and the slots of the disk.
 Check the Cable running from the cSBC to the OMI/OMD for a cable break by checking the
individual wires for continuity.
LONGITUDINAL MOTION FAILURE

 cSBC/ OMI/OMD fail to see longitudinal motion during a patient scan, an interrupt signal is
generated by the cSBC which resets and closes the shutter.
 A slotted disk at the foot end of the table on the pulley for the Longitudinal Drive Belt rotates
through an infrared beam (OMI/OMD), and pulses are sent to the cSBC board when there is
transverse motion.
 The transverse and longitudinal motion detection system (on cSBC) is operational during
patient scans and the find block portion of the daily QA. If the problem occurs during a quality
assurance, for instance, it may be the high voltage system is arcing or the OMI/OMD may be
malfunctioning.
LIMIT SWITCH TRIPPED DURING A SCAN
 Cause: When scanning, a defect in the longitudinal mechanics (binding) or a mis-positioned

patient may cause one of the longitudinal limit switches to close when the scanner is
acquiring data. Closure of a limit switch prevents further operation of the motor. The shutter
will close, the shutter open lamp will go out and the end of exposure alarm will sound.
Seconds later the error message will appear on the screen.
 Solution: If the patient is not centered on the table top (length wise) or if the region being
scanned is too close to a limit in longitudinal travel, the limit switch may be close while
scanning. Re position the patient on the table, further away from the limit.

Rev. 3 Nov 2011
LONGITUDINAL BINDING
If the scan arm fails to move when scanning check the stepper motor and the Gecko Motor Controller
or the Stepper motor incase of a DPX Bravo/ DPX Duo, if arm motion is irregular, check for binding.
Turn off the power to the scanner and move the affected parts by hand. Feel the motion for spots
where the arm is more difficult to move. Listen for unusual noises.
When moving the arm longitudinally, only push on the arm column. Pushing on the forward
parts of the arm can compromise tube head/Detector alignment.
 Cable Track
The major impediment to longitudinal motion is the plastic Cable Track at the rear of the
scanner. This track is attached at two points: at the Rear Longitudinal Carriage and to the
scanner frame (low, rear and center) each spot by 4 bolts. Also, adequate slack must be left in
the cables inside the Cable Track or they will stop the arm from moving fully to the foot end.
Should the Cable Track detach from the scanner frame, it will slide freely and will eventually
cause trouble. This can allow the Cable Track to get in between the Rear Longitudinal Carriage
and the scanner frame on the foot end preventing the tripping of the limit switch.
 Front Longitudinal Carriage Dragging

Check the distance between the front longitudinal carriage and the longitudinal rail with a
go/nogo gauge. The carriage should not rub the front rail, if necessary insert shims behind the
front longitudinal carriage.
 Limit Switch Positioning
If the longitudinal motion seems to be acceptable, but the number of steps in the Quality
Assurance Test is failing, check the position of the Limit Switches. On Total Body scans, a limit
switch out of position could allow the Source/ Detector Carriages to hit the frame or panels of
the scanner before the Limit Switch. If the mechanical stop is reached before the Limit Switch is
actuated, check carefully to see which part of the Arm Assembly is in contact with the Table
Assembly. The front part of the Lower Transverse Extrusion is clamped to the Longitudinal Drive
Cable at the front of the scanner. If the Lower Transverse Extrusion is not clamped in such a
way that it forms a 90-degree angle with the length of the table, the rollers at the front end of
the Lower Transverse Extrusion may strike the end of the scan table before the Limit Switch is
actuated.
 Longitudinal Motor
Check the motor for a bad electrical connection to the Motor.
 Longitudinal Belt
The Longitudinal Belt should not be tightened too much or this will cause the brackets holding
the gears to deform at either end of the scanner. When the belt is properly tightened, it should
be possible to deflect the upper and lower sides of the belt so that they touch within 8 cm of the
gears at either end.
 Drive Wheels
The rollers in front and the wheels in back that support the Arm must be adjusted so that they
come into perfect contact with the Longitudinal Rails. Test them by preventing any wheel from
turning and see if the carriage will still move. By preventing any wheel from turning, it should be
possible to slide the carriage along the rail with one wheel dragging while the others roll. This
indicates that the wheel has not been excessively tightened down. Adjustments can be made
by loosening and rotating the eccentric bearings of any of the lower wheels.

