1. Overview
CXDI-701G/701C Wireless

The CXDI-701G/701C Wireless has the following features:


 Wireless
This product enables easy and convenient operations to be performed without using any cables for
communicating or supplying power.
The product supports the IEEE802.11n (2.4 GHz/5 GHz) standard and makes it possible to display
images at speeds higher than those of similar products which were previously available.
 The product is the size of a film cassette that meets ISO standards, and its weight has also been
reduced.
It has the same dimensions as the film cassettes that comply with the ISO4090 standard, and it can
use the kind of equipment which is designed for existing analog imaging.
It weighs only 3.3 kg or so including the battery, and this helps it to deliver excellent operability.
 High-definition detector featured
With its pixel pitch of 125µm, the detector achieves high-resolution images. The CXDI-701C
Wireless employs cesium iodide (CsI) for the scintillator to achieve enhanced sensitivity.
 System compatibility assured with Canon’s existing wireless digital radiography (DR) models
The product maintains system compatibility with Canon’s existing wireless models such as the
CXDI-70C Wireless and CXDI-80C Wireless, allowing different units to be used side by side in
the same environment.
 Function for charging the battery from the detector cable
By connecting the product to a wiring unit using the detector cable and supplying power from an
external source, the product’s battery can be charged without having to remove it from the detector
itself.
 Non generator connection mode used
In addition to the standard synchronization mode which is the imaging mode of existing products,
this product features a non generator connection mode.
▪ Non generator connection mode: Without the use of a wired connection routed through the
X-ray generator and X-ray interface unit, the detector detects the X-rays and takes the images.
This readily supports use in regular mobile X-ray systems and other such imaging
environments.
▪ Standard synchronization mode: Imaging mode of existing products. Synchronized imaging is
enabled using a wired connection routed through the X-ray generator and X-ray interface box.

2.2 System compatibility with Canon’s existing wireless models


maintained
This product can be installed as an additional component in a system in which an existing model
(such as a detector in the 70 series or 80C series) shown in the figure below has been installed.
However, since none of the existing models except for the CXDI-701 series of detectors
support the non generator connection mode, it will not be possible to use the non generator
connection mode in a system environment where an existing model is connected. (In cases
like this, operations only in the standard synchronization mode will be performed.)
Furthermore, in order to use a detector in the CXDI-701 series, the CCS version must be upgraded
to V2.10 while at the same time it is also necessary to update the firmware in the 70 series or 80C
series of detectors to a version which supports CCS with V2.10 or greater.

1. Overview

There is no display in the battery itself which enables its remaining charge level to be checked.
While the battery is installed in the detector, the remaining charge level information is output
from the management circuit (BMU: battery management unit) incorporated inside the battery,
and a 3-segment scale is displayed using the software in the Image Capture Computer.
The table below shows the remaining battery charge levels.

Immediately after the power of the detector is turned on, this level is read from the battery and
sent to the software in the image capture computer. After this, the level is read inside the
detector from the battery at fixed intervals, but no data is sent until a level below that indicated
by the red underbars in the above table is read.
The figure below shows the correlation between the discharge curves, remaining charge level
prediction curves and posting of the remaining charge level displays.

* BMU corrects the remaining charge level prediction line from the actual remaining charge
level when the remaining charge level is predicted to be 8%. If the actual remaining charge level
(voltage level) when the remaining charge level is predicted to be 8% is higher than the
prediction, the gradient of the remaining charge level prediction curve is increased. Conversely,
if it is lower, BMU works to correct the gradient so that the prediction curve gradient is reduced.
Therefore, if charging and discharging are repeated at shallow remaining charge levels which
fail to reach the remaining charge prediction of 8%, the compensation described above is not
performed and, along with the deterioration in the battery capacity caused by the repeated
charging and discharging, the accuracy with which the remaining charge level is predicted may
suffer as well. What is ideal is for the battery to be used to below the 8% remaining charge level
(at which imaging is no longer possible) each time the battery is used but, in practical terms, it
is recommended that the battery be used to below the 8% remaining charge level once every
several times the battery is charged and discharged.

1. Overview

4.13 [Supplementary notes] Long-term storage of batteries

The characteristics of lithium-ion batteries are such that when the batteries are left standing in
storage for a prolonged period of time, their charging capacity decreases so they may end up
becoming unusable. The higher the temperature in the storage location, the faster the charging
capacity deteriorates. When the batteries become overdischarged, this deterioration progresses
at an even more significant pace.

Storage characteristics when the batteries are charged 40%


Storage Time taken to reach Time taken to reach
temperature overdischarge region deep discharge region
60℃ 0.7 year 1.2 years
40℃ 0.9 year 1.8 years
25℃ 1.2 years 2.2 years
0℃ 1.3 years 2.3 years
Storage characteristics when the batteries are charged 100%
Storage Time taken to reach Time taken to reach
Overdischarge region: Cell voltage of 2.5 V or

Deep discharge region: Cell voltage of 1.3 V
25℃ 2.3 years 3.3 years
2.5 years 3.5 years or below, no further charging possible
0℃
* Based on the above characteristics, the batteries may become unusable when they have been
left standing in a storage temperature of 25 to 40°C for more than 1.5 years or so when
charged 40% or for more than 2.5 years or so when charged 100%.

Capacity deterioration characteristics after storage for 1 year


Storage temperature 40% charge 100% charge
60℃ -22% -39%
40℃ -10% -16%
25℃ -3% -10%
0℃ -1% -5%
* It is not possible to restore the capacity of batteries which has deteriorated as a result of
storage. After storage, the charging capacity will be reduced.
* When batteries with a 100% charge are left standing in a 25°C environment for one year,
their charging capacity will drop by about 10%.
* “100% charge” is the status in which charging with the battery charger is completed.

* Concerning battery control undertaken by the sales companies (or agents)


The batteries have a 100% charge when they are shipped from the manufacturing plant, and
the shipment date is entered on the packing labels. When batteries have been kept in the
inventory of the sales companies (or agents) for more than one year or when two years have
elapsed from the shipment date on the packing labels, the batteries must be 100% charged,
and the sales companies (or agents) must take responsibility for battery control.

2. Installation procedures

1. Work-related precautions
Bear the following points in mind when installing the system.

(1) Carry out the work while ensuring that none of the portable units will be dropped or subjected to
impact.

(2) Ensure that the installation location satisfies the following criteria:

1) A location where the equipment will not be splashed with water

2) A location where the air does not contain moisture, dust, salt, sulfur or other such substances and
where the equipment will not be adversely affected by poor ventilation, the air pressure level, the
temperature and other such factors

3) A location which is not tilted or subject to vibration or impact (this includes the locations when the
equipment is conveyed)

4) A location where chemical products are not stored and where no gases are given off

5) A location where the power source providing the correct power line frequency, voltage and power
used by the equipment can be supplied

6) A location where a grounding wire and the 3-pin grounding plug of the power cable can be connected

(3) After installing the equipment, ensure that the product packaging materials and other waste materials
generated at the time of installation are disposed of in an environmentally sound manner.

2. Installation restrictions
(1) Take steps to ensure that the system is not installed near electronic devices or equipment since noise
artifacts occur more readily on the images in environments where strong electromagnetic fields are
present.
Examples of electronic devices and equipment concerned: CRT monitors, X-ray generators, medical
electronic equipment

(2) The system must not be installed near devices or equipment which may interfere with wireless
communication.
Examples of electronic devices and equipment concerned: Thermal therapy devices, laser knives,
cordless telephones

(3) When using a wired connection for the product, install the detector and AC/DC box with a distance
of at least 150 mm between them.

