2 - 2 Introduction

Prerequisites 2

MAMMOMAT 2

1. The installation of the Siemens MAMMOMAT must be completed.

2. For MAMMOMAT 3000 Nov a with serial No. low er than 6850, upgrade with extended radiation field kit No. 64 83 551.

3. For MAMMOMAT 3000 Nova with serial No. lower than 7000, upgrade with AEC kit No. 65 52 819. If the AEC kit is inst alled directly before the prom kit No. 66 24 410, use proms from the prom kit if those are of higher version than the AEC proms.

Prerequisites (installat ion kit no. 65 52 819): Depending on the serial number and/or version of t he software of your MAMMOMAT, complementary measures may have to be taken. These measures are described below.

- For MAMMOMAT 3000 with serial number lower than 2056: If not done previously; cha nge the polarity of the stereo le ver switch.

- For MAMMOMAT 3000 with serial number lower than 3242: Make sure that the art icle no. of the PC board D702 is 64 21 288.

- For MAMMOMAT 3000 software version lower than v1.5: Replace HSE detectors. The part no. of the HSE detect ors must be 38 47 626.

- For MAMMOMAT 3000 software version lower than v2.2: Calibrate the swivel-arm rotati on.

NOTICE

The tables for Fuji CR HR-BD imaging plate in IP CASS-BD M will be installed on D and will overwrite existing tables.

Make sure that the correction tables for the film/screen combination are installed on H.

If more than one film/screen combination has been installed, one of them has to be removed.

Fuji equipment 2

Fuji FCR 5000 MA reader with Fuji CR Console with SW versio n A06 or higher. The installation of the Fuji FCR 5000MA reader and the Fuji CR Console must be com-

pleted. It is recommended that a Fuji service engineer is present during the installation.

Abbreviations 2

FCR = Fuji Computed Radiography IVK = Installed Volume Component IP = Imaging Plate LAN = Local Area Network

Unpacking and setup of the AEC kit for Fuji CR 3

= Option

Unpacking 3

Unpack the accessories from the box.

Setup 3

• Disconnect the network cables from the Fuji equipment. The original network connection

shall be restored when the AEC calibratio n has been performed.

• Connect the MAMMOMAT, Fuji FCR 5000 MA reader, Fuji CR Console and service PC

to the switch with the enclosed network cabl es (Siemens material No. 99 00 440) according to Fig. 1. Use the same network socket s on the Fuji equipment as before.

• Connect the switch to the incoming mains.

• Connect the service PC to the MAMMOMAT according to the MAMMOMAT’s Technical

Manual.

Protective measures 9

It is very important that any interv ention in the equipment wil l start by disconnect ing it from the power supply with the main circuit-breaker.

WARNING

If the system is only switched off at the control panel or with S2/D711, line vol ta ge will still be prese nt a t the generat or l ine connection, line filter Z1, Z2, transformer T1, transformer T10 and PC board D711 (see MAMMOMAT 3000 Nova Wiring Diagram).

Life-threatening electric shock hazard exists. Disconnect mains cable and com ply with the information on this

page.

After shut-down of the system, there may still be 380 V DC present on the intermediate circuit.

Life-threatening electric shock hazard exists. The voltage level will be indicated by LED V24 on PC board D710.

The voltage will dr op to less than 30 V withi n about 3 minutes, the LED goes out at about 30 V.

Symbols 9

Checks and adjustments that m ust be perf ormed with radi ation ON are i dentif ie d by the radiation w a rning symbol.

Delay times between two exposures 9

Delay times listed below must be followed in order to prevent the tube from overheating.

Object table group 9

An object table group contai ns all object tab les of the same type. There are four groups of object tables - Grid, No grid, Magni fication and Stereo. For ex ample the obj ect tab le group Grid, consists of Grid 18x24 and Grid 24x30.

NOTE

Stereo shall not be used together with Fuji CR.

General conditions 9

When performing the settings in this chapter, there are some general conditions valid for all settings:

• The detector is to be in chest wall position.

MAM00616

• The AEC calibration plexi (material No. 65 61 224 and 65 61 232) must extend at least 10

mm beyond the chest wall edge of the table and be centere d. Place the AEC calibration plexi in the same position for all exposures.

Calibration conditions 9

Compression plate must not be used during the calibration of corre ction tables. From the point sensitivity correction (fine setting) a compression plate may be used.

Reference IP cassette 9

Every DIGISCAN M system should have a reference IP cassette. Use this reference IP cassette where required and for the settings in this chapter. If there is no dedicated reference IP cassette, pick one IP cassette, mark it and use it for the settings in this chapter.

Mains voltage 9

Unless otherwise stated, the mains voltage and system must be ON and the service program running, before performing any setting in this chapter.

Sensitivity conditions 9

• One step (1/8 E.P.) corresponds to approximately 4 AD Values.

AEC Correction tables 9

This section will guide you through the following steps:

• Installation of correction tables (F2).

• Calibration of correction tables (F3), inclu ding rough setting of sensitiv ity correction.

The AEC uses one correction table for each Anode/Filter/Speed combination. Each correction table has separ ate corrections for eac h object tabl e group (Magnifi cation, Grid and No grid).

Installation of AEC correction tables 9

1. Start the AECImageExtract applicat ion on the service PC by running the batch fi le go.bat that can be found under the direc tory C:\AECImageExtract.

It is important to use 450 and the specified AEC calibration plexi (material No. 65 61 224 and 65 61 232) during the procedures under “Calibrate correction tables”, since measurements are relative to factory results at 450. The AD Value preferred by the customer can be adjusted later either in Sensitivity correction or Sensitivity.

2. Insert the reference IP cas ette in the grid object table.

3. Make an AEC exposure with 28 kV and Mo/Mo. Select the AEC D button to use the AEC mode.

4. Record the indicated mAs value in the test pr otocol.

5. Remove the reference IP cassette.

6. Position the ionization chamber ins ide the cassette compartment above the AEC detector.

Troubleshooting Guide 13

Ping Network fails 13

• Verify that the network cable between the service PC and the switch is connect ed.

• Verify that the right information is used when creating new net work nodes.

Verify Connection fails 13

• Verify that the AECImageExtract application is installed in path C:\AECImageExtract\.

• Verify that the AECImageExtract application is running on the ser vice PC.

• Verify that the right information is used when creating new net work nodes.

No images are transferred to the Fuji CR Console 13

• Verify that the network cable between the Fuji FCR 5000MA and the switch are

connected to the same network socket in the reader as the ordinary cable, and that the other end of the cable is connected to t he switch.

• Verify that the AEC Calibration exposure menu and property setting has been cor rectly

performed.

13 - 1

The AEC Calibration exposure menu does not appear in the exposure menu

Verify that the AEC Calibration exposure menu has been correctly performed.

If any other problem occurs, please refer to the AT-FS705 Series Installation Guide, Fuji FCR 5000MA Operation Manual, Fuji CR Console Operation Manual or the local Fuji office.
