SYSTEM NOTATION (NP, NP+, ...)

Hardware Constitution of NP, NP+, NP++, and Twin


According to system models or customer options installed on the system, a number of system specifications or func-
tions available may differ from system to system; such are:

D Selectable scan times, MA values, FOV dimensions

D ‘Remote Tilt’ function

D Number of arrays of DAS/detector units, i.e., single or twin DAS/detector subsystem

D ...

However, the ‘HiSpeed’ series scanners are principally grouped into four, for which the following notations are given
respectively:
‘NP’, ‘NP+’, ‘NP++’ and ‘Twin’
In this ‘Diagnostics’ manual, these notations NP, NP+, NP++, and Twin are used to describe differences among these
four groups and to make descriptions of this manual read simpler.
(However, ‘Twin’ is further grouped into two, that is, ‘NP+ Twin’ and ‘NP++ Twin’. In general outline,
NP+ Twin systems are NP/NP+ systems with a twin DAS/detector, and NP++ Twin systems are NP++ systems
with a twin DAS/detector. These notations also will be used when required.)

The following table describes the constitution of the major hardware of NP, NP+, NP++, and Twin.

Total Gantry Revolu- Indicates the Gantry rotation numbers in “Status” column. This indication can be reset
tions using getStats (section 1-11). The date when the counter was reset is displayed in “In-
formation” column.
The rotation number is slightly less than the mechanical Gantry rotation counter located
near the TGP board (a few %), because this software counter does NOT read all of G
pulse interrupt.
The data of rotation number is sent to the OC just when the Gantry stops.
Total Tube Spits Indicates total tube spits numbers currently.

IQ Performance Tool Status


This tools give us advance notice for IQ performance change.

For the system with V/R 5.5x or later, the two types of warm–up scan can be selected:

D Tube Warm–up: performs tube several warm–up scans. These can achieve 13% case temperature.

D Daily calibration (Warm up): performs conventional tube warm–up scans (tube warm–up scans:30% case
and calibration scans) plus IQ performance measurement scans. (For detail scan protocol, refer to IQ
performance Measurement scan described below.)

So, whenever the daily calibration is performed, the IQ performance data are collected and analyzed automatically,
and the results are stored in the file, then displayed on the “Status” column of the IQ Performance Tool Status. The
“Information” means the date when the status has been determined.
The three types of status are displayed:

D GREEN: displayed when the result is WITHIN allowable specifications. (Also refer to IQ performance tool
specifications.)

D YELLOW: displayed when the result is OUTSIDE OF allowable specifications. There is a possibility to
affect Image Quality. (Also refer to IQ performance tool specifications.)

D RED: displayed when the result is OUTSIDE OF allowable specifications. A serious Image Quality prob-
lem might occur. (Also refer to IQ performance tool specifications.)

Note
The results are stored as a vector file, so that they can also be seen using Scan Analysis, DD file
analysis function. (For mA Smudge and Scan Time Smudge Only, they can not be seen, because
the files can NOT be made.)
The files is stored up to 5MB. In excess of 5MB, the directory of the files will be cleaned up when
executing this tool. Since the vector files of approx. 400 KB per daily calibration are created, 10 days’
data can be stored. However calculation in Scan Analysis reduces data to be stored.

1-18 SCAN ANALYSIS


The scan analysis feature allows users to have interactive access to scan files collected on the scanner. Scan data
to be viewed can come from either Patient Scanning or from service mode tools such as Diagnostic Data Collection
or Calibration.

Analysis is divided into three major areas of: SCAN ANALYSIS, dd FILE ANALYSIS, CAL FILE ANALYSIS, and Z–
tracking (for Twin ONLY). dd FILE ANALYSIS and CAL FILE ANALYSIS is not yet available for this CT System. Each
major section provides an File List Select interface similar to the Image Works List Select, Image Browser. Analysis
List Select allows you to select the appropriate file of interest.

Any of the normal scan files may be selected for processing within Scan Analysis including Axial, Helical, and Scout
scans. Once the scan data of interest is selected you can select one of several processing options which include:
Update, Scan Header, Cal Vectors, Plot MSD, Plot VVC, and Save Scan.

Definitions within Scan Analysis


D dd File (Diagnostic Data File):
dd files are a result file from some type of operation on the scan data file. dd files are typically some form
of view summed file that may have had some specific type of processing applied to it. For example, the
processing applied to the raw data to calculate the position of the pin in ISO alignment results in a tempo-
rary file that is a view summed result that could be saved as a dd file. As long as two dd files have the same
number of data elements in them the two files may be added, subtracted, multiplied, or divided with each
other.

D Means and Standard Deviation File (MSD):


This is usually the result of combining two or more views mathematically which results in Mean Values
for each channel in the views and an associated Standard Deviation for each channel in the views. In es-
sence all of the user selected views in a scan file are summed together resulting in a single “master view”
that contains the averaged data from all of the views. The mean values represent the average data value
from the channels and the standard deviation values represent the amount of variability for that channels
data values across all of the views. The higher the standard deviation the more the channel output varied
from view to view.

D Scan Header:
This is the information contained within the Scan File that identifies the specific settings in affect when
that scan file was created. The Scan Header includes information at several levels including: Exam, Se-
ries, and Scan. Information identifying the technique selections, scan time, acquisition mode, and many
others may be found in the scan header.

D Cal Vectors:
Within Scan Analysis the Cal Vectors are only those vectors contained within the Scan Data File at the
time that the scan was taken.

D VVC (Views vs Channels):


This is a way to graphically represent the data values from each channel for each view of data from the
S–DAS as a shade of grey. The display will have the views stacked vertically and the channels arranged
across the display horizontally.

Starting the Scan Analysis


Click on Scan Analysis. The following window appears.

Selections in Scan Analysis


Upon starting the Scan List Select window, you can highlight an EXAM –> SERIES –> SCAN, and perform the desired
analysis feature by pressing any of the following buttons:

D Update:
The UPDATE selection will refresh the List Select Display if new scan files have been created since the
Scan Analysis Tool was started.

D Scan Header:
The SCAN HEADER selection will open a scrolling text window that contains the header text information
contained in select scan file.

D Cal Vectors:
The CAL VECTOR selection will open a window that allows you to select which of the calibration vectors
in the selected scan file that you wish to look at. After the selections are made, OK will process the data
requests and display the results.
The resultant plots will be auto–scaled and in some cases the range of data displayed will be set automati-
cally. This is to provide a reasonable initial view of the data. Always check the scale on the left hand side
of the plot displays. Cursor reporting of data value and channel numbers is provided.

D Create MDS DD File: (For V/R 5.5x or later)
This will calculate a view averaged “super view” for the selected views and store the results in a separate
file on the systems disk. The display will report the path and filename of the file just created. Once created,
dd File can be viewed or compared with other files to check for specific operating characteristics.

D Plot MSD:
Provides a set of view summed Means and Standard Deviation Plots of a scan file. The plotter is started
to display the means vectors and the standard deviation vectors, computed across the entire scan for each
detector macro row. There will be (4) mean and standard deviation plot sets in the display window.
After Plot MSD is started, a preprocessing option selection window appears:

– Offset Correction:
This processing step removes from the scan data, the signal bias introduced by the acquisition
electronics. This operation is performed on a channel by channel basis for each view.