(4) For use, the cables must be routed without bending, pinching or stretching them or subjecting them
to unreasonable loads. Remodeling of the cables is prohibited.

(5) In the case of a network connection, the appropriate network address must be acquired from the
network administrator in the installation location, and it must be set correctly.

(6) When installing the system in a regular radiography room, the wireless LAN access point, switching
hub, battery charger, Image Capture Computer, ready indicator unit and X-ray interface box must be
installed in locations outside the patient environment. For further details, refer to the system connection
diagrams in sections 7.1 and 7.2. (Battery-powered notepad computer can be installed in the locations
inside the patient environment).

-1-
2. Installation procedures

(7) There are no usage restrictions on how the detector is to be positioned. Avoid using the detector
where it will be subjected to extreme bending loads or where it will easily be dropped.

(8) There are some limitations on the operation of the non generator connection mode in the mobile X-
ray system environment. Section 7.8 and 7.9 System connection in the non generator connection mode
(mobile X-ray system environment).

(9) Note that the radio frequency channel configured for indoor use may not be usable in outdoor areas
in the 5 GHz band. For further details, refer to the wireless communication specifications in section 4.6
in Chapter 1 Overview.

3. Installation-related precautions
(1) Bear in mind that there will be a risk of malfunctioning and other trouble if this product is used
together with any equipment which may generates power supply noise, supply voltage fluctuations,
electromagnetic waves and other disturbances.

(2) Before proceeding with the installation work, ensure that the static charged in the bodies of the
installation personnel has been released.

(3) Before connecting or disconnecting the cables, be absolutely sure to turn off the power of the units in
order to ensure safety. In addition, do not touch the power outlets or connectors with wet hands.

* Checking out the wireless environment

Make sure to perform the wireless LAN channel setting according to the channel setting guidelines.
In addition, when trouble has occurred in wireless communication, proceed to ascertain the causes of the
trouble and take the countermeasures on the basis of [When wireless communication trouble has
occurred] in Chapter 6 Troubleshooting.
If the signal strength level in GUI is still 0 or if it takes a significant amount of time to transfer the
images even after taking the countermeasures in 1) and 2) above, explain the signal interference
situation to the user, and ask the user to consider operation based on a wired connection that uses a
wiring unit.

[Channel setting guidelines]


Channel setting guidelines

Guidelines
Wireless LAN channel setting guidelines for adding the DR Wireless system to an existing wireless
LAN environment are described below. These guidelines apply to both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.

Basic guidelines
Check out the channels used in the existing wireless LAN system, and set the channels without
interference.
If interference cannot be avoided, select the same channels as the ones used by the existing
wireless LAN system.
Fig. 1 shows the above flow to be followed for establishing the settings.

Guidelines for operations with a multiple DR Wireless systems


Since, in the case of a multiple number of DR Wireless systems, the probability that more than
one image transfer will take place at the same time is considered to be low, set all the DR
Wireless systems to the same channel by following the flow shown in Fig. 1 when operation
will not call for images to be transferred at the same time or when delays in image transfer are
permissible.
However, in cases where multiple DR Wireless SYSTEM are to be installed in proximity and
images tend to be transferred at the same time, consider each DR Wireless SYSTEM as an
existing wireless LAN system and, following the sequence shown in Fig. 1, set different
channels for each of the DR Wireless SYSTEM as far as this is possible.

*1
: In the 2.4 GHz band it is not possible to specify two non-interfering channels in HT40.
*2
: In the 5 GHz band the channel pairs are predetermined and there is no way to set the same primary
channel only. In contrast, in the 2.4 GHz band it is possible to specify either of two channels for each
primary channel, such as 6CH below 2CH or 6CH above 10CH.

Checkpoints when setting the channels

Checkpoints when checking out existing wireless LAN systems


When checking out the conditions under which existing wireless LAN systems are being used to
install the systems, it is possible that systems are available under which the channels are
automatically set rather than having fixed channels for the existing system. For this reason, the
administrator of the facility concerned who is conversant with the conditions under which the
wireless LAN systems are used should be consulted. Care is required since if only the signal
conditions during installation have been measured, the automatic setting of the channels may
cause channels which are different from the ones identified during installation to be used.
If possible, in setting the DR Wireless SYSTEM channels, it is desirable to ask that fixed
channels be used for the existing wireless LAN systems and that the channels be set in such a
way that no parts of the frequencies used will overlap.
-3-
2. Installation procedures

Checkpoints concerning the effects on existing wireless LAN systems


When a DR Wireless SYSTEM and an existing wireless LAN system share the same frequency,
care is required since the wireless communication of the DR Wireless SYSTEM will adversely
affect the existing wireless LAN system.
If, for instance, a DR Wireless SYSTEM shares the same channels with a device for which the
communication timing is critical or with a device requiring a data rate above a specific level, the
image transfer of the DR Wireless SYSTEM may interfere with the normal operation of the
other device.
Particular care is required when the frequencies used overlap in part because the resulting
effects may be significant.

Concerning the effects from existing wireless LAN systems


When checking out the channels used by the existing wireless LAN system, the effect on the
image transfer time is believed to be minimal at a signal strength of around -70 dBm. However,
since this value of -70 dBm is a rough value obtained from experiments, it is essential that
images be transferred and that it be checked that there are no effects.
Particular care is required when the frequencies used overlap in part because the resulting
effects may be significant.

Reference information:
If the signal strength (dBm) cannot be measured using a software application provided with the wireless
LAN adapter or notebook PC, it is possible to view this strength in a simplified manner using the free
“inSSIDer” tool.

6.2 System installation procedures
This section broadly divides up the installation procedures by how the installation location (regular
radiography room or mobile X-ray system), operation mode (standard synchronization mode, non
generator connection mode) and communication method (wireless communication, wired
communication or wireless & wired communication) are combined, and it describes each of these
procedures.
The major difference in the installation procedure when it comes to the operation mode (standard
synchronization mode, non generator connection mode) is that the X-ray interface box need not be
connected in the non generator connection mode whereas it is necessary to connect it in the standard
synchronization mode.

7.3.4 Wiring unit (WU-3A) connections

The detector is equipped with an external connector which enables a wired connection using the
wiring unit.
These connections need not be undertaken when the detector will be used with a wireless
connection only.

The wiring unit is used when a wired connection is used, and it supports imaging while still
installed in the Bucky unit of the reclining table or upright stand.
By establishing a wired connection, communication is performed and power is supplied through
the detector cable so this kind of connection can be used if the communication line is unstable
with a wireless connection or as a backup connection when the battery does not have a sufficient
charge.
It is necessary to install the battery in the detector even when a wired connection has been
established.

Detector

[Description of functions]
If the detector cable has been connected while the detector is operating with a wireless
connection (driven by the battery) and while the power of the AC/DC box is on, operation will
switch to the wired connection (the detector will be powered from an external source). At the
same time, the charging of the battery installed in the detector will start when the detector is
powered from an external source. However, the battery charging is stopped temporarily during
radiography.
Operation will switch to the wired connection (the detector is driven by the battery) if the power
of the AC/DC box is turned off while the detector is operating with a wired connection (while it
is powered from an external source). At the same time, the charging of the battery installed in
the detector will stop.
If the detector cable has been disconnected from the detector while the detector is operating
with a wired connection (while it is powered from an external source) and while the power of
the AC/DC box is on, operation will switch to the wireless connection (the detector will be
driven by the battery).
*For a description of the functions which are available during switching between wired and
wireless connections, refer to “s12034-007 Automatic wireless/wired switching” in the
Description of New Functions V2.10 for CXDI Control Software NE.

