CHAPTER 1 – HOW TO USE APPLICATIONS & SYSTEM ERROR CODES
1-1
PROPRIETARY TO GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY ADVANTX SYSTEM & APPLICATION ERROR CODES REV 10
DIRECTION 2105661–100
WHAT ARE APPLICATIONS AND SYSTEM ERROR CODES? Applications and System error codes are messages that alert you—and the customer—that Applications, Operating System, or Module Test Executive (MTE) software cannot perform one of their programmed tasks. Applications and System error codes may appear on the console display at any time, whether you are running Applications, Diagnostics, or Service Mode software. So there must be bits of Applications, Operating System, and MTE software in all three types of code—Applications, Diagnostics, and Service Mode. What is all this software? And what hardware does it live in? You must understand these two questions to effectively use Applications and system error codes as part of your troubleshooting tool kit. What are Applications, Operating System, and MTE Software? Applications Software
As its name implies, Applications software controls customer X–ray applications— such as RAD, TOMO, Fluoro, Spot Film, etc. To accomplish a customer’s intended use, parts of Applications software are sent to all modules. For example, when the customer selects the fluoro function, fluoro Applications software uses the Console (to accept operator input), the ECM module (to control the exposure), the power unit module (to generate X rays), the VIC module (to control the TV system), the Positioner module (to position the patient), and the ASC module (to control all the other modules).
Operating System Software
Operating System software handles high–level, system related functions such as initializing system hardware, managing system resources, downloading software to modules, system timing functions, handling and processing operator input from the console, processing and displaying system output to the console, etc.
MTE Software
A copy of Module Test Executive software gets loaded into each module, where it primarily performs four functions. It serves as a module loader, communicating with the ASC operating system during download of more software to a module. It serves as a test sequencer. It handles GE Bus communication with the ASC. And it reports errors back to the ASC.
What Modules Run What Software When? Illustration 1–1 (next page) shows all the ADVANTX modules, the software (and firmware) run by each, and the Error Code range associated with each type of software. When the system is reset, the ASC module is the first to execute any code. The ASC runs its Power–on/Reset Diagnostics (PRD’s) and then resets all the other modules. Then the other modules start running their PRD’s. For details on PRD Error Codes, refer to Direction 46–019121 and to Advantx-E ECM Power–On/Reset Diagnostics, Direction 2129775–100.

DIRECTION 2105661–100 After PRD’s run, the type of software loaded depends on which software mode is selected.
Applications Mode
When the Applications mode is selected, the ASC loads the Applications Operating System (APOS) into itself and MTE software into each module. Any errors that APOS encounters are reported within the 4000 thru 40FF error range. Any errors that MTE encounters are reported with Error Code 8100. Then the ASC loads Applications software into itself and all the other modules, too. Remember, each module has it’s own CPU, and each CPU must have software to tell it what to do. So bits of Applications software reside in all modules. Any errors that a module’s Applications software encounters are reported within the following ranges:
Diagnostics Mode
ASC module . . . . . . 6100 thru 67FF ECM module . . 4200 thru 4277 Power unit module . . . . . 4282 thru 42FF Console module . . . 4300 thru 43FF Advantx DX . . . . . . 4400 thru 44FF Advantx DR . . . . . . 4500 thru 45FF Cine module . . . . . . 4600 thru 46FF VIC module . . . . . 4700 thru 47FF Digital system . . . . 4800 thru 48FF Positioner module . . . . . 4900 thru 4BFF Photo Spot module . . . . . 4C00 thru 4CFF Pulscan module . . . 4D00 thru 4DFF AFM, CFM positioners . . . . . 4E00 thru 4EFF When the Diagnostics software mode is selected, the ASC loads Module Confidence Diagnostics (MCD’s). For details on ASC MCD Error Codes, refer to Direction 46–019122 and to Direction 2128144–100, Advantx–E ASC–EDM Diagnostics. After the ASC runs MCD’s, it loads the System Level Operating System (SLOS) into itself and MTE software into each module. SLOS may report the same errors as APOS and may encounter additional errors that it reports within the 8101 thru 81FF error range. Any errors that MTE encounters are reported with Error Code 8100. Then the ASC loads System Level Diagnostics (SLD) software into itself and all the other modules. For an overview of SLD Error codes, refer to Direction 46–019115.
Service Mode
When the Service Mode (Cal & Config) software mode is selected, the ASC loads the Service Mode Operating System (SMOS) into itself and MTE software into each module. SMOS may report the same errors as APOS and may encounter additional errors that it reports within the A000 thru A0FF error range. Any errors that MTE encounters are reported with Error Code 8100.
1-4
PROPRIETARY TO GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY ADVANTX SYSTEM & APPLICATION ERROR CODES REV 10
DIRECTION 2105661–100 Service Mode uses many of the Applications software routines to facilitate calibration, and therefore any module running Service Mode software may report the same Applications Error Codes encountered in Applications Mode. Additionally, the individual Cal & Config Units may encounter and report their own errors. For a complete listing of Cal & Config Unit and SMOS Error Codes, refer to Direction 46–019049, Advantx Service Mode Error Codes.

ADVANTX I APPLICATIONS AND SYSTEM ERROR REPORTING All Applications and System Error Codes appear on the console’s display. The type of information displayed when an Applications or System error occurs depends on whether Normal Error Reporting or Extended Error Reporting is active. For Advantx I, you will use DIP switches on the ASC BIU board to select the error reporting mode of your choice. For Advantx–E, you will use the virtual DIP switches controlled from the service laptop. Normal Error Reporting
Illustration 1–2 shows a typical Applications Error Code with Normal Error Reporting active. In this mode, only the Error Code, the module that generates the error, and an error message are displayed. Many Applications and System Error Codes also appear on the In–Room Display.
Extended Error Reporting
Illustration 1–3 shows the same Applications Error Code as Illustration 1–2 but this time Extended Error Reporting is active. In this mode, the Error Code and the module that generates the error are still displayed, along with a different error message and some further information:
RM=00 Room that generated error. NODE=0B Node ID of module that generated error. Node ID’s for all modules are summarized in Table 1–1, below. Node ID’s are also sometimes referenced within the error message itself. RMX=0000 RMX is Intel software that provides some utilities for the 80186 and 80188 CPU’s. RMX codes have already been translated for you into the Applications Error Code. HW=00E1 Hardware Status. Contains additional error information. USER=0000 000A User Status. Contains additional error information. 03A3:0021 Line number of Applications code running in ASC module when error occurred. Useful only to the programmer. 0D4A:0151 Line number of Applications code running in module that generated error. Useful only to the programmer.

