1. General notes
Important Note
X-RAY EQUIPMENT AND DEVICES CAN BE DANGEROUS FOR THE HEALTH OF BOTH PATIENTS AND
OPERATORS, UNLESS PROPER SAFETY MEASURES ARE STRICTLY OBSERVED.
Although this equipment was designed and manufactured according to the most up-to-date safety
standards, the source of X-rays is always dangerous when the operator is not properly qualified or
trained. Excessive exposure to X-rays damages the human body.
Therefore, all the necessary precautions must be taken to prevent unauthorized or unskilled
personnel from operating this equipment, thus jeopardizing themselves and other people.
Do not use the equipment if you have not received appropriate training in the correct and safe use of
the equipment by the manufacturer or any of his appointed instructors.
Before executing any operation, the persons qualified and authorized to operate this equipment
must be informed about the protection and safety measures established by the International
Committee for Radiological Protection, as well as any other relevant national Standards.
For proper use of this equipment, it is necessary that the operator refer preventively and carefully
to this user manual. Special attention should be paid to the sections concerning user interface,
command functions, application examples and safety recommendations. Incorrect and
inappropriate use of the equipment by poorly qualified personnel, unsuitably and insufficiently

1.5. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)

In accordance with the intended use, this system complies with the European Directives concerning
Medical Devices, and it bears the CE mark. One of the standards of this directive defines the allowed
levels of electromagnetic emission from this equipment and its required immunity from the
electromagnetic emissions of other devices.
However, it is not possible to exclude with absolute certainty the possibility that other high frequency
electronic equipment, fully compliant with the EMC regulations, will not adversely affect the
operation of this system. If the other equipment has a comparatively high level of transmission
power and is in close proximity to the system, these EMC concerns (the risk of interference) may be
more pronounced. It is therefore strictly recommended that operations with mobile or cordless
telephones, microphones and other similar equipment, such as mobile radio systems, be executed at
a distance from the R&F system.

2. System description
It is an innovative system, specifically developed to meet the needs of modern, direct, digital,
skeletal, pulmonary, and first aid diagnostic radiology.
Its state-of-the-art architecture removes the conventional mechanical limitations, and allows any
type of projection. The image is immediately available, thus eliminating most of the manual
operations such as loading, transporting and developing films.
The system can automatically place the beam on the active detector, leaving only the fine centering
to the operator. In fact, the vertical and horizontal automatic tracking system keeps the beam always
centred on the detector.
The elevating table, with carbon fibre tabletop, allows examining a patient weighing up to 250 kg
without any limitation, ensuring high rigidity and reduced filtration. The longitudinal and transversal
detector unit motorizations eliminate the need for manual movement of the tabletop, allowing
complete patient exploration without the need for repositioning.
The anatomical programming mode can be controlled by the operator through the digital image
processor monitor or the touchscreen console. Once the exam has been selected, the tube and
detector automatically reach the correct position, leaving to the operator only the fine centering.

8.4. PRIMO image processor interface

The PRIMO image processor integrates the System remote controls and the generator functions via
the System DLL module that must be installed and configured as described in section 9.3 and section
9.4 of this manual.
All information exchange from the Image processor and the System is realized via the integrated
System DLL module.
The serial link communication (RS2-232) between the Generator power module and the integrate
console is realized by means of a cable that is generator specific.
are driven by the Primo processor by means of cable p/n 356004 from Primo plug CM1 and cable p/n
356003 from Primo plug CM2. These two cables are included into the generator package.
The primo processor is connected to the System via the Ethernet cable p/n 122186A from PRIMO
plug LAN3 to the System power cabinet CN113
In order to properly operate the System, the installer must define for each anatomical program the
System positioning code as described in section 7.5 of this manual.
The AEC circuit is integrated into the image processor as detailed in the Primo service
documentation.
Page 118
8.5. Setting automatic positions into anatomical programs

The System has several programmed positions corresponding to different anatomic programs. In this
paragraph you can find a table of correspondence between the positions of the machine and the
anatomic programs these positions refer to. When you select a particular anatomic program from the
digital system, the machine goes to the corresponding position by putting a particular code inside the
digital system itself. Therefore, it is necessary to know the exact code which binds the position to the
anatomic program.
Each position is referred to as a workstation, and each workstation can have different sub-positions.
For the System you have 7 workstations plus a direct mode, and each of them has up to 136 sub-
positions. If you call the workstation WS and its sub-position SP, the code you have to put inside the
anatomic program in the digital system is calculated with the following equation:
CODE = WS * 256 + SP
8.5.1. Table position