7.5.3 Overview of non generator connection imaging

Starting with CXDI Control Software NE V2.10, non generator connection imaging is supported
in environments where only detectors (CXDI-701G/701C) that support non generator
connection are used.
When the detector is operated with non generator connection imaging, use of the ready indicator
is recommended.

*The following points must be borne in mind during operation in the non generator connection
mode.
▪ For a description of the detailed settings of the non generator connection mode, refer to
“Appendix N3. Non generator connection operation in Setting Reference of the CXDI
Control Software NE Service Manual”.
▪ For details on the operation methods during operation in the non generator connection
mode, refer to “Automatic X-ray imaging” in the User Operation Manual.
▪ When using a 34 lp/cm grid and 40 lp/cm grid in the non generator connection mode, the
grid must be installed in such a way that the grid stripes are parallel to the longer sides of
the 701G/701C detector.
▪ During operations in the non generator connection mode, only a detector (CXDI-
701G/701C) which supports non generator connection can be used, and it is not possible to
use a detector which does not support this. When a detector which does not support non
generator connection has been set for the workspace, an error (F040300053) will result
when CCS is started.
▪ The maximum X-ray exposure time in the non generator connection mode is as follows.
1000 ms or less (Standard setting)
3000 ms or less (Long exposure is set)
▪ If the exposure dosage is insufficient, artifacts may occur on the images.
In cases like this, increase the tube current. If it is not possible to increase the tube current,
the tube voltage can be increased instead to resolve the problem.
▪ When the exposure field has been narrowed down and images have been taken (such as
when the image of one finger has been taken), artifacts may occur at the top and bottom
edges of the exposure field.

- 58 -
2. Installation procedures
In cases like this, set to an exposure field which is wide enough for the diagnosis area
concerned.
▪ When the detector is exposed to the X-rays before it is set to exposure now ready (Ready
status) or immediately before it transitions to the ready status, the X-rays may not be
detected and the images may not be displayed after they have been taken.
The electrical charge will remain accumulated in the detector when the detector is not in
the Ready status and exposure is undertaken by mistake so when the next images are taken,
the “effects retained on the images” or “X-rays cannot be detected” event may occur. In
this case, it is necessary to refresh the accumulated charge by pressing the Refresh button
on the GUI. (For details on the Refresh button, refer to 7.5.5 Refresh button.)

*Precautions for non generator connection operations


▪ When the detector is exposed to the X-rays (by mistake) even before it is set to exposure
now ready (Ready status) or immediately before it transitions to the ready status so the
operator must always check visually that exposure now ready (Ready status) has been
established for the detector. Therefore, in order to prevent exposure by mistake in cases
where operation is performed using non generator connection, use of the ready indicator is
highly recommended.

7.7 Confirming image capture during non generator connection


operation
If you use the non generator connection function, you need to provide the user with a
description of the non generator connection function and how to operate it. You also need to
confirm image capture using the non generator connection function according to the usage
environment of the user and to report those results to the user. This section describes those
details.

1. Overview describing non generator connection
2. Description of how to operate non generator connection
3. Description of the detection performance of the non generator connection function
4. Detection performance in the characteristic image capturing procedure
5. Confirmation method under actual usage conditions

1. Overview describing non generator connection


The detector, itself, detects X-ray exposure and automatically starts capturing images.
There is no need to connect the X-ray generator and the imaging system.

2. Description of how to operate non generator connection


Refer to the operating manual and learn the operating methods, including the system
configuration and ready indicator.
Non generator connection cannot be performed if “Ready” is not displayed in the GUI screen of
the control software. Before capturing images, confirm that “Ready” is displayed on the GUI or
that the ready indicator LED is lit.

3. Description of the detection performance of the non generator connection function


The detector is sensitive enough to detect X-rays over the normal image capturing range, but it
has the following characteristics with respect to exposure conditions. Understand the
characteristics to set the appropriate exposure conditions.

(1) Detection is easier when there is a larger quantity of X-ray exposure per unit of time.
(2) Detection is sometimes difficult when the X-ray exposure time is extremely short.
(3) Detection is easier when the exposure field is wider.

<Other considerations>
Due to differences in the object of the image being captured as well as the output properties of
the X-ray generator, the detectable range cannot be specified uniformly according to the setting
conditions of the X-ray generator.
(Be sure to check actual usage conditions before actually capturing images)

There is no difference in detection performance between GOS products and Csl products.
(They have equivalent detection sensitivities with respect to exposure conditions that achieve
equivalent image quality.)

Trouble example (1)


If the exposure dosage is insufficient, a horizontal line appears on the images, possibly giving
rise to a difference in level above and below the line.

<Avoidance method>
Increase the tube current. If the tube current cannot be increased, increase the tube voltage.
Increase the exposure field so that it is wide enough.

Trouble example (2)


When the exposure field has been narrowed down and images have been taken (such as when
the image of one finger has been taken), the edges of the exposure field or some parts outside
the exposure range may appear rough.

<Avoidance method>
Increase the exposure field so that it is wide enough.
Increase the tube current. If the tube current cannot be increased, increase the tube voltage.

require external power supply. Moreover, the notebook PC must not be wired to the trunk-line network in
a hospital, either.

2) The network address of a USB wireless LAN adapter (WLAN-LCUSB2458) shall be "Only
192.168.123.1 / 255.255.255.0 is allowable."

3) When connecting a USB wireless LAN adapter (WLAN-LCUSB2458) to a PC, you are recommended
to connect it to the port of "USB2.0."
* When the USB wireless LAN adapter (WLAN-LCUSB2458) was connected to the USB 3.0 port of
the PC once, the phenomenon that the communication with the detector becomes unstable (such
as the detector was not recognized, or the wireless connection was not restored automatically
after the USB wireless LAN adapter was removed and inserted.)
The phenomenon, however did not occur with the USB 3.0 port of another PC. In addition, the
phenomenon did not recur after that at all. As a result, we are not sure whether the problem was
caused by the USB 3.0 or not. However, considering the risk of recurrence of this phenomenon, if
you need to use the USB 3.0 as the connection port on site, please be very careful about the
behavior.

4) In order to perform wireless connection of a detector in 5 GHz band, you need a USB wireless LAN
adapter (WLAN-LCUSB2458).

5) When you have set up a built-in LAN port and an Ether-USB adapter individually, be careful not to
mix them.
(Do not connect the main LAN to the built-in LAN port that was set up to be connected to a detector.)

2. Installation procedures
7.10 Using the detector in multiple radiography rooms
Only in an environment in which the service technician has installed this product (701 series detector) in
a multiple number of radiography rooms can the user carry the detector into each of these rooms and use
it. For this to happen, a link (recognition/connection) must have been established with the Image
Capture Computer installed in each radiography room and the communication line must have been
established ahead of time. (At the same time, the settings essential for CXDI Control Software NE must
also be selected.)
* When the detector is to be taken from X-ray room 1 into X-ray room 2 and used in
room 2, first its power must be turned off and then turned back on, then the link
(recognition/connection) must be established for the ready indicator unit in X-ray
room 2, and finally the settings selected for the detector must be changed. When the
detector is to be taken back to X-ray room 1 from X-ray room 2 and used in room 1,
first its power must be turned off and then turned back on, and then the link
(recognition/connection) must be established.
* The settings will be retained even when the power of the detector has been switched off. The
link (recognition/connection) need not be established when the detector is to be used by the
same system. However, the link (recognition/connection) will need to be established again if
the settings have been erased due to trouble of some kind.

