Lift up the tabletop (it will be held in place by the gas spring) and remove the cover
panel (Fig. 63/Pos. 1). Set the software end positions to 240+/- 5 mm in each
direction. Adjust the limit switch (Fig. 64/Pos. 2) so that it switches off approx. 3 - 5
mm behind each end position. To do this, either the limit switch or the switch strike
place can be adjusted. Check the function over the entire movement path and
reinstall the cover panel.
3.11 Tabletop Transverse Safety Switch not configured
Move the Bucky to the foot end to the mechanical stop, move the system carriage
into the exposure position. Adjust the S12 switch (Fig. 66/Pos. 1) so that it positively
switches.
3.13 I.I. Carriage Movement Path Safety Switch

3.14 Table Up Movement Path Switch Strike Plate
Raise the table to max. 1225+/-10 mm position.
When the software limit is set, the top switch strike plate (Fig. 68 / Pos. 1) can be
adjusted so that the limit switch (Pos. 3) actuates approx. 2 - 5 mm behind the
maximum height.
3.15 Table Down Movement Path Switch Strike Plate
Lower the table to the min. 680+/-10 mm position.
When the software limit is set, the bottom switch strike plate (Fig. 68/ Pos. 2) can be
adjusted so that the limit switch actuates approx. 2 - 5 mm behind the minimum
height.
Tilt the tabletop into the -20° end position.
The top of the two switches is the limit switch and the floating switch (bronze) is also
the switch strike plate, respectively.
The floating switch (Fig. 69/Pos. 1) should actuate the microswitch approx. 2 mm
after the end position (Pos. 2).
3.17 +88° Tilt Movement Safety Switch
Tilt the tabletop into the +88° end position.
The top o the two switches is the limit switch for tilt movement and the floating switch
(bronze) is also the switch strike plate, respectively.
The floating switch (Fig. 69/Pos. 1) should actuate the microswitch (not shown in Fig.
69) approx. 2 mm after the end position.
3.18 Spindle Nut Safety Limit Switch
The safety nut (Fig. 70/Pos. 1) must be installed centered in the bottom half between
the two steel plates (Pos. 2+3).
The switch strike plate in the microswitch with the roller must be up against the safety
nut and actuated; when the safety nut moves up, the microswitch responds and the
switch circuit is interrupted.
Securely and audibly insert the table extension or the micturation seat into the
opening.
The corresponding microswitch is for sensing of the S17 table extension (Fig. 71/
Pos. 1) and S18 is for the micturation seat (Pos. 2). The switch strike plate must be
adjusted so that it is on the tip of the nib so that any play will trigger a positive
response of the S16 microswitch (Pos. 3).
3.20 Tabletop longitudinal Belt Tension
Belt tension should be determined as follows:
The spring balance should be placed centered between the belt return wheel (Fig. 72/Pos. 2)
and the belt tension roller (Pos. 3) to achieve a deflection of 1 cm when a force of 35 N is
applied. Adjustment can be made by means of the tension screw (Pos. 4) after loosening the
two mounting screws (Pos. 5+6).
3.21 Raise-Lower Tabletop Belt Tension
Belt tension should be determined as follows:
The spring balance should be placed centered between the drive wheel (on motor side) and
the belt wheel for the spindle (Fig. 73/Pos. 2) to achieve a deflection of 1 cm when a force of
80 N is applied. Adjustment can be made by means of the tension screw (Pos. 4) after
loosening the two mounting screws (Pos. 5+6).
Move the tabletop max. forward and take off the cover panel (Fig. 74/Pos. 1) after removing
the 5 mounting screws.

25 N is applied. Adjustment can be made by means of the tension screw (Pos. 4) after
loosening the 4 mounting screws (Pos. 5).
To establish a connection with the URO controller, a PC/laptop is required.
Equipment:⇒ PC or laptop with color display (black/white is also sufficient, but makes operation more
difficult)
⇒ 486 processor, 16 MB RAM
⇒ Windows 3.x Win 95 operating system (Windows NT can cause difficulties with the Com
interface)
⇒ Hard drive
⇒ Serial connection cable (9-pole, Sub-D connector to a 9-pole, Sub-D socket, connected
1 - 1), length > 1m.
