Introduction
Cautions Relating to Cellular Telephones
Do not bring cellular telephones or related devices into the

examination room.
Do not bring mobile devices that emit electromagnetic waves (e.g. cellular
telephones) into the examination room unless they are switched OFF.
Such devices can exceed the EMC electromagnetic wave standards, and
under some conditions this can impair the proper functioning of the
system. In the worst case, this can cause serious injuries or clinical errors.
Cautions on the Compatibility of Electromagnetic Fields
UD150L-40E/40F, D150LC-40E/40F/45E/45F, GSC-2002S needs special

precautions regarding EMC and needs to be installed and use according
to the EMC information provided in this operation manual
^ Reference "11.4 Environmental Conditions of EMC (Electro-Magnetic
Compatibility)"
Check that the electromagnetic fields are compatible.

All peripheral devices must satisfy the EMC standards regarding emission
of electromagnetic waves and sensitivity to emitted electromagnetic
waves. Devices that do not satisfy these standards may disturb the correct
functioning of the system. In the worst case, this can cause serious injuries
or clinical errors.
Compatibility)"

Introduction
UD150L-40E/40F, D150LC-40E/40F/45E/45F, GSC-2002S should not be

used adjacent to or stacked with other equipment and that if adjacent or
stacked use is necessary, UD150L-40E/40F, D150LC-40E/40F/45E/45F,
GSC-2002S should be observed to verify normal operation in the
configuration in which it will be used.
Compatibility)"
Cautions on Radiation
Do not allow operation of this apparatus by any person other than

qualified personnel (physicians, radiotherapy engineers and clinical
X-ray engineers) or under observation by them.
Be aware of the potential for X-ray irradiation.

If X-ray equipment is not used correctly the operator, the subject, and
other persons may receive a greater dose of radiation than is necessary.
Nobody other than the subject should remain in the examination room
during irradiation. If for some reason another person has to be in the
examination room, that person must take adequate measures to protect
themselves against radiation (protective apron, screen, etc.).

Introduction
Perform X-ray irradiation carefully and according to the doctor's directions

when using the equipment with expectant mothers, women who suspect
they are pregnant, lactating women, and children.
Always check the X-ray exposure region using the collimator lamp.
Irradiating a patient with X-rays outside the required region risks exposing
the patient to unnecessary radiation.
During X-ray irradiation, ensure that the X-rays irradiate the necessary
region only. To avoid X-ray irradiation, narrow down the collimator and
take protection measures, such as wearing a lead apron.
Be sure to carry out aging before taking an X-ray radiograph.

Before taking an X-ray radiograph, running-in operation of the X-ray tube
assembly called "aging" is required
^ Reference " Warranty" (Introduction-16)

Introduction
In order to minimize the absorbed dose, make the focal spot to

distance as long as possible (Minimum 45 cm).
In exposure, if a standby situation continues with the exposure ready key

pressed, wire disconnection or dielectric strength failure may result owing
to the vaporization of the X-ray tube filament, so avoid unnecessary
standby situations.
After the X-ray tube assembly is used for a long time at a relatively low
tube voltage (below 80 kV), if it is used in the range near the nominal
highest tube voltage (100 kV or more), an arc may result. This is an
accidental arc caused by the weakened aging effect at high tube voltage
after the X-ray tube assembly is used for a long time at a lower tube
voltage. In this case, carry out the aging procedure before operating the
apparatus.
Keep pressing the radiography preparation button or the first stage of the
Hand Switch, and the radiography button or the second stage of the Hand
Switch until the set exposure time is finished.
Releasing them will stop X-ray irradiation and the suitable radiography
image will not be acquired.