55G/55C and 60G/60C) are also being used. However, care must be taken since the following restrictions
apply.

Restrictions:
 Since none of the existing models except for the CXDI-701 series of detectors support the non
generator connection mode, the non generator connection mode cannot be used in a system
environment where an existing model is connected. Consequently, use is restricted to operations in
the standard synchronization mode only.
 CXDI Control Software NE Ver.2.10 and up must be used. Furthermore, check the software
compatibility list and, if required, update the firmware to the version which is compatible with CXDI
Control Software NE Ver.2.10 or up.

7.12.2 Signals and their functions for connection with the X-ray generator

<X-ray sync signals>


Signal Description of function
X-ray exposure signal
This signal indicates that the X-ray exposure command has been issued at the
X-ray generator.
The signal must be held for at least the TPREP period.
If it is held less than the TPREP period, the detector ready signal (RX_COM) will
not be output. If RX_REQ has been negated during this period, approximately
one second will be required in a worst-case scenario until operation is enabled
again.
Time taken for RX_COM to be asserted after RX_REQ has been received from
the X-ray generator:
TPREP………………………………………………min.0 max.300 ms
RX_REQ
Since the images taken are read from the sensor using the RX_REQ negation
(or RX_COM timeout) as the trigger, the RX_COM timeout will serve as the
trigger if RX_REQ is not negated. This means a delay in the start of reading
and, as a result, it also means a delay in the image display timing.
It is recommended that the specifications call for RX_REQ to be negated
in tandem with the completion of X-ray exposure.

Time taken for RX_REQ to be negated after X-ray exposure is completed:


TRX_REQ_NEG…………………………………...min.0 max.100 ms
* If this is not satisfied, the image display timing will be delayed.
Detector ready signal
After the X-ray exposure signal (RX_REQ) has been received from the X-ray
generator, the CXDI system checks whether the preparations for imaging have
been completed, and if they have been completed, it outputs this signal to the X-
ray generator.

Time taken for X-ray exposure after RX_COM assertion:


RX_COM
TPRE_DELAY…………………………………….min.0 max.100 ms
* If this is not satisfied, the imaging time is reduced.

Time taken for X-ray exposure to stop after RX_COM stop:


TPOST_DELAY……………………………………min.0 max.100 ms
* If this is not satisfied, the images will be adversely affected by shading and
other trouble.

- 109 -
2. Installation procedures

Connections between DR Wireless system and X-ray generator

Connection conditions
1. The X-ray exposure signal line (including the switching mechanisms) must be insulated, and the

4. Repair Guide

1. Restrictions on disassembly and repair work


The following restrictions are set in place in order to prevent unnecessary trouble from being
encountered in the course of the disassembly and repair work.

• Parts and areas not described in the repair guide must not be disassembled or repaired.
• The discrete parts (such as the electrical boards) described in the parts catalog must not be
disassembled or repaired.

2. Precautions

2.1 Repair and maintenance inspections


In order to ensure safety and give full rein to performance, the repair and maintenance
inspection and other such work must NOT be undertaken by any individuals who have not
undergone the service training.

2.2 Removal of external covers


Before opening the external covers (X-ray interface box, AC/DC box) for the purposes of repair
and maintenance inspection and other such work, the power must be turned off without fail in
order to ensure safety.
The equipment must NOT be touched with wet hands since electric shocks may result.

Before attempting to perform the repair work, the static charged in the bodies of the individuals
undertaking the work must be discharged, and only after this must the work be carried out.
Similarly, if the PCBs and cable connectors are to be touched when replacing the detector cable,
the static in the bodies of the individuals undertaking the work must be discharged, and only
after this must the work be carried out.

2.3 Confirmation after PCB replacement


After replacing a PCB, do not fail to confirm conduction between the exposed copper traces at
PCB screw securing holes and the case by using an electrical tester. Some PCBs have ground
patterns (exposed copper traces) near the screw securing holes, and these are intended to
establish an electrical connection to the case when the screws are in place. Therefore, after
securing the PCB on the case with the screws, make sure to measure the resistance value
between the ground patterns (exposed copper traces) near the screw securing holes and an
unpainted portion of the case (another screw hole in the case, a ground terminal, etc.) to confirm
conduction (resistance value: 0.1 Ω or less).

4. PCA-FE-M255 board firmware and FPGA updating and


recovery

4.1 PCA-FE-M255 board firmware and FPGA updating


If the software (CXDI Control Software NE or CXDI Controller RF) has been installed in the
Image Capture Computer, the operations for the PCA-FE-M255 board firmware and FPGA
updating can be performed using the Ferry type FPD maintenance tool which is a service tool.
The updating is performed while power is supplied using the battery or wiring unit. Since the
pre-updated program will continue to run even after the updating, booting is initiated using the
new program either by removing the battery and re-installing it or by turning the power off and
then back on. For details of the operating procedure to update the firmware and FPGA using the
ferry type FPD maintenance tool, refer to the separate “CXDI Control Software NE” service
manual.

4.2 PCA-FE-M255 board firmware and FPGA recovery


A boot switch is provided near the battery connector of the detector for recovery purposes when
the data cannot be written correctly for some reason during the updating of the PCA-FE-M255
board firmware or FPGA, resulting in trouble with the board operation.
Follow the steps below to boot operation in the backup mode.

1) Remove the battery.


2) Set the boot switch to the backup mode.
3) Install a battery which has been charged.
* Updating is possible only when the remaining battery charge level is 60% or more.
Updating is recommended using a battery with a full charge.
4) With a wired connection using the wiring unit, connect the detector and AC/DC box using
the detector cable, and set the power of the AC/DC box to ON.
5) Press the power switch of the detector for at least a second to turn on the unit’s power.

Operation now starts up using the backup firmware and backup FPGA. When the power is
turned on with the boot switch at the backup mode setting, the backup code firmware is loaded
into the SDRAM, and operations are performed. With the backup firmware, the FPGA config
data for backup is written directly to the FPGA internally, and operation starts up.
NOTE: During startup from the backup code, the LINK LED (blue-green) blinks, its
brightness changing gradually. The LED stops blinking when startup is complete, so it
is necessary to wait at least 30 seconds.

The firmware or FPGA updating can be performed using the service tool while in the backup
mode boot status.

- 15 -
4. Repair Guide

After updating has been completed in the backup mode boot status, follow the steps below for
booting in the normal mode.

1) Hold down the power switch of the detector for at least five seconds to turn the unit’s power
OFF.
2) With a wired connection using the wiring unit, turn off the power of the AC/DC box.
3) Remove the battery.
4) Return the boot switch to the normal mode setting.
5) Connect a battery with a full charge again.
6) With a wired connection using the wiring unit, turn on the power of the AC/DC box.
7) Press the power switch of the detector for at least a second to turn on the unit’s power.

When the power is turned on with the boot switch at the normal mode setting, the normal code
firmware is loaded into the SDRAM, and operations are performed.
* When booting the normal mode after the backup mode booting, check the versions of the
firmware and FPGA from the Ferry type FPD maintenance tool and perform update to
have the right combination of them.

