Device Configuration Settings

The TechVision Configuration Screen displays TechVision’s QBus Ethernet
subnetwork parameters (IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway), as
shown in Figure 3-4. Notice these three essential configuration parameters
are all expressed in 32 bits divided into four 8-bit sections, each represented
by a decimal number from 0 to 255, separated by a period.

ON TECHVSIONS
CONNECTED TO A
CARESTREAM DRX-1
WORKSTATION: DO
NOT CHANGE THE
DEFAULT IP ADDRESS
(MUST BE SET TO
10.0.1.171)
Figure 3-4. TechVision Configuration Screen

The three essential elements are:
• IP Address - Physical address of the TechVision.
• Subnet Mask - Defines the IP Addresses that can be directly
addressed (called a subnet). For example, if the subnet mask is
set to 255.255.255.0, and the IP address is set to 10.0.0.176,
the only devices that can be connected with this device has to
have an IP Address that begins with 10.0.0.1 and end with
10.0.0.254. Be careful to not use an address outside of this
range for anything in the QBus network that has to be
connected. Note that the normal entry here is 255.255.255.0.
• Default Gateway - The address of the device which connects to
addresses outside of the subnet. In the above example, any
address outside of the 10.0.0.xx range will be sent to this
address where it will be routed to and from its destination. This
address must be within the Subnet as defined by the Subnet
Mask above and be assigned by the network system
administrator.

CAUTION! Do not assign the same IP Address

to two devices on the QBus local area net
(LAN). Doing so will cause data routing con-
flicts and will result in error messages
appearing on the central network computer
console. Obtain the specific IP Address from
the Network System Administrator.
Figure 3-5. Device Setting Service Address Dialog Boxes

(Accessed via "Modify" Buttons from TechVision Configuration Screen)
In order to change the parameters of any of the three address elements, press
the Modify button (see Figure 3-4). An Address Dialog Box for each of the three
parameters (shown above) appears when the respective Modify button is
touched:
1. Make the necessary entries on the specific parameter input screen (i.e., IP
Address, Subnet Mask, or Default Gateway) using the numeric keypad in the
respective Address Dialog Box (see Figure 3-5). Note that an entry above
255 in any box will cause the box to be shown in red and will cause the Enter
key to be disabled. Pressing Back moves back either a character or a box at
a time. Cancel brings you back to the Device Settings Screen.
2. After all desired modifications have been completed on the Device Settings
Screen, press the Save key. The settings will be output to the TechVision.
Apr Configuration Settings
The Apr Configuration Settings (see Figure 3-6) are only used if the TechVi-
sion is connected to a "Q-VISION" type generator control panel. The set-
tings provided include Apr Configuration enable and Q-VISION control panel
physical IP address entry.

Figure 3-6. Generator Configuration Screen - (Setting or Modifying Generator IP

Address)
If TechVision is connected to a Q-VISION type generator, set the "Enabled"
setting to "On", otherwise, this setting should be set to "Off".
The "CM Enabled" field, shown in Figure 3-6, allows the system to be config-
ured for display of the "CM" button on the TechVision operator screen. This
feature must be enabled in both TechVision and Q-Vision APR configuration
menus, to ensure proper synchronization.
NOTE: The CM default mode is "Off", and
when the System is in this mode, the
"CM" button is not displayed on the Tech-
Vision operator screen.
Setting the physical address of the Q-VISION control panel is accomplished

by selecting the Modify button, and entering the IP Address to be assigned
to the Q-VISION in the IP Address dialog box displayed, following the proce-
dures described under Figure 3-5.
Study Management
The Study Management Configuration function allows settings that affect
what is displayed on the Study Management screens. When the Study Man-

agement Configuration button is selected from the FieldTech Options

menu (see Figure 3-2), the following screen appears:
Figure 3-6. Study Management Configuration Screen

The following is a description of each setting available in the Study Manage-
ment Configuration screen:
• Enabled: Must be set to "On" to enable communication with a host
system (a connected Digital Radiographic System’s Computer Work-
station) for transfer of patient information and image settings.
• Service IP Address: Enables the Technician to enter the assigned IP
address of the connected Digital Radiographic System’s Computer
Workstation.
• Display Patient ID: Controls the display of the Patient ID number that
comes from the integrated Digital Radiographic System’s Computer
Workstation, in the appropriate place on the operator display screen.
If set to Off, the area is left blank. This may be useful for HIPAA or
privacy reasons, depending on facility policy.
• Display Patient Name: Controls the display of the Patient Name that
comes from the integrated Digital Radiographic System’s Computer
Workstation, in the appropriate place on the operator display screen.
If set to Off, the area is left blank. This may be useful for HIPAA or
privacy reasons, depending on facility policy.

