In the Federal Republic of Germany, the electrical installation of rooms for medical
purposes must conform to the provisions VDE Standard 0107. In all other countries
the national requirements have to be observed.
Check the installation layout plan.
During the installation it is important to check that all protective ground wire
connections provided by the manufacturer are properly made before the equipment is
switched on.
The protective ground wires between the individual system components and the
power supply have to be connected as shown in the wiring diagram.
Regulation of professional associations concerning safety and accident prevention
must be observed. No work may be performed on parts carrying a voltage higher than
42 V (peak voltage). If it is necessary to turn on the power for execution of
movements of the equipment in the course of installation procedure, it must be shut
down immediately after completion of these movements.

Drill holes for the floor mounting of theequipment as shown in dimensional drawing,
page 6, with a 12 mm/.472 in. drill. To ensure full range movability of the system
components, keep the minimum distances indicated. The bolts must be suitable for 2500 N
tensile stress at each mounting point. E.G. Liebig security anchors S12/65 N for DIN
1045 concrete floor.
Remove the vinyl or carpet floor covering around the mounting points for the base of the
unit. Lay floor covering shims (installation material, included with the shipment) of the
same thickness as the original floor covering at the mounting points.

2.6 Function checking
Switch on generator and check all functions. If necessary make adjustments according to
chapter 3. Adjustment.
2.7 Mounting of Trim Covers
Install lower cover (Fig.2, Item 5), connecting bar (Item 3) and upper cover (Fig.2, Item 2).
To adjust exposure height, remove covers (Fig. 1/Item 2) and (Fig. 2/Item 5).
Drive to the pre-set exposure position, then drive to the desired exposure position.
To change the pre-set value turn on Adjusting screw -R4: cw = upwards, ccw = downwards.
The new exposure position is reached when LED -V14 lights up.
The nominal value can be measured on -X16:9; approx. 8,6 V
Drive several times to exposure height and check exposure position; readjust if necessary.
A difference in the exposure height when driving from top to bottom or bottom to top can be
adjusted on Adjusting screw -R5. Switch on the unit and perform functional checking as
described under 4.2
3.2 Adjustment of Electronics
Adjust height potentiometer -R1 in that way that you have a half turn left of the
potentiometer in the top and in the bottom position.
Table adjustment max. at the top:
Drive the table upwards and stop just before reaching the safety limit switch -S4. Make
adjustment with Adjusting screw -R2 so that LED V12 is just about to light up. Drive to
upper position several times and correct settings - if necessary - on Adjusting screw -R2 .
(cw = upwards, ccw = downwards). The nominal value can be measured on -X16:7;
approx. 11V.
Table adjustment max. at the bottom:
Drive the table downwards and stop just before reaching the safety switch limit switch -S4.
Make adjustment with Adjusting screw -R6 so that LED V16 is just about to light up. Drive
to bottom end position several times and correct settings - if necessary - on Adjusting
screw -R6 . (cw = upwards, ccw = downwards). The nominal value can be measured on X16:11; approx. 1,65V.
Exposure height:
Drive to the preset exposure position, then drive to the desired exposure position.
Change setting value on Adjusting screw -R4: cw = upwards resp. Ccw = down wards.
LED -V14 is showing the reached exposure position.
The nominal value can be measured on -X19:9; drive to approx. 8,6V exposure
height several times and control exposure position; readjust if necessary.
The different exposure height when driving upwards resp. downwards can be balanced on
Adjusting screw -R5.
The nominal value can be measured on -X19:10; approx. 0,18V
Slow motion range adjustment
On Adjusting screw -R7, the time for the slow down or slow stop speed for the table drive
and for the exposure height can be adjusted. cw = increase of slow down speed; ccw =
decrease of slow down speed. -V17s illuminated during slow down speed. Check Point: X16:12; approx. 0,55 V
Slow motion time adjustment
If table movement is actuated it will start with a slow motion speed; after the pre-set time
the movement will go to fast motion. The time can be adjusted on Adjusting screw -R8. cw =
longer period of time ccw = shorter period of time. Slow motion period is shown on LED V18. Check point: -X16:13; approx. 0,5 sec.
3.3 Adjustment of the Bucky in lateral direction
Loosen the screws (Fig. 9/ Item 1) from the four mounting brackets. Adjust the Bucky in
lateral direction if alignment to X-ray field is off and fasten afterwards the four screws again.