5. PCA-XIF board firmware updating and recovery


5.1 PCA-XIF board firmware updating

5.1.1 Introduction

The PCA-XIF firmware incorporates an http server to enable its management and control to be
operated via a web browser. This section described the operating procedure for updating the
firmware from the web browser.
The PCA-XIF board has two code areas—one for the normal codes and one for backup code—
as areas where the firmware is stored. The backup codes are positioned at the head of the ROM
while the normal codes are stored in an intermediate area of the ROM. When the power is
turned on, the backup code initializing routine boots, and the backup code body boots when the
normal codes have been erased for some reason or when the BOOTSEL switch on the board has
been pressed. Unless other specific action is taken, this routine boots the normal code body.
For regular updating, operation is performed in such a way that only the normal codes are
updated. This has the effect of preventing the board from failing to boot since the backup codes
at the ROM head are preserved even if a power failure should occur during updating, for
example. The only time when the backup codes are updated is in special situations such as when
a fatal bug is found in the backup codes.
This section describes the procedure for updating both the backup codes and normal codes, but
unless otherwise specified, the backup codes should not be updated.

5.1.2 Basic operations performed using web browser

The PCA-XIF management screen can be accessed by inputting the IP address of the PCA-XIF
board in the URL field of the web browser. When the board is shipped from the manufacturing
plant, the IP address is 192.168.100.96 so this is the address which is normally input. When the
address has been changed from this default setting, input the new address.
If the IP address which has been set is no longer known, turn on the power while pressing the
BOOTSEL switch on the board (or press the RESET switch): The backup codes are forcibly
booted, and the IP address is set to 192.168.100.96.
* This operation is referred to as the “forced backup boot operation.” For details on the
actual operations and the precautions to be heeded, refer to “5.2.2 Forced backup boot
operation.”

When the screen has been accessed successfully by the web browser, the top page is displayed.
When the link on the page is clicked, the management and control pages are displayed. If, when
an attempt has been made to display a page using the web browser, a screen such as the one
shown below requesting that the password be input has appeared, input the user name and

To update the normal codes, do not make any changes in the “ROM Area” input field, and click
the “Browse” button to select the firmware file. Then click the UPDATE button.
* The file of the firmware used has the “.ehex” extension.
* After clicking the UPDATE button, it will take 10 to 20 seconds for the updating to be
completed.

When updating has been completed successfully, the “XIF firmware update was successfully
done” screen appears.

5.1.5 Checking after updating that the updating has been reflected

Return to the top page of the web browser, click the “status view” link, check the firmware
version (running), and check that the version in the normal area (Flash #1) has been updated.
* At this stage, however, the original version of the firmware is still operating (the
“running” operation remains unchanged). Operation is started by the updated firmware
after the power is next turned on (or the RESET switch is pressed).

5.1.6 (Reference) Updating the backup codes

The procedure used to update the backup codes is virtually the same as the procedure for the
normal codes. To update the backup codes, except for inputting “flash0” (half-size lower-case
characters with no spaces) in the “ROM Area” input field, follow the same procedure as for the
normal codes. When the updating has been completed successfully, check that the version in the
backup area (Flash #0) has been updated.
* However, since the only time when the backup codes are updated is in special situations
such as when a fatal bug is found in the backup codes, the backup codes should not be
updated unless otherwise specified.
* Even when operation has been booted from either the backup area or normal area, the
firmware has the ability to rewrite the ROM data by itself. Therefore, if the firmware
ends up booting, it can be rewritten by communication between the PC and PCA-XIF
board without the use of a special tool (programmer). However, since a board whose
backup area is empty or whose data has been damaged cannot be booted, it will be
necessary to write the firmware using a programmer.

5.1.7 (Reference) Concerning the PC and network connections

The Ethernet interface of the PCA-XIF board does not have a function for automatic
crossover/straight LAN cable adjustments (AUTO-MDI/MDI-X function) so the switching hub
with an AUTO-MDI/MDI-X function must be used between the PC and PCA-XIF board. If the
board is to be connected directly to the PC, a crossover cable must be used.
The default IP address of the PCA-XIF board is 192.168.100.96/255.255.255.0, and the IP
address of the PC used to communicate with the PCA-XIF board must have the IP address that
belongs to the same network. (Recommended address: 192.168.100.10/255.255.255.0)

5.1.8 (Reference) Concerning telnet connections

Subsequent to Windows Vista, telnet which is the PC application for logging in to the PCA-XIF
board is not installed under the standard setup. However, a telnet connection with the PCA-XIF
can still be established by using TeraTerm whose installation is recommended using the
software (CXDI Control Software NE or CXDI Controller RF) setup.
When TeraTerm is to be used, first start up TeraTerm. Now, on the setting screen, set TCP/IP as the
connection method, the IP address of the PCA-XIF board as the host address, Telnet (change from the
default of SSH) as the Service, and 23 (default) as the port number. Then press OK to initiate the telnet
connection.
When the telnet client is to be used, select [Control Panel] → [Programs] → [Windows functions enable
or disable], and enable [telnet client]. Then start the command prompt, input the “IP address of the telnet
PCA-XIF board”, and establish the telnet connection.
The login prompt can be input simply by pressing return without entering the login name or password.
When XIF_GUEST> appears, login is completed. To log out, use the “bye” command.

5.2 PCA-XIF board firmware recovery

5.2.1 Introduction

It is possible for the firmware in the normal area to be erased or damaged if the updating has
failed because a communication error occurred while the normal area firmware was being
updated or because the power of the X-ray interface box was turned off.
If the normal area firmware has been erased, the backup code body can be booted by the backup
code initializing routine when the power is turned off and then back on so the firmware can be
updated again.
However, if the normal area firmware has been damaged, the backup code body will not be
booted simply by turning the power off and then back on, and it will be necessary to forcibly
boot the backup codes.
This section describes how to perform the forced backup booting operation and also the
precautions to be heeded.

5.2.2 Forced backup boot operation

If the normal area firmware has been damaged, the firmware in the backup area can be forcibly
booted by operating the switches on the board. The operations undertaken for forced backup
booting are described below.

1) Start pressing the RESET switch and BOOTSEL switch on the PCA-XIF board at the same
time.
2) With the BOOTSEL switch still held down, release the RESET switch first.
3) Wait for one second, and then release the BOOTSEL switch.

The STATUS LED blinks


during backup booting. SW2 (BOOTSEL switch)

SW1 (RESET switch)

When the firmware has been booted as a result of taking the steps above, the IP address and
MAC address are set to the default values.
[Default settings]
IP address : 192.168.100.96
Subnet mask : 255.255.255.0
Default gateway : 0.0.0.0
MAC address : 00:1E:8F:CA:87:80

* Since the IP address and MAC address (separate values different from 00:1E:8F:CA:87:80)
written in the flash memory are displayed as the IP address and MAC address indicated in the
network settings on the Status View screen for the Web browser, the default values will not be
displayed even if forced backup start is implemented.

* Even after forced backup start has been implemented, the original IP address and separate
MAC address are stored on the flash memory so the original addresses will be restored when
normal start is initiated.

- 21 -
4. Repair Guide

Since a separate MAC address is written for the PCA-XIF board, care is required when
proceeding with forced backup booting.
* Since the operating system of the PC remembers the separate MAC address of the PCA-
XIF board, the PC tries communicating with the default MAC address of the PCA-XIF
board while the separate MAC address remains valid, and communication may fail. For
details on how to avoid this kind of situation, refer to “5.2.3 Concerning ARP clear for
the PC.”