– Reference Normalization:
Makes use of unobstructed (not blocked by the patient) detector cells at the end of the detector
to adjust for fluctuations in the x–ray beam and effects of aperture size and mA. In the case where
the reference channels are blocked, the system uses an estimated value for the processing. The
steps for Reference Normalizing the scan data involves: Offset Correction for the Reference
Channels, Dividing the Offset Corrected Scan Data by the Averaged Reference Channels for
each view.

– Log Conversion:
The log operation is applied.

– Convolved Data:
This processing step mathematically filters the channel data to remove blurring affects that would
occur when the views are back–projected. The affect is to ‘sharpen’ each channels data value
within the view. Without the convolution step, some of the x–ray attenuation data for a particular
channel ends up in the channels on either side of that particular channel. Convolution puts that
adjacent channel contribution back into the channel data that it should have been in to begin with.

Cursor reporting of data value and channel numbers is provided.

D PLOT VVC:
The PLOT VVC selection provides Views–vs–Channels display of a grey scale representation for the se-
lected scan file. Each view of data (or summed, compressed view) is represented on the display as a hori-
zontal line. Each pixel in the line represents the data value for a particular channel from the DAS.
After VVC is activated,a preprocessing option selection window appears:

– Offset Correction:
This processing step removes from the scan data, the signal bias introduced by the acquisition
electronics. This operation is performed on a channel by channel basis for each view.

– FFT channel Data:


The combination operation of Offset Correction, Reference Normalization, and Log Conversion
is applied.

– Convolved Data:
This processing step mathematically filters the channel data to remove blurring affects that would
occur when the views are back–projected. The affect is to ‘sharpen’ each channels data value
within the view. Without the convolution step, some of the x–ray attenuation data for a particular

CURSOR BEHAVIOR IN VVC:


Cross hair Cursor reporting is provided for: Data Value, DAS Channel, Detector Channel, and View
number. The cursor is moved across the display using the mouse.
A selection box on the display allows selection of Line Cursors (Channel and View) and Box Cursors (Rec-
tangle) which allow the selection of a Channel, View, or Group of channels and views for plotting. The line
and box cursors can be moved around the screen to view specific areas of interest. When the mouse point-
er cursor is moved over a line cursor the mouse cursor will change to a four pointer arrow. Pressing the
left mouse button allows you to ‘drag’ the cursor across the display.
For the box cursors, the box may be dragged using the left mouse button with the mouse cursor positioned
over the box. The size and shape of the box can be changed by moving the mouse cursor over the Bottom
or Right edges of the box. When over the Bottom or Right edges of the box you can press the left mouse
button to drag the box edge up and down or left and right.
With the Line (Channel and View) cursors the plotted data will represent all Channels for a selected View
or all Views for a selected Channel.
With the Box Cursors the resulting plot will be a view summed Means and Standard Deviation plot for the
selected views and channels.

In the figures that follow, examples of “known” Tracking plots are shown. Since plots vary from system to system, the
examples shown should be used only as guides. Compare your System’s plots and analyze them relative to the speci-
fication shown in each figure. The plots shown are UN–FILTERED views, which is the default option when they are
plotted. A 20 point boxcar filter takes the 20 view average and then plots the data.

A value is not considered to be out of specification, unless the limit is exceeded for a sustained interval of 100 views
or more. In the cases where specifications are not given, consider plots informational only.

To use the function “Save to File” , need to make a directory named “data” under root. Then after performing Save
to File, plot data is displayed and text file will be stored into data directory as named “TrackingVsScan.txt” (about 15KB
size). But it is not so useful because of text file.

It is recommended to remove the directory “data” after checking the TrackingVsScan.txt file for system stability.

dd File List Select Overview


dd math is a means for the user to apply mathematical operations: add, subtract, multiply, and divide to dd files, and
calculate the channel to channel difference or ratio of means vs. standard deviation vectors of a dd file. It allows the
user to specify the scaling factor for the output vector, and provides three output modes: plot, dd file, and view num-
bers.

dd math is part of the dd analysis user interface. Scan Analysis is used to generate dd files that may then be manipu-
lated and or examined using dd File Analysis.

Operating dd Math Function


The dd math operation buttons will be insensitive if no files are selected into the dd math operation panel.

1. The user may start dd math operation(s) by selecting the file(s) and putting them into the selection field by clicking
the button FILE #1 or FILE #2.

If the selected file is not a dd file, the application will not put it into the dd math operation field. A message window
will pop up and ask user to select a dd file.

If only one file is selected and it is of the file type RTS dd file or MSD dd file, both Ch2Ch (Channel to Channel)
and Ratio (RATIO OF MEANS VS. STDV) will become sensitive.

If the selected file is not of the type MSD or RTS, only Ch2Ch will become sensitive.

When two dd files are selected, + (ADD), – (SUBTRACT), x (MULTIPLY), and / (DIVIDE) become sensitive and
Ch2Ch and Ratio will be insensitive.

2. The user can specify the output file name when the dd file output mode is set. Otherwise a default dd file name
will be provided.

3. The default output scaling factor is 1.0. The user can set the scaling factor to any real number.

4. When the dd math operation buttons are sensitive, the user can select the desired button to start the dd math
operation.

dd Files Generation
There are 18 different dd file types of six orientations. The orientations are View, Channel, RTS, CAL, Elements, and
Header.

Channel oriented means and standard deviation type dd files are the only type that can be created from scan data
files in the Scan Analysis application.

dd Math Functions
dd math consists of the following functions:

D Add

D Subtract

D Multiply

D Divide

D Channel to Channel (Ch2Ch) difference

D Ratio of means vs. standard deviation

Perform: add, subtract, multiply, divide, and channel to channel difference operations on dd files. These operations
are only available for dd file types.

Add, Subtract, Multiply, Divide


Applies add, subtract, multiply, and divide between vectors in two dd files. The output file is a dd file with one of the
following suffixes:

D .add

D .dif

D .mul

D .rat

Operations can be performed on dd files in View orientation, Channel orientation, RTS orientation, and Cal orientation.

Currently, no dd type restrictions are applied to operations between dd files, as long as the dd vectors have the same
number of elements. If one file has a single vector and the other file has multiple vectors the mathematical operation
will be applied multiple times using the single vector.
Otherwise the mathematical operation will be applied component wise for the number of vectors in each file.

Channel to Channel Difference


Applies the following calculation to the data from the data set(s) in the dd files for View, RTS or Cal orientation.
(X2–X1), (X3–X2), (X4–X3),...,(Xn–Xn–1)
Where X is the data value for each channel.
The output is channel to channel dd file with extension: .c2c

ÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍ
duce a Histogram of the entire gesyslog and display the results in a graphical, bar chart format. An additional feature

ÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍ
is to first apply a fixed filter to the entire gesyslog and then produce a graphical histogram of the filtered results.
Additional Histogram and Filter Functions are planned to be added in later software releases based upon your and

ÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍ

ÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍ
buffer pages currently being viewed. The current Histogram processing counts the number of times that
individual software processes (programs) log messages to the gesyslog.

ÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍ

ÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍ
a filter to the gesyslog and then produce a Histogram of that result.

ÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍ
The current fixed filter is a list of ‘key word strings’. In the future we will add additional filter sets based
upon field and engineering inputs.

SYSLOG – OC
When you select either SYSLOG OC, the System Browser will display the IRX SYSLOG Files on the respective com-
puter. These are the logs normally found at /var/adm on the OC system.

Once again you may select one or more of the log files to view in the Options: window and then select the View File
Button to retrieve and display the requested information. The Search and Next, Previous, First and Last functions
operate the same as for the basic gesyslog viewer.

The IOS log files are created and updated by various scanner application software processes.
These processes include: Image Browser, Image Database Read Server, Image Database Write Server, Image Serv-
er, DICOM Server, Image Acquisition Server, Networking Server, Film Composer Log, Printer Server, Archive, Dis-
play, and Filming.

The System Browser has the same operation and capabilities as those for viewing the IRIX SYSLOG files.

Communications between OC, TGP, OGP, CIF(DAS) and kV Control(JEDI) are tested during Wake–up communica-
tion sequence. You can diagnose the communication failure by utilize this functionality.

6-1-1 Theory of Wake–up Communication


(1) OC will start Wake–up communication by sending SysConfig CMD to TGP(MP). The purpose of this
is to make sure about communication between each processors and to make each processors know
the current system configuration. The starting timing is one of followings:

– Just after OC is booted–up

– Just after receiving SysConfig Request from TGP(MP). TGP(MP) keeps sending SysConfig
Request to OC after booted–up until it receives SysConfig CMD from OC.

– When OC found the contents of SysConfig is changed.

If OC sends SysConfig CMD to TGP(MP) 3 times without successful, OC gives up communication


and output error message on gesyslog as below.

Failed to get response of system config.


Code is 3

Even under this sitation, OC looks booted–up correctly except error above. But the time moving from
New Patient Screen to Scan Edit Screen becomes extremely slowed down, which takes around 1
minutes. Also, Confirm button is never activated.

REV 17 2202119

6-1 COMMUNICATION BETWEEN OC, TGP, OGP, CIF AND JEDI (continued)
(2) After TGP(MP) receives SysConfig CMD, it sends SysConfig CMD to TGP(GP), TGP(TP) and OGP
and wait for the response from each processor. TGP(TP) and TGP(GP) reply for TGP(MP) by send-
ing TG Status.

(3) After OGP receives SysConfig CMD, it sends SysConfig CMD to kV Control(JEDI) and CIF(DAS)..
OGP will wait for their reply.

(4) KV Control(JEDI) and CIF will reply for OGP by sending TG Status. TG Status will include error infor-
mation if there are. In case OGP cannot receive reply from kV Control or CIF in time, OGP put error
information on the TG Status which will be send to TGP(MP).

(5) OGP will send TG Status to TGP(MP) after it receives TG Staus both from kV Control and CIF or after
timeout is detected to receive reply.

(6) TGP(MP) will send TG Status to OC after it receives TG Status from all of TGP(TP), TGP(GP) and
OGP or after timeout is detected to receive reply.

Data from Detector is sampled synchronized with DAS TRIG signal. So DAS Data Path Trouble Shooting can
be separated into DAS TRIG signal trouble shooting and DAS Data troube shooting. DAS TRIG signal is one
of pre–requisite for DAS Data transfer.
Refer to Illustration 6–2.

6-2-1 Pre–requisite
Communication path from OC to CIF, through TGP, Slip Ring and OGP, should be confirmed to work before this
trouble shooting. You can check the result of Wake–up communication for brief confirmation.

6-2-2 DAS TRIG Signal Troubleshooting


There are 3 sources of DAS TRIG signal. 1st one is Azimuth encoder, 2nd is Cradle encoder, 3rd is OGP itself
and last one is TGP. Each sources are selected by OGP and TGP depend on the Scan Type except TGP as
below :
Azimuth Encoder : selected on Axial Scan, Helical and Cine Scan
Cradle Encoder : selected on Scout Scan
OGP ; selected on Stationary Scan
TGP : selected in case reset switch is pushed on TGP.
As described above, DAS TRIG signal line is used to send RESET from TGP to OGP.

If you encounter the trouble related to DAS TRIG signal, it is recommended to try various scan type and resetting
OGP through TGP to identify which path is in failure as followings:

(1) At first, proceed Stationary Scan using Off Line Scan. To make it simplify, data pattern can be set
as DAS pattern, Rotor and X–ray Off and Current Azimuth is suggested. In case you found the failure,
most probable failure is CIF and cabling between CIF and OGP.

(2) Secondly, proceed Scout Scan using Off Line Scan. DAS pattern and Rotor Off is suggested. In case
it does not work, try (4) to check signal line between TGP and OGP. If it does work, most probable
failure is on Cradle Encoder and cabling between this and TGP. On TBLCON BD, there are not any
components for DAS TRIG, but just connect from CN9 to CN1. On TBL BD, there are one component
to change the signal type.

(3) Next, proceed Axial Scan using Off Line Scan. DAS pattern and Rotor Off is suggested. In case it
does not work, try (4) to check signal line between TGP and OGP. If it does work, most probable fail-
ure is on Servo Amp and cabling between Azimuth Encoder and TGP. On SUB BD there are not any
components for DAS TRIG, but just connect from CN5 to CN2.

(4) If you found problem in (2) or (3), try to reset OGP by pushing RESET switch on TGP and check OGP
is corrected reset. After reset correctly, OGP shoud go to IDLE status, which is DS6 on OGP blinks.
If OGP is not reset, DAS TRIG signal line between TGP and OGP has the problem. Between them,
there are cable between TGP and Signal Brush board, Slip Ring, Signal CONN board and cable be-
tween Signal CONN and OGP. In this case, it is suggested to change Signal CONN board tentatively
at first because there is another one on backside of Slip Ring, which is exactly the same and not used.

6-2-3 DAS Data Troubleshooting


For DAS Data trouble shooting, LED indication of each components are beneficial. it is recommended that to
confirm data path on rotating side using stationary scan at first. Proceed rotation scan as next step to confirm
data path on Slip Ring. Following is the LED status to help you identify whether DAS Data is coming or not. These
status is based on Off Line Scan with Rotor Off, DAS Data as Normal mode.

LED of RF RCV is not based on DAS Data but based on carrier wave. So RF Output LED does not change even
in the case DAS Data is not available. But when carrier wave is sent correctly, DAS Data can be sent correctly
in most of the case through Slip Ring because of error correction mechanism between DTRF and DASIFN.

6-2-4 Data Path Troubleshooting under Intermittent Failure


In case DAS data itself is coming to OC with errors below, this means intermittent failure occurs during transferring
raw data.

(1) ‘Corrected View Number of BADRAW’ which means bad views were found but it was successfully cor-
rected during reconstruction process.

(2) ‘Uncorrected View Number of BADRAW’ which means bad views were found and it cannot be correct.
Image was not displayed as the result.

To identify the failure under this situation, data encoding/decoding theory is useful. Next page shows the summery
of data format and what kind of information is appeared on LED or View End Mark. Please refer to DASIFN Section
on Advanced Theory Of Operation for detail.

