2 PRELIMINARY INFORMATION
This manual describes the unpacking operations of the equipment in its most complete version.
This equipment has been manufactured and checked in factory by following production and testing methods
which are in compliance with the most recent International Standards and with the Medical Devices Directive
93/42 EC and its revised versions.
During the testing, a Test Report including the following information:
Accuracy test of radiological data (kV - mA - ms)
Compliance test of light field- x-ray field
Electrical accuracy test (PE resistance and leaked currents)
has been filled out with the results of the obtained measures.
In order to ensure that during the transport from factory to user the equipment has not been damaged and it is
still efficient, functional tests and checks must be performed during the installation phase of the equipment.
To check the output data, it is necessary a non-invasive tool to measure kV and exposure time. Without this
tool, it is possible to check the data directly on the equipment display.
If specific acceptance checks are required by the hospital or Government regulations, perform first all checks
described in this chapter.

1. INTRODUCTION
This chapter describes the necessary procedures for the covers removal and the replacement of
electronic boards and other generator parts.
When a connector is detached from its own board, make sure that it is properly identified,
otherwise, put a temporary label with the description of the board and connector (for example
“B2-CM15”).
When a mechanical or electrical component has been replaced, perform the working tests of the
unit as described in the chapter “Acceptance & Installation – 2”.
MCA PLUS satisfies the electrical safety standards and the EMC standards and, in normal
conditions, there is no risk of malfunction caused by electromagnetic interferences. For this
reason, when a board is replaced or you work inside the unit, at the end of the intervention, it is
necessary to restore all the electrical safety devices (ground connections, cables shields,
inductances,...) that were removed.
During the normal use or during the service interventions, it can occur that the painted parts
damage. In order to touch up small parts, a paint kit for touch-up is delivered with the unit. It
consists of three paint pots and three brushes.
USE ONLY ORIGINAL PAINTS INCLUDED INTO THE KIT OF PAINTS FOR TOUCH UP.
In case the paint kit for touch-up is available even as spare part (see Parts List).
At the end of every technical intervention, fill in the “SERVICE INTERVENTION” label with date,
name, signature and intervention number/code. You can find it with the unit use documentation.
See chapt. “SERVICE INFORMATION” § 1.
OBSERVE PRECAUTIONS FOR HANDLING

ELECTROSTATIC SENSITIVE DEVICES
WARNING: ESD can damage disk drives, cards, memory modules and other parts.
We recommend that you do all procedures in this guide only at an ESD workstation.
If one is not available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist
strap attached to any unpainted metal surface when handling parts. If you don't have
one, discharge static electricity from yourself and your clothing by touching a nearby
metal surface before handling any internal components.

1. ELECTRICAL ADJUSTMENTS
The most important electrical adjustments are performed through the SERVICE MODE (see chap.
“Service Information- 6 §6). In this way, it is possible to modify the operating parameters even if the unit
cover is closed (by minimizing risks and times).
The adjustments that require the cover removal are performed in factory during the unit testing and,
usually, they don't need to be re-performed.
1.1. Trimmers / Potenziometri

Every trimmer is properly adjusted in factory. Perform possible adjustments only if it is strictly necessary.
Improper adjustments could be dangerous.

2. X-RAY SYSTEM ADJUST.

2.1. Adjustment of the filament current
This adjustment is normally performed in factory, so it is not necessary to perform any further
adjustments.
In order to enter the B8-Filament board, it is necessary to disassemble some unit parts.
Disassembling of the rear cover:
Chap. ”Replacements – 3” §2.2.1
Ref. Fig. 1
 Adjust the P3 trimmer in completely counterclockwise.
 Place the Jp1 jumper in “b-c” position.
 Check that between Tp4 and Tp9(-) the voltage is <80mV.
 Place the multimeter between Tp5(+) and Tp9(-).
 Check and eventually adjust P2 in order to have a voltage of 1,5Vdc±0,05.
 Check and eventually adjust P3 in order to have a voltage of 2,5Vdc±0,05.
 Connect an oscilloscope between B8-Tp3 (+) and B8-Tp1 (-).

 Check and eventually adjust the potentiometer B8-P1 to read a frequency of 32kHz(+0/ -500Hz).
The potentiometer B8-P3 is used only for the factory tests.