5.2.3 Concerning ARP clear for the PC

On the PC, open the command prompt, and execute the following command:

arp∆-d∆* (where ∆ is a half-size space)

The above arp command has the effect of clearing the separate MAC address of the PCA-XIF
board stored in the memory of the PC’s operating system and of re-initiating the inquiry. Unless
this step is taken, even though the MAC address of the board is switched to the default value by
the forced backup boot operation, the PC will still try communicating to the separate MAC
address used before the switch, and no further communication may be possible by the telnet
terminal or web browser.
* The operating system of the PC stores the IP address and MAC address correspondence
table in the memory, and reset is initiated when the PC is rebooted or there has been no
communication for a certain period of time. This means that it is not always necessary to
execute the ARP command. It is necessary only when communication is to be performed
immediately to a different MAC address using the same IP address. It may also be
necessary after the PCA-XIF board has been replaced when the IP address matches and
communication is to be tried immediately.

In a PC using Windows Vista or a later operating system, an error results when the above
command is simply executed even if the user is the administrator. To execute the command
correctly, the command prompt for executing the arp command must be booted in the “Run as
administrator” mode.
To boot the command prompt in the “Run as administrator” mode, proceed as follows: Select
[All Programs] → [Accessories] → right-click [Command Prompt] → then select “Run as
administrator” on the menu that appears.

5.3 Other reference information

5.3.1 Changing the IP address of the PCA-XIF board

The IP address of the PCA-XIF board can be changed or checked using the “ipadr” command in the
telnet connection status.

Example 1: When changing the IP address from “192.168.100.96” to “192.168.100.97”

XIF_GUEST>ipadr∆-ip∆192.168.100.97 (where ∆ is a half-size space)


* The power must be turned off and turned back on for the new setting to be reflected.
* To set the IP address of the PCA-XIF board into the detector, start the AP/LNK
configuration tool of Service Tool, and take the following steps.
1) Input the IP address (192.168.100.97 in this case) of the PCA-XIF board which has
been changed to the X-ray interface address on the Configuration tab screen, and
press the “Save” button.
2) Bring the infrared communication area of the detector close to the infrared
communication unit, and proceed with the LINK operation.

(Commentary)
After “ipadr-ip 192.168.100.97” has been input, the “New setting takes effect after power cycling”
message is displayed. Before turning the power back on, input “ipadr,” and when the current status is
checked, “192.168.100.96” will be displayed for Current and “192.168.100.97” for the flash memory.
At this point in time, it is clear that only “192.168.100.97” has been written in the flash memory and that
the new setting has not been reflected.

Screen on which to change and check the IP addresses

4. Repair Guide

When the PCA-XIF board is now accessed from the Web browser and the details of the network
settings are checked, a display similar to the one shown below appears, and it is clear that the setting in
the flash memory has been changed, and the display now reflects this change.

Screen on which to check the change in the IP address using the web browser

Example 2: When changing the IP address to the default “192.168.100.96”

XIF_GUEST>ipadr∆-default (where ∆ is a half-size space)


* The power must be turned off and turned back on for the new setting to be reflected.
* To set the IP address of the PCA-XIF board into the detector, start the AP/LNK
configuration tool of Service Tool, and take the following steps.
1) Input the IP address (192.168.100.96 in this case) of the PCA-XIF board which has
been changed to the X-ray interface address on the Configuration tab screen, and
press the “Save” button.
2) Bring the infrared communication area of the detector close to the infrared
communication unit, and proceed with the LINK operation.

5.3.2 Obtaining the PCA-XIF board log

The PCA-XIF board is provided with a 3-megabyte log memory. In situations where trouble has
occurred, for instance, the log of the PCA-XIF board can be obtained by clicking on the “log download”
link on the web browser top screen of the PCA-XIF board.

Note:
When the “log download” link is clicked, the “Open/Save” dialog box is displayed. If too much time is
now taken to input the storage location, only the initial part of the log details and not enough information
may be obtained. The time permitted for the input operation is about 30 seconds. If the amount of the
log information which has been saved is correct, the file size indicated on the “Open/Save” dialog box
and the size of the file actually saved will match. Therefore, when obtaining the log, it must be checked
whether these two file sizes match.
Reference:
When the log memory becomes full, the log information is successively erased starting with the oldest,
and the latest information is written in its place. This means that the log memory can always be expected
to be nearly full (2.8 to 3 megabytes) with the log of the PCA-XIF board log which is actually used.

Action taken to remedy DR Wireless SYSTEM trouble


This chapter describes the symptoms of the trouble which may conceivably occur in the DR
Wireless SYSTEM and the suspected causes of the trouble. If trouble has developed in units other
than the detector (such as the X-ray interface box or AC/DC box), repairs can be undertaken on
the market using the service parts.
Since there are no parts which can be replaced on the market in the event that trouble has
developed in the detector, carry out the checks based on the instructions given in this chapter to
determine whether the trouble that has occurred is in the detector.
The work done at the hospital or clinic is defined as the primary response, the work done in the
office of the sales company as the secondary response, and the work done at Canon Inc. as the
tertiary response.

1. Primary response
This work is done at the hospital or clinic by the service engineer of the sales company or medical
engineer (ME).
The work of checking out the detector involves checking the wireless communication, checking
the wiring connections and collecting the data*1 on the factors involved in the trouble that has
occurred. When it has been confirmed that the trouble is in the detector by the primary response,
the unit is exchanged for an detector owned by the sales company which is loaned out, and after
the data required has been collected*1, the detector with the trouble is sent to the sales company.
When trouble has occurred in the wired connection, the detector cable is replaced.
*1
For details on the data collected, refer to “4. Collecting data when trouble has occurred.”

2. Secondary response
This work is done at the office of the sales company.
The service engineer of the sales company checks on-site that there is something wrong with the
functions or performance of the detector based on checking whether the data collected at the time
of the primary response is sufficient and based on the work which has been carried out.
As soon as it has become clear to the sales company that the trouble is in the detector, details of
the detector concerned, the collected data and work carried out up to the point where it was
determined that the trouble that occurred was in the detector are entered on the inquiry sheet, and
this sheet is sent to Canon Inc.
However, only sales companies that have received repair training for the detector (internal parts &
external cover replacement) are allowed to repair the detector. If the detector is repaired in the
office of a sales company, refer to the separately-issued internal parts replacement
manual/external cover replacement manual.

3. Tertiary response
This work is done by Canon Inc.
On-site checks are carried out based on the data collected and work carried out up to and
including the secondary response.
Repairs are undertaken as soon as it has been confirmed that the trouble is in the detector.

* Checkpoints when conducting the checks

In order to ensure accuracy in identifying in which unit the trouble occurred, what must be
done without fail if the trouble has been resolved by replacing the unit is to replace the new
unit with the original unit and verify that the trouble recurs.

2. Primary response
The work done at the hospital or clinic constitutes the primary response. Only service engineers or
medical engineers (ME) are allowed to do this work. When service engineers are to pay service
calls to hospitals or clinics, it is recommended that they take with them the tools listed below and
a detector which the sales company owns and which can be loaned out. What must be done
without fail if the trouble has been resolved by replacing the unit is to replace the new unit with
the original unit and verify that the trouble recurs.

