10 CONTROL CIRCUITS & SW UTILITIES

10.1 INTRODUCTION

The control electronics of the CLISIS remote tilting table has been designed in order to
control the different movements of the unit as well as to give to the operator the possibility to
manually control the unit.

The unit calibration is carried out by means of the SW utilities the small touch panel (with
LCD display) on the tube side control keyboard and accessing to the Mecall Integrated PC
touch panel.

This last one is used by the operator, in normal mode, to select the different unit
working mode as well to control manually the X-ray detector position and the
generator exposure parameters.

The unit is always operating using the detector with the only exception of the free technique
were the operator can use a standard radiographic cassette.

CLISIS SERVICE MANUAL Section 10 - pag. 1 / 49

10.2 CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

The CLISIS control system is composed of four separate CPU boards connected by
means of a serial link. The Remote Control Desk CPU acts as system manager and
main user interface.

The serial link protocol adopted is a standard ISO CAN.

A hardware controller in accordance with ISO standard ensures proper error free
data transmission.
In particular, for error detection, every transmitter is monitored by its own receiver.

All nodes carry out a cyclic redundancy check (15 bit CRC).
They observe the bit stuffing rule and the message format.
A message failure is also generated when no acknowledge is returned by a node.

Together these functions guarantee a humming distance of 6 and a probability of a

residual errors of < 10 (-13) per transmission.

CLISIS Control Desk CPU BOARD:

It is the main user interface (keyboard and display) control.

This board is responsible for the can bus (communication link) control.

CLISIS MAIN CPU BOARD:

It directly controls all the main motions of the unit with the exclusion of the inherent
SFD and collimator functions that are controlled from dedicated CPU cards.
This card act also as Interface control with the external world (X-Ray generator, TV
chain, etc). The related I/O signals are optically and/or galvanically insulated (opto-
couplers and/or relay).
On this Card are also located the unit On/Off control circuit, these last commanded
from the corresponding pushbuttons are present on the Main Control Desk
keyboard.

CLISIS SFD CPU BOARD:

It directly controls all the function of the SFD. It is responsible for the correct X-Ray
cassette positioning as well as for the near film shutter positioning and the X-Ray
Grid control.
This card is also managing the SFD control desk (Operator table side interface). The
commands generated from this last keyboard are sent to the Control Desk CPU for
a correct management (all the actions are commanded from the Control Desk CPU).

CLISIS Collimator CPU BOARD:

It directly controls all the Collimator shutters positioning.

10.3 HW JUMPERS SETTINGS

In the current section the use of the jumpers and/or dip switches mounted on the different
electronic boards composing the CLISIS control system will be carefully described.
It must be underlined that the function of such switches might be related with the firmware
version installed on the unit.
For this reason is a good practice to check all service notes released after the distribution of
this manual to be sure that the jumpers still conserve the original function.

NOTE:

There are some jumpers/dip switches that allow the service engineer to disable safety
interlocks of the unit.
Such switches have the main porpoise to easy the trouble shooting operation of field
engineers, but can also dramatically reduce the safety level of the unit if enabled during
normal operation.

IS THEREFORE RESPONSABILITY OF THE FIELD ENGINEER THAT SUCH

SWITCHES ARE NOT LEFT ENABLED IF NOT FOR THE TIME STRICTLY NECESSARY
FOR THE TROUBLESHOOTING OPERATIONS.

10.4 SW JUMPERS SETTINGS

The CLISIS control firmware includes a set of software switches whose function is to enable
or disable optional components of the CLISIS table or skip some parts of the safety chain.
Such switches are accessible in service mode via a specific configuration menu as detailed
in the following paragraphs of this section.

It must be underlined that the function of such switches might be related with the firmware
version installed on the unit. For this reason is a good practice to check all service notes
released after the distribution of this manual to be sure that the jumpers still conserve the
original function.

NOTE:

There are some software switches that allow the service engineer to disable safety
interlocks of the unit.
Such switches have the main porpoise to easy the trouble shooting operation of field
engineers, but can also dramatically reduce the safety level of the unit if enabled during
normal operation.

IS THEREFORE RESPONSABILITY OF THE FIELD ENGINEER THAT SUCH

SWITCHES ARE NOT LEFT ENABLED IF NOT FOR THE TIME STRICTLY NECESSARY
FOR THE TROUBLESHOOTING OPERATIONS.

10.5 CLISIS FIRWARE DOWNLOAD

The CLISIS control firmware is contained on the flash EPROM mounted on the console
CPU, on the main CPU board, on the SFD CPU and on the Collimator CPU board.

The installer can download the original firmware version (I.E. in case of replacement of one
CPU board) or upgrade the unit to the latest software version using the Mecall Flash EPROM
programmer utility delivered with each unit.

The utility has been designed to run under a standard Windows enviroment and can be
installed on any PC or laptop computer.

The connection between the laptop computer and the CLISIS CPU boards require a standard
null modem cable unless the collimator CPU that requires the Argostat service cable p/n
002500.218 as detailed in the following drawing:

10.5 CLISIS CPUs SERIAL EEPROM ERASE

The CLISIS calibration and setting data are permanently stored in the serial eeprom mounted
one each CPU board.
In case of need it is possible to force a total erase of the stored data by means of a specific
menu of the CLISIS service routine.

It must be underlined that an incorrect use of such utility will case the lost of the unit calibration
data with the consequent need to perform a new unit calibration.

In case, for any reason, it is not possible to force a software erase of the serial eeprom it is
possible to force a total reset setting, on each board, the specific jumper as described in
section 10.3 of this manual.

NOTE:

The serial eeprom store the value of software switches that allow the service engineer to
disable safety interlocks of the unit.
Such switches have the main porpoise to easy the trouble shooting operation of field
engineers, but can also dramatically reduce the safety level of the unit if enabled during
normal operation.

IS THEREFORE RESPONSABILITY OF THE FIELD ENGINEER TO RESTORE THE

CORRECT SETTING OF SUCH SWITCHES ONCE ERASED THE SERIAL EEPROM.