In case you can find the bit errors constantly on specific position like below, failure should be on parallel data line.
Example below indicates 3rd bit in one set of 16 bits is always zero

0000 1111 0222 3333 4444 5555 4666 7777 8888 9999 8aaa

Parallel data line failure occurs on CIF, DTRF, DASIFN, DBPCI, cabling between CIF and DTRF or between DASIFN
and DBPCI. It may happen most possibly on DBPCI because there are most complex circuit to handle parallel signal.

6-4 DICOM FILMING OR NETWORK TRANSFER IS SLOW (NETWORK TIPS)


There are many cases of DICOM Camera slow filming and this section discusses one of the root cause and counter-
measure. This method is sometimes useful for other network troubleshooting. This occurs O2 don’t always Auto–Ne-
gotiation correctly with some Network Switches, causing high data error rates and retries. As an example, it is re-
ported that Nortel Switch Hub has this type of trouble.

As a solution for this type of trouble, the cancel the Auto–Negotiation function and set the Ethernet mode manually.
The following procedure is to set the manual Ethernet mode setting.

Note
Consult to site’s network engineer what type of Ethernet link speed and duplex mode is recom-
mended before proceed.

1. Power on the system and press “Stop for maintenance” button to enter maintenance menu.
(or if the system is already started, execute Application Shutdown and press “ESC” key twice when “OK” mes-
sage is displayed)

2. Click on Command.

3. Type the following command

> setenv ec0mode xxxx

xxxx is the mode parameter for link speed and duplex mode as shown:

– 100f –> 100Base–T/Full Duplex

– 100h –> 100Base–T/Half Duplex

– 10f –> 10Base–T/Full Duplex

– 10h –> 10Base–T/Half Duplex

4. Close the command screen and restart the system.

SECTION 7 – RING VALUE MEASUREMENT

CT HiSpeed Series has the program which calculates named “Ring Value”. It takes from 0 to positive number (0 is
best). It will become the reference number for measurement of Image quality.
This section discusses the procedure how to measure the Ring Value.

For example of usage, if customer has a problem of patient image quality, check the Active Mean DAS count using
GSA, then according to the DAS Count, select the scan technique and measure the Ring Value.

1. Perform the phantom scanning with the following Scan Technique Table. Memorize the Exam number.

Common Configuration:
Large (42cm.) Phantom set to Scan center. 2i mode scan.
Recon FOV is 50cm.

Active Mean DAS KV TH mA Scan Time Measured Value Reference Value

0 ∼ 500 120 3 100 1 < 3.988
500 ∼ 1000 120 3 130 1.5 < 3.543
1000 ∼ 1500 120 5 130 2 < 1.497
1500 ∼ 2000 120 5 150 2 < 0.762
2000 ∼ 120 5 200 2 < 0.504

2. Go to Service Desktop and open shell.

3. Type “phantomAnalysis” on the shell prompt, then program runs.

4. Press “Select Image” button to select the scanned image. See Illustration (next page).

5. Enter the phantom size as 42cm. See Illustration (next page).

6. Then press RV button. See Illustration (next page).

during this internal transfer.
Power This light indicates that the DASM–VDB is powered up. If this light does not
illuminate at power–up, you should first check the power cable connections.
CPU This light indicates that the DASM CPU is active and operating properly. It
flashes continuously (blinks on an off) following power–up.

Powering On
The following sequence occurs in the LED’s when the power switch is turned on:

1. The Power LED comes on.

2. The octal SCSI ID flashes briefly. The Least Significant Bit is next to the Power LED. Note that if the SCSI ID
is zero, no LEDs flash.

3. The three LEDs which represent an octal value flash once and go out.

4. Once the power–up sequence completes, the DASM CPU LED (second light from left) blinks regularly, indicating
that the CPU is active and functioning normally.

Start Up Sequence
When the DASM–VDB interface module is powering up, it performs start–up diagnostics and other related actions.

At power–up, the DASM unit performs the following tests:

D EPROM checksum test

D MFP 68901 access test (the Multi Function Peripheral chip controls the serial port, timing, and I/O)

D SCSI register access test

D Static RAM test

D Dynamic RAM test

D DMA test

When the DASM CPU LED blinks continuously at about two flashes per second, the initialization sequence is com-
plete, and the continuous self–test is in progress. The self–test runs until a SCSI command (a write to block 0 on the
DASM) is sent by the host. This test signals an error condition by blinking the CPU, SCSI, and Personal Module Inter-
face LEDs in tandem, continuously.

Using LEDs 1, 2, and 4 (CPU, SCSI, Personal Module Interface LEDs), a binary code signals any of the conditions
listed in Table 1–8. The Power LED is not used to report diagnostic conditions.
The three LEDs permit a combined total of only seven error codes. To overcome this limitation, the codes are defined
as a series of one or more patterns. Each pattern begins with all LEDs flashing briefly, to indicate the start of the num-
ber sequence that follows.
For example, to display error code 12 (Failed SCSI Interface Test), the CPU LED displays the first digit (1), stopping
briefly before the SCSI LED displays the second digit (2), as shown in Illustration 1–5.
The display of each digit lasts approximately four times the duration of the initial binary “7” (that if, the flash of all LEDs).
The patter then repeats. Only the significant digits for each error condition are listed in Table 1–8.

Note:
The first error stops the start–up sequence immediately.

Start Up Sequence

Start Up Sequence
When the DASM–LCAM interface module is powering up, it performs start–up diagnostics and other related actions.

At power–up, the DASM unit performs the following tests:

D EPROM checksum test

D MFP 68901 access test (the Multi Function Peripheral chip controls the serial port, timing, and I/O)

D SCSI register access test

D Static RAM test

D Dynamic RAM test

D DMA test

When the DASM CPU LED blinks continuously at about two flashes per second, the initialization sequence is com-
plete, and the continuous self–test is in progress. The self–test runs until a SCSI command (a write to block 0 on the
DASM) is sent by the host. This test signals an error condition by blinking the CPU, SCSI, and Personal Module Inter-
face LEDs in tandem, continuously.

1-3-3-3 Self–Test Options


Once the start–up sequence is complete, the resident software reads the state of the DIP switch labeled SW1 on the
DASM II–VDB board to determine whether further tests are enabled. To access SW1 you must first remove the top
cover. Upon locating SW1 you will notice the numbers 0, 1, and 2 silk screened on the printed circuit board. The way
Self–Test executes is determined by the setting shown below:

Switch Position Continuous Serial Loop– Single Pass Single Pass w/ Debug Mode
Mode back Memory
0 Closed Closed Open Open Open
1 Closed Open Closed Closed Open
2 Closed Closed Closed Open Open

D Continuous Mode:
Is the default setting. After executing the start–up diagnostic, the resident software will continuously run
the VDB self–test. Self–test will continue until the first SCSI command is received by the DASM.

D Serial Loop Test:


In this mode the VDB tests the RS422 Driver and Receiver. Prior to executing this, a special loop–back
connector on the front panel of the VDB, without the loop–back connector the test will fail.

The loop–back connector is made by simply adding two wires to a 25–pin Male ‘D’ connector: (pin 8 to
pin 9) and (pin 21 to pin 22).

D Single Pass:
The start–up diagnostics execute once, as described in 1-3-3-2 Start–up Sequence. Please be aware
that when position 0 is open error and other messages encountered during start–up diagnostics are di-
rected to the serial port. Otherwise the errors are encoded on the LEDs.

