ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVXY

Revision level
in this case: E

BI1202-I 1-11
General Information 1202 Flex Focus

The Part number of the board, for example ZD0790, is the order number of the board.
The number is changed if the modification of the existing PCB is found to be too
extensive.

The serial number of the board is a unique number used for tracking purposes.

The revision code (ABCDEFGH.......) is related to the modifications made on the board.
The revision letter is marked when modifications are made. When boards are ordered
from the B-K Medical stock it is important that the serial number of the scanner is stated.
The serial number ensures that the correct revision is shipped.

The PCB version (number e.g. 3) is printed on the circuit board.

The Version and Revision code can be read electronically.

Note! Some modules (assemblies) that consist of a number of PCB’s does only have a
Part No. and a serial number but no revision. E.g. Core board assembly - ZN1221
consists of ZD0790, ZD0799 and ZD0797.

1202 Flex Focus General Information

6 Software Information
The purpose of this section is to give a brief introduction to the basic software functions, test facilities, and tools.
6.1 License Keys

The software options on the scanner are controlled by a license enabling a specific option. The
license(s) are kept in a file on the hard disk. The license combined with the Scanner Identity which
is a unique number for each scanner opens up for the option so a specific license will only work on
one scanner. The license(s) and Scanner Identity can be found under Customize - System -
License.

00-00-01-89-12-34

The scanner identification is the serial number programmed into the Core board. If replacing a Core
board in a scanner, the new Scanner Identification has been preprogrammed from the factory -
otherwise a reprogramming is necessary.

If installing a hard disk from another scanner, then the license will be inactive because the scanner
Identification does not match. In that case the licenses must be changed using the license(s) from
the first scanner which must be entered manually. When entering the license manually then the file
C:\LBK.BIN must be deleted first. Licenses cannot be entered on a system which has one or more
invalid licenses in the LBK.BIN file.

If the LBK.BIN file contains an invalid license, then all licenses will become invalid and the scanner
will behave as a Flex Focus 200 (1202-2) without any options enabled.

Note! The “Delete License” is only for demo licenses and not functional on permanent licenses.

6.3 Service Mode


The operative system of the 1202 is Windows Embedded 2009. Windows Embedded 2009 is a
componentized version of Windows XP Professional that contains all of the features, functionality,
and familiarity of Windows XP Professional. In our case this means that all not needed software,
device drivers and other files are removed. This also means that support for non-generic USB
storage keys, USB hard disks, and USB CD/DVD drive is non-existing. The way Windows XP
Embedded is build makes is impossible to install a specific driver after the scanner has left the
factory.

In this new environment, the usual Windows Desktop has been replaced by the B-K Medical
Ultrasound application: Console. This way there is no Windows Desktop behind the application.
This is done to prevent unauthorized access.

When we want to get behind the console application, and access to Windows, we must switch to
Service Mode. In service mode, the console-based desktop is replaced by a service menu.

Service mode is activated if you want to:

 Check of Hard Disk/file system


 Access Windows Explorer
 and other service related issues

6.3.1 Enter Service Mode

1. Start up the scanner and wait for complete boot-up

2. Press ALT + X (if you do not see the below dialog then first click anywhere at the Ultrasound
image field and then press ALT + X)

3. Enter password: viking

4. The scanner will then turn OFF

5. Turn on the scanner and wait for it to boot up in service mode


(A Windows desktop will appear)

General Information 1202 Flex Focus

6.4.3 Console
This is the main software directory. There are 10 subdirectories which all require a short
presentation. In the console directory, you find the important console.ini file, which is the software
configuration file.

Bodymarks

Each of the body marks is represented by an image file. The default naming policy is
bodym_<number>.bmp (fx. Bodym_001.bmp). If you find any files which do not follow the above
rule, they are custom made. In case of file rescuing these might be needed.

CasaWare

This directory includes supporting software for the console application.

Codec\Lagarith

In this directory, you can the find the Lagarith Codec. This codec is used in the Cine clips. First time
you want to view a clip on a PC, you must install the codec. This directory is copied to the CD every
time you copy exams (depending on your configuration.)

Database

This is a very important directory, as (almost) all databases are stored here.

The main database is 1202_XXX.mdb. (Where XXX refers to the configuration of the scanner
depending on the installed licenses)

Then there is the backup of this file: 1202_XXX_backup.mdb.


PatientDB.mdb is blank copy of the patient database.

The sub directory org contains an empty 1202_XXX.mdb

Documentation

This is not used.

Report

Files needed to create a report printout are stored here.

StagingArea

This is the staging area directory. All exams that have been ordered to burn on a CD/DVD will be
here until the CD/DVD has been burned. Then this directory will be empty. If you have something in
this directory, each time the console application starts you will see a message about it.

Dicom

This directory stores both the Dicom program files as well as links to documents that are being sent
to a Dicom device.

6.4.4 Directory Structure of hard disk (Q-drive)

Q-drive is used to save patient data in the Documentation folder.

6.4.5 XPE_Backup

This directory is important after software upgrade. If you make a clean installation, this directory is
not used. Inside this directory, a collection of different files can be found. These are copied from
different places on the hard disk. Here is the directory listening:

Troubleshooting 1202 Flex Focus

4.1. Introduction
This chapter is divided into three separate subsections. The first section describes general
troubleshooting forwarding the reader to the right guide in the two following sections Software
Guides and Hardware Guides. The troubleshooting subsections might give you, if not the
solution, then some ideas of how to troubleshoot this particular problem of yours.

To prevent injury to persons and damage to the 1202 be aware of the following:

WARNINGs:

* Opening the Keyboard dock and Power Supply can expose live parts.

* Any work done on the open instrument with power On must only be done by B-K Medical or
their authorized representatives, who are aware of the hazards involved.