Troubleshooting
LOSS OF OMI/OMD SIGNAL

If the Scan Arm motion is irregular, or scraping noises are heard, the Longitudinal Mechanics may be
binding. The daily QA Mechanics Test will typically detect this symptom as a failure. If the error occurs
consistently after the first line of a patient scan, and the scanner is moving in the longitudinal direction,
then check the following:
 Cause: The Interrupt signal is being lost.

 Solution: The pulses that normally enter the cSBC board at J24 (the black wire at the center of
the connector) may have stopped. These pulses are necessary to keep the cSBC board from
interrupting. These pulses can be seen on the cSBC on LED D24. Use the enCORE service
software (Tools/Diagnostics/Scanner Motion / Motion Commands Tab) to set the joystick
speed to 50 steps, enable the joystick and watch the LED. If the OMI/OMD / cSBC is working
the Light will flash when the Longitudinal Motor is run. If the LED flashes when the mechanics
are engaged, but the error still occurs, the interrupt was invalid. Check for arcing in the high
voltage system or replace the cSBC.
If the LED D24 does not flash,

 Verify that the slotted disk at the foot end of the scan table is in the middle of the slot between
the photo diode and photo transistor.

 The slotted disk must be completely flat and remain in the center of the sensor slot during its
entire rotation.
 If the slotted disk has been in physical contact with the optical sensor, the sensor may have
debris on it, disassemble this mechanism, and clean the sensor and the slots of the disk.
 Check the Cable running from the cSBC to the OMI/OMD for a cable break by checking the
individual wires for continuity.
FAILURE OF THE DC POWER SUPPLY

The DC power supply is always on when the main breaker is on. The cSBC will sense and send error
messages to the host PC upon failure of the DC power supply.
 If the +5 VDC line is not present, the cSBC will not be able to communicate with the scanner.
Measure the TP78 for a 5VDC.
 The power on LED on the display panel will not illuminate unless both the +5 and +24 VDC
lines are present. The 24VDC can be measured on the TP88 on the cSBC board.
If the LED’s are lit but the scanner fails to ramp:

 This supply is turned on by the X-ray Relay, so verify that the Relay is closing. If not, then either
the Relay is bad or it is not receiving the signal from the cSBC.
 Check the High voltage power supplies, insure they are ramping.
 The Tube Head Thermostat is wired in series with the Relay, so if it has opened, the Relay will
not be able to close.

Rev. 3 Nov 2011
EMERGENCY STOP BUTTON

The Emergency Stop button is a normally closed circuit, if it opens the Emergency Stop and the cSBC
will generate an interrupt.
 Verify that the emergency stop button is out. If it has been pressed in, press it again to release
it.
 If 22 -27 VDC can be measured on both pins 10 and 11 of cSBC connector J19, the Emergency
Stop Switch and the wires connecting it to the cSBC board are good and the cSBC board
should be replaced.
 If the voltage is missing, the circuit is open between the cSBC and the Switch.
 Insure the switch is functional
 Check the continuity of the wires from the switch to the bulkhead connector to the cSBC
board.
TUBE HEAD THERMOSTAT

There is a thermostat on the top of the tube head. This thermostat is normally closed, but opens when
the Tube Head temperature is too high.
 The thermostat will close again automatically after a cool down period of usually less than 30
minutes.
 If +24 VDC is measured on both pins 9 and 10 of cSBC connector J25, the Thermostat and the
wires connecting it to the cSBC board are good and the cSBC board should be replaced.
COMMUNICATION ERROR
The computer is not communicating with the cSBC board. Verify communications with the cSBC in the
service software (Tools/Service Options Comm tab - Test Communications).
If this is unsuccessful:
 Verify that the green power on LED is illuminated on the display panel.
 Verify that +5 VDC is present on TP78 of the cSBC, if +5 VDC is not present, replace the DC
power supply.
 Verify that the I/O cable from the computer to the cSBC Board is secure.
 If all fails, the cSBC or computer serial port is defective.
On the Prodigy Only the host computer can talk directly to the detector board. Go to tools > Service
Options and comm tab. Click on check communications. To test the communications simply unplug
the serial cable at the J27 on the cSBC and connect it directly to the Detector.