D Single Pass w/Memory:


Is controlled by Bit 2. When open the DASM exercises the entire DRAM during the start–up diagnostics.
The Single Pass w/Memory test can take several minutes to complete, this is why it is normally disabled.

D Debug Mode:
When position 1 is open the program jumps to the I/O Monitor when a diagnostic error occurs. The I/O
Monitor gives the basic tools to debug the hardware. Opening positions 0 and 2 allows the technician
access to the start–up diagnostic suite via the serial port.

1-3-3-5 VDB Error Codes


The following sequence is used to signal an error during the VDB portion of the Self–test.

First, all three LEDs blink together for the duration of a single pass. This requires approximately 10–15 seconds.
Then the specific error code blinks twice before the next pass begins, with all three LEDs blinking together as before.

The bit pattern of the error codes appears as a series of LEDs being turned on and off. The low order bit is first.

When two LEDs blink together, the bit value is 1.


When only one LED blinks, the bit value is 0.

To see an example of an error code displayed in this way, do the following:

D Remove the loop–back connector from the front panel of the DASM II–VDB.

D SW 1 position 0 is closed.

D SW 1 position 1 is open.

D Now cycle the AC power on the DASM

D When the first pass of the DASM self–test has completed, the LED display begins. The expected error
is 5 (RS–422 port fail), and the LED sequence is:
Least significant first:
bit 0 = 2 LEDs on = 1 Value 1
bit 1 = 1 LED on = 0
bit 2 = 2 LEDs on = 1 Value 4
bit 3 = 1 LED on =0

1-3-4-5 LCAM Error Codes


The following sequence is used to signal an error during the LCAM portion of the Self–test.

First, all three LEDs blink together for the duration of a single pass. This requires approximately 10–15 seconds.
Then the specific error code blinks twice before the next pass begins, with all three LEDs blinking together as before.

The bit pattern of the error codes appears as a series of LEDs being turned on and off. The low order bit is first.

When two LEDs blink together, the bit value is 1.


When only one LED blinks, the bit value is 0.

The Self–test runs in continuous mode when SW 1 position 0 is “open”. A single failure will cause a error code to flash
repreatedly on the LEDs. Although, other errors may occur during testing only the first one is displayed forever.

First all LEDs will blink together several times indicates a problem. Next, the error code is displayed serially, twice
in the two leftmost LEDs.

The pattern is binary and takes 4 blinks for the complete code. When the two LEDs blink together, the bit value is
1, when only blinks the bit is 0. The bit order is low to high.

Record the blink pattern in the number of LEDs blinking, 1 or 2.

Record them RIGHT to LEFT, to make them easier to interpret.

1 2 1 2 Subtract 1 from each digit to obtain the bit value.

SECTION 2 – TEST PROGRAMS

2-1 SYSTEM POWER–UP SEQUENCE


The power–ON test program is used for OC self–diagnostics during the Power up sequence.

This test program has two categories; Power On Test and Off–line Test (Detailed Power On test).
The Off–line test includes more detailed tests than power–on Test, and takes longer to run.
The power–on Test is normally selected automatically when powering ON the system. The Off–line test can be used
by the field engineer to perform a more detailed analysis in the event of an error occurring on the system.

The power–on test is described in Section 2-2.

Even if errors occur during the power–on test, the test continues to be executed until it finishes, and the test log window
appears. You can confirm the problem by reviewing test log, then select either of the following:

D [H/W diag] :
Go to [H/W diag Main Menu] for OFF–LINE test

Note
For more detail, refer to 2-3 Off–line Test.

D [Startup] :
The error is skipped and the power–on sequence proceeds so that the start–up screen will be shown on
the CRT monitor.

Note
When the start–up screen does NOT appear even if using the [Startup] command, the system must
be shutdown using [shutdown] button in the desktop menu.

D [Shutdown] :
The system runs the shutdown sequence, resulting in the system powered OFF automatically.

2–1 OPERATOR CONSOLE


CT HISPEED SERIES
PROPRIETARY TO GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY ADVANCED DIAGNOSTICS
REV 11 2202119

2-2 POWER–ON TEST


The power–on test is automatically executed after the operating system becomes ready and before the system soft-
ware starts.
If you want to manually start the power–on Test, execute ‘Application Shutdown’ from the System Tools menu, and
execute the following command in the Unix shell.

> poweron

The following tests are performed during the power–on test.

D hinv Test:
Checks that the devices which are listed in the reference file created during the Reconfig procedure are
identified as correctly installed on the operator console.

D SCSI Test:
Performs ‘inquiry’ and ‘self–test’ on each SCSI device. A read and write test on the media is not performed.
The tested devices are those which were listed during the Reconfig procedure.

D NPR Test:
Performs an access test on memory devices installed on the NPR (NP Recon Engine) boards. As for
NPRS boards, only the NPRS1 board is tested. Perform the off–line test ( described in Section 2-3) to test
other NPRS boards.

D DBPCI Test:
Performs an access test on the DAS Buffer Memory and registers.

CT HISPEED SERIES
PROPRIETARY TO GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY ADVANCED DIAGNOSTICS
REV 11 2202119

2-3 OFF–LINE TEST

NOTICE
When the interactive test or off–line test is completed, the system MUST be powered OFF
([Exit] –> [OK]) to avoid accidental X–ray Exposure. That is because system reboot can NOT
activate the system reset line.

2-3-1 General
This is a test to verify that access to memory/register of NPR or DBPCI boards is performed with no error. In off–line
mode, the following two modes exists.

D Stop mode:
The test will stop when error occurs.

D Continue mode:
The test will proceed without stop when error occurs. The error occurred can be checked by viewing error
log after test. However, there is a much possibility that Memory/Register have been overwritten, so that
you can NOT confirm which the error occurred in read phase or in write phase.

Each mode above contains the following three test methods. (You can edit them whenever you want.)

– Normal:
All of the test items can be run.
It takes approx. 60 minutes for the longest time. (This depends on hardware configuration.)

– Quick:
A part of the test items can be run. It takes shorter than “Normal” to complete.
It takes approx. 50 minutes for the longest time. (This depends on hardware configuration.)

– Manual:
The test items can be manually selected to run the tests for the specific item to be desired.
The default setting is the same one as “Normal”.

NOTICE
Do not use the manual test until you perfectly understand each test items in the manual test.
Some memories or registers contain access prohibitive areas. If you change this area acci-
dentally, the system hung–up often occurred.

3-2 DIAGNOSTIC TESTS


There are three types of software diagnostics tests provided on the O2 workstation. Each is described below:

D Power–On Tests

D IDE Tests

Power–On Test
These run automatically on the major hardware components of the workstation each time it is turned on. If the tests
find a faulty part, the LED on the front of the system will be red and there will probably be an error message. See also
Problem Diagnosis (Section 3-1).

IDE Tests
The Interactive Diagnostic Environment (IDE) tests are more comprehensive than the Confidence Tests, and take
longer (as long as 30–45 minutes) to run. See Integrated Diagnostic Environment (IDE) Tests on the SBC (O2) (Sec-
tion 3-5).