* Any repair work done on the 1202 must be followed by an electrical safety test to verify a
continuous safe operation of the system.

* The Core board contains a lithium battery. The battery must only be replaced by a person
having special knowledge as described in sec. 4.2 Replaceable Parts

CAUTIONs:

* Switch Off the 1202 before connecting or disconnecting the Flex Focus to any peripheral units.
Failure to do so could damage the equipment.

* The PC Boards in the 1202 are sensitive for static discharge. Therefore, when handling PC
Boards always take steps to prevent static discharge - see chapter 1 section 5 Special Tools and
Equipment.

4.2. Troubleshoot Specific Problems (Hints)

4.2.1. Transducer or scanner?

 First of all: Try another transducer!


 Try the other Array Input Connector
 If possible, connect a single-element transducer

Radial or Vertical lines

The problem is most likely caused by the Front-end or the transducer.

Noise pattern in the B-image

A noise pattern in the far field is often caused by external noise entering the scanner through the
air or via the mains cable. To isolate the problem check/try the following:

 Connect the scanner to another mains outlet, preferably in another room. A change in the
noise pattern indicates noise on the mains.
 Check that the wall outlet has a proper grounding.
 Compare different transducer types and frequencies. External noise is often frequency
specific.

Note: Before contacting the support group in Denmark for help with noise problems it is recommended
that you try out the suggestions above. Use the image storage facility of the 1202 to save a
couple of images showing the problems. The images can be attached to an e-mail.

4-2 BI1202-I
1202 Flex Focus Troubleshooting & Guides

4.2.2. License based functions does not work


First check the time and date on the scanner. If the clock has been reset the licenses will often
become nonfunctional even though they are listed as valid in the license window. If a new
license has been entered and the clock changed shortly after it may also become nonfunctional.

Go to the License window and check that all licenses entered are listed as valid.

00-00-01-89-12-34

4.2.3. Loss of time


If you remove the ETX board from the Core board, the time settings will be lost. The same is the
case, if you remove the lithium battery on the Core board.

Check the voltage lithium battery on the Core board (also check for bad contact).

4.2.4. IQ Pack not active (ETD and ACI not present)


If the IQ Pack ETD and ACI is not functioning (i.e. not present in the Image - Advanced menu)

Then check that the Flex Focus license is installed and that the PMC module is registered as
installed (Customize - System - Version)

PMC module registred


as installed

BI1202-I 4-3

4.3. Software Guides


This section is dedicated to guide the user how to solve a variety of software related issues.

4.3.1. Log Files


The log files are a collection of files which are saved when clicking Export in the Version tab
(Customize - System - Version)

There are three log file levels available in the Export dialog: Normal, Full, and Debug.
BK HQ recommend ”Full” level in
order to analyze a fault. When zipped
this level of logs can be attached to an
email.

In very few special cases the “Debug”


level can be used by SW developers
to bring light on specific scenarios.

In addition to the logs it is strongly


recommended to describe the
symptoms and the user scenario in the
field “Comment/ Description”.

4.3.1.1. How to Grab the Log Files


When reporting errors to the BK HQ providing the log files can be very helpful. The log files can
be very long therefor when submitting the log files to HQ please include the time and date for
the error if this information is available.

11. A folder will be created on your USB Flash Key: Logs_<Date>_<Time>. In this folder, a
number of files will be copied. Attach all these files to a mail and send to
support@bkultrasound.com.

4.3.2. How to Calibrate/Adjust Flat Panel


The Flat Panel of the scanner has been calibrated at the factory using a special LCD color
analyzer. The calibration consists of a color calibration and setting of the Backlight, both are
system specific. A non-calibrated system will in most cases give the following messages when
starting up the scanner:

Error message when the Error message when the


CasaHW_Config.ini file is missing. 1202_1.icm file is missing.

A Backup of the calibration files (1202_1.icm) are saved on the S: drive (Service partition of the
hard disk) and also on the license CD that comes with every system. ICM files for the specific
scanner can also be downloaded from the service website.
In case of poor image quality: Check that the calibration file on the S: drive matches the file
used by Windows.

4.3.3. How to Check Disk


Check disk is the program that verifies the logical integrity of a file system on Windows. When
Check Disk encounters logical inconsistencies it does not take actions to repair file system data,
but let you know that there is problem:

Errors found. CHKDSK cannot continue in read-only mode.

1. The Check Disk will run automatically in a command prompt box. You are not supposed to
enter anything. When the scandisk has completed, you see this output.

Run CHKDSK with /F (fix) option to correct these.

Then you open a command prompt and run: c:\chkdsk /f c:


This will ask you to reboot so close all open applications and reboot scanner
If you run check disk again, the problem should be gone.

4.3.4. How to Fragment Disk


Analyzing and defragmenting disk volumes can help to preserve the performance and general
operation of the system. File fragmentation can negatively affect operating system speed and
performance. To maintain peak performance when using Windows XP the condition of your
disks should be analyzed on a regular basis - preferably once a year - and defragmentation
performed as needed.

Note: Prior to running Defrag, you should run a Check Disk to correct any drive errors.
Note: Please do not touch anything running this test as it may disturb the process.

Because defragmenting a disk volume can take a long time (depending on the size of the
volume, the number of files, the percentage of fragmentation, and the availability of system
resources) you should analyze volumes before defragmenting them to decide whether or not it
is worthwhile to take the time to run the defragmentation process.

How to Analyze a Disk Volume


To check for fragmented files and folders on a volume:

1. Click the volume that you want to analyze.

2. Click Analyze to begin the analysis.

3. Review the results of the analysis after it is complete by clicking View Report. If the analysis
tool recommends that the volume be defragmented follow the steps in the next section.

