Regulatory Compliance
Dome CX displays have been tested and found to comply with IEC/EN 60601-1 and
IEC/EN 60601-1-2 standards, and are certified to meet medical standard C22.2 No. 601.1-M1990
(C US Mark).
The medical display, in addition to meeting medical requirements, has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Class B computing devices in
a typically configured system since many medical offices are located in residential areas. It is the
system integrator’s responsibility to test and ensure that the entire system complies with applicable
electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) laws.
Planar Systems, Inc. has made great efforts to support the medical device industry, in particular,
medical device manufacturers and medical device system integrators. We offer state-of-the-art
displays that are compliant with worldwide accepted medical device safety standards, and for
the European market, CE-marked displays based on compliance with counsel directive 93/42/EEC—
commonly referred to as the Medical Device Directive (MDD). The following summarizes our
qualification of these displays as it relates to compliance with the MDD.
The European Medical Device Directive requires that the intended use of the device be defined.
The intended use of these displays is “to display alphanumeric, graphic, and image data as inputted
from any type of medical device.” These displays do not provide a measurement function in any
way, and it is the device and systems manufacturer’s responsibility to verify its function in the
integrated device or system.
The display was classified as required by the MDD according to Annex IX of the directive and the
medical device (MEDDEV) guidance available at the time of classification. Because the display uses
electrical energy and has no direct patient connections and—by itself—no medical utility, the
display is classified according to Rule 12 as an MDD Class I device, component, or accessory. The
MDD states that manufacturers of Class I medical devices or accessories shall satisfy the
requirements in regard to design and manufacturing controls, that is, the applicable assessment
route to be used for CE-marking under the MDD, and it shall carry the CE mark according to
Annex XII of the directive, with no notified body annotation.

The applicable safety standards for an MDD Class I display are IEC/EN 60601-1:1990 along with
Amendments 1 and 2. To help the medical device designer evaluate the suitability of these displays,
Planar has also conducted EMC testing to IEC 60601-1-2 as it can be applied. The display with its
power supply alone does not represent a functional medical device. Hence, Planar configured
a minimal operating system to exercise the display. The resulting data are made available to
interested parties.
This is informative data, not certification data. Certification data must be obtained by the device or
system integrator according to Article 12 of the MDD titled “Particular procedure for systems and
procedure packs.” Paragraph 2 clearly outlines the device or system integrator’s responsibility in
this matter.
In summary, Planar Systems, Inc. is CE-marking these displays under the Medical Device Directive,
which establishes compliance to the basic medical safety standards. However, EMC compliance can
only be accomplished in the configured medical device or system and is the responsibility of the
device or system manufacturer. Planar has the necessary documentation such as IEC 60601-1
notified body and other third-party test reports and certifications, a risk/hazard analysis, an
essential requirements checklist, and the Planar International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC)
declaration of conformity.
Planar Systems, Inc., located in Beaverton, Oregon, USA, is the manufacturer of these displays in
the meaning of the directive. As required by the MDD in Article 14, Planar Systems, Inc., not residing
in the European Economic Area (EEA), has a European representative, Planar Systems, Inc.—
Olarinluoma 9, P. O. Box 46, FIN-02201 Espoo, Finland (phone + 358 9 420 01; fax + 358 9 420 0200).
In the opinion of Planar Systems, Inc. registration required to put this device into commerce is the
responsibility of the medical device/system manufacturer, and Planar supports this requirement by
providing a European Commission (EC) declaration of conformity. If Planar supplies a display to an
end user, rather than a device manufacturer, it is the end user’s responsibility to ensure continued
compliance with the MDD of the system in which the display is integrated.
For vigilance reporting as required under Article 10 of the MDD, Planar Systems, Inc. will provide
any information requested by competent authority to support any reported incident investigation
by such an authority.

Install the Display Driver
Before you install the driver, be sure to install all DX boards and connect all
CX displays first, then boot up your system to install the driver.
Installation preparation
Installing the DX/PCI driver for your Sun host requires about 500 KB of free space:
• 200 KB in /kernel/drv
• 100 KB in /usr/openwin/server/modules
• 200 KB in /usr/lib
The installation procedure for Solaris performs these tasks:
• Adds the device driver
• Adds the OpenWindows™ loadable DDX driver
• Modifies the OWconfig file
• Installs the DOMEmdlib shared object library
To install the driver
1 Boot up with the -r option.
2 Log on as root.
3 Insert the DOME DX Solaris driver CD.
4 Mount the CD device if the system does not automount it. Then type:
cd /cdrom/dome*
5 To transfer the software packages to the system, type:
pkgadd -d dxpci
where
ZZZ
= the revision of the software.
Dome CX Display System for Solaris
ZZZ.
pkg
Version conflict
If a previous version of the driver
software exists on your system,
remove it before you install the new
package. Type pkgrm, and select
the DOMEdx and DOMEmdlib
packages for removal. Do not
remove the DOMEmdlib package
already installed if it is newer than
the one on the CD.
Check the name of the file on the CD
to get the software revision.