• Image Preview Enabled: Controls the display of the "preview image"

that comes from the integrated Digital Radiographic System’s Com-
puter Workstation, and displays a thumbnail image on the view but-
ton. If set to Off, the image preview screen does not display and the
thumbnail has the notation "Image Unavailable". This may be useful
for HIPAA or privacy reasons, depending on facility policy.
• Image Preview Timeout: Sets a default time out limit that hides the
Preview Image and reverts back to the screen that was active when
the image was displayed. Settings available are "Infinity" to 60 sec-
onds, in 5 second increments. "Infinity" means no timeout (will not
leave the preview screen), until a key selection is made, or the study
is ended at the Workstation.
Generator Configuration Settings
The Generator Configuration Settings Screen contains the "Generator Func-
tion" enable/disable setting, IP address setting, and the tube angle interlock
setting (disables exposure if the tube is not pointed toward the proper
image receptor.
• The Enabled field is set based upon the type of hand grip (TechVision
or RS-590-LD) and should not be changed.
• Setting the physical address of the Generator (i.e., Q-VISION or
integrated Computer Workstation) is accomplished by selecting the
Generator Configuration button from the "FieldTech Options" screen
(Figure 3-2) to arrive at the screen shown below. Select the Modify
button, and enter the IP Address to be assigned to the Q-VISION or
integrated Computer Workstation in the IP Address dialog box displayed,
following the procedures described under Figure 3-5.

Figure 3-7. Generator Configuration Screen - Setting/Modifying

Generator IP Address
• The Receptor Tube Angle Interlock should normally be set to "On";
in this mode, exposure will be disabled if the tube is not directed to the
proper image receptor (table or wall stand). To disable this function, this
setting should be set to "Off".
Widget Configuration
This function is used to modify the user display screen’s graphical data to cor-
respond with tube support on which TechVision is mounted, (i.e., RS-590, or
QS-550). These settings are pre-configured at the factory and should not be
modified in the field.
NOTE: Performance of the following sys-
tem calibrations depends on the type
tube support (i.e., Model QS-550 Free-
Standing Tube Support, or RS-590 Over-
head Tube Crane) on which TechVision is
installed. Refer to the paragraph corre-
sponding to your tube support type.

RS-590 System Calibration

NOTE: This function is accessible only
when TechVision is installed on a Quan-
tum RS-590 Overhead Tube Crane.
Selecting RS-590 Tubestand Calibration button in the Field Tech Options

menu (see Figure 3-2), displays the RS-590 Tubestand Calibration Menu:
Figure 3-8. RS-590 Tubestand Calibration Menu

This screen offers five choices:
• Vertical 40" Detent - This feature provides a software-driven
detent, when the Tubestand Calibration item ("Vertical 40" Detent")
is set to "On". This functionality also requires that the X-ray tube is
pointed at the radiographic table, and the velocity of the vertical axis
is low and steady. When properly activated, the vertical axis will
stop at the 40" SID position.
• Handle Unlock Vertical Only - The brake release buttons ("pinky"
switches), imbedded in the handles of the TechVision unit, can be
configured to allow vertical movement only when the Tubestand
Calibration screen item is set to "On". Otherwise, the buttons unlock
all linear travel axes.
• Locking Speed Calibration - Adjusts the speed limit for lock
activation (200 mm/s, 175 mm/s, 150 mm/s, or 125 mm/s settings
are available). Note that the faster the limit setting, a more abrupt