Troubleshooting
ARCING
The X-ray Tube Head Insert is an evacuated glass enclosure. An AC current is applied to the filament
inside the insert. It glows like the filament in a light bulb, and electrons are boiled off into the
evacuated space. A high voltage is applied between the anode and the cathode causing electrons to
rush toward the anode, striking it and creating x-rays. As long as the insert is properly evacuated,
there can be no internal arc. However, no insert can be totally evacuated and impurities can be ionized
creating a lightning like effect; arcing. During the arc the resistance of the insert is dramatically
decreased and a large amount of current flows.
 The significant amounts of electromagnetic energy released inside the scanner can cause
problems with the electronics of the scanner system and may result in abnormal operations
of the scanner. Arcs are found by the HVPS arc detection circuit. Look "HVPS detected an arc"
in the error log or monitor deviations.
 Prodigy with version 8.0 enCORE software and higher will rescan the line on arc detection.
 DPX Bravo/ DPX Duo can interpolate over line where an arc was detected.
IMAGING PROBLEMS
The cause of the problem will be difficult to find. Try to obtain some additional information; the error
log is an excellent source.
WHITE OR GREY IN THE FIRST OR SECOND SCAN LINE

The software is not perfect in its ability to determine the correct grey level of the entire scan based on
the first line of data. Sometimes the grey levels will be set incorrectly during acquisition. During
analysis the grey level is easily adjusted to give a good image, and the results are not affected by this
imaging problem. This problem is most often found on very thin patients. Adding extra tissue
equivalent material (rice bag or saline solution) to a very thin patient may be all that is necessary to
cure the symptom.
AP-SPINE IMAGE PROBLEMS: PROBABLE CAUSES
 The shutter closes (causes the shutter open lamp to go out, and the End of Exposure Alarm to
sound).
 Increase or reduction of high voltage to the detector (causes horizontal artifacts in the image).
 Loss of the signal from the detector
 Loss of current to the x-ray insert filament.
 Bad x-ray relay contacts (providing power to tube head power supplies)
 Reduction in AC Line voltage
 Loss of proper high voltage on the x-ray tube
 Arcing (may cause vertical artifacts in the image)
 Single channel dropping out or getting noisy.

Rev. 3 Nov 2011
BROKEN SIGNAL CABLE

The cables which carry the voltage to the detector and return the signal from the detector array are
part of the upper and lower cable bundle assemblies. Any break or significant pinch of the cable can
cause reduction in counts in either or both channels. This could result in horizontal artifacts.
UNSTABLE AC LINE
If the customer's AC line conditions are unstable, voltages 11% below the scanners AC input
configuration will begin to drop the high voltage on the xray tube. The counts will drop significantly
with only a change of a few kV. It also likely to produce HVPS errors in the error log.
ARCING
If the tube head is arcing, the arcs will be more likely to occur at the higher current settings. Arcing
generally also causes other strange symptoms such as:
 Scanner stops in the middle of a patient or QA scan with no error message or with transverse
mechanics fail
 The QA scan fails intermittently on bone chamber measurements

 The scanner periodically leaves the message on the screen "Starting Xrays Please Wait" for a
longer than normal period of time (more than 10 seconds)
If you see arcing symptoms, try the following service action:

 View the Quality Assurance History. In particular note the trend in BM Values as discussed in
the Failing QA's section.
If there is evidence of failures in the mean BM value:

 Repack the high voltage connections. Note if an arc track is visible in the insulation
compound.
 Replacement of the tube head if no arc tracks are discovered, or if the repacking of the
connectors does not eliminate all arcing symptoms.
FAILING QUALITY ASSURANCE TEST

See Systems Overview, for explanations of the various tests that are performed during the running of
the Daily Quality Assurance. If any of the QA test results fail, none of the results are considered valid.
The results will be stored in the Quality Assurance History file, but these values will not be averaged
with the other results for calibration purposes. In addition, the software will prevent patient scans until
a passing daily QA has been completed. Recent valid QA's are necessary for accurate results.
BLOCK POSITION
After starting a QA, the operator is prompted to place the QA standard on the table, if the Prodigy or
the DPX Bravo/ DPX Duo fails to detect the Block in the correct orientation the QA will not progress.
 Check Block position and orientation
The scanner may not be finding the correct "Home" position. The correct "Home" position aligns
the center of the x-ray beam with the center of the Brass Piece when the Standard is correctly
positioned. The Air Counts must be obtained through the lucite of the standard, next to the
96 of 110
Lunar.