The workstation n. 1 corresponds to all the exams over the table using the bucky moving under the
table. If you imagine the table as a matrix with 3 rows per 11 columns, you have 33 sub-positions
where the bucky under the table can be placed. In the table below you can see the 33 sub-positions
with the corresponding code.
A1 B1 C1 D1 E1 F1 G1 H1 I1 J1 F1
A2 B2 C2 D2 E2 F2 G2 H2 I2 J2 F2
A3 B3 C3 D3 E3 F3 G3 H3 I3 J3 F3
You can also program an exam where the bucky remains in the place where it is: therefore an
additional sub-position has to be added to the previous 33 ones, for a total amount of 34 sub-
positions. For each of them, 2 focal distances are possible: the first one corresponds to a pre-
programmed distance during the calibration procedure (f1, see chapter 11), and the second one
corresponds to the first one with the additional amount of 30cm (f2 = f1 + 30cm). Moreover, for each
position and focal distance you can have 2 table heights: the first one is about 80cm (h1 = 80cm) and
the second one corresponds to the minimum height of the table (h2 = min cm).
Page 119
The total number of sub-positions for the workstation n. 1 is: 34 * 2 * 2 = 136. The table below shows
the different sub-positions of workstation n. 1 with the code you have to put inside the anatomic
program.

9. Control circuits & SW utilities

9.1. Foreword
The control electronics of the System has been designed in the way to grant an easy upgradability of
the System and a total flexibility in the management and controls of the motorised components as
single or when synchronised.
The calibration and configuration of the System is achievable via a calibration SW running on an
external laptop computer.
9.2. Circuits description

The control electronics of the System is based on the concept of distributed intelligence.
In particular the macro components of the System (Ceiling suspension, elevating table and wall stand)
are connected via a serial link (CAN bus) and receive the power supply from the power unit located in
the generator cabinet.
The System is connected to the image processor via a DLL module integrated into the Primo
processor computer. The communication between this module and the touch screen console of the
ceiling suspension is achieved via an Ethernet communication.
The System DLL integrated in the image processor acts also as control desk of the generator; the
communication between this module and the generator is achieved via an RS-232 link.
The power unit of the System contains the insulation transformers, the ON/OFF circuit and the circuit
breakers.
All motor drivers are microprocessor controlled and integrate the interface circuit for the end of
travel switches or position sensors (encoders, potentiometers).
All driver are equipped with CAN interface and receive macro commands from the CPU controlling
the specific macro component of the System.
The “intelligence” and the “control management” of the System it is distributed in three different
parts:
1. System Main CPU #1, located in the electronic Rack (inside the cabinet).
This board controls the Wall stand and the elevation movement of the table.
2. System Main CPU #2, located in the upper side of the Ceiling suspension.
This board controls the ceiling suspension and longitudinal and lateral movements of the table
docking station.
In the X-ray tube support arm is located an electronic board that contains the physical interface
circuit for the capacitive circuits of the ceiling suspension handgrips and the force sensor used by
the CPU to realize the zero force control for the tube vertical movement.
3. Touch screen CPU, mounted on the frontal part of the X-Ray tube.
Page 128
This module is based on an industrial Intel CPU running windows Xp embedded and on a specific
interface board for the Can communication with the other System components and the optional
blue tooth remote control.
This board is also the physical link with the Automatic collimator.
9.3. Hw jumpers settings

The System control firmware includes a set of software switches whose function is to enable or
disable optional components of the System or skip some parts of the safety chain.
Such switches are accessible in service mode via a specific configuration menu as detailed in the
following paragraphs of this section.
It must be underlined that the function of such switches might be related with the firmware version
installed on the System. For this reason is a good practice to check all service notes released after the
distribution of this manual to be sure that the jumpers still conserve the original function.
There are some software switches that allow the service engineer to disable safety
interlocks of the System. Such switches have the main porpoise to easy the trouble
shooting operation of field engineers, but can also dramatically reduce the safety level
of the System if enabled during normal operation.
Is therefore responsability of the field engineer that such switches are not left enabled
if not for the time strictly necessary for the troubleshooting operations.