Overriding the default display mode
To start CDE or OpenWindows using the default display mode, skip this section.
You can override the default display mode by editing the OWconfig file or by
setting DIP switch S1 to your preferred resolution. (See the table on page 31 for
the DIP switch settings.)
Edit the OWconfig file to override the default display mode and customize
your configuration for OpenWindows or CDE. Look for the OWconfig file in
/usr/openwin/server/etc
and in the /etc/openwin/server/etc directory
on the workstation. Edit the one in the /etc/openwin/server/etc directory.
To edit the OWconfig file
NOTE: The resolution for the Dome C3 display — 1536x2048 — is used throughout
this example. Substitute 1200x1600 for the Dome C2 display and 2048x2560 for the
Dome C5i display.
1 Find the following lines in the OWconfig file.
#class = "XSCREENCONFIG" name="DOMEdxpci0Config"
# device="/dev/dxpci0.0"
# res="1536x2048 Panel"
# monitor="domegray.vda"
# board="dxpci-2hd.xqa";
#class = "XSCREENCONFIG" name="DOMEdxpci1Config"
# device="/dev/dxpci0.1"
# res="1536x2048 Panel"
# monitor="domegray.vda"
# board="dxpci-2hd.xqa";
2 Delete the pound sign (#) at the beginning of each line to uncomment
the lines.
3 Edit the lines to match each device you installed, and save your changes.
Dome CX Display System for Solaris
Editing the config file
When you edit or modify code,
type it on one line. A backslash (\)
indicates continuation of the line.
NOTE: The resolution for the
Dome C3 display — 1536x2048 —
is used throughout this example.
Substitute 1200x1600 for the
Dome C2 display and 2048x2560
for the Dome C5i display.
When you install a new driver, it
overwrites the OWconfig file in
this directory:
/usr/openwin/server/etc
The OWconfig file in the directory
/etc/openwin/server/etc
remains unchanged. This ensures
that the changes you make will not
be overwritten when you update to
newer versions of the DOME driver.
Make sure you edit these lines in
the /etc directory only. If you
uncomment these lines in both
directories, your system ignores
them.

To modify the OWconfig file
NOTE: The resolution for the Dome C3 — 1536x2048 — is used throughout this
example. Substitute 1200x1600 for the Dome C2 and 2048x2560 for the Dome C5i.
This section explains the first example from the preceding sample code, line by line,
and tells how to modify those lines to match the device you are installing.
class="XSCREENCONFIG" name="DOMEdxpci0Config"
The name provided here must be unique in the OWconfig file. You can alter it as
long as you select a name that is not used for any other XSCREENCONFIG section.
device="/dev/dxpci0.0"
This line indicates the installation of a DX board to which the system assigned the
instance of zero (0). The second zero (0) indicates that you are using the first head. To
modify this line for the device you are installing, replace the first zero (0) with the
instance the system assigned to your board. For the second head, replace the
second zero (0) with a one (1).
res="1536x2048 Panel"
This line indicates that the resolution of your flat panel (pre-adjusted timing name) is
"1536x2048 Panel".
monitor="domegray.vda"
This line indicates that you are using a grayscale display and that the pre-adjusted
timing name is located in the display file domegray.vda.
Display files are located in the /opt/DOMEdxpci/monitors directory.
Do not modify these files unless DOME Support advises you to do so.
board="dxpci-2hd.xqa"
This line indicates that you are using two heads (-2hd) of a DX board (dxpci), and
that the configuration of the board is located in the board file dxpci-2hd.xqa.
The board file is located in the /opt/DOMEdxpci/boards directory. Do not modify
these files.
See the second code sample on page 13 for configuration of the second head.
Dome CX Display System for Solaris
Modifying code for resolution
When you modify the line
res="1536x2048 Panel",
use the exact name for your display
from the “Pre-Adjusted Timing
Name” column in the table on
page 32.
NOTE: The resolution for the
Dome C3 — 1536x2048 — is used
throughout this example. Substitute
1200x1600 for the Dome C2 and
2048x2560 for the Dome C5i.
Supporting color displays
To support a color display, use
"domecolr.vda" in place of
"domegray.vda"