⇒ Current version of the "hp-Service" software
b. Procedure

(5) Versioncheck
The service technician can now start the desired adjustment. The above-listed sequence
does not have to be followed when making the connection. However, it should be noted that
the cable connection may not be plugged in while power is switched on!
c. Setting Parameters
A critical and often-used routine is setting the table parameters to adapt speeds or limits.
Procedure:
Once the URO controller has been set to the service mode (see above), the PC software is
not switched to the monitor mode, but to the parameter mode after clicking on the
"Parameters" button. (We also refer you to the Online Help of the PC software, which can be
selected by pressing the F1 key).
A file window open with which the supplied adjustment file named "*.HPP" can be opened.
Using data from this file, a complete parameter table is described. Please enter your name.
Data can be viewed, changed or saved this way in the usual manner.
Changing the parameters in the URO controller is performed as follows:
⇒ Read out the URO with "Read CPU".
⇒ Save these data under a new name as xxx.HPP as a backup.
⇒ Change the parameters as desired.
⇒ Write them into the URO with "Write CPU".
⇒ Test the new parameters.
⇒ If ok, save these new parameters in the URO with "EEPROM"
d. Self Test
All boards in the controller, with the exception of the breaker board, have a software self test,
which is performed after switching on power. To the extent possible, this test can be viewed.
e. CPU Self Test
After switching on power, the CPU reads all inputs. This takes approx. 1 - 2 s. If this is
correct, the service LED does into the blink mode.
If this does not happen, there is a malfunction.
If a peripheral unit is not connected or the bus traffic is malfunctioning, this is signaled on the
display as an error code. If the display cannot be addressed, the error message can be read
on the service laptop.
If an error occurs in the footswitch or in the control unit, the URO can still be operated using
the other unit.
After switching on power, all segments in the tilt display and the large round LED’s are
tested individually. If this does not happen, there is a malfunction.
Seven-segment display: visible by a circular sequence of the active segments. All segments
must light up. If a segment does not go on, there is a malfunction.
LED’s: All three LED’s light up cyclically in the three colors: red, green and yellow. If one
color does not appear, there is a malfunction.
g. Footswitch Self Test
This test cannot be viewed. However, correct function is signaled via the bus.
h. Control Unit Self Test
After switching on power, all LED’s are individually tested by blinking, the multi-colored
LED’s also blink in the three colors. If this does not happen, there is a malfunction.
3.24 Startup
Adjusting the Axes
If a PC is not available, proceed as described below:
Switch the unit with the switch (Fig. 76/Pos. 1) into the service mode, the green LED (Pos. 2)
on the controller goes on and stays on.
Press the Store and Reset buttons on the control unit at the same time, the three memory
LED`s on the control unit blink green and the LED on the controller blinks very quickly.
Each axis can now be moved normally. Exception: the cassette can be moved slowly forward
and backward by pressing the Recall and Reset buttons.
To save a new software limit, Store must be pressed and held (M1 LED blinks red) and the
corresponding direction button for the desired movement must also be pressed.
If the controller has recognized this correctly, the M1 LED blinks red, and the position has
been accepted and the keys can be released again. The M1 LED then blinks green again.
To save a centered position, the Store button must again be pressed and held and then the
two buttons for the corresponding axis must either be pressed and held, or pressed in
sequence.
To move past an incorrectly set software limit, the ZOOM button must be held down and the
corresponding direction button must also be held. The software limit is now set to the
maximum AD value.
If an axis is completely adjusted, the new limits should be saved in the EEprom. To do this,
the Store and Reset buttons must be pressed at the same time. During the save routine
(approx. 5 sec) all three memory LED’s will blink red.
When the save routine is completed, the memory LED`s will again blink green.
Switch the unit into the service mode using the switch (Fig. 77/Pos. 1), the green LED (Pos.
2) on the controller will go on and stay on.
Simultaneously press the Store (Fig. 78/Pos. 54) and Reset (Pos. 56) buttons on the control
unit, the three memory LED`s (Pos. 51-53) on the control unit will blink green and the LED
on the control unit (Fig. 77/Pos. 2) will blink very rapidly.