"stop" will occur when the tube support is moved to either a transverse or
longitudinal detent.
• Plumb Angle Calibration - The RS-590 Plumb Angle Calibration function calibrates
the TechVision’s tube plumb angulation display.
• SID Height Calibration - The RS-590 SID Calibration function is used to set the
TechVision internal variables to match the hardware that measures the SID.
Locking Speed Calibration
Proceed as follows:
1. When viewing the RS-590 Tubestand Calibration Menu, the current locking speed
setting appears in the Locking Speed field, as shown in the sample screen Figure 3-9.
2. To modify the setting, select the Modify button adjacent to the "Locking Speed" field.
The Locking Speed Setting Sub-screen displays:

3. Select the desired locking speed (125 mm/s, 150 mm/s, 175 mm/s, or 200 mm/s).
The new setting now appears in the Locking Speed field.

Plumb Angle Calibration

Proceed as follows:
1. In the RS-590 Tubestand Calibration Menu, select the Calibrate
button adjacent to the "Plumb Angle" field. Note that the first of
three plumb angle calibration screen appears.
2. Follow the instructions, and then select OK.
3. Follow the instructions, and then select OK for the next two plumb
angle calibration screens.
4. The Final Angle displayed on the bottom of the screen will change
to 0.
5. Rotate the TechVision hand grips to both the +90° and -90° detent
positions and verify the TechVision angle is 90° in each position.

3. Move the tube/hand grip so that a 40" SID is achieved (pull out the
cassette tray and measure 40" SID relative to the cassette). Press
OK.
NOTE: The displayed SID is the truncation of the dis-
tance to the nearest whole inch value. It may be nec-
essary to measure at a fraction of an inch added to
both 10" and 40" measurements so that the whole
inch display on the TechVision more closely matches
other SID measurement and display means. If accept-
able precision cannot be achieved in the display rela-
tive to another, there is the option of turning off the
display (contact Quantum Service Department for
instructions on Widget Configuration Utility) and only
rely on the other SID display means. If the SID display
does not move in concert with the tube/handgrip ver-
tical travel, check the connection path from the height
potentiometer on the RS-590 and the TechVision.
4. Exit to the Main Screen, and verify the SID indication on the
TechVision screen correctly tracks the height of the tube.
This completes the RS-590 specific calibrations, proceed to "Calibrate Touch
Screen" to continue.

QS-550 System Calibration

NOTE: This function is accessible only
when TechVision is installed on a Quan-
tum QS-550 Free-Standing Tube Stand.
Selecting QS-550 Calibration button in the FieldTech Options menu (see

Figure 3-2) displays the QS-550 Tubestand Calibration Menu:

The brake release buttons ("pinky" switches), imbedded in the handles of
the TechVision unit, can be configured to allow vertical movement only
when the Tubestand Calibration screen item is set to ON. Figure 3-15 shows
the "Handle Unlock Vertical Only" parameter is set to OFF. This would allow
all tubestand linear axes to move freely while either imbedded button (in the
handle) is depressed.

Plumb Angle Calibration

The QS-550 Plumb Angle Calibration function calibrates the TechVision’s
tube angulation display. The Plumb Angle Calibration Sub-screens shown in
Figure 3-15 are presented sequentially, as the left-facing, right-facing, and
horizontal criteria (TechVision positioning) are met and accepted ("OK").

Change Date/Time
When the Change Date Time key is selected from the FieldTech Options
Menu (see Figure 3-2), the following screen appears:
Figure 3-16. Set Date Time Screen

As shown above, this screen will be populated with the current date and time.
Use the appropriate buttons to change each setting as desired. When the
Back key is selected, the new settings are saved and the system returns to
the FieldTech Options Screen.

Calibrate Touch Screen

Pressing the Calibrate Touch Screen button in the FieldTech Options menu
(see Figure 3-2) displays the Calibrate Touch Panel Screen:
Figure 3-17. Calibrate Touch Panel Screen

This procedure will reset the calibration of finger press and location on the
screen. When the above screen appears, follow the instructions; press your
finger on the cross as it appears in various positions on the screen, each time
holding it until the cross moves to a different location or the calibration ends.
There is a two-second pause after the calibration ends while the calibration
constants are permanently stored. Note that this function is normally done at
the factory and does not need to be repeated, as TechVision remembers the
settings while the power is off.