Troubleshooting
Brass Piece. If the Reference Counts are obtained with the x-ray beam passing through the
Brass Piece, the Quality Assurance Scan will fail.
 Check Laser Alignment
BEAM STOP ACTION

The Beam Stop Action test verifies the ability of the lead shutter to attenuate x-rays from the tube
head by verifying that the Background counts when the shutter is closed are lower than counts taken
through the brass piece with the shutter open. This test also checks for detector noise.
MEAN % SPILLOVER
An increase in the Spillover percentage over time is an indication that the detector is losing resolution,
even if the Spillover test does not fail. A large change in the Spillover can be explained in some cases
by standard positioning (or a small change in the home position of the scanner). If the beam is not fully
eclipsed by the brass piece during the Spillover test, the Spillover value increases dramatically.
REFERENCE COUNTS AND RATIO

During this test, the baseline is established which will later be used for comparing with the values
obtained during the scan of the standard. Care should be taken that the x-ray beam is not missing the
standard, or being obstructed by the brass piece on the standard during the High and Low Air Count
test. The Ratio value should remain constant.
RATIO FLUCTUATIONS
The Ref Ratio (1.5mA) is the ratio of LE reference counts to the HE reference counts. The Ratio should
remain constant as long as the x-ray beam quality and the resolution of the detector remain constant.
It is possible to view the Ratio trends in the Quality Assurance History. Check 1.5 L/H Ratio to determine
if the Ratio has changed significantly.
The problems which could cause a change in air ratio are:
 Deterioration of the resolution of the detector
 A faulty High Voltage Power Supply (kV unstable over time)
 Changes to the x-ray tube insert
These are very difficult to diagnose by a method other than substitution of new components until the
Reference Counts Ratio returns to normal.
Detector deterioration or an unstable High Voltage Power Supply will usually cause the Alignment Test
Scan to fail.
TRANSVERSE OR LONGITUDINAL MECHANICS

Failure of this test is caused by one or more of the following:
 Incorrect Limit Switch positioning
 Defective Limit Switch
 A mechanical constraint
 A defective Motor
 Belt Tension
97 of 110
Lunar.

Rev. 3 Nov 2011
The values recorded for these tests should remain fairly constant over time. Variations between QA's of
under 25 steps should not be a cause for concern as 1 transverse step = 0.05 mm and 1 longitudinal
step = 0.1 mm, so the actual variation is only a few millimeters. If the number of steps continually
increases from QA to QA, this could indicate an impediment to the scanner's motion and should be
rectified.
TISSUE VALUE
The tissue value should not be the sole failing parameter. The failure of this test is usually
accompanied by problems with Bone Mineral values (see below) or Reference Counts Ratio trends (see
above). If this is failing alone it is probably a problem with the counting system or high or low kV.
BONE MINERAL OF THE STANDARD CHAMBERS

The software contains values which it expects the scanner to measure for the scan of each chamber. If
the mean of the BM measurements made for the chamber does not fall within the predefined software
limits the QA will fail.These failures will always occur if the Reference Counts or Reference Ratio test
have deviated severely from normal results. However if the Reference Count results look normal, and
the values are approximately equal to the numbers obtained during the scanner installation, then the
counts may be unstable.
Another cause of failing on the bone chamber measurements can be arcing during the QA. This can be
detected by examining the QA History graphically and looking for variation of the Large BM values.
Note the few data points that vary. These are the early signs of arcing.
This will also be apparent (but not obvious) on the QA Results printout. The arc occurred in the third
standard scan and elevated the BM values. If a customer reports a failing QA because of a bone
chamber measurement being too high, be aware that this could be an early warning of arcing. Obtain
from the site the QA history file and error log for analysis. Look for variation of the Large BM values.
It is very important to notice these early warning signs of arcing so that the system can be re-greased
before any damage is done to the high voltage cable connectors or the tube head.
SYMPTOMS OF HIGH AND LOW KV