How to Defragment a Disk Volume


1. Click the volume that you want to defragment.

2. Click Defragment to begin the operation.

3. Review the progress of the operation in the Defragmentation Display window. Fragmented
files on the disk appear in red, contiguous files are blue, and system files are green. The
goal is to eliminate most of the red in this window.

1202 Flex Focus Troubleshooting & Guides

4.3.5. Event Viewer


Event Viewer is the first place to look in for information when you are troubleshooting any
problem with your computer. It is used to view events and manage them. There are three
categories of events: System, Application, and Security events.

The System Log records events related to Windows XP system components such as failure of a
driver or other system components to load during start up. Usually at start up there is a warning
message indicating that a driver or other system component failed, check Event Viewer for more
details.

The Application Log records events logged by applications, such as errors generated by certain
applications.

The Security Log records events related to system security. This helps track changes or
attempts to break system security.

1. Left click on Event Viewer and select a log to view. The log will appear in the right hand
pane.

2. If you want to look at an event, double click on it. A dialog box will open showing information
about what caused the error.

3. You can navigate from error to error in the same log by clicking the up and down arrows.

4. If you need to record an error so you can email it to technical support, click on the button
right below the down arrow. This will copy the error to the clipboard. It is now available to be
pasted into a text file, you can send to Support at B-K Medical.

5. Close the dialog box when you are done reviewing the event log.

Event Viewer displays these types of events:

Error: A significant problem, such as loss of data or loss of functionality. For example, if a
service fails to load during start-up, an error will be logged.

Warning: An event that is not necessarily significant, but may indicate a possible future problem.
For example, when disk space is low, a warning will be logged.

Information: An event that describes the successful operation of an application, driver, or


service. For example, when a network driver loads successfully, an Information event will be
logged.

BI1202-I 4-7
Troubleshooting 1202 Flex Focus

Success Audit: An audited security access attempt that succeeds. For example, a user's
successful attempt to log on to the system will be logged as a Success Audit event.

Failure Audit: An audited security access attempt that fails. For example, if a user tries to
access a network drive and fails, the attempt will be logged as a Failure Audit event.

Note: Event Viewer is a part of Microsoft Windows XP. Further help can be gained using the Event
Viewers built-in help.

4.3.8. How to Adjust Video Output on 1202 Flex Focus.

In Flex Focus there is one analog s-video output and one digital video output. These outputs are
default disabled and if you want to use them, they must be configured and thus enabled. We will
now look upon how to configure the outputs and finally how this looks on the external hardware.

NOTE: Flex Focus 200 does not have this feature.


NOTE: The scanner must have ZD0793 mounted. Otherwise you need an external adapter
UA1311

First of all, you need to examine your external hardware to find out how the cable and how the
connector looks like. Then you must find the desired output on the scanner. Finally, you must
make sure you can make the physical connection using the appropriate cable and eventually
any adaptors.

The configuration on the scanner is quite simple and does not distinguish between the outputs.
(A good point to note here is that the console software will enable the outputs, so if you start in

BI1202-I 4-17
Troubleshooting 1202 Flex Focus

service mode, make sure you start console software to enable the outputs and then you are free
to close the console software as the outputs will remain enabled.) There will be the same view
on both the analog and the digital output.

It is important to know that if you do not use the video output feature in daily routine, it is better
to keep it switched off. When the video output feature is enabled, it may consume CPU/RAM
resources.

1. Click on Image tab (bottom left) so you can see the button area.

2. Click on Advanced button. A “Customize…” button will appear.

3. Click on Customize… button

4. Click on System tab

5. Click on Video I/O tab

Here you can configure and thereby enable the outputs.


At this point you have 3 options for the Video Output Mode:

I. OFF (default)
The video outputs are disabled.

II. Passive Display


This view will give you a big picture on the outputs, but what you see on the output is not
100% the same as what you see on screen. Of course the Ultra Sound image is the
same. The resolution of the video output is 1024 x 768.

There are two additional settings that can be changed.


Font Size: This is the size of the text font
Color Mode: Switch
between
B&W and
color mode
here.

III. Cloned Display

4-18 BI1202-I
1202 Flex Focus Troubleshooting & Guides

This view will give you an exact copy of everything you see on the scanner monitor. The
signal on the video output is rotated 90° and it is not possible to adjust this on the
scanner side. The output will be in aspect ratio 4:5, so you need to adjust your external
equipment for that ratio. Otherwise, the image on the external equipment will be pixilated.
The resolution on the internal monitor is 1024x1280. The standard is however
1280x1024, but as we have rotated the monitor 270°, thus this difference.

6. Click Apply

7. Restart the scanner to activate the choice.

In chapter 9 you can find the different cables/combinations that you can use with this solution.

4.3.9. IQPAC™: ACI & ETD setup demystified

IQPAC™ is the name of the BK image quality package that features two new technologies,
Enhanced Tissue Definition (ETD) and Angular Compound Imaging (ACI). ETD and ACI work
independently but they have the greatest impact on image quality when used in combination.
IQPAC is a trademark of BK Medical. Read more in Sales Note no. 136

Angular Compound Imaging – ACI


Angular Compound Imaging is a result of combining images made at up to 5 different angles
into one compound image. This also reduces speckle and optimizes the ultrasound image.

Enhanced Tissue Definition – ETD


With ETD, an automatic speckle suppression algorithm continuously analyses the ultrasound
image for irregularities and adjusts the smoothness to be applied. This reduces speckle and
optimizes the ultrasound image. ETD supports all array transducers (mechanical transducers
are not supported). ETD can be set at 5 different levels ranging from subtle speckle reduction
(level 1) to strong reduction (level 5). The default level is 3, level 0 turns ETD off.