• Notebook computer purchased on the market (incorporating the IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n
specification): Used to check the wireless environment when trouble with wireless
communication has occurred
• Large storage media (at least 100 GB recommended): To save the collected data
• Detector
• Wiring unit (WU-3A)
• Ready indicator unit (or infrared data communication unit)
• Wireless LAN access point

Described below are the symptoms of the trouble which may conceivably occur at hospitals and
clinics and the suspected causes of the trouble.

[When infrared communication link (detector recognition) is not possible]

Symptom (1):
The detector was recognized using infrared communication, but the three LEDs on the detector
failed to light (for about 1 second).

Suspected causes:
• Defective connection between the image capture computer and ready indicator unit
• Problem in work environment (the unit must not be located close to a monitor or installed in an
environment where signals are reflected)
• LNK Controller does not start up
• AP/LNK configuration tool is improperly set (settings for the COM port of the connect tab, etc.)
• Trouble with ready indicator unit (or infrared data communication unit)
• Trouble with FPC-UIF board (board inside detector)
• Trouble with PCA-WM-DB board (board inside detector)

Conduct checks based on the suspected causes listed above or replace the unit.

Symptom (2):
• The three LEDs of the detector lighted up (for about 1 second) with infrared communication and
the detector was recognized successfully, but the blue-green LED failed to light.

Suspected causes:
• The power of the access point has not been turned on.
• Incorrect setting of the access point using the AP/LNK configuration tool

Conduct checks based on the suspected causes listed above.

6. Troubleshooting

[When wireless communication trouble has occurred]


Symptom (1): Level 0 appears as the signal strength display on GUI. Alternatively, the signal
strength level is not stable.
Symptom (2): It takes time to display a preview image.
Symptom (3): It takes time to transfer the data of the images taken.
Symptom (4): The three (or two) LEDs of the detector blink.

Suspected causes:
• The X-ray imaging room is not tightly sealed (or the door to this room is open, etc.)
• The distance between the access point and detector is too great.
• A structure is blocking communication between the access point and detector.
• There is a thermal therapy device, laser knife, cordless telephone, etc. near the detector.
• There is interference with the signals (extraneous signals) of another wireless LAN device.*1
• DR Wireless SYSTEM are installed in two adjacent X-ray imaging rooms, and the images
taken are being transferred by both systems at the same time.*1
• Trouble with PCA-WM-DB board (board inside the detector)
• Trouble with access point*2

Conduct checks based on the suspected causes listed above or replace the unit.
*1
Boot the notebook computer (incorporating the IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n specification), and check
whether the signals (extraneous signals) of another wireless LAN device are detected. If
another wireless LAN signal is detected, make channel settings based on the Channel setting
guidelines.*3
*2
If the wireless communication trouble has been resolved by replacing the access point, replace
the new unit with the original access point to verify that the trouble recurs, and if it does recur,
move on to the secondary response.

* If the wireless communication trouble is not resolved even when the channel setting has been
changed, the following information must be gathered without fail. It is recommended that this
information be recorded as the installation history.
• Wireless environment inside X-ray imaging room (existing wireless LAN environment)
• Signals of other wireless LAN devices detected by the notebook computer inside the X-ray
imaging room
• Surrounding environment (adjacent rooms, corridors, etc.)
• Whether or not DR Wireless SYSTEM are installed in adjacent rooms
• Information of settings established by AP/LNK configuration tool (including the setting
information of any DR Wireless SYSTEM installed in an adjacent room)
• Frequency at which the wireless communication trouble occurs
Reference: If there is interference with strong signals (extraneous signals), it is possible that
X-ray exposure cannot be performed because the RX_REQ signal from the X-ray
generator cannot be recognized.

Refer to “4. Collecting information when trouble has occurred” and collect the information and
files based on the system error items.

(4) Check the lighting statuses of the LEDs on the detector.


(5) Check the LAN cable connections (all the location where LAN cables are used).
(6) Check the types of the LAN cables being used.

* The following actions are to be taken only with wired connections.


(7) Check the detector cable connections (at both the detector end and AC/DC box end).
(8) Replace the detector cable.
(9) Replace the AC/DC box.

If the error has recurred after the above action has been taken, replace the detector.
If the error is resolved after the detector has been replaced, replace the new unit with the original
unit, verify that the trouble recurs, and then send the detector to the office of the sales company
which will proceed with the secondary response.
If the error is not resolved even after the detector has been replaced, consider replacing the image
capture computer.

6. Troubleshooting

[Firmware and FPGA updating with wireless communication takes time]

Suspected causes:
• Wireless communication trouble
• Insufficient battery charge

It is recommended that a wired connection (using the equipment owned and loaned by the sales
company) be used for the firmware and FPGA updating. If updating is to be performed using a
wireless connection, proceed after ensuring that the battery has a full (100%) charge.

[No X-ray exposure possible]

Suspected causes:
• Wireless communication trouble*6
• Incorrect X-ray interface IP address setting established by AP/LNK configuration tool
• Improper connection of X-ray interface cable
• Defective PCA-XIF board (inside the X-ray interface box)
• When X-ray exposure is accidentally performed during non generator connection mode.*7

Conduct checks based on the suspected causes listed above or replace the unit.
*6
If there is interference with signals of another wireless LAN device, it may be a case where the
RX_REQ signal from the X-ray generator cannot be recognized and X-ray exposure is disabled.
In such cases, use a wired connection with the wiring unit, and if X-ray exposure is enabled, it
means that trouble in the wireless communication is responsible for the problem.

3. Secondary response
This work (on-site checks, investigation and checks of collected data) which is done at the office
of the sales company constitutes the secondary response.

[Dealing with trouble]

3.1 Detector
Check whether too much or too little data was collected at the primary response. If there is too
little data, ask for more data to be collected.
The sales company connects a system using its loan equipment (Wireless Detector, access point,
infrared communication unit and image capture computer), and checks whether the operation of
the loan equipment is problem-free. If it is problem-free, it replaces the detector (in which the
trouble occurred) whose problem was not resolved by the primary response with the detector in
the above system.

(1) Connect the detector (in which the trouble occurred) to the DR Wireless SYSTEM on loan.
(2) Using link operation, ensure that the detector is recognized.
(3) Check whether the trouble symptom (wireless communication trouble, error or abnormal
images) recurs.
If the symptom recurs, proceed with step (5).
(4) If the trouble symptom did not occur, consult with Canon Inc.
(5) If the trouble symptom recurred, send the detector to Canon Inc. (for the tertiary response).

* If the trouble does not occur frequently, perform tests to check that the trouble recurs at least
twice of the number of trouble occurrences.

* When requesting a tertiary response to errors or abnormal image trouble, the following
information and data must be sent without fail.
• Installation environment information (CCS version, PC specifications and hardware
configuration, wireless setting information, etc.)
• Files collected by Collection Tool (both at the primary response and secondary response stages)
• Status of detector exterior
• Frequency at which the trouble occurs
• Submission of inquiry sheet (report detailing the work carried out both at the primary response
and secondary response stages)

* When requesting a tertiary response to wireless communication trouble, the following


information and data must be sent without fail.
• Wireless environment inside the X-ray imaging room (existing wireless LAN environment)
• Signals of other wireless LAN devices detected by the notebook computer inside the X-ray
imaging room.
• Surrounding environment (adjacent rooms, corridors, etc.)
• Whether or not DR Wireless SYSTEM is installed in adjacent rooms
• Information of settings established by AP/LNK configuration tool (including the setting
information of any DR Wireless SYSTEM installed in an adjacent room)
• Frequency at which the wireless communication trouble occurs
• Submission of inquiry sheet (report detailing the work carried out both at the primary response
and secondary response stages)

6. Troubleshooting

Reference: Dealing with images with line defect trouble


When line defect (or pixel defect) trouble has occurred, Canon Inc. must decide whether the
defects can be rectified, and if they can be rectified, it re-creates the dp file. This re-created dp file
must be uploaded to the detector without fail.
The dp file must be uploaded from the ferry type FPD maintenance tool. Refer to the CXDI
Control Software NE Maintenance Manual for the operating procedure.

