Medside Data Station Field Service Manual

1Introduction In keeping with the Service Strategy for the Medside Data Station (MDS),

this Service Manual provides the necessary information required to
troubleshoot and service a Windows NT-based MDS. The MDS is powered
by an AC/DC power adapter, and can be placed on a desktop or attached
to a wall bracket. Control of all Medside Data Station functions is done by
means of a keyboard and a mouse. (It is recommended that the keyboard
and mouse be purchased through SIEMENS, to avoid any possible
incompatibility problems). The display screen has a 1280 x 1024 resolution
capabilities which enables the user to display and run applications such as

NFINITY

TM

Explorer and Webview.

For the purpose of clarification, special text in this Service Manual is

described below:

Bold Characters text that is to be typed in by the User.

Character a space required between typed characters.

^

Italic Characters a selection that is required by the User.

2Troubleshooting If the Medside Data Station should fail to respond properly, use the

procedures below to aid in identifying and remedying the problem.

4 Phoenix BIOS Phlas h Each MDS is shipped with a default BIOS switch installed at the factory.

Phlashing BIOS is necessary only if current MDS BIOS is not operating
correctly or if an updated version is needed to correct MDS system
failures. If original BIOS is not operating correctly, complete Sect ion 2.2
before Phlashing BIOS. If Section 2.2 fails to correct problem, Phlash BIOS
as described below.

BIOS Phlash files are distributed in 4 formats:

• Existing Phlash files on MDS hard drive.

• Phlash files on MDS Software CDROM (shipped with each MDS).

• Upgrade Phlash files ordered from factory.

• Upgrade Phlash files downloaded from EM location
on MED-TD site (www-td.med.siemens.de).

Setup MDS to phlash the MDS BIOS as described in Section 4.1 and

Section 4.2 below.

Appendix B: Bios Messages

The following is a list of the messages that the BIOS displays. Most error
messages occur during POST test. See “Appendix C: POST Error Codes”
on page 47. Some messages display information about a hardware device,
e.g., the amount of memory installed. Other messages may indicate a
problem with a device, such as the way it has been configured. The
following list of messages includes explanations of error messages and
possible remedies for reported problems.

*If your system displays one of the messages marked below with an
asterisk (*), write down the message and contact TSS Danvers or TSS
Solna. If the MDS fails after making changes in the BIOS Setup menus,
reset the computer, enter BIOS Setup and verify Setup (see Section 3) to
correct the error.

0200 Failure Fixed Disk

Fixed disk is not working or not configured properly. Check to see if fixed
disk is attached properly. Run BIOS Setup. Find out if the fixed-disk type
is correctly identified (see Section 3.1).

0210 Stuck key

Stuck key on keyboard.

0211 Keyboard error

Keyboard not working.

*0212 Keyboard Controller Failed

Keyboard controller failed test. May require replacing keyboard
controller.

0213 Keyboard locked - Unlock key switch

Field Service Manual Medsi de Data Station

0251 System CMOS checksum bad - Default configuration used

System CMOS has been corrupted or modified incorrectly, perhaps by
an application program that changes data stored in CMOS. The BIOS
installed Default Setup Values. If you do not want these values, enter
Setup and enter correct values (see Section 3.1). If the error persists,
contact TSS Danvers/Solna.

*0260 System timer error

The timer test failed. Requires repair of system board.

*0270 Real time clock error

Real-Time Clock fails BIOS hardware test. May require board repair.

0271 Check date and time settings

BIOS found date or time out of range and reset the Real-Time Clock. May
require setting legal date (1991- 2099).

0280 Previous boot incomplete - Default configuration used

Previous POST did not complete successfully. POST loads default values
and offers to run BIOS Setup. If the failure was caused by incorrect
values and they are not corrected, the next boot will likely fail. On
systems with control of wait states, improper Setup settings can also
terminate POST and cause this error on the next boot. Run Setup and
verify that the wait-state configuration is correct. This error is cleared the
next time the system is booted.

Appendix C: POST Error Codes

Recoverable POST Errors Whenever a recoverable error occurs during POST, PhoenixBIOS displays

an error message describing the problem.

Terminal POST Errors There are several POST routines that issue a POST Terminal Error

message and shut down the system if the routines fails. Before shutting
down the system, the terminal-error handler issues a beep code signifying
the test point error, writes the error to port 80h, attempts to initialize the
video, and writes the error in the upper left corner of the screen (using both
mono and color adapters).

Test Point Error Code At the beginning of each POST routine, the BIOS outputs the test point

error code to I/O address 80h. Use this code during trouble shooting to
establish at what point the system failed and what routine was being
performed. If external hardware error is displayed, (eg.mouse, keyboard,
etc.) Check external hardware and hardware connections, then reboot
MDS. If other errors are displayed, write down error code and contact TSS
Danvers/Solna. If the BIOS detects a terminal error condition, it halts POST
and attempts to display the error code on upper left corner of the screen.

If the system hangs before the BIOS can process the error, the value
displayed at the port 80h is the last test performed. In this case, the screen
does not display the remaining error code.

The following is a list of the checkpoint codes displayed and written at the
start of each test, and the beep codes issued for terminal errors. Unless
otherwise noted, these codes are valid for PhoenixBIOS 4.0 Release 6.x.