Now before we start, first point to note is that IQPAC™ is only available in the Ultra View
scanner in the 2202 scanner family and 1202 Flex Focus scanner.

4.3.9.1. How to Examine if IQPAC™ is enabled

6. Save and close the file

7. Switch to console mode.

4.3.9.3. Usage of IQPAC™:


First source of information should be the user’s guide. Also Sales Note no 136 can be
recommended to give a quick introduction. Finally ask your contact person about it, if more info
is needed.
IQPAC™ Enabled IQPAC™ Disabled

c:\casaengine\casaconfig\casahw_config.ini does not exist:

If you have just done a fresh software installation of the scanner following the installation guide
then your previous copy of casahw_config.ini file will be in c:\xpe_backup folder. From here you
can copy it to the correct location: c:\casaengine\casaconfig folder

If you made an upgrade and ran the User Data Transfer tool then it may be done automatically.

Finally, if you cannot find it anywhere a generic copy of the file is located in the
c:\casaengine\casaconfig folder. It is called __casahw_config.ini. You have to rename this to

4.3.10. HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act)


The American Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) requires
security and privacy of health information. The Privacy Rule is a US federal regulation defining
administrative steps, policies, and procedures to safeguard individuals' personal, private health
information (protected health information or PHI). The Privacy Rule is designed to empower
patients by guaranteeing them access to their medical records, giving them more control over
how their PHI is used and disclosed, and providing a clear avenue of recourse if their medical
privacy is compromised. The rule is designed to protect medical records and other personal
health information maintained by certain health care providers, hospitals, health plans, health
insurers, and health care clearinghouses.

The rule defines "protected health information" as health information that:


1. identifies an individual and
2. is maintained or exchanged electronically or in hard copy.

If the information has any components that could be used to identify a person, it would be
protected. The protection would stay with the information as long as the information is in the
hands of a covered entity or a business associate. The protections apply to individually
identifiable information in any form, electronic or non-electronic. The paper progeny of
electronic information is covered (i.e. the information would not lose its protections simply
because it is printed out of a computer), and oral communications are also covered.

4.3.13. How to Recover from a Crashed Main Database

Console software saves different kind of information in different databases.

The main database (1202.mdb) is located in the c:\console\database directory.

Databases can crash independently. This mean that you can have a working patient database while
you main database is corrupt, so it might be helpful if you start with one database at a time.

If you start a scanner and you get an error message with either the word “database” or “jet”, the main
database has crashed. Examine the c:\console\database directory in service mode and if you find
lock-file 1202.ldb, you must delete it. You can now recover the scanner by copying an empty
database from c:\console\database\org to c:\console\database. All settings are now lost, except
DICOM settings.

Note: If you are able to start scanner and are able to make a “restore to factory” then the effect
would be the same as the above.

4.3.14. How to Recover Patient Database from a Crashed System

The patient database (PatientDB.mdb) is located in the q:\documentation directory.

If you experience problems with the archiving system, it could be a corrupt patient database. You
can recover the scanner by copying an empty database from c:\console\database to
q:\documentation. But by doing this all files in the q:\documentation directory can not be accessed
from the console software any more. The solution is this case is to copy all files to CD’s or DVD’s,
and then access them from the archiving system.

4.3.14.1.Patient Database Recovery tool

There is a slight chance for you to


recover some part of the patient
database if you have a archive CD’s. On
the latest archive CD, find the patient
database. This patient database can be
used to recover. But it must be
converted first:

1. Bring scanner to service mode.


The console application MUST
NOT be running.

2. Double Click on c:\Console\


PatientDbRecovery.exe.

3. Change the Documentation Path to Q:\Documentation

4. Click on Start.

5. Click on OK.

6. Double click on Start Console on the desktop/or


start desktop from the Scanner service menu.

7. Click on View Archive and see if you can find the patients in the record.

Only patients with scans on the hard disk will be found now. All patients you have archived and
deleted from the hard disk will not be in the recovered patient database. Finally all scans after
the time, the archive CD was created, must be copied to a CD/DVD, as they will not be
reachable from the console software.
4-26 BI1202-I
1202 Flex Focus Troubleshooting & Guides

4.3.15. How to Configure Scanner to Use an External Hard Disk to Save Scans Instead of the
Internal

Many situations demand that you use an external hard disk on the scanner. The support for
external hard disk exists already. You can use the external hard disk as an extended USB Flash
key to save scans on the hard disk.

On the hard disk scans (2D / 3D / cine) are stored in this directory: Q:\documentation. This
folder also contains a patient database (PatientDB.mdb). The database is vital for the archive
system to work, as it contains information about patients that have been entered manually or
fetched from a Dicom worklist. This patient database also has the links for each of the image-
files from the documentation directory. This link is a hard link, which means that the link
consists of the partition data, directory data, and file name data. A link could look like this:
q:\documentation\20051114_142222_NoID.bmp. The database is a Microsoft Access database
and it has been password protected, so unauthorized access can be prohibited. When the
console software is running you will be able to see an additional file in the patient database:
PatientDB.ldb. This file is a lock-file for the PatientDB.mdb-file. When the console software is
running, you will not be able to copy or view the PatientDB.mdb-file, because of the lock file.
When you examine the directory in service mode you may not find this lock-file anymore, but if
you do, you can delete it if needed. Next time the console application is started, a new lock file
will then be generated.

Finally there is a backup of the PatientDB.mdb in the directory as well, but at time being it is
useless. If your PatientDB.mdb has crashed, the backup has been damaged as well. (We are
looking into this).

The standard solution when you use the external hard disk as an extended USB flash key does
not save the patient database on the hard disk. The tweak below makes it possible to save the
patient database to the external hard disk as well. More precisely this tweak will make the
q:\documentation directory almost obsolete. Here is the procedure how to get it to work. (If you
are not sure about what you are doing, please do not continue. A mistake could make the
scanner unstable.) Your external hard disk has been partitioned (NTFS) and formatted before
you plug it into the scanner. Only external hard disk types supported by the scanner will work.

