Overview 1
ICS + IRS = Navigator

In standard configuration, the ICS is the main console for interchangeable scanning and
imaging functions. The IRS is equipped with four computers as well as switchable key-
board, mouse and monitor.
IES = Wizard
The IES console may be installed in parallel to the main operator ICS console via a
shared database link. The IES is used as a second console for postprocessing applica-
tions.
NOTICE The Wizard (IES) can run only when the ICS is switched on; if the
ICS is switched off, the shared database cannot be accessed.
Software not approved by Siemens 1
Warning Unauthorized or incorrect operation or changes to software can

cause malfunctions in your system. This can result in injuries or
system defects. For this reason, the use or installation of software
not approved by Siemens is strictly prohibited.
Software kit VA47 for Navigator, IRS and Wizard 1
The software installation kit for SOMATOM systems is included in the delivery volume.
Note The CD SOMARIS/5 VA47B (A) includes the software for installa-
tion of both the Navigator (ICS) and the Wizard (IES).
Backup media 1
The standard backup device for Navigator and for the Wizard is the CD-Writer (drive [-R-]
CD-R). Alternatively, the MOD may be used, if available.
• Make sure a separate backup media (e.g. "CD Recordable") is on hand for both the
Navigator and the Wizard (if available).

Configuration of CD-R Write mode 2
The setting for the optional single session mode for CD-R burning is not contained in the
backup. The single session mode has to be configured explicitly after each SW installa-
tion; otherwise, the multi-session mode is configured by default.
Check the entry in the Windows NT registry for the current settting.
• From the <Start> button menu, select Run and type in regedit.
• In the registry path select
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Siemens\MedCom\Config\Modality\
archnet_common\CDR_MULTISESSION_FLAG\V1
Check the parameter V1; a value = 1 indicates a multi-session mode.
If the value V1 = 0, the single session mode is set.
CD-R Write mode Multi-session mode (standard)

Installation running 2
From now on, the ICS installation runs automatically. No user action regarding ICS instal-
lation is required.
Note P10 only!

While the installation is running, you may start the installation of
IRS, if necessary (refer to chapter 3).
Note You may now continue with the software installation on the Wiz-
ard, if necessary (refer to page 4-4).
Completion of ICS/IRS installation (approx. 75 minutes) is indicated by a pop-up window

with the message Please enter license.
Note You can reduce the installation time to approx. 60 min. by cancel-
ing the memory check by pressing ESC during startup.
• Click ’Click here to start the Local Service Configuration’ to start the service software
(complete service license required).

Restore Steps 2
1. Restore 1: restore all groups of SW settings except User Settings and Service/
Database/DBOffset and all groups of CT scanner settings except IRS.
2. Reconnect the network cable and restart the Navigator.
3. Restore 2: restore the IRS tables and the User Settings.
Notice After Restore 1, the ICS and IRS synchronizes and the IRS
"default tables" are automatically transferred from the ICS to the
IRS. With Restore 2, the "site-specific tune-up tables" are
restored to the IRS.
If you install the IRS software, wait until the IRS installation fin-
ishes and ensure that the IRS is ready before performing the sub-
sequent steps.