3-3 RECOVERING FROM SYSTEM CRASH


In most cases, your system will recover from a system crash automatically if you reboot the system.
If, however, you have lost data on your system disk, and you cannot communicate with your system using the mouse
or keyboard, or over the network, follow these instructions. The instructions assume you have a backup tape of your
system that has been made using the System Manager backup tool, or with the /usr/sbin/Backup script. You also need
a CD with your current IRIX operating system level. If you are recovering data from a tape on a remote tape device,
you need to know the hostname, tape device name, and IP address of the remote system.

1. Use a pen tip or an unwound paper clip to press the RESET button located on the front panel (Illustration 3–3).

Recovery Menu appears (Illustration 3–5).

Illustration 3–5 System Recovery Menu

4. If you have a CD–ROM drive connected to your system and the IRIX CD, click LOCAL CD–ROM. Then click
ACCEPT to start. Insert the CD when prompted. The system takes five minutes or more to copy the information.
If you don -
MOTE DIRECTORY.

5. When a notifier appears asking you for the remote hostname, type the system’s name, a colon (:), and the full
pathname of the CD–ROM drive, followed by /dist. For example, to access a CD–ROM drive. On the system
mars, you would type: mars:/CDROM/dist
After everything is copied from the CD to the system disk, you can restore your data from a recent full backup
tape. The backup must be one that has been made using the System Manager backup tool, or with the /usr/sbin/
Backup script.
Tip: If you need to check something on your system during the restore process, you can get a
shell prompt by typing sh at most question prompts.

6. If you have a local tape device, you see this message:

Restore will be from <tapename> OK? ([Y]es, [N]o): [Y]

tapename is the name of the local tape device.

Remote or local restore ([r]emote, [l]ocal):

– If you answer ‘remote,’ you have chosen to restore from the network, and you must know the hostname, tape
device name, and IP address of the remote system. You also need to know the IP address of your system. The
IP address, such as 192.0.2.1, always has four components separated by periods.
– If you answer ‘local,’ you have chosen a tape device that is connected to your system, and you are prompted
to enter the name of the tape device.

8. When you see the following message, remove the CD–ROM, insert your most recent full backup tape, then press
ENTER.

Insert the first backup tape in the drive, then press <Enter>,
[q]uit (from recovery), [r]estart:

There is a pause while the program retrieves several files from the tape describing the system state at the time
the backup was made. Then you see this message:

Erase /x filesystem and make new one (y,n)? [n]

It prompts you for every file system that was known at the time of the backup. Read the following to decide wheth-
er to answer y or n.
– If you answer n for no, the system tries to salvage as many files as possible. Then it uses your backup tape
to replace the files it could not salvage. Usually you should answer no, especially if your backup tape is not very
recent. If the file systems were badly damaged, or the backup was from a different level operating system, you
may need to answer yes.
– – If you answer y for yes, the system erases the file system and copies everything from your backup tape to
the disk. The system loses any information on that file system that you created between now and when you made
your backup tape.

9. You see this message:

Starting recovery from tape.

After two or three minutes, the names of the files that the system is copying to the disk start scrolling. When the
recovery is complete, you see this message:

Recovery complete, restarting system.

Note
If your backup tapes were old, or you were changing your operating system level, you should reinstall
the operating system from the IRIX CD that came with your system after system recovery is com-
plete. When you see the Startup System notifier, press ESC, or click STOP FOR MAINTENANCE.
Then click Install System Software.

3-4 DISABLING THE SYSTEM MAINTENANCE PASSWORD


If you are in the System Maintenance menu, and you choose INSTALL SYSTEM SOFTWARE, RUN DIAGNOSTICS,
RECOVER SYSTEM, or ENTER COMMAND MONITOR, you may be prompted for a password.

If you do not know the password, you can disable it by installing a jumper (a small cap that connects two pins) on the
system board inside the workstation. The system board is located in the system module. To install the jumper, you
must first remove the system module and the PCI tray. Follow these steps:

1. Turn off the workstation by pressing the power button on the front.

2. Remove the system module by releasing the lever on the extreme left as you face the rear of the workstation
and sliding the module out. See Section 1–6 System Module, of OC Tabl of the Component Replacement manual.

3. Release and remove the PCI tray. See Section 1–8 PCI Tray, of OC Tabl of the Component Replacement manual.

NOTICE
Before touching any of the components, attach the wrist strap to your wrist and to a metal
part of the chassis.

4. Remove the jumper from the system board in the location shown in Illustration 3–6.

You must remove the jumper if you choose to reset the PROM password.

3-5 INTEGRATED DIAGNOSTIC ENVIRONMENT (IDE) TESTS ON THE SBC (O2)


The IDE tests on the O2 are stand alone tests that must be run at the boot PROM level.

To run the O2 IDE tests from the OC, the user must first shut down applications. Next, cu into the SBC by opening
a UNIX shell and typing: cu sbc. Once a serial connection has been established, the O2 must be shut down and re–
started. Do this by logging into the SBC as root and typing the ‘halt’ command. Press ENTER when prompted to restart
the SBC. When the system begins start–up, a message appears giving the user the option of performing system main-
tenance. Press ESC at this prompt to get to the System Maintenance Menu. Choose Option 3, Run Diagnostics.
A hardware probe will be conducted and a default set of test scripts will be run automatically. This set takes approxi-
mately 10 minutes to execute. Pass and failure information is updated to the screen.

When you run the tests, the following error message may appear. However, ignore this message.

Illustration 4–1 shows a flowchart for troubleshooting the recon system.

Following the flowchart, if you find that an NPRS board seems to be malfunctioning, exchange the board with some
other NPRS board which is installed on another slot. And then, repeat the test, and you may be able to judge more
correctly whether the exchanged board is defective or not. In this case, if the exchanged board seems to be operating
normally, or an other board seems to be malfunctioning, the NPRM board might be defective.

How to Identify Defective NPRS – Phase 1


Run the NPR–Internal Test (Programs 1 to 57) to identify a defective NPRS board.

Several tests in NPR–internal test performs a test for each DSP (Digital Signal Processor–two DSPs are equipped
on one NPRS board) and indicates the result of each test by ‘PASS’ or ‘ERROR’. Therefore, by reading when ‘ERROR’
appears, a defective NPRS board can be identified. See Illustration 4–4.

In the test result example shown in Illustration 4–4, in Program 17, all the (four) tests passed. However, in Program
18, the fourth test failed (as shown by an arrow); this indicates that the #2 NPRS board is defective, since one NPRS
board has two DSPs, and a test is executed on each DSP. (This test example is for a recon system where two NPRS
boards are installed.)

If defective NPRS board can not be identified using this method, to the Phase 2 method discribed in next page.

and 2 DSPs per NPRS)
The test program starts from this DSP. In this
example, the test starts from #1 DSP.
(#1 DSP and #2 DSP are on #1 NPRS, and
#3 DSP and #4 DSP are on #2 NPRS.)

For example, by setting ‘Start Slv No’ to 3, and setting ‘Slv Count’ to 2, the program only tests the two DSPs on the
#2 NPRS board; the program does not test the #1 NPRS. Thus, by changing the ‘Start Slv No’ and ‘Slv Count’, a defec-
tive NPRS board can be identified.