1. Bring the scanner into service mode

2. Connect you external hard disk and wait for approximately 2 min.

3. Right click on My Computer and select Manage

4. Click on Disk Management

5. Examine in the right side on the


window that the external hard
disk has been found. If you do
not see the external hard disk
either it’s not working properly or
it’s not supported. Do not
continue if you do not find your
external hard disk in the window.

6. Make sure that the DVD drive


has drive letter D.

Now select your external hard


disk and make sure that it does

BI1202-I 4-27
Troubleshooting 1202 Flex Focus

not have any of these drive letters: A, B, C, D, E, Q or S. (E is reserved for the USB flash
key, so even if the USB flash key is not connected, we still want to keep the reservation.)

7. Exit Disk Management

8. Double click on explorer

9. Navigate to your external hard disk

10. Make a directory (fx Documentation). (You can use the root of you external hard disk, as
this will not work).

11. Navigate to the c:\console directory

12. Make a backup of the console.ini file

13. Edit the console.ini file

14. Find this section: [Paths]

15. Make a new line just below


this line: ;;;;Path for
documentation directory

16. Write this in the new blank


line:
DocumentationDirPath=<d
rive letter>:\<directory> (In
my case I wrote:
DocumentationDirPath=F:\D
ocumentation, as my
external hard disk had drive
letter F, and my directory
was called Documentation.)

17. Save console.ini

18. Start console (from service


mode)

19. Create a test patient and


save a couple of images

20. Switch back to explorer and


examine that you find the
scans and the patient database on your external hard disk.

Default behavior for console software is that it would look in the console.ini file for the
documentation paths. First it will look DocumentationDirPath, if this is not available, scanner
will not start up.

First we need to know if the PC is member of a domain or it is a standalone PC. This is actually a
very easy task. Basic step for a Microsoft
Windows XP:

1. Click Start, Settings and then Control


Panel

2. Click on System

3. Click on Computer Name tab

First of all, note the computer name. In this


example b1016 will do.

Then note if the PC is member of domain or


workgroup. In this example the PC is
member of domain bkmed. If it was member
of a workgroup, then it would say Workgroup
here:

Configuration of Microsoft Windows-based


PC is a very big topic. Bottom-line is that we
need a shared folder on the hard drive,
where scanner can save files.

Basic step for a Microsoft Windows XP:

1. Start Explorer

2. Create a folder on your hard drive.


Make sure you have enough space.

3. Right click on the folder and select


Sharing and security…

4. Select Share this folder

5. Enter a Share name as the field will


now be available.

6. Click on Permissions as the button is


also available now.

7. Make sure the user have Change rights.

Troubleshooting 1202 Flex Focus

Configure Network

You can connect the Microsoft Windows-based PC and the scanner a different way. It is not the
scope of this document to cover that. The main idea is that you need to configure network for
the Microsoft Windows-based PC first. Then configure network on the scanner. This can be
done by entering Service mode, if DICOM is not available on the scanner. Just make sure the
network connection between the scanner and the PC is working.

Configure Scanner

Click on Customize, System, and then Network Drive.

Enter the UNC path in the field. The UNC path is the path to the folder you created in the first
step. So if your PC has this IP Address: 192.168.1.10 and the folder name is 2202 then you
enter this: \\192.168.1.10\2202

Now enter username and password for the user that is allowed to save files in the folder created
in the first step. If you are member of a Domain you may have to write the username like this:
Domain\username. (eg bkmed\sla, where bkmed is our domain name and sla is the username.)
If you are using a cross cable to connect the PC with the scanner, you should use the computer
name. (For instance my PC is b1016, so in this case I would use b1016\sla.)

Click on Test Connection to test the connection.

A success full test looks like this:

4.4.2. How to Interpret/Translate the LEDs in the back of the scanner

Through the grid in the back on the scanner you can see some LEDs. These LEDs indicate the
actual status of the core board and voltages present on the core board. They depend on which
mode the scanner is in.

In the extreme left side, you find following LEDs:

Core board version 2 D28 D27 D26 D25


power cord removed OFF OFF OFF OFF
power cord connected OFF OFF OFF OFF
started / service mode OFF OFF OFF OFF
started / console mode OFF OFF ON ON

Core board version 3 D28 D27 D26 D25 D16 D17 D18 D15 D21 D46 D45 D19 D35

Pushing S1 will restart the PC. However, the screen will remain black.
Pushing S2 will program the HiSec chip and a reboot is needed
Pushing S4 will reset AVR and you will see that D37 and D8 are reset

Pushing the buttons will not fix anything, so the information is just to see if you can get a
reaction from the board or not.

4.4.3. How to Chang the Core board / Core board Assembly

The Core board has been programmed with the serial number of the scanner so if the Core
board is changed with a new one or swapped with one from another system it may be
necessarily to reprogram the Core board. For reprogramming a unique code is necessary for
each serial number this can be achieved by contacting the service department of B-K Medical.

1. Check that the Time Zone and System Clock are correct - change if necessary

2. Check the programmed serial number of the system (License ID):


Image - Advanced On - Customize - System – Version.

The license ID is the


serial number of the
system with five 0 in front

3. If the License ID has to be changed you need to go into service mode.

Adjustment Procedure 1202 Flex Focus

5.1. Introduction
All of the adjustable components in the 1202 are factory adjusted and need no further
adjustment. Do not attempt to make other adjustments than stated in this chapter.