Debug Mode
Extended Error Reporting and Debug Mode are PROPRIETARY. If you use these modes, make sure you reset switches to Normal Mode before leaving site.
Table 1–2, below, summarizes switch settings for Extended Error Reporting and Debug Mode. Note that all Extended Error messages are listed, by Error Code, in Chapter 2 of this Direction—reference the “Debug Mode” error message. You needn’t run in Extended Error Reporting mode to learn what it’s message is. Due to the PROPRIETARY nature of these messages, we recommend that you simply refer to Chapter 2. In some early ASC BIU boards, the functions of S155 and S180 are reversed. For those boards, you must use S180 to enable Debug Mode or Extended Error Reporting, leavĆ ing all S155 switches ONĊthe opposite of what's described in the Table. Designators found on the switches (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) still apply, but to the opposite DIP switch bank.
Debug Mode lets you run Applications software and, at the same time, observe ARCNET (GE Bus) activity, send commands to modules, peek at memory locations, etc. Debug Mode requires the use of a VT–100 terminal and is normally for development use only.

ADVANTX–E APPLICATIONS AND SYSTEM ERROR REPORTING The Advantx–E virtual DIP switch is controlled from the service laptop. The virtual DIP switch allows you to enable and disable maintenance features and system initialization. The virtual DIP switch settings are stored in a file on the Advantx–E system controller. Here is a list of the controls and Check Boxes on the service laptop virtual DIP switch screen:
WARNING
Message Box: Displays informative messages about the current status of the service laptop to the Advantx–E system controller connections or to tasks that are in process. Room Description Box: The Room Description Box displays the room currently selected. Room Directory Box: The Room Directory Box displays the directory in which the selected room files are stored. Set Control: The Set Control sets the virtual DIP switches to the state displayed in the check boxes. Read Control: The Read Control reads the current state of the virtual DIP switches and displays the settings in the check boxes. Exit Control: The Exit Control exits this screen and returns to the previous screen. Debug Mode Check Box: Customer Mode: OFF. Selecting this box changes the debug mode between On and Off. selecting this option allows the following actions: - Causes debug mode error messages to be displayed instead of product error messages. - Causes the maintenance error log file to be created from the binary log upon initialization. - Will NOT mark a node Off Line regardless of defined error action for a given message. - Causes a software breakpoint to occur in the RMX Exception Handler instead of resetting the system. - Causes a software breakpoint to occur upon initialization if the database is unable to be loaded. THIS OPTION IS FOR SOFTWARE DEBUG ONLY AND SHOULD NOT BE ENABLED WHILE THE CUSTOMER IS USING THE EQUIPMENT FOR DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES, OR WHILE TROUBLESHOOTING SYSTEM PROBLEMS AS IT MAY EFFECT SYSTEM PERFORMANCE AND OPERATION.
1-10
PROPRIETARY TO GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY ADVANTX SYSTEM & APPLICATION ERROR CODES REV 10
DIRECTION 2105661–100
Extended Error Reporting Check Box: Customer Mode: OFF. The extended error reporting switch will enable an additional line of information (with the Node, User, etc. fields) to be displayed on the Advantx–E console. Ignore DB Checksum Check Box: Customer Mode: OFF. Selection of the Ignore Database Checksum will allow the system to continue even though a checksum error was detected on the values in the database. This is an option that is used for software and hardware debug and should not be enabled when the equipment is used for diagnostic procedures. THIS OPTION IS FOR SOFTWARE DEBUG ONLY AND SHOULD NOT BE ENABLED WHILE THE CUSTOMER IS USING THE EQUIPMENT FOR DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES, OR WHILE TROUBLE SHOOTING SYSTEM PROBLEMS AS IT MAY EFFECT SYSTEM PERFORMANCE AND OPERATION.
WARNING
Auto Return Check Box: Customer Mode: OFF or ON. Selection of the Auto Return option will cause the last application to be restored along with all the currently selected technique parameters, when SYSTEM RESET is pressed. Full VIC Initialization Check Box: Customer Mode: OFF. Selection of the Full VIC Initialization will force the VIC subsystem to wait for the pickup tube to warm up each time the subsystem is initialized. This mode requires additional time to complete and should be bypassed if minimum boot time is critical. DX Offset Override Check Box: Customer Mode: OFF. This switch forces DX Offsets to be suppressed when the DX application is entered. Advantx–E Virtual DIP Switch Procedure To perform an Advantx–E virtual DIP switch selection:
Install and verify that the ethernet connection is correctly installed. If the service laptop has not been configured for connectivity to the desired room, or if the room is not currently selected, use the Install, Add or Select room feature via the laptop IP Select application. Selection of the virtual DIP switch application causes a read of the virtual DIP switches. The settings are displayed in the check boxes. Select the check boxes to turn the functions On or Off. Select the Set Control to change the virtual DIP switch settings in the Advantx–E system controller. Select the Exit Control to exit this screen and return to the previous screen.

USING APPLICATIONS AND SYSTEM ERROR CODES Chapter 2 thru 17 of this direction lists Applications and System Error Codes arranged in hexadecimal order, starting at 4000H and extending through 81FFH. Each error code has its own page. On that page you’ll find the error code’s screen message(s), Module that generated the error, error Description, and Recommended Actions.The tables are titled according to the type of software that generated the error: Applications, Operating System, or MTE. Sometimes the customer may easily correct an Applications software error condition, such as when the error is caused by an empty cine film cassette or an unsatisfied interlock. At other times, however, the Applications software error message only advises the customer to call service. In these cases, your best action is to load and run SLD’s (refer to Direction 46–019115) in the module that generated the error. Alternately, you may check that module’s CPU board for a PRD error (refer to Direction 46–019121 and to Direction 2129775–100, Advantx–E ECM Power–On/Reset Diagnostics. Whichever action you pursue, always bear in mind which module generated the error, which type of software generated the error, and what the system was trying to do when the error occurred.

DESCRIPTION This is a software error. The ECM received an ARCNET packet which contained an undefined command. Either the command was outside the valid range or the pointer in the ECM’s opcode call table for that particular command is NIL. The range for system/configuration commands is 00H–0FH; the range for external commands is 80H–FFH. It is also possible the ARCNET hardware is failing in either the ECM or the sending node and the packet is being corrupted by the hardware when it is sent or received. However, if this is the case, many other errors would most likely be encountered since this type of failure would imply all ARCNET transmissions or receptions by the faulty node would be error prone. The received packet will be ignored. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS 1.

DESCRIPTION The power unit sent a packet to the ECM with the Reset Done bit set in Discrete Feedback Word #2 even though the ECM never sent a reset command to the power unit. See the Power Unit Packet Format chapter for more information on the power unit packet structure and the significance of the error status fields. This error will cause the ECM to reset the power unit and execute the power unit recovery sequence which includes: D sending the power unit the previously selected tube D sending the power unit the previous filament select D setting the filaments to pre–light levels If the tube had been rotating prior to receiving this error, the power unit will also be commanded to return the rotor back to its previous status as follows : D if the tube had been at high speed, the rotor will be commanded to high speed for 10 seconds and then will brake to low speed for 20 more seconds, after which time it will brake to off D if the tube had been at low speed, the rotor will be commanded to low speed for 30 seconds, after which time it will brake to off. The system should normally recover from this error. During the recovery sequence, however, normal power unit communications are halted, so no exposures may be taken and other errors may be encountered if the operator activates the prep/expose switch or attempts to switch tubes or selects a different focal spot. The recovery sequence usually takes about 3–5 seconds. Also note that errors 422DH and 4260H will usually be encountered if the prep/expose switch is pressed during the recovery sequence.