COMPLIANCE VERIFICATION PROCEDURES

When a TechVision X-ray Control is added to a Quantum generator system, it is nec-
essary for the assembler to verify conformance in the field. The following paragraphs
provide instructions for assuring the TechVision Remote Control complies with appli-
cable provisions of FDA Performance Standards 21 CFR Sub-Chapter J, Part 1020.
Record the test results on the data sheets provided at the end of this chapter.
All inputs must be accomplished using the TechVision touchscreen for these compli-
ance tests. Only use the generator operator control panel for PREP and EXPOSE.
WARNING! The following procedure involves tak-
ing X-ray exposures. All personnel should be
behind protective barriers. X-rays can be danger-
ous unless proper precautions and procedures are
followed.

OVERVIEW
This section describes various characteristics of the TechVision’s design, functionality,
and compatibility with available mechanical support systems. Figure 4-1 is a high-
level block diagram, which illustrates the four interconnected internal components
built into the TechVision unit, and its connectivity to external devices.
PLATFORM SYSTEM
TechVision is an option available on Quantum's X-ray platforms:
• Quantum Medical Imaging Model QS-550 Free-Standing Tube Stand
• Quantum Medical Imaging Model RS-590 OverHead Tube Crane
It replaces the standard-equipped hand-grip on the above units and provides the fol-
lowing value-added features:
• 10.4", 1024 x 768 dpi, feature rich XGA interactive color touch-screen
• Digital Tube Angle measurement and SID Display
• 10/100Mbps TCP/IP interface
• CAN-BUS interface for control of advanced platforms, Collimators, and DAP
subsystems
• Remote selection and display of generator exposure settings at TechVision
Hand grips via Ethernet communications with the X-ray generator.
• Digital X-Ray image preview/recall
The following paragraphs provide detailed theory of operation of the various
TechVision components. See Chapter 6, DIAGRAMS for system schematics.
THEORY OF OPERATION
OVERALL HARDWARE ARCHITECTURE
The TechVision platform electronics consists of 4 major interconnected
components:
1. TechVision Main Board (AY40-093S)
2. Single Board Computer (AY40-092S)
3. LCD Touchscreen Display (EL31-032)
4. TechVision QS-550 Interface PCB (AY40-094S), used on systems with QS-550
Tubestand
5. Membrane Keypad and Switches

Quantum Medical Imaging, LLC 4-3
TECHVISION MAIN BOARD (AY40-093S)

The TechVision main board provides the following functions:
Power Supply — Main power input (isolated and unregulated), +24 -28 V dc
from the generator or tubestand, is converted through a double output Buck
regulator (U4/U5), to +5 V dc and +12 V dc. Using a dc linear regulator
(U3), +3.3 V dc is created for the Single Board Computer (AY40-092S), and
low voltage microcontroller logic. LED indicators (labeled "12VOK", "3V3 OK",
and "5V OK"), on the TechVision Main PCB (AY40-093S), provide a means for
quickly monitoring the status of these power supplies.
Real-time System Control — The Main Microcontroller (U2), provides real-
time high speed system control of functions, such as CAN-Bus, Keypad/
Switch interface, Inclinometer measurements, and CAN-Bus interface. This
processor is programmed at the factory with firmware to control real-time
functions.
Solid-State Inclinometer — The inclination angle measurement (tube angle)
of the TechVision, and attached X-Ray tube assembly, is determined by a 3-
axis solid-state MEMS sensor (U8), which measures acceleration (in all direc-
tions) due to gravity. Tube angle/inclination is calculated by the Main Micro-
controller (U2) from this data.
Galvanically Isolated CAN-Bus Interface — CAN-BUS and CAN-OPEN commu-
nication between the TechVision and attached components, such as tubes-
tands, tables, cassette trays, automatic collimators, DAP chambers, is
provided by Main Microcontroller (U2), and CAN-BUS physical layer Transmit-
ter (U1). This interface also provides galvanic isolation between the CANBUS
data I/O lines and the TechVision electronics. CAN-BUS interface is provided
on connectors J5 and J6 on the TechVision Main PCB.
Keypad/Switch Interface — The Main Microcontroller (U2), reads all actua-
tions of keys/buttons on the front membrane keypad and handle switches,
and relays the corresponding signals to the Single Board Computer (AY40-
092S), via high speed serial bus and other connected components, such as a
tubestands, via CANBUS interface.
LVDS LCD Interface — The TechVision Main PCB (AY40-093S) provides a
high-speed serial LVDS interface between the Single Board Computer (AY40-
092S) and the LCD Touchscreen Display unit (EL31-032). The LCD LVDS
Interface is formed by U9 and associated components.
Real-time Clock — The TechVision Main PCB (AY40-093S) provides a real-time
clock and calendar that is used by the Single Board Computer (AY40-092S).
The Real-time Clock Subsystem consists of a clock circuit, formed by U10 and
associated components, including battery BT1. This circuit maintains System
date and time when the TechVision is powered off. In the event that the sys-
tem does not keep time when powered off, the battery should be replaced
before any other electrical components are replaced. The estimated life of
the battery is 5 years from date of manufacture.