Fig. 77 Fig. 78
The movement paths must be moved manually to the mechanical end stops using the
direction buttons (the collimator plate will not move any further because the motor has a slip
clutch).
Save the position that is established this way for each of the 6 end positions by holding the
Store button (Fig. 78/Pos. 54) (M1 LED (Pos. 52) blinks red) and pressing the
corresponding direction button for the movement at the same.
If the controller has correctly detected this position, the M1 LED (Pos. 52) goes on red. The
position has been accepted and buttons can be released again. The M1 LED (Pos. 52) then
blinks again green.
To move past an incorrectly set software limit, the Zoom (Pos. 54) must be pressed and
held and the corresponding direction button (Pos. 31, 32, 37, 35, 36, 38) must be pressed at
the same time. The software limit is now set to the maximum AD value and the axis can now
be moved to a new position and stored again by pressing the Store (Pos. 54) and directional
buttons (Pos. 31, 32, 37, 35, 36, 38) again.
To determine the tracking path of the motors, the collimator must be closed using the button
(Pos. 34) and auto tuning started. All three collimator motors will then be started
automatically 5 times and stopped again to save the tracking time that has been determined.
3.26 Setting the Collimator to the Cassette and I.I. Format
Cassette Format:
To adjust the collimator to the 4 possible film formats, the corresponding cassette must be
inserted.
Use the button (Fig. 78/Pos. 33) to switch on the collimator light field and center the cassette
template included in the shipment so it is centered on the tabletop.
With the light field switched on, move the collimator plates using the buttons (Fig. 78/Pos.
31, 32, 35, 37) horizontal open, horizontal closed, vertical open, vertical closed to the
position of the cassette template and save the position with the Store (Pos. 54) and Light
(Pos. 33) buttons.
Then as a control, make a radiographic exposure and, if needed, correct the collimator plate
adjustment.
Caution:
During exposure, radiation protective measures must be observed.
Perform this routine with all 4 cassettes.
A format that has been saved previously can be overwritten by repeating the save routine.
I.I. Format:
The unit can store 3 Zoom steps.
LED`s Z-N (Pos. 41) = I.I. size, LED`s Z-1 (Pos. 42) = Zoom step 1, LED`s Z-2 (Pos. 43) =
Zoom step 2, LED`s Z-1 + Z-2 (Pos. 41 + 42) = Zoom step 3.
The Zoom step is changed by pressing the Zoom button (Pos. 44).
Use the button (Fig. 78/Pos. 33) to switch on the collimator light field and center the cassette
template included in the shipment on the tabletop.
Move the iris diaphragm to the desired position with the keys Iris open (Fig. 78/Pos. 38) or
Iris closed (Pos. 36).
To save the currently selected zoom step, press and hold the Store button (Pos. 54) on the
manual controller and then, both iris buttons (Pos. 36 and 38) should be pressed either
together or in sequence.
Then the adjustment should be checked, and if needed, corrected under fluoroscopy.
Caution:
During radiographic fluoroscopy, radiation safety regulations must be observed.
Since the position of the horizontal and vertical collimator plates also need to be saved for
improved radiation safety, they must be moved as exactly as possible to the limit of the iris
diaphragm without them being visible in the radiation field.
Save the position of the collimator plates with the Store (Fig. 78/Pos. 54) and Light (Pos. 33)
buttons.
Perform this routine for all zoom steps.
The values can be resaved as often as wished, the old settings will be overwritten when this
is done.
After completing adjustment work, all parameters must be saved in the EEprom by pressing
the Reset button (Pos. 56).
The switch the unit into the normal mode with the switch (Fig. 77/Pos. 1), the green LED
(Pos. 2) on the controller blinks.
Switch off the unit. Connect the PC and the unit using the connection cable included in the
shipment.
Switch the unit into the service mode with the switch (Fig. 77/Pos. 1), the green LED (Pos. 2)
controller goes on continuously.
Start the URO service tool. See 3.23
Open the parameter file included in the shipment and read the parameters from the Uromat
and save them (do not overwrite the original file).
The maintenance described below must be performed every12 months.
If unit components need to be moved using the motor during maintenance, or if functions
need to be checked while the unit is under power, the unit must be switched off immediately
after reaching the new position or after completing the particular work step and the