maintenance mode), before the System initializes itself. You will see some notification messages
in the list view on the right side of the screen as well as a new background color (blue).
3. Select In/Out/Analogs from the Display tab in the top part of the window.
Page 151
4. A new window will open with a complete list of all the actual status of the input signals and
output signals (where present) of each device. This list allows a fast overview of the
microswitches, the relays, the brakes and the analog signals built inside the machine. Each of
them is organized in boxes referring to the driver and to the board inside the System where they
come from. In the example below, the ceilstand’s Vertical Driver status and that of the CTM
Board can be checked (the status signals are referred to as blinking circles: grey meaning input
signals actually not in communication with ceilstand vertical driver and main board, yellow
meaning the end of run down input signal actually in communication with vertical driver and
movements enable button input signal actually in communication with the ceilstand main board
and green meaning the end of run up input signal actually read from the ceilstand vertical driver).
The LED in the Movement Bit - (Software OUTPUT) field shows if a motorized movement of the
System is in progress (green led) or if it is not (yellow led).
WARNING
Each signal is described with a label, in which the final part can vary according to the
system configurations.
Therefore, we suggest to refer to the electrical scheme to check what signal belongs to
which of the listed micros.
Page 152
5. After having monitored the main digital signals of the Ceilstand, Elevating table and Bucky Stand,
select ANALOG key in the bottom part of the window to display the complete list of all the actual
values of the analog signals.

If you click on each of their numeric field, a new window will open.
Page 153
Horn n°1 and Horn n°2 refer respectively to the left sensors and right sensors of the ceilstand
capacitive handle, and their values are expressed in mV. Straingauge refers to the ceilstand fast
vertical movement through the capacitive handle and its value is expressed in mV. Ultrasound sonar
refers to the value in mV of the distance between the anticollision ultrasonic sensor (positioned
under the vertical ceilstand) which allows the movement to stop and any object detected far than 20
cm. Vertical Driver - Encoder refers to the vertical position of the ceilstand, and its value is expressed
in mm. Longitudinal Driver - Encoder refers to the longitudinal position of the ceilstand, and its value
is expressed in mm. Lateral Driver - Encoder refers to the transverse position of the ceilstand, and its
value is expressed in mm. Incidence Driver - Encoder refers to the alpha angle rotation around the
tube focus, and its value is expressed in encoder steps. Rotation Driver - Encoder refers to the beta
angle arm rotation around the center of the vertical ceilstand, and its value is expressed in encoder
steps. Detector Longitudinal Driver - Encoder refers to the longitudinal position of the detector
under the elevating table, and its value is expressed in mm. Detector Lateral Driver - Encoder refers
to the transverse position of the detector under the elevating table, and its value is expressed in
mm. Wall Bucky Vertical Driver, refers to the vertical position of the bucky stand, and its value is
expressed in mm. Wall Bucky Tilting Driver, refers to the rotation of the bucky stand, and its value is
expressed in degree. Finally, Ultrasound Sonar n°2 refers to the value in mV of the distance between
the anticollision ultrasonic sensor (positioned under the vertical ceilstand) which allows the
movement to stop and any object detected far than 20 cm., expressed in mm (signal in pulse mode).
Arm Rotation, Sensing Device X, Sensing Device Y, Wall Bucky Foot Pedal UP, Wall Bucky Foot Pedal
DOWN , Elevix Foot Pedal UP, Elevix Foot Pedal DOWN and Ultrasound Sonar n°2 are not present in
this version of System.
7. In the example below, by clicking in the Horn n°1 numeric field, the relative diagram will appear,
and if you grap and release the capacitive handles on the left side of the ceilstand, the ON/OFF
signal will be visible on the diagram itself.
Page 154
9.6. Movements monitoring