It has been noted in a small number of cases that defective high voltage power supplies, or an arcing
tube head may produce a voltage other than 76 kV.
Note: A complete parts list for the cases above would include high voltage power supply, AND a tube
head, however, the tube head is typically the source of the fault.
COMMUNICATIONS FAILURES
Should the scanner, and host computer with each other, there are a number of things to check: A good
troubleshooting tool is the COMM test in Tools/Service Options - Serial tab.
Check
 The I/O cable connections at the serial port on the back of the Host computer and at the cSBC.
Be sure both connections are tight and that the thumb screws are used to hold the
connectors firmly together.
 Inspect the connector on the cSBC. This connector is fragile and could be damaged. Be careful
when connecting the I/O cables to the SBC.
 Check and inspect the Signal Cable input at the cSBC
98 of 110
Lunar.

Troubleshooting
 Verify the power LED’s on the cSBC are lit (D7 for +5VDC, D13 for +24VDC, D14 for +12 VDC,
D15 for –12VDC)
 If the ports are properly configured and all power is present, and communication still fails,
then the probable causes are:
 A faulty I/O cable.
 A faulty cSBC.
 A faulty serial port / serial port card.
 Replacement of these parts are appropriate troubleshooting method.
CSBC TROUBLESHOOTING
The cSBC consists of a single circuit board that uses the Altera FPGA with a RS-422/RS-232 interface to
the Host PC. The SBC is located on the front of the electronics pan for both both Prodigy and DPX
Bravo/ DPX Duo.
What to look for

 LED D7 for +5VDC,
 LED D13 for +24VDC,
 LED D14 for +12 VDC,
 LED D15 for –12VDC
 LED D19 is lit when scanner is in reset mode

 LED D20 is lit when CPU is in reset mode
When reset LED is lit:

 Go to Tools - Service Options - Communications Tab – test communications

INDICATOR FAILURES
X-RAY ON LED BLINKING
The yellow X-RAY ON LED should glow steadily once it is illuminated, until the x-rays are turned off. The
Yellow LED is controlled by the HVPS enable and the Flex PLD on the cSBC. The LED illuminates when
approximately 40µA (or greater) of current is passing through the X-ray Insert. The cSBC monitors the
Insert current constantly. Therefore, if the current to the Insert is interrupted, the cSBC will recognize
the problem and will alert the computer, and terminate the exposure. The cause of the blinking could
also be because of bad cabling.
SHUTTER OPEN LED BLINKING

The amber Shutter Open LED is controlled by the sensor on the Shutter/ Collimator Assembly. If the
sensor is defective or improperly adjusted, the Shutter Open LED may be switched on and off. This will
usually be accompanied by the sound of the End of Exposure Alarm if an exposure is underway.
If the Shutter is actually opening and closing intermittently and uncontrollably, the problem is either on
the cSBC, or a broken wire between the cSBC and the Shutter/Collimator Assembly. Remove connector
J26 from the cSBC Board and measure the resistance between pin 5 and pin 6. This will be a
measurement of the resistance of the Shutter Solenoid and the cable through the Cable Track. If the
problem occurs on every scan, run a scan while making this continuity check. If the cable and solenoid
seem to be working properly, substitute a new cSBC Board. The cause of the blinking could also be
because of bad cabling.
SHUTTER NOT OPERATING

If the Shutter Solenoid will not open, the problem may be caused by one of the following:
 Solenoid Cable-Remove J26 from the cSBC Board and check continuity between pin 5 and 6
(see Shutter Open LED Blinking above).
 cSBC Board-Replace the cSBC Board.
 Physical obstruction
END OF EXPOSURE ALARM DURING SCAN