3.2 Access point


Using the equipment on loan, the sales company checks whether the wireless communication
trouble which occurred at the primary response stage recurs.

(1) Connect the access point (in which the trouble occurred) to the DR Wireless SYSTEM on
loan.
(2) Start the AP/LNK configuration tool, and set the access point.
(3) Using link operation, ensure that the detector is recognized.
(4) Check whether the wireless communication trouble which occurred where the system was
installed recurs.
(5) Make inquiries with CISCO on the CISCO support page.

4. Collecting data when trouble has occurred


This section describes which information and files are needed in order to ascertain and analyze the
trouble in the event that system errors, image trouble or image processing errors have occurred. In
the case of wireless communication trouble, the required information set forth in the primary
response and secondary response sections must be collected.

[Projected types of trouble]


A. System connection trouble when installing the system, condition setting trouble, software
trouble, communication trouble
B. Malfunctioning in the electrical and mechanical systems, operational errors, display errors,
image trouble, extraneous noise, image processing errors
C. Mismatching of specifications

○: This indicates essential files; all the files must be collected if this is possible.
If difficulties are posed in collecting all the files because the files are large, then three files
must be collected, namely, the file in the trouble neighborhood, the file at the time of
installation, and the latest file.

△: This indicates non-essential files.


However, these files must be collected if no difficulties are posed in their collection because
of their size.

No.3
After Collection Tool has been started up and the [Exposure image] category has been selected,
the taken images to be collected can be selected using refined-search conditions.
Unlike data files, each image file is large. Therefore, as a basic rule, all the trouble images in
question and the 3 or 4 images immediately before and after the trouble images must be collected.
In the case of an image processing error, as a basic rule, all the trouble images in question and the
images successfully processed in the same imaging areas (same imaging method) must be
collected.
The successfully processed images are collected in order to check the exposure fields and the
differences in the subjects.

No.4
After Collection Tool has been started up and the [QC result] category has been selected, check
the required items on the QC history list to collect the calibration, performance test and
self-diagnosis files.
It is strongly recommended that the calibration, performance test and self-diagnosis imaging be
carried out in a state in which the image trouble has been reproduced.
If difficulties are posed in collecting all the files because the files are large, then three files must
be collected, namely, the file in the trouble neighborhood, the file at the time of installation, and
the latest file.

5. Precautions for performance test and self-diagnosis


imaging
It is possible to use QC Tool (Quality Control Tool) on the CXDI software (CXDI Control
Software NE, etc.) to run calibration, performance test, and self-diagnostic test functions.

Calibration is a function that performs dose checking as well as generating and updating
correction data for adjusting the sensor in order to maintain normal sensor characteristics.
The performance test function exposes an X-ray image with no subject present and compares the
result with the calibration screen data to evaluate sensor performance and determine whether or
not it meets the setting standards.
The self-diagnostic test function can be used to perform a self-test of the sensor only, without
making an exposure using X-rays. It includes test functions such as internal device check, test
pattern check, and offset correction test. Note that the device check function is not available for
still image sensors without Ferry support (CXDI-55G, CXDI-55C, etc.); it is only available on
still image sensors with Ferry support (CXDI-70C, CXDI-80C, etc.).

Listed below are the precautions to be heeded during performance test and self-diagnosis
imaging.

[Performance test]

The performance test only performs Mode 1 (which corresponds to the former Test 1).

• This must be carried out after checking that the system is operating normally after installation.

• Confirm that calibration has previously completed successfully.

• Performance test imaging must be implemented in order to check the conditions resulting after a
system has been newly installed and after the photo timer adjustments have been carried out.
When this is done, the resulting files must be taken back together with the files produced from
the self-diagnosis imaging and stored in a safe place.
* Recording of performance test or self-diagnostic test files can be enabled by starting Collection
Tool from among the service tools, selecting the [QC result] category, and checking the desired
items on the QC history list.

• The entire detector surface must be exposed without a subject to the X-rays under the same
conditions as the calibration conditions where the system is installed.

• When any kind of error has occurred, the calibration must be performed again.

• If the error persists even after performing calibration again, the following must be checked while
referring to the images:
* The entire surface of the detector is appropriately exposed to X-rays.
* The X-ray exposure must be performed properly (there must be no shading anywhere on the
entire detector surface).
* As when performing calibration, the grid is not attached.
* It must be checked that the defects have been rectified properly.

6. Troubleshooting
[Notes on use of a photo timer]
Using a photo timer with a stand mounting, etc., may effect the performance test and cause an
error, depending on the type and mounting configuration of the photo timer. The following may
be to blame for these errors.
• An image of the photo timer may be captured due to geometrical misalignment of the X-ray
generator during calibration.
• The mounting fixture of the photo timer or wires extending from it may be captured in the
calibration image, resulting in a low S/N determination for those portions only.
* Extraneous images, as described above, were captured by conventional SF systems as well, but
the characteristics of the film were such that these images were not visible. Therefore, there is
no problem with the sensor itself. If this kind of error has occurred, the calibration images,
performance test images and also the self-diagnosis images taken at the time concerned must
also be checked.

If the error persists after all of the above checks have been completed, check the following and
then contact Canon Inc.

• Confirm that the phantom image, etc., appears in film or the output of a high-resolution monitor
when images are processed in the normal manner, and clarify whether or not artifacts are being
observed. For example, artifacts can manifest themselves as vertical or horizontal lines, or as
rectangular granularity that obscures a portion of the sensor field.

[Self-diagnosis]

The self-diagnostic test function includes Test A device check, Test B test pattern check (which
corresponds to the former Test 2), and Test E offset correction test (which corresponds to the
former Test 5).

• This must be carried out after checking that the system is operating normally after installation.
• Self-diagnosis imaging for checking the conditions resulting after a system has been newly
installed and after the photo timer adjustments have been carried out must be implemented.
When this is done, the resulting files must be taken back together with the files produced from
the performance test imaging and stored in a safe place.
* Recording of performance test or self-diagnostic test files can be enabled by starting Collection
Tool from among the service tools, selecting the [QC result] category, and checking the desired
items on the QC history list.

[Precautions when errors have occurred]


Test B: If errors have been detected in connection with the test pattern inspection
• When this error occurs, it is possible that the PCA-FE2 board in the detector is not properly
generating a test image or there may be a fault in the image data communication channel.
* Malfunction of PCB (PCA-FE2 board) inside the detector
* Problem in detector cable connection or a broken wire (with a wired connection)

Test E: If errors have been detected in connection with the offset image inspection
• Detector panel trouble or extraneous noise may be to blame.
* If errors have been detected, the calibration images, performance test images and also the
self-diagnosis images taken at the time concerned must also be checked.
If there are many abnormal or defective pixels in the self-diagnosis images, investigate how this
came about.
In the case of extraneous noise, change the position of the detector, and check for changes in the
extent of the resulting effect and the sources of the noise.

If the error persists, the following must be checked, and then Canon Inc. must be contacted.