!!! WARNING !!!
IONIZING RADIATION EMISSION DURING THE OPERATIONS DESCRIBED BELOW.
TAKE THE PROPER PRECAUTIONS SO THAT NO BODY PART IS EXPOSED TO DIRECT AND INDIRECT
RADIATION
.
2.2.1. Tube calibration in continuous fluoroscopy
Purpose:
Get the proper filament ignition at the set kV and the output power.
Procedure:
Place the digital multimeter between Tp17(+) and Tp3(-) and adjust P4 to obtain 0V±0.005V
Place the oscilloscope on the board PSM18:
channel A: probe Tp17 (format 1V = 1mA) – Tp3 GND.
channel B: probe Tp14 (format 1V = 20kV) – Tp3 GND.
Place the digital multimeter on:
B8-Tp6 (probe, format 1V-100mA) and B8-Tp1 (GND).
Adjustment of the value “ADJ START IFIL FLUO”.

Set a series of three exposures in Manual Fluoroscopy (60kV, 80kV, 100kV with paired mA) for at least
10sec.
For every exposure value enter collimator Service Mode (password “1001”). Perform Manual fluoroscopy
for at least 10sec.
Take the value that appears on the display and note down it.
Exit from the Service Mode (Don’t save the data!!!). Set another value and repeat the previous points. At
the end of the three exposures, average out of the three found values.
Enter Service Mode, password “5798” and set the value “Adj Fil Fluoro” at the value of the mean
previously calculated.
Purpose of the procedure described above is to get a fluoroscopy wave-form as straight as possible.
Page 4/40 [File: 201180-00-01-D.doc]

4.5.1. Iris calibration
(for fixed anode version with RTP 1000 memory
with Board B5 cod.01791/X:

Place a digital multimeter between OFC01-Tp3 (+) and OFC01-Tp4 (GND).
Control manual fluoroscopy by keeping the data found for the correct dose, check that on the board
OFC01 the led Ld1 (yellow) is OFF.
Place a digital multimeter between B11-Tp2 (+) and B11-Tp6 (GND).
Adjust the potentiometer P2 of the board OFC01 and control manual fluoroscopy by keeping the data
measured for the correct dose and check that the voltage read on the multimeter is 800mV (-0V +50mV).
Control manual fluoroscopy by keeping the data found for the correct dose and check that the voltage read
on the multimeter is of 3V (-0V +0,2V).
After performing the two adjustments described above, control manual fluoroscopy and note down the
voltage present between OFC01-Tp3 (+) and OFC01-Tp4 (GND) (“point A”, about –5,94V).
Select automatic fluoroscopy with standard mA curve.
Control automatic fluoroscopy and read the voltage present on the multimeter.
If this voltage is not equal to 800mV (-0 + 50mV), enter Setup (code 5798) and adjust the parameter “ABC
Reference” till the correct value of 800mV is obtained.
Check, in different conditions, that the automatic kV system balances correctly (typically 62kV – 2,75mA).
Without modifying the radiological data, select manual fluoroscopy and control Snapshot. Check that on the
board OFC01 the led Ld1 (yellow) lights up, adjust the potentiometer P1 of the board OFC01 and check that
the voltage read by the multimeter is equal to 800 mV.


Control Snapshot and check that the voltage read on the multimeter is 800mV (-0 +50mV).
After performing the two adjustments described above, control Snapshot and note down the voltage present
between OFC01-Tp3 (+) and OFC01-Tp4 (GND) (“point B”, about –3,87V).
In Manual Fluoroscopy mode (without x-rays), adjust the potentiometer OFC01-P2 to read between OFC01-
Tp3 (+) and OFC01-Tp4 (GND), a voltage equal to the value read in “point A”.
In Manual Fluoroscopy mode (without x-rays), enter Setup mode (code 1001), on the board OFC01 the led Ld1
(yellow) lights up, adjust the potentiometer OFC01-P1 to read between OFC01-Tp3 (+) and OFC01-Tp4

According to the unit configuration, there is the collision hazard between monobloc and front leg (video
systems 0,5Kx0,5K) and between intensifier and front leg (video system 1Kx1K). For this reason the
position of the limit switch FC DW A is differentiated between the two systems. The position of the other
limit switches and the total safeties remains unchanged.
The intervention of the total safety is 8mm beyond the rate of the FC UP and FC DW B micros limit
switches.