2-1-1 Gantry Processor

RAM Check
1. The gantry processor (U87) performs read/write checks of its internal RAM, the external RAM (U92), and the
dual port RAM (U77).

2. If a RAM check error occurs, the processor will stay in a hang up state, with the ERRG, LPG, RQG LED’s lighting
on the TGP board.

If no error occurs, the processor proceeds to the following step.

ROM Check
3. The processor performs a data sum check on addresses 0 ∼ BFFF of the external ROM (U112).

4. If a ROM check error occurs, the processor will stay in a hang up state, with the ERRG, LPG, RQG LED’s lighting.

If no error occurs, the LPG LED blinks, and the processor proceeds to the following step.

Gantry Rotation Check and Azimuth Counter Initialization


5. The gantry processor starts rotating the gantry to check that the operation can be normally performed.

a. If the SYS–OFF–MNL service switch (SW1) on the TGP board is set to OFF, the system waits until the switch
is set to SYS or MNL, with the RQG and LPG LED’s alternately blinking.

b. If power is not supplied to the servo amplifier, the rotation check is terminated, with the ERRG LED lighting.

If any other abnormal conditions/operations are found, the rotation check is terminated.

To start the rotation check anew, resolve the problems, and power on or reset the TGP board.

6. The gantry rotates at 15 sec/Rev, and the processor initializes the gantry azimuth counter with the GPLS1 signal.

a. If the initialization of the counter is not performed within 25 sec, the rotation is terminated, with the ERRG LED
lighting.

2-1-2 Table Processor

RAM Check
1. The table processor (U42) performs read/write checks of its internal RAM, the external RAM (U64), and the dual
port RAM (U48).

2. If a RAM check error occurs, the processor will stay in a hang up state, with the ERRT, LPT, RQT, MNT LED’s
lighting on the TGP board.

If no error occurs, the processor proceeds to the following step.

ROM Check
3. The processor performs a data sum check on addresses 0 ∼ DFFF of the external ROM (U68).

4. If a ROM check error occurs, the processor will stay in a hang up state, with the ERRT, RQT, MNT LED’s lighting.

If no error occurs, the LPT LED blinks, and the processor proceeds to the following step.

Gantry Display and Switch LED Check


5. The processor sequentially displays test characters (numbers) on the gantry display, and at the same time, se-
quentially lights gantry panel switch LED’s.
Refer to the Rotational Operation section of Gantry, of the Functional Check / Adjustment manual.

Gantry Tilt and Table Up/down Relay Check


The gantry tilt or table up/down operation is performed by a pump/valve mechanism which is powered by AC 115 V.
This power is conveyed through two relays connected in series on SUB BD. Refer to Illustration 2–1. With these
connections, if one relay of the two failed (that is, always closed), the power flow can be cut off by the other relay.
This check verifies these relay operations.

6. The processor closes one relay which is controlled by the enable lines, and verifies that the gantry tilt or table
up/down does not take place.

If the operation takes place, the other relay (direct) is considered to be failed (closed), since any key on the gantry
switch panel is not pressed while the relay (enable) is activated; and an error message is displayed on the opera-
tor console (OC).

7. An LED blinks on the gantry switch panel, and then press the key with the LED blinking.

If the corresponding operation takes place, the other relay (enable) is considered to be failed (closed), since the
processor does not activate the relay (enable) while the key is pressed; and an error message is displayed on
the OC.

4-1 ERROR MESSAGE (continued)

Error Class
The errors detected by the TGP, OGP, or CIF board are either classified as Error Class, or Information Class, accord-
ing to below:

D Error:
If an error of this ‘Error’ class occurs during a scan, the scan is aborted, and an error message is displayed
on the OC monitor.

D Information (written as ‘Infor.’ in Table 4–1 ∼ 4–53):


If an error of this ‘Information’ class occurs during a scan, the scan will be continued, and an error message
is not displayed on the OC monitor.

Communication via Slip Rings (RS422)


The scan processor on the OGP board communicates with the management processor on the TGP board via slip
rings.
Normally, when one of the two processors receives communication data from the other processor, the receiving proc-
essor checks a checksum data, and sends back an ACK message to the sender, if the data is OK; otherwise, sends
back a NACK message. When the sender receives this NACK message, it resends the data. If this repeats three
times (three NACK’s), the communication is regarded as an error. If the receiver does not send ACK nor NACK within
a specified time, this also is regarded as an error communication.

SECTION 2 – ERRORS, DIAGNOSTICS &


TROUBLESHOOTING (NP, NP+, NP+ Twin)

Note
This section is used for NP, NP+, and NP+ Twin systems. However, for the p5.4 or later JEDI soft-
ware, use Section 4 (ERRORS, DIAGNOSTICS & TROUBLESHOOTING (for p5.4 or later JEDI
Software)).
For NP++ and NP++ Twin systems, use Section 3 (ERRORS, DIAGNOSTICS & TROUBLESHOOT-
ING (NP++, NP++ Twin)).

2-1 INTRODUCTION
This diagnostics section is to introduce the JEDI generator with the following information:
Power–On diagnostics LED indication.
List all the potential error codes that can be issued by JEDI Generator.
Provide error code explanation, potential cause and recommended action.
List of diagnostics aids and explanation of diagnostics.

2-2 POWER ON DIAGNOSTICS


Refer to theory of operation for power–on sequence. This paragraph in this section is to provide
meaning of boards’ LED status. The LED display status is offering useful information at a glance to
proceed to error code based troubleshooting. Whenever in doubt, a simple step is to watch the LED
status display on the kV control board, than the Rotation and Heater.

kV control LED status:


– During Power On Diagnostics : kV control board

S0..................S7

   

S0.........................S7
⊗⊗⊗⊗⊗⊗⊗

The 8 LED’s (S0...S7) are lit successively in both directions (as indicated by the arrows): the power up
diagnostics are completed, kV control board is up and running.

⊗⊗⊗⊗k ⊗k ⊗

The simplified error code is displayed on the Leds. They blink; when the error is cleared ( by a return
to the standby mode for example ), the 8 LEDs are lit successively.

Heater board LED status: (See LED Description)


After the power on diagnostics, heater board LEDs DS1 and DS2 are lit successively. Any different
status correspond to an abnormal situation. An error code is logged. Refer to error code description.
Rotation board LED status: (See LED Description)
After the power on diagnostics, rotation board LED DS5 is blinking. Any different status correspond to
an abnormal situation. An error code is logged. Refer to error code description.

2-4 ERROR REPORTING


Np system only gets the simplified error code from the Jedi generator.
The Np system errorlog adds to the simplified error code the following information :
D error message (refer to the Np system documentation)
D system phase : state of the system when the error occurred. Take care, the system state may be
different to the generator phase (refer to the Np system documentation)
D system time : date and time when the error occurred. Take care, the system time may be different
to the generator time
Whenever a generator error is logged in the system errorlog file and displayed on the operator
console, the Jedi errorlog upload functionality is available to get more detailed information about the
error.
This function must be performed from the operator console.
The simplified error code must be used to find the Jedi error code in the Jedi errorlog file.
Having these two information, look at the Jedi trouble shooting table to find the FRU to replace.
Error codes can also be read by connecting the laptop

The table below provides guidelines to troubleshoot Generator problems based on error code.
For each code, there is :
– Associated message and additional explanation related to the error occurrence.
– List potential cause, in the order of expected probability.
– Recommended action, with, in some cases, link to some more information as indicated where
cases apply, such as to run some specific diagnostics.
Codes are sorted by ascending order both for simplified code and error code.
Refer to the theory of operation for error code structure.
Information about associated data structure is located at the end of each error code subset whenever
it applies.

