2. General explanations
The PENTAX EPK-i is a high-end Video Processor, which produces High Definition images with a
specially developed scope “Mega Scope 90i”. Several image processing methods (advanced
enhancement, etc.) that help the user observe precisely and easily have been introduced. At the same
time, the EPK-i keeps compatibilities with the former K-series scopes (Y/C signal type). To obtain stiller
frozen images, a m echanical structure (rotary shutter etc,) has been built in. A user-friendly manner has
been established with several new devices.
Features
1) High Definition image> High Definition im ages can be created with “Mega Scope 90i” wh ich has a
2) Advanced Enhancement> In addition to the ordinary image enhancement (Edge enhancement),
3) Still and Fine Freeze> Thanks for the progressive scan method on the mega pixel CCD and the
4) LCD Touch panel>As an operational panel, an LCD touch screen panel has been introduced. T he
5) SA-P2 port>The exclusive port for the water jet supplier SA-P2 is available on the back panel of
6) Lamp>The lam p (300W xenon lamp) c an be replaced by a lamp cartridge (OL-X25) by the user
mega pixel CCD. The 90i scope pr ovides the image data in digital signal to the EPK-i. The EPK-i
can process the image signal without converting the analog signal. The EPK-i has a DVI (Digital
Visual Interface) output port . Therefore non deteriorated image can be seen on the PENTAX LCD
monitor (when “DVI-D” port of the monitor is used. / For analog signal, “VGA” port is also available
on the monitor). The DVI port can provide either DVI (digital sig nal) or VGA (analog signal)
depending on “DVI Output” setting of the system (refer to the Owner’s Manual). The default setting
is “VGA”. When the f ull digital environment is used, “DVI Output” must be set to “DVI”. Otherwise
the image will not appear on the monitor.
Note: PENTAX LCD monitor will be launched soon.
A summery for the monitor connec tor, exclusive cable and “DVI Output” setting are shown in the
table below:
Connector on LCD monitor
DVI-D
VGA
Note: The connectors shown in the table are male.
Because DVI signal is ver y fast, the DVI cab le is limited to 3m. With a longer cable, the image
becomes noisy as oppos ed to the image on the analog CRT monitor becoming darker with an
analog longer cable.
Surface Enhancement and Contrast Enhancement are available. Both enhancement modes cannot
be used simultaneously. The other one will be disabled.
rotary shutter of the EPK-i, stiller and finer images can be captured. Because of the progressive
scanning the captured image is real as opposed to the compensated or interpolated image f rom the
field scanning. The finer image is attributed to the progressive scanning. Meanwhile the rotary
shutter controls the exposure time. The shorter th e exposure time is, the s tiller the frozen image
becomes. However as the side effect the image becomes darker. Together with the ordinary iris, the
rotary shutter controls the e xposure time as short as possible and so that the luminance becomes
enough for the acceptably brighter and stiller image. During the progressive scan, the next light
comes through the hole of the rotary shutter. Thus another mechanical shutter interrupts the light.
This shutter is driven by a solenoid motor and momentarily closes. As a result of the stiller freeze,
mechanical parts are increased. H owever no adjustment or it is easy if any.
EPK-i has a single boar d computer inside. Thus it takes about one and half minutes by the LCD
touch panel is ready for the operation. The LCD touch panel reacts by pressure, which is a sensitive
device. Do not operate it with a sharp edge. The lamp, pump and white balance switches are
independent from the single board computer. It means the lamp can be turned on and the pump
works with level-1 before the system has been up and running. The LCD touch screen has a
function that an image put from “VIDEO IN” port is displayed.
the EPK-i. When the scope button or the foot switch assigned with function “WJ” is pressed, an
open-collector, active-low signal is sent to the SA-P2 to turn on and off.
(refer to the Owner’s Manual). The door of the lamp house can be opened without any special tool.
This door activates the interlock switch for AC power of the unit when it is completely closed. The
lamp cartridge consists of the lamp, two heat sinks and IR cut filter. Trained service engineers are
allowed to replace the lamp itself (The Service manual for the EPK-i will be issued soon. Please
refer to it in detail).

7) Pump>Air feed volume can be changed in five levels with the touch screen panel. The air feed
volumes of each level are set with the special Set up menu (It is a hidden menu to customers).
When the peripheral board (G700) is replaced for the pump func tion repair, the former setting value
can be reused without measuring the air f eed volume with an air flow meter. When the pump is
replaced, the air feed volumes of each level will be adjusted with the menu by measuring the air
feed volume with the air flow meter. The peripheral board is attached with a small tube from the
pump. It has been prepared for the precise air feed control, however it is not currently working. But
if it is detached, the air must leak at this point. As a result, the air won’t be fed from the air outlet.