DESCRIPTION An NMI (Non–Maskable Interrupt) was detected by the ECM. The ECM’s NMI service routine will first check to see if the NMI was caused by a bus timeout (error 4203H). Otherwise, it assumes the NMI was caused by a loss of power (error 4261H). After sending the appropriate error message to the ASC, the NMI latch will be reset to enable further NMIs.A bus timeout will occur when the CPU attempts to access either an undefined memory location or an unreachable memory location. This error will occur if the Multibus decode logic on any of the ECM circuit boards fails (i.e. the CPU attempts to access a memory location which is unreachable because of some sort of hardware error; note that this memory address may be physically found on any of the ECM boards, not necessarily the CPU board). This error may also be seen with software errors such as trying to use NIL pointers, DMA addressing errors, or when the software is corrupted and is executing at an invalid address. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS D D D D
Cycle console power to re–initialize the ECM. Press CPU Reset to re–load ASC and module software. Run the extended PRD diagnostic tests on the ECM module.

DESCRIPTION This is an informational message which was introduced during implementation of the Filament Control Algorithm. It was added so that the modification of the filament drive correction value could be monitored directly during debug mode without having to break the ASC or ECM to see what the current value is. See the ECM Filament Control SDD for information regarding when the filament correction value should be modified and how this parameter is used in the ECM. Note that this error will only be displayed when the HIGH word of the filament correction value has been increased by a count of 4 or more since this message or the 4205H error message was last displayed. Under normal operating conditions, this error has been observed to compensate for conditions such as: tube heating/cooling effects – when a tube becomes hot and mA increases slightly, the filament correction value will increase (error 4204H) to bring the emission current back to acceptable levels. If the tube is then allowed to cool, mA levels will be lower again so the filament correction value may be decreased slightly (error 4205H) which in turn will increase the filament current and result in higher mA values. mA feedback lag of commanded mA – if the technique changes because the dialed mA/pulse width or KV is changed or the thickness of filtration is changing as the system pans over it, the commanded filament current will also change. However, since the system takes a certain amount of time to react to the new commanded mA, an error will be introduced since the ECM thinks the mA should be at the new level but the mA feedback from the power unit will be lagging behind somewhat. The Filament Control Algorithm will attempt to correct this error by adjusting the filament correction value. Since the commanded mA is higher at lower KVs, the 4204H error will usually be seen when the system is going from lower to higher KV values (lag in mA will give higher mA feedback than commanded mA, so Filament Control Algorithm will attempt to reduce emission current).

Error 4204 If the filament correction value is being increased very rapidly (i.e. the 4204H error occurs often and/or the value is being increased in large steps as indicated by the USER error status field), it may indicate one or more of the following; in these cases the corrective action outlined below should be executed: some of the filament control parameters have not been calibrated properly there is a problem with the mA meter (ABC modes) or mA integrator (rad modes) in the power unit the mA (ABC modes) or mA error (rad modes) feedback from the power unit is being returned incorrectly Note that conditions which cause the mA feedback to increase an unusually large amount such as mA meter saturation (42EAH) and tube spit (42CAH) errors may also be encountered along with this error message. Also note that the “mA exceeds 125% of max mA” error (420AH) may also be encountered along with this error.

Check the error log and determine if any other errors were also being encountered when this error occurred (note that this error is not logged, so the “time” associated with the errors in the error log will have to be coordinated with when the 4204H error was occurring). Specifically check for related errors such as mA meter saturation (42EAH) and tube spit (mA overload error 42CAH) errors. These other errors should be investigated first since the 4204H error was probably caused by the other errors. Re–run the proper calibration units to make sure associated non–volatile parameters such as the mA meter values (units R002 and R009) and the maximum mA tables (units X100 and X101 for conventional Fluoro, X120 and X121 for progressive Fluoro, X102 for Cine, R003 for rad) have been calibrated correctly. Alternatively, restore a database which is known to be valid. Run the extended PRD diagnostic tests on the ECM and Power Unit modules.

It is also possible that some other condition such as mA meter saturation (42EAH) or tube spit (42CAH) errors may have caused the filament correction value to be increased more than normal and the Filament Control Algorithm is simply adjusting the filament correction factor back to its proper level after these other errors have cleared themselves.

DESCRIPTION This may be either an informational message or a hardware error. This error indicates the mA returned from the power unit is 1.25 times the expected mA. If a system has not been operating in KV override, it is possible to age the filaments without adjusting the filament correction value. If the system is suddenly put into KV override, the mA may initially be fairly high until the Filament Control Algorithm has a chance to adjust the correction value and bring the mA back down to an acceptable value. If this is the case, the error message will only be sent until the emission current is brought back within limits. If this error is continually displayed, it probably indicates a problem with the power unit’s mA metering hardware or the max mA tables were never calibrated or were calibrated improperly. Note that other errors such as 4204H (filament correction increasing), 420CH (suspected grid short), 42EAH (mA meter saturation), 42B6H (grid short), and 42CAH (tube spit) may also be encountered along with this error. Note that this error only occurs during Fluoro exposures. Also note that the 125% level must be maintained for at least three seconds before this message will be displayed; this is so that occurrences such as a short tube spits will not cause this error to be displayed.

USER:

FUNC:

DESCRIPTION This error may indicate a possible problem with the mA metering circuit. The mA feedback received from the power unit was less than half of the calculated maximum mA, but the ECM thinks it should be near the maximum mA. Note that this error should only occur when the ABC Algorithm is operating in KV override (i.e. at maximum filament drive) for non–pulsed systems and at or above 90% max pulse width for pulsed systems. This is because if we are at max filament current or max pulse width, the mA should also be fairly close to its maximum value; a value which is below half the maximum is obviously too low and is flagged as an error. It may also be possible that the max mA tables were not calibrated or were calibrated improperly. Note that this error only occurs during Fluoro exposures. This error has also been seen when a temporary grid short occurs. The ECM receives the grid short error from the power unit and reduces the filament drive levels by the appropriate grid short correction factor. If the grid short then clears while exposures are still being taken, the grid short correction factor will still be subtracted from subsequent filament commands since the power unit does not inform the ECM that there is no longer a grid short condition until the next prep/expose switch transition. Therefore, the commanded filament drive levels will be too low since the ECM is trying to compensate for a grid short condition which no longer exists. Releasing and then reactivating the expose switch will return the filament drive levels back to their appropriate levels.