4-4 Quantum Medical Imaging, LLC
Isolated Ethernet Interface — The TechVision Main PCB (AY40-093) provides

an isolated Ethernet interface between externally connected components,
such as Hospital LAN, DR System and X-Ray Generator, and the Single Board
Computer (AY40-092S).
SINGLE BOARD COMPUTER (AY40-092S)
The TechVision Single Board Computer provides the following functions:
1. Application Level Processor — The Single Board Computer (AY40-092S) con-
tains an ARM Cortex A8 application level processor to run the TechVision
application software, which handles all graphics intensive tasks, including X-
ray preview image transfer and display, touchscreen user interface, real-time
clock interface and display.
2. Memory — The Single Board Computer (AY40-092S) contains all RAM
required to run the TechVision application. No software is stored on the Sin-
gle Board Computer. All software is stored on a removable SD Memory card.
3. SD Card Slot — The Single Board Computer (AY40-092S) contains a microSD
memory card slot to store all the TechVision application software, and the
TechVision operating system. Software updates to TechVision applications
can be loaded via Ethernet connected laptop or via SD Memory card update.
4. Ethernet Interface — The Single Board Computer (AY40-092S), provides an
Ethernet connection to the TechVision Main PCB (AY40-093S), to interface to
external Ethernet connected components, including X-ray Generator, DR Sys-
tem, Hospital LAN.
5. Touchscreen Digitizer Interface — The Single Board Computer (AY40-092S),
provides high speed analog interface to a resistive glass touchscreen digitizer,
installed over the LCD display, to register user touch commands.
LCD TOUCHSCREEN DISPLAY (EL31-032)
The TechVision LCD Display Module provides the following functions:
1. LVDS XGA Display (1024 x 768 pixels) — High resolution, long life, wide view-
ing angle display designed for medical applications.
2. LED — Mercury free, solid-state, backlight providing long life, with minimal
color shift over display life.
3. Touchscreen Digitizer — 4-wire, resistive glass touchscreen digitizer, provides
maximum light transmission. The Digitizer is connected via a 4-pin, flat, flex-
ible cable to the Touchscreen Cable Converter (AY40-093-B), and connected
to TechVision Main PCB (AY40-093S). The Digitizer is hermetically sealed
within the LCD display, and is not field-replaceable separately. The entire
LCD module is replaced as an assembly.
SYSTEM CONTROL
TechVision employs dual parallel processing, within the platform, using two
microcontrollers. The User Interface is handled by a high speed 1 GHz ARM
Cortex [A8] processor, running on the AY40-092S PCB, and provides all