2-6 WARNING ERRORS


Warning errors are the result of automated and regular background monitoring for either software
events or voltages threshold overtaking.
Those errors are merely for engineering usage and do not indicate any hardware error failure.
However, as they are logged into the Generator Err_log file, just as the previous list of error, they are
listed here to help error sorting out.
Should too many of them are seen when viewing error log, it is advised to report them via CQA, since
the equipment is still operating.

2-12 NO LOAD HV DIAGNOSTICS


Purpose :
The purpose of this test is to verify that the HV power inverter and HV tank are working properly. The exposure is
taken as in application mode except that no filament drive nor anode rotation is running. Verification is made that
the inverter currents are correctly set and that kV regulation is operating properly. As no filament drive is applied,
no XRays are generated. This test also allow to separate generator from HV cable or x–ray tube problem by
running it with or without the HV cables plugged on the HV tank.
Pre–requisites :
D generator input line in an acceptable range ( 380V–10% to 480V+10% for 3–phase AC input )
D kV control board alive and running : S0–S7 Leds are lit successively or a combination of them blink
D inverter gate_cmd board DC supply present : DS300 neon is lit
D inverter dual snubber board DC supply present : DS1 neon is lit
D Inverter gate command diagnostic passed without failure
D Inverter in short circuit diagnostic passed without failure
D HV Receptacles must be filled with oil if HV cables are removed.
Test type : Manual operation is required.
Sequence :
1. Power on the generator
2. Push the TGP board reset switch, or OGP board reset switch.
3. Start the diagnostic and verify :
– error reported on the operator console
– inverter gate_cmd board Leds DS101, DS 102, DS201, DS202 are lit : IGBTs gate drive supply
is working properly
4. Select kV (default = 80) and exp.time (default = 1s).
5. Press the exposure switch
6. During the “exposure”, verify :
– error reported on the operator console
7. Release the exposure switch
8. Power off the generator

3-4 ERROR REPORTING

3-4-1 NP Generator Error Reporting


Np system only gets the simplified error code from the Jedi Generator.
The Np system errorlog adds to the simplified error code the following information:

D error message (refer to the Np system documentation)

D system phase : state of the system when the error occurred. Take care, the system state is different of
the Generator phase (refer to the Np system documentation)

D system time : date and time when the error occurred. Take care, the system time is different of the Genera-
tor time

Whenever a Generator error is logged in the system errorlog file and displayed on the operator console, the Jedi error-
log upload functionality is available to get more detailed information about the error.
This function must be performed from the operator console.
The simplified error code must be used to find the Jedi error code in the Jedi errorlog file.
Having these two information, look at the Jedi trouble–shooting table to find the FRU to replace.

Error codes can also be read by connecting the service laptop.

3-4-2 Tiger Generator Error Reporting (not for NP++ and Ebisu systems)
Tiger console only displays the simplified error code from the Jedi Generator.

Whenever a Generator error is displayed on the operator console, the Jedi errorlog upload functionality is available
to get more detailed information about the error.
This function must be performed from the service laptop.
The simplified error code must be used to find the Jedi error code in the Jedi errorlog file.
Having these two information, look at the Jedi trouble shooting table to find the FRU to replace.

* Note to the error 30 0324H:


The generator sends only one message of error for all the spits (0324H) at the end of the exposure.
During the same exposure we may have different kind of spits.
In the data of this error we can distinguish between the different spits:
1: Spit in anode side
2: Spit in cathode side
4: Spit in both sides
8: kV regulation error.

For a exposure with anode and both sides spit, the data will be “5”.

These data can be displayed in the OC in decimal or in hexadecimal base.

3-6 WARNING ERRORS


Warning errors are the result of automated and regular background monitoring for either software events or voltages
threshold overtaking.
Those errors are merely for engineering usage and do not indicate any hardware error failure.

However, as they are logged into the Generator Err_log file, just as the previous list of error, they are listed here to
help error sorting out.

Should too many of them are seen when viewing error log, it is advised to report them via CQA, since the equipment
is still operating.

4-4 ERROR REPORTING

4-4-1 NP Generator Error Reporting


Np system only gets the simplified error code from the Jedi Generator.
The Np system errorlog adds to the simplified error code the following information:

D error message (refer to the Np system documentation)

D system phase : state of the system when the error occurred. Take care, the system state is different of
the Generator phase (refer to the Np system documentation)

D system time : date and time when the error occurred. Take care, the system time is different of the Genera-
tor time

Whenever a Generator error is logged in the system errorlog file and displayed on the operator console, the Jedi error-
log upload functionality is available to get more detailed information about the error.
This function must be performed from the operator console.
The simplified error code must be used to find the Jedi error code in the Jedi errorlog file.
Having these two information, look at the Jedi trouble–shooting table to find the FRU to replace.

Error codes can also be read by connecting the service laptop.

4-4-2 Tiger Generator Error Reporting (not for NP++ and Twin systems)
Tiger console only displays the simplified error code from the Jedi Generator.

Whenever a Generator error is displayed on the operator console, the Jedi errorlog upload functionality is available
to get more detailed information about the error.
This function must be performed from the service laptop.
The simplified error code must be used to find the Jedi error code in the Jedi errorlog file.
Having these two information, look at the Jedi trouble shooting table to find the FRU to replace.

4-5-1 Detailed Error Description & Troubleshooting Guide


The first part details errors, while the warning errors are listed in a second part of this chapter.

The table below provides guidelines to troubleshoot Generator problems based on error code.
For each code, there is:

–Associated message and additional explanation related to the error occurrence.


–List potential cause, in the order of expected probability.
–Recommended action, with, in some cases, link to some more information as indicated where cases apply, such
as to run some specific diagnostics.

Codes are sorted by ascending order both for simplified code and error code.
Refer to the theory of operation for error code structure.
Information about associated data structure is located at the end of each error code subset whenever it applies.

Whenever wiring, cabling, LED check is mentioned in the recommended actions, refer to the central listing.

* Note to the error 30 0324H:


The generator sends only one message of error for all the spits (0324H) at the end of the exposure.
During the same exposure we may have different kind of spits.
In the data of this error we can distinguish between the different spits:
1: Spit in anode side
2: Spit in cathode side
4: Spit in both sides
8: kV regulation error.

For a exposure with anode and both sides spit, the data will be “5”.

These data can be displayed in the OC in decimal or in hexadecimal base.

4-6 WARNING ERRORS


Warning errors are the result of automated and regular background monitoring for either software events or voltages
threshold overtaking.
Those errors are merely for engineering usage and do not indicate any hardware error failure.

However, as they are logged into the Generator Err_log file, just as the previous list of error, they are listed here to
help error sorting out.

Should too many of them are seen when viewing error log, it is advised to report them via CQA, since the equipment
is still operating.