If the error persists, check the error log for grid short errors (420CH and 42B6H) to determine if intermittent grid shorts are causing this problem. Check the error log for tube spit errors (42CAH). If the tube is spitting often, the Filament Control Algorithm will be receiving high mA feedback values which in turn will cause the filament correction value to be increased. If the filament correction value is increased enough, the filament drive levels during non–spitting conditions will be driven lower than they should be and in turn will keep the mA below what it should actually be. If the filament drive correction value has been increased substantially, the “x–ray tube preventive maintenance” error (600EH) should also be found in the error log; the 600EH error is only displayed/logged at warm start time however. Re–run unit R009 to recalibrate the Fluoro mA meter. Also re–run the proper calibration units to make sure the maximum mA tables have been calibrated correctly (units X100 and X101 for conventional Fluoro, X120 and X121 for progressive Fluoro, etc.).

DESCRIPTION During most grid short situations, the power unit reports the error to the ECM (error code 42B6H). However, if the technique is fairly low, the power may not be sufficient to trip the power unit’s grid short detection hardware. In these cases, the ECM will detect the possible grid short by evaluating the mA feedback level. If the mA is more than twice what the ECM thinks it should be, the ECM will assume the excessively high mA is being caused by a grid short which was not detected by the power unit. This will cause the ECM to subtract the grid short correction factor from all subsequent filament drive commands until the footswitch is released. Note that this error only occurs during pulsed Fluoro exposures. This error may also indicate a possible problem with the mA metering circuit. It may also be possible that the max mA tables were not calibrated or were calibrated improperly. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS 1.

4. 5. 6.
Release the expose switch and try again. If this error was caused by a temporary grid short, this should clear the error. If the error persists, perhaps the tube is actually experiencing a grid short.

FUNC:

MODULE

DESCRIPTION
This error indicates the ABC Algorithm attempted to reload the pulse width timer (ECM Timer 2) while an exposure was already occurring. If this were to happen, the current exposure would be cut short because the timer would be reset when the new timer value was loaded, which in turn would cause RAD PULSE (and thus EXP SIG) to be driven low. This in turn would cause the ABC brightness to be lower than expected since we had an exposure signal which was shorter than the pulse commanded by the ABC Algorithm. This would then result in the ABC Algorithm driving the technique higher to compensate for the low brightness condition. If this error is detected, the timer will not be reloaded, so the next ABC exposure will occur at the same pulse width as the current exposure. Otherwise, if we would allow the timer to be reloaded, the duration of EXP SIG would not match the value predicted by the ABC Algorithm and the brightness level would become unstable. This error indicates either : 1. 2. 3. 4.
There is a problem with the configuration of the ECM timers that is allowing the ABC Update timer to timeout in the middle of EXP SIG. There is a problem in the module driving the EXT SYNC signal if Fluoro exposures are being taken or the EXP GATE signal if Cine/Cardiac exposures are being taken. There is some other timing problem where the ECM is servicing higher priority interrupts which delays the servicing of the ABC interrupts. There is some other hardware or Real Time Bus problem which is causing the ABC timing to be incorrect.

ECM
DESCRIPTION The ECM requested the power unit to send back the cause of a watchdog timeout in feedback #1 but the next packet it received from the power unit did not contain feedback #1. This may happen if the power unit dies right after the ECM sends it a packet requesting the watchdog timeout condition; however, this should cause the ECM to reset the power unit. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS For LFX: See Illustration A–1 in Appendix. This error means that the ECM detected loss of HV ON, asked the LFX CPU to read LFX KV board Status Register for cause of failure, but never received an answer from the LFX (via the ECM/LFX serial link). This error should not occur unless the LFX dies between the time an error was detected and the moment the ECM asked for more information. Reset the system and check for an LFX PRD error or use ECM SLD tests to check the ECM/LFX serial link. For VAMP (MPPU ph4), LFX, and MPPU2/MPPU3, SCPU: 1. Check the error log and make sure there was not some other power unit error which may have preceded this error. Any preceding errors should be investigated first. 2.

DESCRIPTION This is a database error. The ECM received cal/config data which was out of range. Any invalid data will force the ECM to execute an endless loop toggling the LEDs on the ECM’s CPU board between 00FH and 0F0H until a go–to–cold command is received. If this error is detected, the ECM will not send a module ready command to the ASC and it will not be marked on–line. An exception to this is if the go–to–cold time is invalid; in this case the go–to–cold time is set to the current time but the ECM will still come on–line (as long as the rest of the data is valid). This will result in a standby cooling time of zero and no standby cooling will be performed.

DESCRIPTION
This is a status/informational message which is displayed when the ECM detects an inverter heat wait condition. This error is displayed indirectly by the ASC through ARCNET command 35H. This error will cause the ECM to abort the current exposure recipe and the current exposure sequence will be terminated. Note that this error is only encountered with SCPU power units. Also note that this error will normally be encountered during “predictive” calculations which means that the actual thermic parameter value (HW status) may not currently be higher than the max value (USER status), but it would have been if the pending exposure had been taken. This error is different than the “overload error” returned by the power unit when one of the inverter thermic status values actually does exceed the max value. Note that this error will only occur during radiographic exposures. There is a similar error for fluoro exposures (see error 420DH) with the main difference being that fluoro exposures will be allowed to continue when the inverter thermal theshold is approached.
RECOMMENDED ACTIONS 1.

DESCRIPTION There are two conditions which may cause this error. The first condition may be identified by observing values of zero in the USER and FUNC Status error fields; the second condition should load non–zero values for these entries: 1. Database error – the bulk temperature sent down with the non–volatile run–time parameters for one of the configured tubes was too large. While performing the bulk cooling algorithm, the ECM divides the current bulk temperature by 8 to determine an index into the tube cooling table. Each entry in the cooling table corresponds to an eight degree C temperature band (0–7, 8–15, ..., 1592–1599 degrees C). There are 200 entries in the table so the range of the cooling table index is 0–199. This means that the ECM calculated an index greater than 199 (bulk temp. > 1600 degrees C!). The index will be set to 199, the maximum cooling rate possible; this should eventually cool the bulk temperature to a valid range. The HW Status error field should be decreasing in value as the temperature decreases; once the values reaches 0C8H (corresponding to a calculated index value of 200), the error should go away. NOTE: prior to model period 9, this error caused both Record and Fluoro exposures to be aborted and locked out until the error cleared itself; starting with model period 9, only Record exposures are prohibited. Also, prior to model period 9, this error was sent up every time the cooling algorithm was performed (i.e. once every 1/2 second) which purged out the error log with 4229H errors; starting with model period 9, the error will be sent when it is first detected and then will only be resent if the prep/expose switches are pressed.