6. SERVICE MODE
6.1. What is the SERVICE MODE?
The SERVICE MODE (SM) is a special menu procedure that can be activated only by the
Service staff. This procedure is necessary to set the working parameters and to ease the whole
diagnostic phase as well as the faults finding. Almost all these operations can be performed with
closed cover. This allows an easy operation and, specially, with an optimal safety level.
6.2. Activation/deactivation of the SERVICE MODE
In order to enter SERVICE MODE it is necessary to enter UTILITY MODE (§5), choose the SM
mode through the SERVICE MODE key.
SERVICE MODE is divided into four parts:

- touch-screen calibration (§6.3)
- collimator positions (§6.4)
- unit data setting (§6.5)
- software updating of CSC board (§6.6)
In order to enter every single mode, it is necessary to insert the relative password and confirm
with the key “OK”.
If the password introduced is not correct, the display returns to the previous screen.
[File: 206698-03-20.doc] Page 13/56

6.3. Touch-screen calibration
For the Touch screen calibration it’s necessary to use a keyboard with USB port.
By a small screwdriver remove the protection cap.

By a flat screwdriver, unscrew the screw below and remove the protection cover.
Connect the keyboard to the USB connector, showed in figure.
Turn on the unit.
The password to enter this function is:

“0709”
After password confirmation, it’s displayed another confirmation request
Page 14/56 [File: 206698-03-20.doc]

After confirmation, it will appear the following display, with the only cross of reference placed in
the center of display.
By a sharpened object (for ex. a pen), touch the screen in correspondence of the cross center.
Each time you touch the cross center, the reference will move in the next position, following the
diagram reported below.
At the end, in the display center it will appear the confirmation request for calibration
acknowledgement.
Press ENTER on the keyboard to confirm new settings or ESC to cancel.
Turn off the unit and remove the keyboard.
[File: 206698-03-20.doc] Page 15/56

6.4. Collimator positions set
The password to enter this function is:

“1001”
After inserting and confirming it, the Automatic Fluoroscopy screen reappears.
Box concerning the dosimeter is replaced by SERVICE symbol, while the key for Radiography
mode selection is replaced by EXIT symbol.
The unit works in all its features in Fluoroscopy mode. In this phase it is possible to perform
exposures in fluoroscopy and move the collimator iris in all the possible enlargements. At every
movement, the position reached by the iris is stored.
It is so possible to check in real time the collimator functionality.
In order to exit from the function, press the key “EXIT” on the touch screen and confirm or reject
the saving of the new settings.

6.9.1. TUBE CALIBRATION

The anodic current (mA) that checks the intensity of the radiation emitted by the tube is controlled
indirectly by the filament current.
The relationship between the filament current and the anodic current is given by the tube emission
curves. As, for constructive reasons, the tolerance on the filament current that gives a fixed anodic
current is large, these curves can be used as initial settings, but they cannot replace an individual tube
calibration.
Purpose of the “Tube Calibration” procedure is to adjust the anodic current values to the filament current
ones so that the data in output from the tube correspond to the data set by the operator.
The microcomputer, the board of the filament power supply, the inverter and the monobloc are
interested to the calibration procedure.
If during the calibration procedure, an error intervenes or the power supply is missing, the whole
procedure of calibration must be repeated fully.
When is it necessary to perform the calibration?
The tube calibration is performed in factory and it is not necessary to perform it again during the unit
installation.
It is necessary to proceed with the tube calibration when on the unit one or more of the following
components are replaced:
 monobloc
 inverter
 supply board of the filament
Even a possible permanent variation of dose, due to a frequent use of the unit could be compensated by
performing a new calibration.
A well-performed calibration allows to the unit to work properly and it protects the tube from overloads by
making its life longer.
Never perform x-rays with unknown ignition values of the filament.
[File: 206698-03-20.doc] Page 39/56

The reading of the anodic current (anodic mA) is performed with a double channel storage
oscilloscope. The oscilloscope must be set in the following way
time base: 2ms

vertical scanning: 1V/cm
kV reading (20kV/cm):
probe Ch1 B11-Tp1
0V B11-GND
mA reading (50mA/cm):
probe Ch2 B11-Tp8
0V B11-GND
B11 board
In order to perform the tube calibration procedure refer to chapt. 4 – Adjustments at paragraph 2.2.
“Adjustments of stationary / rotating anode unit”.