The service software utility also allows a complete monitoring of the main movements of the System.
3. Select Graphic from the Display tab in the top part of the window.
4. One by one, select the items in the drop-down menu to graphically display the reading values of
the individual axis positions or the individual movements along their entire strokes.
Page 155
Lateral, Longitudinal and Vertical refer to the X, Y and Z coordinates of the ceilstand. Rotation and
Incidence refer to the alpha and beta angles of the tube. Detector Lateral and Detector Longitudinal
refer to the transverse and longitudinal coordinates of the detector under the table. Vertical Bucky
and Vertical Bucky Tilt refer to the height and to the angle of the bucky stand. Finally, Sonar1 refers
to the value in mm of the sonar distance between the source (under the vertical ceilstand) and any
object detected far than 20 cm. Ctm Arm Incidence and Sonar2 are not present in this version of
System.
5. In the example below, selecting Longitudinal the relative diagram will appear and if you move the
ceilstand in the longitudinal direction, a trace of the movement will be visible, together with the
minimum and maximum positions reached during the movement.
Page 156
WARNING
When maintenance mode in On, to move the table bucky in longitudinal and transverse
directions it is mandatory to use the appropriate directional keys on the System service
software (as in the example below) and NOT the keys on the touchscreen console.

9.9. Drivers programming

It’s useful to know something about the programmation and the configuration of the main drivers
involved in the movement of the whole System. The System has two different types of drivers:
FM713 and Kollmorgen AKD.
The FM713 ones are used for the following movements:
3. Ceiling lateral movement (x);

4. Ceiling longitudinal movement (y);
5. Tube rotation movement (alpha);
6. Arm rotation movement (beta);
7. Bucky under the table lateral movement (for Systems with the table);
8. Bucky under the table longitudinal movement (for Systems with the table);
9. Wall bucky vertical movement (for Systems with the wall bucky);
10. Wall bucky tilting movement (for Systems with the wall bucky).
The first six drivers are used to pilot AC brushless motors, while the last two ones are used to pilot DC
motors. Anyway, both of them are powered by direct current with a voltage ranging from about 70 V
to about 80 V. They are also used to read some digital signals coming from the System (above all
concerning grid and cassette microswitches) and to drive some output digital signals for some other
movements (for example the deformation grid mechanism and the bucky rotation).
The Kollmorgen AKD one is used for the following movement:
11. Ceiling vertical movement (z).
This driver is used to pilot a more powerful DC motor. It is powered by a monophase alternated
current directly provided by the net with a voltage ranging from about 230 V to 240 V.
There is an additional movement in the System: the up / down movement of the table, driven by two
synchronized SKF actuators, but they don’t need a particular programmation because it’s already
carried out by the factory which provides the motors.

5. Connect the USB M-M cable from your laptop to driver’s connector J102 (the green one in the
previous image).
Page 217
6. As far as the programming and the configuration of the FM713 drivers are concerned, you only
need an USB cable with male connectors on both sides. Inside any of the FM713 drivers, there is
a small FTDI chip that converts the USB message to RS232 ones and vice versa. After connecting
the USB cable from the driver to your laptop, it is necessary that your PC have FTDI drivers
installed, so that the USB port can be seen as a Virtual COM Port (VCP).
3 In order to do that, open the Windows Device Manager and go to Universal Serial Bus
controllers.
7. Then click on USB Serial Converter, open the Advanced tab and check the flag indicating Load
VCP, as shown in the figure below.
Page 218
8. After that, Windows will recognize the USB port as a COM port (eventually unplug the USB cable
and plug it again). If Windows has assigned a number bigger than 8 to the new COM port (in the
example COM66), renumber it with a number ranging from 1 to 8 (in the example COM8). In
order to do that, go to Ports (COM & LPT) and click on USB Serial Port.
9. Open the Port Settings tab and click on the Advanced button.

10.3. Mechanical calibrations

In this paragraph you can find some procedures for three mechanical calibrations of the system: the
first one involves the correct position of the ceilstand tube, the second one a tube angle calibration,
and the third one is necessary for a smooth vertical manual movement.
10.3.1. Position of the tube

This procedure allows to verify that the focal spot of the tube corresponds with the central rotation
point of the ceilstand support arm.
1. Using the capacitive handles, manually move the ceilstand (oriented at 0°) until it reaches a
comfortable position for the operator and measures the distance from the floor using the
ceilstand measurement tool.
Page 254
2. Turn the ceilstand counterclockwise (+ 90°) by pressing the counterclockwise rotation key 1 on
the device's touchscreen console. Press the collimator’s light switch 2.
Page 255
3. Measure the focus distance between the red light (corresponding to the focal point of the tube)
and the floor, checking that the distance is the same as in the previous point.
Page 256
4. If the two measurements do not coincide, loosen the fixing screws of the tube-support arm and
position the support on its slide, to the right or left, depending on whether it is necessary to
decrease or increase the focal distance.
Page 257
10.3.2. Balancing the tube