If the sharp "Ping" sound of the End of Exposure Alarm is heard during a scan, look at the computer
display to see if a Diagnostic Failure Code is being reported. If no Diagnostic Failure Code is reported,
the scanner may still be in motion continuing with the scan. Abort the scan and remove the patient
from the table. In any case, note the status of the SHUTTER OPEN light and the XRAY ON light.
 Both the SHUTTER OPEN light and the X-RAY ON light are on and steady. This would indicate a
faulty cSBC board. Replace it
 The SHUTTER OPEN light is off. This could indicate the following:

Troubleshooting
LIMIT SWITCH TRIPPED DURING SCAN

If a Limit Switch is tripped during an install test, verify the Limit Switches' location with the Service
Software (Tools > Diagnostics > Scanner Motion). If this problem occurs any time after install, see the
problem description below. If the transverse mechanics of the scanner become imprecise, it may
cause a Limit Switch to be tripped during a scan. This will usually only happen during a total body scan
or during an Alignment Test test since both of these scans involve full-width scanning. Once the switch
is closed, the motors stop, the End-of-Exposure Alarm sounds, the amber SHUTTER OPEN lamp turns
off and after a few seconds a Diagnostic Failure appears on the screen.
 During full-width scanning, the Detector Carriage comes very close to the Limit Switches, so
any imprecision will cause a Limit Switch to be tripped and the scan will be aborted with a
Diagnostic Failure message for Transverse Motion Failure.
A cause of this problem is a loosening of the drive Belt that connected to the Transverse Motor.
This loosening causes the belt to "walk" on the pulleys causing enough imprecision in the
motion to trip a switch. To tighten the belt, loosen the two nuts that hold the return pulley in
place. Then, while holding the pulley such that the belt is pulled taught, tighten the nuts to
secure the pulley in place. Test the scanner (an Alignment Test works well).
If the Tube Head cables come into contact with the cable bundle entering the cable track, it
may be impossible for the scanner to complete all of the necessary transverse steps away from
the operator. Consequently, on each scan line the detector will move closer to the front
transverse limit switch, and the switch may be eventually closed. Form the cable bundle exiting
from the cable track into an arch such that the Tube Head cables will move under the arch
rather than running into the bundle. This arch must not be too high. If it is, there will not be
sufficient slack in the Tube Head cable bundle to allow the Tube Head to move to the front
transverse limit switch. Also, if the arch is too small, it may cause too much slack when the Tube
Head is at the forward side of the table. This causes the Tube Head cable bundle to rub against
the inside of the front panel causing a scraping noise to be heard. If the above does not solve
the problem then check the other mechanical components. Electrical components that could
cause such a failure are the Transverse Motor in both Prodigy and DPX Bravo/ DPX Duo, the
motor controller in the Prodigy, or the cSBC board.
OMI/OMD BOARD TROUBLESHOOTING

The OMI/OMD board, being a rather uncomplicated device, has little in the way of things to watch for
in installation and use. There are two such boards, one on the Front Longitudinal Carriage (transverse),
and at the foot of the scanner on the longitudinal idler shaft (longitudinal).
Symptoms of possible OMI/OMD failure

 Scanner shuts down at the beginning of a patient scan.
 Scanner shuts down unexpectedly during a scan.
 Either condition above should be accompanied by a Diagnostic Failure
 Transverse or Longitudinal failure

What to look for
 Check the connector to each board for proper seating.
 Examine the area where the wires attach to the board itself; it is possible the may fray or
break.
 Insure that the interrupter disk does not rub against the plastic detector housing. If it does,
adjust by loosening the two machine screws that attach the plastic detector, reposition the
detector and re-tighten the screws.

Electrical tests
The signal from the OMI/OMD board is nominally rectangular in shape. The signal is generated when
the Interrupter Disk alternately passes and occludes a light beam between the two posts on the photo-
transducer. With the beam occluded by the disk, the output signal should be about 5 VDC (close
counts). When the beam is allowed to pass through a slot in the disk, the signal output is near ground
potential.
VIEWING QUALITY ASSURANCE TRENDS

The enCORE software includes the capability to view, print or graph data contained in the Quality
Assurance database. View and print display selected results of many of the tests run during the Daily
Quality Assurance in tabular form. The graph feature will graph the results of only one of the Quality
Assurance parameters. All features allow for the user to select the time period to be examined.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN THE QA HISTORY

All categories should remain steady over time. Check the PASSED column for failed QA’s. If a failing QA
is found, try to determine the cause, including operator error. The limit for % Spillover is 13%.
If any sudden jumps are noticed in the values of any of the categories, determine first if these are due
to service work such as a Tube Head replacement. If service work causes a shift in the QA values, then
compare present values to those obtained only after the service.