5.2. Trackball Friction Adjustment

The trackball should move smoothly. If it is too tight or too loose it can be adjusted using the
adjusting tool (QA0228) which is delivered with the system. Turn clockwise to tighten and
counter clockwise to loosen the trackball. The trackball can be removed completely for cleaning.

5.3. Monitor brightness

The brightness of the monitor can be adjusted by pressing Ctrl + ↑ or Ctrl + ↓. To reset to
factory setup press Ctrl + D

5-2 BI1202-I
1202 Flex Focus Adjustment Procedure

5.4. Touch Screen Adjustment and Calibration

The Touch Screen setup dialog is found under


Start – Program - UPDD – Settings

1. Select the “Hardware” menu item.

2. Click on Handling Monitor 1


desktop.

3. Make sure Monitor 1 is sat. Click on


OK.

4. Select “Firmware options”.

 Set Coarse sensitivity to “Option2 (3


- 6mm)”.

 Set “Threshold” to 38.

 Press “Force Equalisation” to


calibrate the touch sensors. It is
important that nothing is touching
the touch screen while you do this!

5. Select “Test Sensor”

BI1202-I 5-3
Adjustment Procedure 1202 Flex Focus

Verify that when nothing is touching


the screen, there are only minimal
response on the “X Wires” and “Y
Wires”.

Verify that when moving the finger


around the screen, the response on
the “X Wires” and “Y Wires” look
normal.

If any of the responses look strange,


you can try to do “Sensor
Equalisation” again.

Check for “dead wires”: move you


finger slowly from the right edge of
the screen to the left. Check that each
of the wires grow to a maximum as
you pass them. Verify that you can
activate all the wires and that no wire
has a very low maximum (indicates a
“dead wire”). Note that it is normal that the wires in the middle of the screen are somewhat more
sensitive than the wires on the edges.

For the touch sensor to operate normally, there must be at least one wire with a signal above
the “Threshold” at all times when the finger touches the screen.

Check for “dead wires” in the other direction: move your finger slowly from the top edge to the
bottom, while watching the output of the wires.

6. Click on Close to end the “Sensor


Test”

7. Click on OK to close the “Firmware


Settings”

8. Click on Click Mode.

 Select the click mode to be “Click


and drag”.

 Select “Silent touch”

9. Select the “Properties” menu item.

 Set “Low pass filter” to 0


 Set “Liftoff time” to 2
 Set “Stabilization” to 10
 Set “Averaging” to 2
 Uncheck “Use lift-off packet”
 Uncheck “Anchor mouse”
 Check “Enabled”
 Set “Mode” to “Interlock”
 Set “Release Time” to 5

5-4 BI1202-I
1202 Flex Focus Adjustment Procedure

10. Select the “Calibration” menu item


.

 Set “Number of points” to 25.

11. Click on “Calibrate”

The calibration is done by pressing


25 points on the screen one by one.
It is important that you take a position
in front of the screen while you do
this, which matches the position that
the scanner will be used in. E.g. if the
scanner will be used standing up
directly in front of it, you should be
standing up directly in front of the
scanner while doing the calibration.

Also take care to press the points as


you would when using the scanner
normally. Don’t consciously press
above or below the points. Press as
you would normally do when trying to
hit a point on the screen.

Also be careful that only your finger


is close to the screen. Don’t let the
rest of your hand get close, as this
might interfere with the touch
sensors.

When the calibration is done, press


the button that appears in the center
in order to confirm the calibration.

12. Click on Close.

13. After a calibration has been done, it should be verified. A number of things can go wrong during
a calibration.

- The other hand was leaning on the edge of the screen.


- The hand or arm of the finger doing the calibration got too close to the screen.
- The finger clicking the screen approached the screen or lifted off the screen while moving to
the side.
- One or more finger presses might not be accurate.

BI1202-I 5-5
Adjustment Procedure 1202 Flex Focus

14. To verify the calibration, start the


touch test tool by selecting the
“Status” menu item

15. Click on “Show test grid”.

16. The test tool will open, displaying a large grid window. In the toolbar at the top, press the
expand button:

17. The grid will now fill the whole screen. To test the calibration, draw straight horizontal and
vertical lines, while trying to follow the gridlines. Move the finger in a smooth motion while
keeping an even pressure. Try to keep the hand position the same for the entire line. Only look
at the black gridlines and try to ignore the red lines while drawing. Looking at the red line tends
to make you subconsciously adjust your drawing to correct inaccuracies, that might actually be
calibration errors.

Typical result of an acceptable


calibration:

The figure shows a typical result


of an acceptable calibration.
There will always be small problems
which will have to be accepted,
because of the inaccuracy of the
touch device. E.g. in the figure one
of the calibration points seems to be
a little bit off in the top, right part of
the screen.

5-6 BI1202-I
1202 Flex Focus Adjustment Procedure

Not acceptable calibration:

This figure shows serious


calibration errors, marked with the
letters A-D.

Not acceptable calibration:

This figure also shows serious


calibration errors, marked with
letters A-D. Errors C and D are
calibration points that are too high
and too low at the edge of the
calibration grid.

BI1202-I 5-7
Adjustment Procedure 1202 Flex Focus

Signs of a calibration error are:

 Lines that consistently divert from the gridline at a certain area of the screen.
 Lines that strangely folds back on itself in a jagged manner (e.g. B in the figure on the
previous page).

Note the following:

 A line might divert from the grid line because of the contact area between the finger and
the screen changing shape, because of a changed hand position or for some other reasons
unrelated to the calibration. If you are uncertain, redraw the line and see if the diversion is
recreated. If there is a calibration error, you will see the same diversion every time.
 For some reason the test tool does not always start a line, if you put your finger down
outside the screen and draw into the screen. If you have problems with this, start with you
finger just inside the border of the screen.
 You might have problems with gaps in the line. This might be because sliding the finger
across reduces the contact area with the screen. It might also be because you do not apply
enough pressure. Try again a few more times, starting just outside the problem area. Wait
a few seconds between each try. If the area remains dead, perform the “Test sensor” test
in step 5 to test for dead wires.