This procedure is necessary to balance the weight of the X-ray tube when it is rotating.
• Mechanically remove the tube incidence motor from the whole machine.
• Verify that the tube – collimator assembly is mechanically balanced, otherwise you have to
raise or lower its position with respect to the suspension support in order to make it
balanced.
• Then reconnect the motor to the machine as it was in the beginning.
10.3.3. Calibration of the strain-gauge

As far as the vertical manual movement of the suspension is concerned, the core of the system is the
strain-gauge, placed behind the tube. It is a sensor which can detect the force the user transmits to
the handlebar (in both directions, up and down), and translates this information to the suspension
CPU which enables the vertical movement of the motor in a way to simulate a “force zero”
movement. In order to do that, the strain-gauge signal has to be read and later amplified by an
analogic board placed just behind it. Nevertheless, a procedure has to be performed in order to
calibrate the electrical voltages on some test points of the board.
• Let the strain-gauge loose from its locking nuts.
• Adjust the voltage on TP14 of the board 121786 with PT2 in order to obtain 0 mV.
• Tighten the two locking nuts of the strain-gauge very smoothly in order to maintain the
voltage on TP14 at 0 mV.
• Adjust the voltage on TP9 of the same board with PT1 in order to obtain 2500 mV.
• Lay a little weight over the tube – collimator assembly and adjust the voltage on TP9 of the
same board with PT3 in order to have a variation of 100 mV per kg applied (for example, if
you place a 7 kg object over the tube – collimator assembly, you have to read a voltage of
1800 mV = (2500 – 700) mV on TP9).
• Now the strain-gauge is completely calibrated.

Page 286
10.6. Tube calibrations

These calibrations are necessary in order to perfectly align the tube both to the elevating table
detector and to the bucky stand detector. There are two types of rotation, according to two degrees
of freedom of the tube: an incidence rotation (alpha angle) nearly around the tube focus, and an arm
rotation (beta angle) around the center of the vertical ceilstand. The keys Left, Center and Right for
both of them refer respectively to the angles -90°, 0° and +90°.
Watching the System frontally, for the tube incidence rotation Left indicates the tube orientated to
your left side, Center indicates the tube orientated to the ground and Right indicates the tube
orientated to your right side.
Always watching the System frontally, for the tube arm rotation Left indicates the ceilstand arm
orientated to your left side, Center indicates the ceilstand arm orientated towards you and Right
indicates the ceilstand arm orientated to your right side.
10.6.1. Tube incidence rotation (alpha)

To calibrate the alpha angle, you have to position the tube into the three different orientations (Left,
Center and Right). The sequence of the calibration is free.
Proceed as follows:
1. Create a reference on the floor using a plane tool with crossed lines (e.g. the detector), which
allows verifying and obtaining the alignments necessary for calibrations.
Page 287
2. Using the capacitive handles, manually move the ceilstand until it reaches the position over the
detector. Press key 1 to switch the collimator light and obtain a transversal line on the ground
reference tool and proceed with the correct alignment of the ceilstand. On the console
touchscreen, press the 2 and 3 up and down keys to verify that the collimator's red light projected
on the ground reference constantly remains in position over the entire travel. Otherwise, it
means that the ceilstand is not correctly oriented. In this case, it is necessary to press the
clockwise and anticlockwise rotation keys 4 and 5 to correct the central rotation angle of the tube
incidence.

manufacturer.
WARNING
The manufacturer denies any responsibility for improper operation, damages or
dangerous situations caused directly or indirectly by non-respect of maintenance
schedules.
12.1.User maintenance
It's a good practice to survey on the following items:
Handgrips:
They are intended to keep the patient's hands away from potentially dangerous positions.
It's a good practice to leave them in place, and adjust and fix them for each patient.
Miscellany:
The operator must daily check that all the security and signaling circuits are fully operative.
The protection against electrical shocks has been realized grounding all the metal covers of the
unit.
Therefore, it is imperative to check periodically the proper operation of the grounding system of the
examination room in which the system has been installed according with the regulations in force.
Page 450
12.2. General cleaning and disinfection

