Description of Function 3 of 5
Control of multileaf collimator
When the system is switched on, the multileaf collimators starts with an initialization
routine. The following functions are checked during initialization:
- Function of the stepping motors
- Function of the search run switches S2, S3, S4
- Zero backlash of the mechanical system
- FOC (fiber-optic cable) connection to central control unit M9
In the servicemode, operating errors of the multileaf collimator are shown on
display V185, board D12.
After 50 exposures or 3 hours, the multileaf collimator performs in each case a new
self-calibration with the aid of a search run.
The search run switches S2, S3, S4 are operated twice.
Each time this search run has been terminated, the multileaf collimator returns into
its initial position - i.e. its position prior to the search run.