Error 4229 2.
Diving heat unit problem – an intermittent problem has surfaced where it appears during the tube heat calculations, one of the parameters used in the calculations is becoming corrupted which results in a substantially large value being calculated. During exposures, energy is added into the tube by multiplying KV * mA * expose time. One of these three parameters may possibly become excessively large when the calculations are performed (such as the expose time value being corrupted – perhaps a hardware timer problem). The detection of this condition was added during model period 9 with the hope that the error fields will point us in the right direction so we may find the root cause of the diving heat unit problem. (NOTE : subsequent to adding the detection of this condition, a software error in the heating/cooling algorithm was found and corrected in the MP9 Filament Control release; this detection was left in place in case there are other conditions which are causing the heat dive problem, but if no more problems are reported, we should probably remove the logic from the ECM software.)
1.
Turn the console off and wait a few minutes for the tube to cool back within range. If the console is kept off for 4 or more hours, the ECM will automatically set the tube energy to zero (i.e. 100% heat units available or H.U.A.) once the console is turned back on. Perform a run–time database restore with a database backup which was made when the %H.U.A. was valid (i.e. bulk temperature was valid). NOTE – there is a known problem with run–time restore where it may not work the first time it is run; press the run–time restore button twice to insure it works properly.

DESCRIPTION This is a software error. If the x–ray tube distance downloaded by the ASC for the SID parameters (command = 0A0H) is less than SID zero this error is generated. X–ray tube distance will then be set to SID zero by the ECM. Theoretically this error should never be encountered since sid_zero is the smallest distance the x–ray tube should ever be. However, there is a little bit of “play” in the sid position feedback in the positioner. This means the x–ray tube distance reported when sid zero is calibrated may be plus or minus a couple of millimeters compared to minimum sid position when applications is running. If the error occurs all the time, there may be something wrong with the positioner’s sid feedback potentiometer or there is a communication problem between the positioner and ECM, positioner and ASC, and/or ASC and ECM. Also note that on systems not equipped with variable SIDs and applications which take ABC exposures but don’t use SID compensation (such as Cine/Cardiac), this error will not be detected, even if the ECM is receiving invalid xrt_dist and ii_dist values.

DESCRIPTION This is probably a hardware error caused from the SDLC not functioning properly. The ECM did not receive a reply packet from the power unit within one second of transmission of its last packet to the power unit. This error will cause the ECM to reset the power unit. The other possibility is that the power unit is taking longer than one second to process and respond to the last packet sent by the ECM. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS 1.
Cycle console power to re–initialize the ECM and the power unit.
2.
If the error is only occurring right after the console is turned on, check the DIP switches on the ECM’s CPU board and verify the switch to bypass the “wait for power unit” response during ECM initialization is not flipped (see the I/O Port Definitions chapter for DIP switch specifications). If this switch is set incorrectly, it is possible the ECM will start sending packets to the power unit before it is ready to receive them and the ECM will encounter link timeouts until the power unit has had time to initialize properly.
3.
Verify the ECM and power unit DIP switches are set properly so that the modules are not running some sort of diagnostic tests which are interfering with normal ECM/power unit communications.

POWER UNIT PRD ERROR

MODULE DESCRIPTION The ECM received a PRD error from the power unit after the PU Reset line had been asserted (either at warm start time or after a fatal error condition had caused the ECM reset the power unit). Consult the appropriate manual for a description of the PRD error code displayed in the HW status field. This error will cause the ECM to reset the power unit and execute the power unit recovery sequence (i.e. will be treated as a class I power unit error) which includes : – sending the power unit the previously selected tube – sending the power unit the previous filament select – setting the filaments to pre–light levels. If the tube had been rotating prior to receiving this error, the power unit will also be commanded to return the rotor back to its previous status as follows : – –
if the tube had been at high speed, the rotor will be commanded to high speed for 10 seconds and then will brake to low speed for 20 more seconds, after which time it will brake to off if the tube had been at low speed, the rotor will be commanded to low speed for 30 seconds, after which time it will brake to off.
The system should normally recover from this error. During the recovery sequence, however, normal power unit communications are halted, so no exposures may be taken and other errors may be encountered if the operator activates the prep/expose switch or attempts to switch tubes or selects a different focal spot. The recovery sequence usually takes about 3–5 seconds. Note that errors 422DH and 4260H will usually be encountered if the prep/expose switch is pressed during the recovery sequence. Also note that if this error is occurring because of some type of hard failure that causes a PRD error on every reset, the ECM/power unit will be caught in a perpetual reset sequence since this error will be detected every time the power unit is reset, which will cause another reset, which will cause another error, etc., etc., etc. 3-59

MODULE DESCRIPTION The ECM received an error from the power unit that belonged to the “unused” class. This may indicate a power unit firmware problem where the power unit is sending bogus error code values to the ECM or an ECM software problem where the ECM is interpreting the received error code incorrectly. It is also possible that the error code value is being corrupted as it is sent over the serial data link, but this would more than likely lead to other errors such as power unit packet checksum errors (error code 425CH). This error will cause the ECM to reset the power unit and execute the power unit recovery sequence (i.e. will be treated as a class I power unit error) which includes : – sending the power unit the previously selected tube – sending the power unit the previous filament select – setting the filaments to pre–light levels If the tube had been rotating prior to receiving this error, the power unit will also be commanded to return the rotor back to its previous status as follows : – if the tube had been at high speed, the rotor will be commanded to high speed for 10 seconds and then will brake to low speed for 20 more seconds, after which time it will brake to off – if the tube had been at low speed, the rotor will be commanded to low speed for 30 seconds, after which time it will brake to off.

DESCRIPTION The ECM received a DMA packet from the power unit which was less than five bytes long. This error will cause the ECM to reset the power unit. This error may be encountered if there are problems with the DMA controller or with the 8530 SCC hardware, either because the hardware is faulty or because there is a software configuration problem. If there is some sort of problem with the hardware other associated errors may be encountered. These errors include : – 4213H – power unit packet queue full – 4245H – power unit link timeout – 4248H – power unit PRD communications test error – 425CH – power unit checksum error – 425DH – power unit CRC error – 425EH – power unit receiver overrun – 4264H – request for service interrupt not received This error will cause the ECM to reset the power unit and execute the power unit recovery sequence (i.e. will be treated as a class I power unit error) which includes : – – –
sending the power unit the previously selected tube sending the power unit the previous filament select setting the filaments to pre–light levels
If the tube had been rotating prior to receiving this error, the power unit will also be commanded to return the rotor back to its previous status as follows : – –
if the tube had been at high speed, the rotor will be commanded to high speed for 10 seconds and then will brake to low speed for 20 more seconds, after which time it will brake to off if the tube had been at low speed, the rotor will be commanded to low speed for 30 seconds, after which time it will brake to off.

Error 4277 The system should normally recover from this error. During the recovery sequence, however, normal power unit communications are halted, so no exposures may be taken and other errors may be encountered if the operator activates the prep/expose switch or attempts to switch tubes or selects a different focal spot. The recovery sequence usually takes about 3–5 seconds. Note that errors 422DH and 4260H will usually be encountered if the prep/expose switch is pressed during the recovery sequence. Also note that if this error is occurring because of some type of hard failure, it is very likely that the ECM/power unit will be caught in a perpetual reset sequence since this error will be detected every time the power unit is reset, which will cause another reset, which will cause another error, etc., etc., etc. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

DESCRIPTION This is a status/informational message. The exposure was terminated by a loss of expose gate rather than the exp/rad timer. This may happen in cases such as selecting a film changer expose time of 320 msec. but programming a SEP programmer for 4 shots/second; the SEP will toggle expose gate at some time less than 250 msec. as sheets of film are being transported and exposures will thus be terminated at a time less than the selected 320 msec.