The equipment must always be cleaned after use. According to local regulations, appropriate
guidelines and procedures must be followed for cleaning and disinfection, in order to avoid
contamination of personnel, patients and equipment. It is the user's responsibility to adopt an
appropriate disinfection procedure.
12.2.1. Cleaning
To clean the external parts of the equipment, follow the procedure below.
• Stop the system and cut off the power supply.
WARNING
When the equipment needs cleaning, be sure to turn off the main power of the system.
Never use organic solvents, alcohol, ether, benzene, diluents or any other flammable
agent, as they may cause fire or electric shock.
• Clean the appliance with a soft cloth, moistened with water and a neutral detergent.
WARNING
Make sure that no liquid permeates the appliance.
WARNING
Do not spray disinfectants or detergents directly on the equipment. Do not pour liquids
directly on the equipment.
WARNING
Do not use solvents, alcohol, ether, diluents or benzene. Do not use any corrosive or
abrasive product for cleaning or polishing, as this may damage the surfaces of the
equipment.
By using unsuitable cleaning products or methods, the equipment surfaces may become
opaque and fragile (for example by the use of alcohol-based agents), and can seriously
deteriorate.
WARNING
Do not open the equipment for cleaning. No components Inside the equipment require
cleaning by the user.
WARNING
Allow the surfaces of the equipment to dry completely before re-starting the system.
Page 451
In the various equipment cleaning steps, use specific products that, in case of accidental contact with
the guide, do not damage it.
The following are the suitable/allowed products:
• Solmentar C4 degreaser (Cod. GMM 33675)
• Certisuds degreaser (Cod. GMM 33912)
Once the cleaning phase is completed, lubricate the guide with protective oil (CONTRAKOR FLUID H1
SPRAY – KLUBER – GMM P/N 161254).
SURFACE RUST REMOVAL:
If there is rust on the guides, the operator must perform the following operations to remove it.
Wear nitrile gloves and use a layer of 1000-grit wettable sand paper.
Rub the sand paper repeatedly over the rusty part of the linear guide, until the rust is eliminated.
To reach the rust located in a concave area of the guide, use a piece of 1.5 mm 2 – diameter electrical
wire, and wrap it with wettable, 1000-grit sand paper.
Once the sanding phase is completed, lubricate the guide with protective oil (ANTICORIT RP 4107 LV).
Note: If, after insistent sanding activity, the rust is still there, please report the item.
12.2.2. Disinfection
WARNING
The use of disinfectants that can form explosive or flammable gas mixtures creates a
danger condition for health and life, due to the risk of explosion. Switch off the
equipment before disinfecting it. Allow the gas mixture to evaporate completely before
turning on the radiological system.
Use only disinfectants and procedures approved by the manufacturer to disinfect the equipment, in
compliance with local regulations and explosion protection regulations. If you plan to use other
disinfectants, the manufacturer's prior approval is required, as most disinfectants can damage the
equipment.
For the disinfection of surfaces, it is recommended to use aqueous solutions available on the market
for the disinfection of surfaces based on aldehyde or amphoters such as, for example, Tego 103,
Korsolin. (These products are not available in Canada. For the Canadian market the use of tb
Minuteman or hx2 is recommended).
Furthermore, the following disinfectants have been found to be compatible with the equipment
covering material, and can be used on the external surface of the devices.
- WIP 'ANIOS Excel

- Sani-Cloth AF3
- Microzid Sensitive Wipes
- Meliseptol Rapid
Page 452
- Acrylan
- Lysoformin 3000
Disinfectants based on phenolic substitutes and chlorine-containing compounds are partially

aggressive and should therefore be avoided. The same limits apply to agents containing alcohol,
when they are applied in an undiluted form (egg for hand disinfection).
Spray disinfectants must be avoided as the spray can enter the equipment. As a consequence, the
safety of the equipment can no longer be guaranteed (damage to electronic components, formation
of flammable mixtures of air and solvent vapors).
WARNING
As generally known, some components of disinfectants are harmful to health. Their
concentration in the breathing air should not exceed certain legal limits. For this reason
it is recommended that the instructions on their use provided by the manufacturers of
these agents are respected.
Page 453
12.3.Preventive maintenance – schedule