If the test shows serious calibration errors, the calibration must be redone.

Theory of Operation 1202 Flex Focus

8.1. Introduction
This section describes the theory of operation of the Diagnostic Ultrasound System
1202. The description is divided into two separate sub-sections:

General Description
Supported by a complete block diagram, this section aims to give you an understanding of
the interaction between modules, boards, and major function blocks. It explains briefly the
main signal flow through the 1202 system.

Board Description
This section provides an overall description of each Board/Subassembly, explaining the main
function of the function blocks.

8.2. General Description


The 1202 consists of a scanning unit with display and connectors. The scanning unit must be
mounted in a dock which exists in a variety of designs: mobile cart with and without battery pack,
table, and wall mounted. All designs include keyboard or touchpad, and a power supply. The
scanning unit holds only two main boards a Front End and a Core Board. The boards are connected
directly to each other, eliminating a backplane. On the Front End a TMUX is placed to take care of
the analog input/output signals. The scanner unit also includes the Flat Panel Display with or without
touchscreen, power button, backlight inverter, two fans, and an I/O module used to establish
connection to the dock.

The ETX module (PC) on the Core Board runs on the XP embedded operating system using
Console as shell. The ETX module boots like a normal PC from the BIOS and then launches
Windows XP Embedded from the hard disk.
It is not possible to install drivers on the system why all the necessary drivers are installed when the
scanner is delivered. The hard disk drive is divided into three partitions separating the main software
(C drive) from patient data (Q drive), and service data (S drive). This will make it easier to deal with
SW problems and updates.

The Core Board interfaces to the 19” LCD display mechanically rotated 90 degrees giving more
space for menus etc.

8.2.1. Ultra Sound Signal Flow


The scanner has three connectors for applied parts. Two of the inputs are connectors to array
transducers with 192 channels accessing the scanner unit through the TMUX. It is possible to access
64 channels at the time. A multiplexer is used to control which of the elements in the transducer
array that are used to send and receive the ultra sound signals. The third connector is located
directly at the Front End board and can be used for a single element transducer. This connector can

8-2 BI1202-I
1202 Flex Focus Theory of Operation

both send and receive analog ultra sound signals and control a motor in a transducer moving the
element.

The Core Board detects the type of scanning that the user demands and a digital signal is converted
to an analog signal before it is send to the FE where the high voltage ultra sound beam is created.
The beam is send to the desired transduced which is controlled by the multiplexer. 10% of the time
during a scanning session the scanner is transmitting and the remaining time the scanner is
receiving signals. When receiving the piezoelectric crystals in the transducer acts as a microphone
transforming the mechanical echoes to analog signals returning them to the FE. On the FE the signal
is amplified according to the TGC and forwarded to the Core Board where the signal is converted to
a digital signal. A variety of signal processing algorithms are applied to the signal according to the
user’s settings and the ultra sound image appears on the monitor.

8.3. The Engine

The Engine contains two main boards the Core Board and the Front End board (FE). The TMUX is
considered as a sub circuit on the FE-board. The main components on the boards will be described
in this section.

BI1202-I 8-3
Theory of Operation 1202 Flex Focus

The Core board consists of six major functional blocks plus a bank of local power converters
supplied with the 12 V DC from the main power supply inside the keyboard.

Embedded PC
The Embedded PC sub-system is built around a COMexpress module. The module contains an
entire PC motherboard including CPU and memory module, and interfaces to the carrier board (in
this case the Core Board) through two 220-pin connectors. Compared to the ETX form factor,
COMexpress primarily uses serial high-speed interfaces (PCI express, SATA, and SDVO) rather
than parallel busses (PCI, IDE). The COMexpress module directly provides gigabit LAN which is
brought off-board via the I/O Module. USB is not used on-board but two ports are brought off-board
via the I/O Module. One port is dedicated to the keyboard hub and the other is connected to a four-
port hub to provide 4 x USB-A connectors for the user.

Hard Disk Drive


One SATA link is used for the hard disk drive (HDD). This is a standard 2.5” computing HDD with a
capacity of 40GB or more. The HDD is located physically away from the Core Board and is
connected using standard SATA cables and connectors.

Digital Beamformer
The digital beamformer (DBF) core BPRO is based on one single FPGA supporting 64 channels.
The A/D Converter (ADC) digitizes the differential analog output from the analog channel strip to a
high-speed (420 Mbps) 10-bit serial stream.

Vector Processor
The vector processor (VECP) implements bandpass filtering, amplitude detection, and dynamic
range compression on focused scan lines from the digital beam former, delivering data to the PC
system (through the Host Interface) for geometry transformation and display. An averaging module
provides non-linear filtering of complete frames over time.

Vector Post Processor


The flow detection modules Spectral Doppler and color flow mapping are mainly implemented in an
attached Vector Post Processor (DOP).

RTSC
This subsystem consists simply of the SHARC DSP and a bank of SDRAM which is configured as
4M x 48 bit. The SDRAM runs at 90MHz, which is the core clock for the DSP. The SHARC Bus to
the Host Interface is only 32 bit wide and runs at 30MHz.
The SHARC is a floating point DSP and is used as the computation and real time control processor
for the ultrasound processor performing up to 180 MFLOPS (SIMD).
The SHARC is mainly used as a numerical processor for beam profile calculation. Beam profiles
consist of substantial amounts of data and must be calculated whenever the user changes a setting
that has to do with for example focusing, zooming, or adjusting the Doppler gate.
Besides that the SHARC translates the Shot Table and programs the Sequencer with image specific
data. It supplies Line Mode parameters and TGC curve data to be ready for the Beamformer, Front
End, and Vector Processor.