8) Auxiliary lamp>3W while light LED has been introduced as an auxiliary lamp. When the main lamp
ignition failure continues for about 8 seconds, t he auxiliary lamp automatically comes into the light
axis by the solenoid motor.
9) DC Power supply for patient circuit>The DC power supply unit for the patient circuit exists
independently from the DC power supply unit for the secondary circuits. However the input of the
DC power supply unit for the patient circuit is connected to the DC output of the DC power supply
unit for the secondary circuits. The reason why the DC po wer supply units individually exist is just
due to limited spaces of the EPK-i unit inside.
10) Lamp power supply unit>The main unit and the igniter exist individually. Of course they are
connected each other. However they can be treated as a spare part independently.
11) Scope detector>A limit switch has been attached just beside the scope connector assembly. When
the scope handle is turned clockwise to lock the scope connector, the switch is activated and the
system recognizes that the scope has been connected completely.
12) Processor ID>The processor model name “EPK-i” and its serial number have been stored as ID.
These information must be necessary for the LAN environment.
13) Serial and LAN port>Using an USB memory device or LAN, system modification can be done
easily.
14) XLUM and Manual mode>Both modes act as an iris manual mode. On the basis of the
concepts that “XLUM” is for confirming the location of the scope distal tip and “Manual” is for
observing the specific parts in vivo in iris manual mode, these modes are available
independently.
3. Functions
1) Preprocess Board (J700)
1)-1 Image signal processing> Because the EPK-i can accept all types of the K-series scopes,
Preprocess board has a function that can process the three kinds of the image signals such as
R-Y/B-Y color differential signal (old 30/40 series), Y/C signal (30/40 or 70/80 series ) and LVDS
signals (90K and 90i series).
R-Y/B-Y and Y/C signals (anal og) are converted into 10 bit YUV signal with the video decoder/ADC
(U16).
The 20 bit YUV signal is sent to the FPGA (U23) and converted into 12 bit YCbCr signal.
Finally the 12 bit YCbCr sig nal is sent to Process board (H 700) through the connector CN13 on
Mother board(E700).
As for LVDS signal, DO+/DO- (LVDS: Low Voltage Differential Signal) is sent to the
serializer/deserializer (U42) to be serialized into 12 bit (90i scope) or 8 bit (90K scope) LVDS signal.
The LVDS signal is sent to the also the FPGA (U23) to be converted into 12 bit YCbC r signal.
Finally the 12 bit YCbCr signal is sent to Process board (H700) through the connector (CN13) on
Mother board(E700) as well.
With 90i scope, the white balance is adjusted with the FPGA (U23). With the other scopes, the white
balance is adjusted with the control board in the scope.
1)-2 Iris signal> Depending on a scope, there are three kinds of signals from the scope that is used for
the iris control – “YIRI S” (90K scope), “Yout” (30/40, 70/80K scope) and “DO+/DO-“ (90i scope). And
there are two types of processing the iris control signals.
“YIRIS” or “Yout” signal is converted into 12 bit iris control signal with the AD converter (U56).
“DO+/DO-“ is converter into 12 bit iris control signal with the FPGA (U23).
Both converted signals are sent to Peripheral board (G700) through the connector (CN13) on
Mother board (E700).
1)-3 Patient circuit> Bec ause Preprocess board that is directly connected to the scope exchanges
signals with the scope, it has digital isolators that divides Preprocess board into the patient circuit
and the ordinary circuit.
2) Process Board (H 700)
2)-1 Image signal processing>This board receives 12 bit YCbCr signal from Preprocess board (J700)
through Mother board (E700).
- 3 -
The 12 bit YCbCr signal is processed by enhancing or changing color with the front panel operation
with the FPGA (U2).
The processed YCbCr image sig nal is converted in to 10 bit RGB signal with the DSP (U2), and
sent to the FPGA (U39).
The 10 bit RGB signal is sent to Video process board (I700) through the connector (CN8) on Mother
board (E700) after gamma compensation with the FPGA (U39).
Meanwhile the same 10 bit RGB signal is converted into 8 bit RGB signal with the FPGA (U39).
The 8 bit RGB signal is sent to the digital display processor (U51) to be superim posed with
characters.
The 8 bit RGB signal with characters is sent to the two ways. On e is to the panel link transmitter
(U56) to be converted into the image signa l for DVI. And the image signal for DVI i s sent to I/O-1
board (L700) with the internal cable (B521).
The other one is sent to D/A converter (U59) to be converted into RGB analog signal for VGA. And
the RGB analog signal is sent to I/O-1 board (L700) with the internal cable (B522).
The digital display processor (U51) has function t o zoom up the image or to make a sub screen.
2)-2 Character generati on>The FPGA (U2) handles the keyboard operation.
The FPGA (U2) detects the character inputs a nd sends the instructions to the digital display
processor (U51) to create the characters.