Introduction
X-ray Tube Aging
Aging is effective to confirm that there is no failure in the X-ray tube unit as well as
to prevent electric discharge. In the event of abnormal operation, turn off the unit’
s power and distribution board and contact your Shimadzu representative.
(1) Select large focus and perform radiographic operation following the order described
below. Pause for 60 seconds between radiographic operations.
c 80 kV, 0.1 sec. Once
d 90 kV, 0.1 sec. Once
e 100 kV, 0.1 sec. Once
f 110 kV, 0.1 sec. Once
∗ Select the tube current (mA) of about 1/2 of the maximum that can be selected for
each kV value.
g 120 kV, 0.1 sec. Once
To use the unit for high-pressure radiography (130 kV or more), perform aging up to
the tube voltage to be used.
h 130 kV, 0.1 sec. Once
i 140 kV, 0.1 sec. Once
j 145 kV, 0.1 sec. Once
∗ Select the tube current (mA) of about 1/2 of the maximum that can be selected for
each kV value.
k 150 kV, 0.1 sec. Once
(2) If an error occurs during aging, wait for one minute and reduce the tube voltage by
30 kV and perform radiographic operation.
(3) For an X-ray tube unit with two or more focuses, make sure that they can be changed
during radiographic operation.
(4) If there are two or more X-ray tube units, perform aging for each unit.
(5) When fluoroscopic operation can be performed, perform the operation at 50 kV,
increase the tube voltage at the rate of 10 kV/min. up to the nominal maximum
voltage, and perform fluoroscopic operation at the nominal maximum voltage for five
minutes.

Introduction
Operating Precautions
(1) Installation of the apparatus shall be made by the apparatus

manufacturer or the dealer (referred to as the trader thereafter). If
relocation is intended after installation, contact the trader.
(2) Pay attention to the following items before use of the apparatus.
(i) Operation of switches, meters, etc. and state of connection of high-voltage
cables and earth cord
(ii) Setting of adjusters to appropriate exposure conditions for fluoroscopic or
radiographic operation.
(3) Be careful of the following items during operation of the apparatus.

about with the next operation.
(5) In the case of occurrence of a trouble, do not take any operation for
yourself, but make a proper sign. For compensation or repair, take an
appropriate treatment based on judgment of a qualified person, or
contact the trader or serviceman.
(6) Do not disconnect cords, cables and other connections, unless it is
required.

Introduction
Cautions When Irradiating Consecutive Pulse-shaped X-ray Fluxes
Observe the following precautions when irradiating consecutive

pulse-shaped X-ray fluxes
• Conducting studies in which consecutive pulse-shaped X-ray fluxes are
irradiated onto the implanted region of an implantable pacemaker or
implantable defibrillator may cause these devices to malfunction.
• Refer to the "Important General Cautions," "Interactions," or other rele-
vant sections in the accompanying documentation of the implantable
pacemaker or implantable defibrillator and take the prescribed mea-
sures before irradiating the implanted region of these devices with con-
secutive pulse-shaped X-ray fluxes.
Fluoroscopy or radiography performed by irradiating consecutive pulse-
shaped X-ray fluxes (such as consecutive radiography within a few
seconds, pulsed fluoroscopy, DA radiography, DSA radiography, or
cineradiography) can adversely affect the CMOS circuit in implantable
pacemakers and implantable defibrillators. Such affects may cause
oversensing in these devices that can temporarily inhibit pacing pulse
output and result in an inappropriate heart rate.

• With the hand switch
Avoid unnecessary Ready-up. Failure to conduct radiographic operation in the

Ready-up status ( lit) may result in a discontinuity or defective withstand voltage
due to filament evaporation.
See 7.1.1 "Messages Related to the X-ray High Voltage Generator" if the (fault
indicator) is lit.
It is important to run-in (aging) the X-ray tube before commencing actual X-ray
irradiation. Follow the aging procedure described in the section X-ray Tube Aging.
Insufficient aging can result in arcing in the X-ray tube during X-ray irradiation.

10　Options
10.1 Communication Unit
Installing the optional communication unit permits the equipment to communicate with external
instruments, such as RIS or CR.
Technique factors can be received from external instruments and set for the equipment. In addition,
technique factors can be sent to external instruments.
10.1.1 Sending and Receiving Technique Factors
J Receiving technique factors

Technique factors received from external instruments can be set for the X-ray high-voltage
generator. Set technique factors can be changed subsequently.
If technique factors are received while an Anatomical Program is selected, the

name of the Anatomical Program does not change.
Consequently, the name of the Anatomical Program may not match the received
technique factors. You are recommended to pre-register the Anatomical Program
with the name "ON LINE" or some other preferred name.
Errors receiving the technique factors

The message "Communication ERR" is displayed in a pop-up window on the
touch panel if the received technique factors cannot be set for the equipment.
Radiographic operation is not possible in this status. Press the [Reset] key
on the pop-up window to reset the error.
J Transmitting technique factors

When radiographic operation is complete, the technique factors used are transmitted automatically.
(The transmitted exposure time is the actual time taken for the X-ray irradiation.)