8-4 BI1202-I
1202 Flex Focus Theory of Operation

8.3.2. Front End

Transmit Beamforming (TXBF FPGA)


Full 64 channels transmit beamforming. Individual control of positive and negative pulses, arbitrary
line density, coded waveforms, and phased array beamforming are supported.

TX Profile Memory
The TX Profile Memory stores delays for each of the 64 channels for each vector. A 128K x 32
memory holds 4096 vector profiles. The delay profile for each vector is uploaded to the FPGA in the
time interval between receive end and transmit start.

64 Channels TX (transmitters)
Bipolar voltage driving transmitters capable of delivering up to 150Vpp in a typical
100 transducer load. Output amplitude regulation is common to all channels.

64 Channels RX (receivers)
64 low-noise preamplifiers with 19 dB gain and 64 VGA amplifiers which handle the
-11 to +36dB TGC gain range. Each outputs a differential voltage signal that is
provided directly to the ADC in the DBF function on the Core Board. The TGC
control signal, received as a differential signal from the Core Board, is converted to a
1,0V single ended signal and filtered, before it is applied to the VGA’s.

Single Probe TX/RX


Single channel transmitter/receiver including a dualstage TGC amplifier. The TGC signal will be the
same as the one used for the array probes, setting the same gain in both VGA stages. It is scaled to
match the reduced input voltage range. The analog output signal is summed onto the array output
bus to the Core Board. The TXBF FPGA is used for waveform generation and as interface to the
Core Board control bus.

Mover Motor Control


An encoder is connected to the axis of the DC-motor which sends a known number of pulses
for every revolution, the motor makes. By counting these pulses over a fixed time period the
processor can determine the speed of the motor and if it is too slow compared with
the requested speed from the PC the pulse width is increased (and vice versa if too fast).

Internal FE/TMUX Interface

The TMUX board is mounted on the Front End board and holds the two connectors for array
transducers, a relay bank for switching signals to the probes, and HVMUX circuits (multiplexer). The
signal input/output from the FE-board is a 64 channel wide TXRX data path. These 64 signals and
AGND’s are located in one FE/TMUX-connector. The TXRX-signals are fanned out to the one of the
two sets of 192 signal-channels in the array transducer connectors (A and B) by the TMUX function.
The interface has been divided into a connection for array signal (the TXRX signals) and one for
control signals and power supply.

8.3.4. PMC Module (PCI Mezzanine Card)


The PMC is an optional board that can be attached to the Core Board. The purpose of the board is to
facilitate a variety of additional digital image processing such as the IQPAC™, Automatic Mode
Adjustment (AMA), and Motion Compensated Angular Compound Imaging (MACI).

8-6 BI1202-I
1202 Flex Focus Theory of Operation

8.4. Dock and Keyboard


The dock contains a keyboard/trackpad, keyboard/trackpad controller, I/O connector board, DVI
connector board, and docking board.

The main blocks of the keyboard controller are shown on the block diagram below.

In general, the different functions are controlled via the USB HUB. The keyboard controller (KBDC)
has multiple task:

 Provide SPI controlled in-system programmability using AVR programmer


 Maintain communication with Windows host PC
 Provide RS232 connected boot-loader with ISP of own application firmware
 Act as and provide read/write access to ID-PROM
 Control the reset of the LEDC microcontroller
 Receive and forward keyboard LED settings (on/off) from host PC to LEDC
 Read temperature sensor and monitor/report temperature of cart
 Configure, control and supervise the fan controller
 Read and report keyboard custom key events from custom keyboard controller to host PC
 Generate audible alerts through custom keyboard controller speaker on host PC demand
 Control QWERTY keyboard enable and detect and report CAPSLOCK status
 Detect and report rotary encoder events to host PC
 Read and report keyboard TGC slider positions to host PC
 Drive a green LED associated with the KBDC status
 Provide system watchdog functionality

BI1202-I 8-7
Theory of Operation 1202 Flex Focus

8.5. Power supply


The power supply is a standard 12 V medical grade power supply with an output of 120 W. The input
voltage ranges from 90 to 264 VAC and the input frequency from 47 to 63 Hz. The power supply is
always powered when the scanner is connected to an outlet (stand-by mode). The Power supply is
either fitted in the keyboard/touch base on the Dock or in the Back-Pack if the system has the
Battery Support option. In the latter case the Power supply is part of the Battery Box.

8.5.1. Battery Pack

The system consists of three printed circuits boards, where the charger and switch matrix is on one
board. The DC/DC converter and the household microcontroller are on the second board, and the
LEDs with a temperature circuit is on the third board.
The Battery Box can contain up to two times two batteries. The chargers are dual smart battery
system managers and capable of controlling two smart batteries and a switch matrix for the
batteries. Therefore, the batteries must be placed in pairs and if only two batteries are installed in the
Battery Box they must be connected to the same charger.
The AVR is connected to the chargers and acts as a host monitoring the status of the batteries. Only
one charger can communicate with the AVR at the time why a multiplexer is placed in between. Both
chargers are able to generate an interrupt on the AVR in case of an urgent request.

The input voltage to the charger is delivered from the power supply and is nominal 19V +/-
5%. The output from the charger is the unregulated battery voltage or the power from the power
supply, depending on whether the power supply is powered or not. The output voltage is
controlled by the switch matrix in both chargers. The output from each charger circuit is
connected together and passed on to the DC/DC converter.

8.5.2. Voltage Distribution


Due to different power demands of the electrical components the voltage is converted to many
different levels. The purpose of this section is to give an overview of the accessible voltages on each
of the main boards.

Board Input Accessible Voltages