TechVision application touchscreen interface, Windows operating system, and

graphical display functions. The high-speed real-time functions, such as CAN-BUS
communication, real-time inclinometer/tube angle measurement, and keypad
interface, are performed by a high speed ARM Cortex M3 processor, located on
the AY40-093S PCB. The two processors communicate with each other via a high
speed serial bus architecture.
SYSTEM COMMUNICATION
TechVision communicates with the X-ray generator and DR imaging system via
Ethernet. This is accomplished using an Ethernet Switch, which also has an
Ethernet connection to the generator (when equipped with Q-Connect Option).
The Q-Connect Option, facilitates communication between the generator and
other Ethernet-connected devices, such as TechVision. In addition, the
TechVision employs a secondary communication channel for real-time CAN-BUS
Commands, used in controlling connected X-ray tubestands, tables, automatic
collimators, and certain dose area product measurement equipment. The CAN-
Bus communication channel is fully galvanically isolated from any connected
equipment. The high speed CANBus network also provides a means to
synchronize all information across the system, including detector/grid orientation,
source-to-image distance (SID), tube inclination/angle measurements, and many
other parameters.
TECHVISION QS-550 INTERFACE PCB (AY40-094S)

The following section describes the attributes and functionality of the AY40-094S
board, which is present in systems configured for use with the Quantum QS-550
Tubestand.
The TechVision QS-550 Interface PCB provides the following functions:
1. Power Supply: Mains isolated unregulated +24-28 V dc from the generator or
tubestand is input from the tubestand on J7 pins 1-3 and converted through a
single output Buck regulator (U4) to +5 V dc. A Linear Regulator (U3) cre-
ates +3.3 V dc from 5 V dc for low voltage Microcontroller (U2) logic. Addi-
tionally, two available pins of the CANBUS Connector (J5/J6 pins 7,8) are used
to pass power through to the TechVision Main PCB (AY40-093S) via an exter-
nal RJ45 jumper.
2. Real Time System Control: The Main Microcontroller (U2), provides Real time
high-speed system control of functions such as 40-inch and 72-inch SID
Detent switch monitoring, Continuous SID measurements (optional), CAN-
Bus interface, output to control relays for releasing electromagnetic brakes.
This processor is programmed at the factory with firmware to control real
time functions.
3. Galvanically Isolated CAN-Bus interface: CAN-BUS and CAN-OPEN communi-
cation between the TechVision and attached components, such as tubes-
tands, tables, cassette trays, automatic collimators, DAP chambers, is
provided by Main Microcontroller (U2) and CAN-BUS physical layer Transmit-

ter (U1). This interface also provides galvanic isolation between the CANBUS
data I/O lines and the TechVision electronics. CAN-BUS interface is provided
on the TechVision QS-550 Interface PCB (connectors J5 and J6).
4. Isolated SID Detent Input Circuit: The Main Microcontroller (U2) reads all
detent switches (optically isolated by U7 and U8), and will relay these switch
closures to the TechVision Main PCB (AY40-093S), via high speed CAN-BUS.
5. Isolated Output Circuit: The QS-550 Interface PCB (AY40-093S), provides
relay-isolated, dry contact closures, to control up to four electromagnetic
brakes in the QS-550 Tubestand. Relay K1 will unlock the Vertical Brake, K2
unlocks the Tube Angle Brake, K3 unlocks transverse movement, and K4
unlocks Longitudinal movement. These relays are all designed to maintain all
brakes in a locked state (i.e., fail-safe), when they are not energized. The
relays are controlled by Main Microcontroller U2, via commands received over
the CAN-BUS interface from TechVision Main PCB (AY40-093S).

Chapter 5 Service Instructions
OVERVIEW
This chapter is designed to assist the service technician in maintaining the smooth
operation of TechVision Control Panel. The TechVision Control Panel will function reli-
ably when maintained according to the instructions provided in this chapter. Safe
equipment performance requires the attention of service personnel who are specifi-
cally trained and experienced with medical x-ray apparatus. Applicable preventive
maintenance or any repair service should be performed by these skilled individuals.
Failure to follow manufacturer’s or service personnel’s recommendations may result in
serious injury.
WARNING! Personnel engaged in maintenance

activities should exercise normal caution and care
while working with electromechanical equipment.
Before removing or opening any electrical power
panels or covers, verify that the incoming power
supply is turned OFF. In the event maintenance
procedures require power to be supplied to the
unit, extreme care MUST be exercised to insure
the safety of service or other personnel in the
area. Verify equipment is properly grounded
before attempting any electrical operation.
SERVICE MAINTENANCE
WARNING! Always disconnect the equipment

from the main power supply prior to any cleaning.