MAINTENANCE
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
REMOTE PM
A "ePM" (Remote Preventative Maintenance) can be performed to assess the scanners performance.
The ePM copies a number of files from the system to a diskette to be sent to the LUNAR Customer
Service Department for assessment. If it is identified that the scanner would need further inspection
and maintenance, then an on site service will be performed.
ONSITE PM
There are a number of items to be checked, cleaned and tested during a onsite PM visit. Refer to:
DXSE0038 DEXA PM Quality Record for both Prodigy and DPX Bravo/ DPX Duo
QA HISTORY
An important aspect of the onsite PM is checking the QA History. This is important because when a QA
is run during the onsite PM, it should be consistent with the past QA's. During the onsite PM copy the
QA history file to a diskette and send to the LUNAR Customer Service Department.
SYSTEM SERVICE HISTORY

The service history option maintains a database of the service performed on the scanner. A report of
the Preventive Maintenance service performed on the scanner has to be filled in the service history
option when a onsite PM is performed on the scanner.
The instructions to enter records can be found in the Service Procedure section.
WEAR
The scanner should also be checked for signs of wear when performing an onsite PM. The Shutter
Assembly especially should be inspected. Wear on these parts can cause lead shavings to fall on the
filter in the x-ray beam. This can cause a drastic decline in Reference Counts, causing QA's to fail.
Also check all the scanner's moving parts for signs of wear.
 This would include wheels, pulleys, gears, bearings, belts, cables and motor assemblies.
 INSPECT CAREFULLY cables that enter the plastic cable track. These cables are subjected to a
good deal of motion and thus have the potential for breakage!
 Also, when performing the various tests listed below, listen for any unusual noises that could
be indications of wear.

Rev. 3 Nov 2011
CLEANING
Cleaning the scanner is important should an onsite PM be performed.
 Remove dust and any debris from the electronics mounting chassis.
 Clean the transverse and longitudinal extrusions. Small bits of debris from the wheels may
accumulate and impede motion.
 Clean the Shutter Assembly and the filter, if necessary.
INSPECTION
Inspect the scanner internally and externally for obvious damage and loose connections.
 Check all PCB's for tight mounting screws.
TESTS
Run all other tests according to the Prodigy PM check sheet in DXSE0038 Rev A DEXA PM Quality
Record
UNUSUAL SOUNDS
A high pitched sound is normally heard when the scanner is in motion. This is caused by the high
frequency motor pulses being sent from the Motor Controller to the Transverse and Longitudinal
Motors.
If the high pitched sound only occurs during motor operation, check the optical interrupt disks and
verify that they are not rubbing against the black plastic transducer of the OMI/OMD board. The disk
should turn in the middle of the transducer's slot.
For other sounds of an apparent mechanical nature, check all appropriate gears and pulleys. Verify
that the set screws are tightened and that the gears and pulleys are not out of position. With the
scanner turned off, move the affected parts by hand to determine the exact source of the sound. Also
look for rusted or worn bearings and examine the V-wheels for wear. With age, the longitudinal and
transverse drive belts will dry out and start to cause noises. Treating these belts with belt dressing is a
short term solution until they can be replaced.
Clicking or clucking sounds made during motor operation can be caused by belts that are riding up on
their pulleys, or by a too tight bearing support. The bearing support is held to the carriage by a set
screw from the rear. If this set screw is so tight that the bearing and support have no play (i.e. can be
rocked 1-2 mm), it can cause a clunking sound during transverse motion. If this screw is loosened, it
should be secured with Lock-Tite so it cannot work its way loose.
Pulleys that have become defective can also cause clicking and squeaking/ squealing sounds. Try to
isolate the movement of individual pulleys to locate the defective part. Scraping sounds can be caused
by any of the moving carriages, cables or cable track rubbing against an adjacent panel. Localize the
sound and investigate the appropriate areas.