DESCRIPTION This is probably a database error although it is possibly a software error. One of the calculations to compute the AEC backup time table resulted in a negative number. Since this number is used as a divisor in subsequent calculations, the value will be set to one to avoid divide by zero errors; this in turn will result in very small energy values for the JTX table and AEC exposures will probably be terminated when the backup times approach the particular time value that the error occurred at.

Note that the x.TIME(0) member is used for backup times of 0 – 500 msec., x.TIME(1) member for times of 500+ – 2000 msec., and x.TIME(2) member for times of 2+ – 10 seconds; therefore: KW$TIME$INTERVAL$TBL(i).TIME(2) > 10.0 , K$TIME$INTERVAL(i).TIME(2)

Refer to the ‘ADVANTX System Level Diagnostics’ manual for instructions and recommended actions should an error occur. Run the system in debug error mode (since STARTWHEN errors are not generally displayed in product mode) and stay on the prep/expose switch long enough to generate the STARTWHEN timeout condition. Since several STARTWHEN conditions may occur simultaneously and overwrite each other, check the error log to determine all the STARTWHEN conditions. Begin investigating the module responsible for generating the particular signal which is causing the STARTWHEN error. If the signal appears valid in this module, trace it back to the ECM. If it seems to be making it to the ECM, trace it all the way to where it gets written to the Recipe Process Status Register on the ETL–2 board. This should determine if the problem is being caused by the source module, in the transmission of the signal to the ECM, or between where the signal comes into the ECM and where it gets written to the Recipe Process Status Register.

DESCRIPTION STARTWHEN errors are generated when a particular signal or state has not been achieved after a given amount of time as specified in the currently active recipe. The recipe index where the error was detected will be displayed in the HW STATUS error field. STARTWHEN errors cause the current recipe to be aborted and the exposure run to be terminated. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS 1. 2. 3.
4.
Run the extended PRD diagnostic tests on all modules. Refer to the ‘ADVANTX Power–On/Reset Diagnostics’ manual for instructions and recommended actions should an error occur. Run all ECM System Level Diagnostics. Refer to the ‘ADVANTX System Level Diagnostics’ manual for instructions and recommended actions should an error occur. Run Special Combinations Group Intermodule Real Time Bus Test. Pay particular attention to the modules which drive the failing RTB signal and the ECM. Refer to the ‘ADVANTX System Level Diagnostics’ manual for instructions and recommended actions should an error occur. Run the system in debug error mode (since STARTWHEN errors are not generally displayed in product mode) and stay on the prep/expose switch long enough to generate the STARTWHEN timeout condition. Since several STARTWHEN conditions may occur simultaneously and overwrite each other, check the error log to determine all the STARTWHEN conditions. Begin investigating the module responsible for generating the particular signal which is causing the STARTWHEN error. If the signal appears valid in this module, trace it back to the ECM. If it seems to be making it to the ECM, trace it all the way to where it gets written to the Recipe Process Status Register on the ETL–2 board. This should determine if the problem is being caused by the source module, in the transmission of the signal to the ECM, or between where the signal comes into the ECM and where it gets written to the Recipe Process Status Register.

For LFX, reseat or replace LFX KV board, power supply board, voltpac motor, backplane relay and diode, voltpac position pot. Go into the applications mode and generate the error. Measure +24v on J3 a9 of the KV board .If it is not there, swap power supply boards. Measure the voltage at j3 c27. It should be between 20 and 30v. Measure the voltage at J3 a26 the wiper of the pot. The ratio of the voltage at j3 a26 to j3 c27 should be about the same as the brush position percentage of full travel. If it isn’t check the voltpac pot. Measure the voltage across the motor terminals. If it is greater than 3 v when the brush is not moving and not at limit, the motor may be defective.

In patient and personal safety conditions, this error maybe cleared on the tube where it occurs by a general power-off at the main cabinet. Run SLD Diagnostic Interface 1 Tube select Logic check the high voltage switch in the high voltage tank. When running the test in loop mode you should hear the switching noise.

If there is kV and filament current but very low mA (<200 min/mA), and if you cannot hear the noise at step 4 above, then change the HV tank. This error could be caused by a poor cathode cable connection at the High Voltage Transformer (compressed pins). The connection was just good enough for the system to sense some filament current, thus preventing a filament error from occurring. This same error could occur in any (not just at the HV XFMR cathode) high voltage cable pins were compressed. Remove the high voltage cables and check for compressed ins. use a High voltage pin Spreader Tool (46–208572P44) or a thin bladed knife to carefully spread open the pins. Note: Do not use a screwdriver. Follow the recommended procedure for cleaning and lubricating the high voltage connectors and wells before re–inserting the high voltage cables. You may have to check both the anode and cathode cables at both ends before finding the “compressed pins.”

POWER UNIT
DESCRIPTION Reported by LFX, MPPU, VAMP and SCPU type power units. This is an “operator correctable” error that will be erased from the console when the condition clears (product mode only). This error will abort exposure sequence but will not send a hard reset to the power unit and is also referred to as the “tube pressure switch” or “casing thermal limit” error. Reception of this error will cause the ECM to suppress the transmission of prep/expose switch commands to the ASC so that no further exposures may be taken until the error condition clears; however, the ECM will still service prep/expose interrupts so that this error may be re–displayed when the operator activates the switch so that the operator receives an indication why no exposures are commencing when the switch is pressed. Also, the ECM will issue a rotor brake command when this error is received to ensure the rotor is not rotating (note that the LFX power unit automatically brakes the rotor itself upon detection of this error; the MPPU and VAMP do not, so the ECM must send a rotor brake command). The power unit will continue to send this error to the ECM until the tube cools and the error clears itself, although the error is only sent to the ASC for display upon the initial detection of the condition and during any prep/expose switch transitions so that the error log won’t be filled with 42C5H errors. When the condition clears itself the power unit will send the ECM an error byte equal to zero. This will inform the ECM that the tube has cooled enough to allow further exposures and the ECM will re–enable the transmission of prep/expose switch status commands to the ASC. Note that rotor controller thermal limit (42DEH) and inverter thermal limit errors (42DFH) are handled in the same fashion this error is handled. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS 1. 2. 3.

If the error code does not appear, but still appears when the application mode is rebooted, the problem may be in the closed loop system on the i/o board. Check the cables between the overload board and the HVT. Swap overload boards and i/o boards. Verify that the filament demand command during closed loop operation is within limits if the error occurs during a radiographic exposure. Select the technique which causes the failure. Monitor the voltage at j1 – a5. If it rises above 7.0 v (6.5 v if the tube with a 6.5a small spot limit is selected) during exposure, swap i/o boards. otherwise swap the filament inverter A board.