Using visual classes
A visual class (or visual) is the X Window System™ terminology to describe the
characteristics of a display. X defines the visual classes listed in this table.
Static Class Dynamic Class
•StaticGray • GrayScale
•StaticColor • PseudoColor
•TrueColor • DirectColor
Static classes do not support the use of a modifiable colormap, but the
corresponding dynamic classes do.
PseudoColor is a common visual type. Some applications run only on displays with
a PseudoColor default visual class. When the DX board is connected to a grayscale
display, you can configure it to emulate PseudoColor for applications by invoking
the X Window System with PseudoColor as the default visual class.
To emulate a PseudoColor visual class
Start the X server using PseudoColor as the default visual class by adding
defclass PseudoColor
For example, for a one-headed system using the DX board, type:
openwin -dev /dev/dxpci0.0 defclass PseudoColor
For a two-headed system using the DX board, type:
openwin -dev /dev/dxpci0.0 defclass PseudoColor \
-dev /dev/dxpci0.1 defclass PseudoColor
Dome CX Display System for Solaris
to the openwin command and to the Xservers file.
Default visual class
When connected to grayscale displays,
the DX board has a default visual class
of GrayScale.

Configuring the Common Desktop Environment
If you select CDE as your windowing environment, use the instructions below to
configure it for your DX board.
CDE defaults to using a single framebuffer associated with /dev/fb, the boot
console. To change the startup configuration, copy the /usr/dt/config/Xservers
file to /etc/dt/config/Xservers, and edit it there.
This file contains mostly comments, but the last line is the command line used to
start the X server and bring up CDE. This is the default line:

DPMS Screen Saver
When you are running Solaris 2.5.1 to 9, CDE allows you to enable a Display Power
Management Signaling (DPMS) Screen Saver. DPMS provides a standard way to
manage the power used by your flat-panel display. DPMS shuts off the backlight in
the flat panel when the display is not in use. This reduces the power consumption of
the backlight and extends the life of the display.
You can enable DPMS through the Style Manager, just as you would invoke any
screen saver. You can also turn off DPMS to prevent your screen from powering off
during times when you are using the flat panel frequently.
Screen saver tips
If you select any screen saver other than, or in addition to, Blank Screen, the system
does not invoke DPMS. Instead, it uses the screen saver you selected.
• During times that you are using the flat-panel display frequently, set the Screen
Saver field to Off. This setting ensures that the display does not invoke DPMS,
which means that you do not have to wait for the display to stabilize when you
begin to use it again.
• Set the Screen Saver field to On when you plan to be away from the computer for
several hours. With the screen saver running, your system conserves energy, and
the backlight in the flat-panel display lasts longer.

Console Modification
The console appears, by default, on the first head of the first board in the system’s
probe list. You can change the console with the pci-probe-list environment
variable. If you want to change the console without altering the probe list, change
the output-device environment variable instead.
You can use the setenv command to change environment variables.
To use the setenv command
1 Power on or halt the system to get to the ok> prompt.
2 Type:
setenv output-device <device node>
These examples describe how to change the console in Ultra™ 10 and
Ultra 30 systems. For more details, refer to your Sun documentation.
3 To make the DX board the console in an Ultra 10 system, type:
setenv output-device /pci/DOME,DxPCI
For an Ultra 30 system, which has two PCI buses, type:
setenv output-device /pci@X/DOME,DxPCI
where X is the location of the board.
For example, if the board is installed at location 1f,4000, type:
setenv output-device /pci@1f,4000/DOME,DxPCI
4 Reboot the system.

Enhancements with Dome CXtra Software
The Dome CXtra™ application ships on the Dome DX Solaris diver CD. The Dome
CXtra software is automatically loaded with the default driver installation and added
to the CDE Application Manager.
The Dome CXtra software enhances the functionality of the Dome CX display for
viewing medical images in diagnostic settings.
The advantages of Dome CXtra includes consistent grayscale presentation of
images, as a result of conformance with the DICOM Grayscale Standard display
function. Specifically, the Dome CX display is fully calibrated to the DICOM response
curve. It uses an embedded RightLight™ sensor to provide continuous luminance
stability, guaranteeing consistent image quality and adherence to DICOM standards.
This sensor works with the digital interface board that is built into the back of the
Dome CX display.