The digital display processor (U51) generates the characters and merges them to the image signal.
The fixedly displayed texts like “Age” are stored in the memories connected to the FPGA (U2).
These texts are also merged to the image signal with the digital display processor (U51).
The FPGA (U2) also sends the instruction to the digital image processor on Video Board (I700) in
order to create appropr iate characters to meet the different display resolutio n.
3) Video Board (I700)
3)-1 Image signal processing-1>This board receives 10 bit RGB signal from Process board (H700)
through Mother board (E700).
The 10 bit RGB signal is convert ed into the 8 bit RGB signal and sent to the digital display
processor (U100, 102) to be merged with characters.
The 8 bit RGB with characters is sent to the digital video encoder (U3 03) through the FPGA (U301)
and encoded into RGB analog signal. Finally the signal is sent to th e RGB port x2 on th e back panel
through I/O-1 board (L700).
Also the 8 bit RGB with characters is sent to the digital video encoder (U310) through the FPGA
(U301) and encoded into Y/C analog signal. Finally the signal is sent to the Y/C port x2 on the back
panel through I/O-1 board (L700).
The same 8 bit RGB signal with characters is corrected with the FPGA (U301) in order to meet the
required printer color. The look-up-table in the FPGA (301) is used for the color compensation. The
corrected RGB signal is converted into RGB and Y/C analog signal with the digital v ideo encoder
(U317 and U324) and sent to the RGB or Y/C printer port on the back panel through I/O-2 board
(M700). Note: This port is not available with 120V model.
3)-2 Image signal processing-2>This board creates DV format image signal.
The 10 bit RGB signal is converted into the 8 bit RGB signal and sent to the digital display
processor (U100) to be merged with c haracters.
The 8 bit RGB with characters is sent to the DV encoder (U411) through the FPGA (U301) and
encoded into DV signal. Finally the signal is sent to the DV port on the back panel through I/O-2
board (M700). Audio picked up by the microphone attached to “Audio IN” port on the back panel is
converted into 4 bit digital signal and sent to the D V encoder (U411) to merge to the DV signal.
3)-3 Image signal processing-3>This board receives the outer video signal to superimpose it on the main
image.
Outer video image is accepted f rom “COMPOSITE-IN” port through I/O-2 board (M700).
The outer video signal is converted into 8 bit rec656 format signal with the video decoder (U208)
and sent to the digital display processor (U100).
The outer video signal is processed as picture-in-picture data with the digital display processor
(U100) and merged to the main image.
4) Peripheral Board (G700)
4)-1 Iris control> With every type of scope, the luminance signal is converted into the 12 bit iris signal on
Preprocess board(J700).
The 12 bit iris signal is sent to the FPGA (U19) to measure if the current iris position is adequate
against the brightness set by the front panel.
The digital signal controller (U12) creates the iris reference signal (analog) by referring to the results
measured with the FPGA (U19). The iris reference signal is sent to the iris analog circuit to control
the iris.

4)-2 Rotary shutter c ontrol> To obtain a stiller frozen image, it is necessary to control an exposure time of
light. It is accomplished by adjusting the hole on Rotary shutter (M4). The parts related to Rotary
shutter consist of Rotary shutter (M4), Space motor (M6), Photo int errupter (PI1) and Shutter (M3).
These are controlled with Peripheral Board ( G700).
4)-3 Pump control> The pump control signal (Pump ON-OFF, Air flow level 1-5) are sent from the front
panel to Peripheral Board (G700) through Process Board (H700) to turn the pum p ON-OFF.
The pump control sign al is sent to the micro controller (U32) to turn the pump ON-OFF.
After the micro controller (U32), a part of the pump control signal is sent to the digital potentiom eter
to set the air flow level.
4)-4 Auxiliary lamp control> The lamp power supply unit sends the lamp failure signal to Peripheral Board
(G700) when the lamp ignition fails or the main lamp turns off unexpectedly.
The lamp failure signal from the lamp power supply unit is detected by Peripheral Board (G700) and
sent to the FPGA (U19).
The FPGA (U19) sends signals to Auxiliary lamp to move its LED lamp into the light axis and turn on
the LED lamp.
5) SBC Board (F700 / SBC: Single Board Computer)
5)-1 Touch Panel and LCD Display control> To control the capacitive type touch panel and manage the
various operation buttons and menu tabs.
5)-2 USB Memory control> When the image is captured with the setting that the image output has been
assigned to “SERIAL OUT1, 2” port, the captured image will be sent to the USB memory connected
to the port.
5)-3 Patient Data management> To provide the graphical user interface for the patient data and store the
data.
5)-4 Serial port control> To control the RS-232C port for “ENDONET ” database software.
5)-5 LAN control> To control the port for a local area network .