DESCRIPTION Reported by SCPU type power units. This is an “operator correctable” error that will be erased from the console when the condition clears (product mode only). This error is actually treated as a Class III type error (i.e. will abort exposure sequence but will not send a hard reset to the power unit) and is also referred to as the “rotor controller thermal limit” error. Reception of this error will cause the ECM to suppress the transmission of prep/expose switch commands to the ASC so that no further exposures may be taken until the error condition clears; however, the ECM will still service prep/expose interrupts so that this error may be re–displayed when the operator activates the switch so that the operator receives an indication why no exposures are commencing when the switch is pressed. Also, the ECM will issue a rotor brake command when this error is received to ensure the rotor is not rotating. The power unit will continue to send this error to the ECM until the rotor controller cools and the error clears itself, although the error is only sent to the ASC for display upon the initial detection of the condition and during any prep/expose switch transitions so that the error log won’t be filled with 42DEH errors. When the condition clears itself the power unit will send the ECM an error byte equal to zero. This will inform the ECM that the rotor controller has cooled enough to allow further exposures and the ECM will re–enable the transmission of prep/expose switch status commands to the ASC. Note that casing thermal limit (4215H) and inverter thermal limit errors (42DFH) are handled in the same fashion this error is handled. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS

This is done so that the ECM and ASC are not overrun with mA meter limit errors; once the mA meter saturates, every packet sent by the power unit will have an mA meter limit error <–– if ABC exposures are being taken (60Hz Fluoro for example), the ECM and ASC would have to handle error messages at a rate beyond the capabilities of the system (60 error messages per second for 60Hz Fluoro). RECOMMENDED ACTION 1.
The mA meter test in the power unit diagnostics can be run for additional troubleshooting information.

DESCRIPTION Reported by LFX and MPPU and VAMP type power units. Reception of this error sets a flag which disables the ECM Filament Control Algorithm for ABC type exposures (i.e., for secondary timed and primary continuous exposures). The flag will be cleared again when the console power is cycled. On the Measures and Commutation board, voltage regulator B17 provides a current source which is used to test the mA metering circuit at 5 mA and 100 mA. This test is performed after power up and after selecting a different tube. RECOMMENDED ACTION 1.
The mA meter test in the power unit diagnostics can be run for additional troubleshooting information.
2.
Run diagnostics for MPPU and VAMP Interface 2 Board: Frequency to Voltage Converter Test. More detail for this test can be found in MP Diagnostics under Error Code 8490.

DESCRIPTION This error is reported for two different reasons: 1. DR Module failed to respond during power up sequence (HW = 0, USER = 0). The DR BIU processor waits 5 seconds for the DR–RDY signal at pin 7 of U133 to go high. 2. The DR module has reported an error either in response to a command issued to it from the GE BIU or while in the process of reporting internal status information to the GE BIU (HW = EX.).

Hardware
DESCRIPTION When the operator depresses the fluoro switch, the ASC will indicate this to the DR BIU processor via the GE bus. The DR BIU will in turn initiate the following sequence: The ACQ–REQ signal (Pin 18 of U178) in the parallel I/O interface is set low by the DR BIU. The DR Module responds within 10 msec. by setting the ACQ–GNT signal (Pin 11 of U180) high. (Note: No test is made to insure that the ACQ–GNT signal was low prior to the setting of the ACQ–REQ signal.) Upon ’seeing’ ACQ–GNT high, the DR BIU will then set the FLUORO SWITCH signal (Pin 7 of U178) in the parallel I/O interface low. The DR Module responds within 10 msec. by setting the DR–RDY signal (Pin 7 of U133) low. (Note: No test is made to insure that the DR–RDY signal was low prior to the setting of the FLUORO SWITCH signal.) Upon ’seeing’ the DR–RDY signal (Pin 7 of U133) low the DR BIU continues to monitor it and, to complete the sequence, the DR Module then has 50 msec. to set the DR–RDY signal high. Failure to do so results in this error message being reported to the ASC. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS Run the following diagnostic test(s) and take the recommended actions for the test(s) should a failure occur. DR BIU Extended Mode PRDs (Power On/Reset Diagnostics). All DR BIU Board SLDs (System Level Diagnostics). All DR I/O Board SLDs (System Level Diagnostics).

ERROR TYPE
Hardware
DESCRIPTION Message can be generated from several different sources: DR BIU To DR Module Communication. The serial communication between the DR BIU and the DR Module consists of command packets of the following form: STX/CMD/CNT/DATA/ETX where: STX: Start Of Text = 02H; CMD: Command Number = Greater than or equal to 80H; CNT: Count = Number of data bytes; DATA: Data = Command Dependant; ETX: End Of Text = 03H. Before transmission of a packet begins, the DR BIU transmitter routine validates the contents of the packet. If the command number found in the second location of the packet is less than 80H, this error message is reported to the ASC. USER = Assumed Command Number (Less than 80H). ASC To DR BIU Communication. The data of several commands which are transmitted from the ASC to the DR BIU is checked for its validity. If the data is not within the proper range, this error is reported back to the ASC with the User Status variable containing the number of the command for which the check failed. The commands which are checked are: 17 Hex – In-room Remote Disable; 18 Hex – Auxiliary Remote Disable; 19 Hex – Tri-state Camera Drive; 1A Hex – Camera Drive Relay Control; 2A Hex – Fluoro Camera Sync Select. USER = ASC Command Number for which data is bad – 17H, 18H, 19H, 1AH and 2AH. ASC Pass Through Commands. Via the Direct Transfer Command, the ASC has the capability to directly transfer any valid command string to the DR Module via the DR BIU. To insure the correctness of this passed through command, the DR BIU will check the STX, Command Number and Count value. A failure of any of these parameters will result in this error message being reported back to the ASC. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS As can be seen from the definitions given above, it is not possible to tell from which source the error was reported. (Command number for the first source could be anything from zero to 7F hex.) As such, run the following diagnostic test(s) and take the recommended actions for the test(s) should a failure occur. ASC Extended Mode PRDs (Power On/Reset Diagnostics). DR BIU Extended Mode PRDs (Power On/Reset Diagnostics). All DR BIU Board SLDs (System Level Diagnostics). All DR SC Board SLDs (System Level Diagnostics). All DR I/O Board SLDs (System Level Diagnostics).

DESCRIPTION The link protocol between the DR BIU processor and the DR Module consists of several handshakes. When the last character of a command, the ETX, is transmitted from the DR BIU, the DR Module has approximately 20 msec. to acknowledge reception of the command by sending back an ACK character. It must do this before it even begins to respond to it. If the ACK character is not received within the proper time frame, the DR BIU will retransmit the command and again wait for acknowledgement. The DR BIU will attempt to retransmit the command three times, and if it still does not receive acknowledgement, it will report this error to the ASC and drop the command on the floor. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS Suspect that the DR Module has died. If, however, it appears to be functioning, run the following diagnostic test(s) and take the recommended actions for the test(s) should a failure occur.

DESCRIPTION When the operator depresses the fluoro switch, the ASC will indicate this to the DR BIU processor via the GE bus. The DR BIU will in turn initiate the following sequence: The ACQ–REQ signal (Pin 18 of U178) in the parallel I/O interface is set low by the DR BIU. The DR Module responds within 10 msec. by setting the ACQ–GNT signal (Pin 11 of U180) high. (Note: No test is made to insure that the ACQ–GNT signal was low prior to the setting of the ACQ–REQ signal.) Upon seeing ACQ–GNT high, the DR BIU will then set the FLUORO SWITCH signal (Pin 7 of U178) in the parallel I/O interface low. The DR Module responds within 10 msec. by setting the DR–RDY signal (Pin 7 of U133) low. Failure to do so results in this error message being reported to the ASC. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS Run the following diagnostic test(s) and take the recommended actions for the test(s) should a failure occur. DR BIU Extended Mode PRDs (Power On/Reset Diagnostics). All DR BIU Board SLDs (System Level Diagnostics). All DR SC Board SLDs (System Level Diagnostics). All DR I/O Board SLDs (System Level Diagnostics).

DESCRIPTION The selecting of the appropriate sync mode by the DR BIU is accomplished in the following manner: If interlaced sync is requested, the DR BIU will set the INT–SYNC signal (Pin 14 of U178) in the parallel I/O interface low. The DR Module then has approx. 0.5 seconds to respond by setting the SYNC–ACK signal at pin 4 of the Duart chip (U133) high. If progressive sync is requested, the DR BIU will set the INT–SYNC signal (Pin 14 of U178) in the parallel I/O interface high. The DR Module then has approx. 0.5 seconds to respond by setting the SYNC–ACK signal at pin 4 of the Duart chip (U133) low. Failure of the DR Module to respond in the manner described above for either sync request will result in this error being reported to the ASC.

ERROR TYPE
Hardware
DESCRIPTION The link protocol between the DR BIU processor and the DR Module consists of several handshakes. When the last character of a command, the ETX, is transmitted from the DR BIU, the DR Module acknowledges reception of the command by immediately (within approx. 20 msec) by sending back an ACK character. It then has a specified period of time in which to respond to the command and report back to the DR BIU that it has done so. If the response is not received within the proper time frame, the DR BIU will report this error to the ASC. (Note: The period of time which the DR BIU waits varies from command to command.) RECOMMENDED ACTIONS Suspect that the DR Module has died. If, however, it appears to be functioning, run the following diagnostic test(s) and take the recommended actions for the test(s) should a failure occur.

Should it not recognize the command or should it detect an error in the transmission it will instead send a NAK character. The DR BIU must retransmit the command and again wait for acknowledgement. The DR BIU will attempt to retransmit the command three times, and if it still receives NAK’s, it will report this error to the ASC and drop the command on the floor.

DESCRIPTION This error is generated when the enable cine trial command is received and the software thinks it is running the camera at the time. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS 1. 2. 3.
4. 5.
If the camera is not running, try cycling the console (warm start). Recycle the system power (cold start) to try and clear problem. Persistent problem indicates either the CINE module has a problem with the software or the ram. Verify the CINE ram with PRD tests. Run the extended PRD tests (RAM/Arcnet) on the CINE module (set switch 3 of bank S165 to the OFF position, and reset the CINE module). Refer to the “Advantx Power–On/Reset Diagnostics” manual if an error should occur. Try replacing the Applications floppy. It could mean there is a software bug and the events that lead to the error should be noted.

DESCRIPTION At VIC initialization a line is characterized that plots light bias DAC output values against signal current read back. This line is used by the VIC to calculate the DAC output value required for the signal current requested by the light bias command. The line is determined by outputting two values to the light bias DAC and reading back their corresponding signal currents. If the signal currents are within 10 A/D bits of each other, a problem is assumed. That is, changing the amount of voltage to the light bias LEDs is not causing a corresponding change in the amount of signal current read back. This error is saved by the system and is not reported until a non–zero amount of light bias is requested, This would happen at prep for the record modes and at release of prep and system initialization for fluoro modes. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS 1.

The following components are suspect: - Light Bias Ring connection - Light Bias Ring (VIC2 A3 A2) - Camera Interface Board (VIC1 A9) Run the following diagnostic test(s) and take the recommended actions for the test(s) should a failure occur. - VIC Sync and Timing Board Tests. Turn the console off. Darken the room and remove one of the small rectangular access panels at the base of the camera. Reboot the VIC. Turn the console on and observe the light bias ring through the access port. After approximately 30 to 45 seconds the initialization of the light bias will occur and green light should be visible for a few moments. If the system comes up and there was no light visible then there is definitely a problem. Check the connection of the light bias ring into the camera head. Replace the Camera Interface Board.

DESCRIPTION A search for a mark or run did not complete. This is most often caused by starting the active runs too close to either the beginning or end of the tape. The VTR will not allow searches to move too close to the ends of the tape. If a search to a point too close to the end of the tape is attempted, the VTR will not allow completion and this error will occur. This can also occur if a Cue/Record is attempted before there are any valid runs in the system. The software will attempt to cue the recorder to time 00:00:00.01 which may not be attainable given the state of the recorder clock. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS 1.
2.
If this occurred prior to creating any runs, then the proper procedure is to position the tape approximately five minutes from the beginning of the tape and hit the reset button twice. This will cause the system to display a Recorder Ready message and the system will be ready to begin recordings. If the error occurred after some valid runs have been made, then the operator will need to live with the problem of possibly not being able to easily access the runs near the beginning of the tape. When search does not work, it is possible that the runs may be accessible via the shuttle button. In any case be sure that the operator is instructed in the proper procedure before using the system again.

Verify that the destination id is valid for the system and that the node IDs of the modules are set correctly. Recycle the system power (cold start) to try and clear problem. Make sure all GE bus cables are good and connected properly. For invalid destination verify the CPU ram is ok. To do this, run the extended PRD tests (RAM/Arcnet) on the Positioner module (set switch 3 of bank S165 to the OFF position, and reset the Positioner module). Refer to the “Advantx Power–On/Reset Diagnostics” manual if an error should occur. Reboot the system using the diagnostics floppy disk. Run the following test: ARCNET Interrupt This test appears under the BIU Board entry in the positioner menu. Refer to the Advantx Diagnostics manual if an error should occur in this test.

Move the film changer down so under 30cm condition is satisfied. CC button will stop flashing. Make sure Film changer is at proper end of travel position for L/U angle combination. Trace the EOT signal if not properly indicating at the I/O board. Check that the system is really in CC mode by pressing CC switch to turn it off. Then try Prepping to check interlocks. Should it still occur then the CC SW signal is not being seen properly and should be traced out to find out where the problem is. Verify that the L and U angles displayed are correct for the position. If not then trace out the one that is wrong. If the angles change with movement of the arms then try a database restore. Then try recal of the arm that is not displaying correctly. Reboot the system using the diagnostics floppy disk. Run the following tests to aid in determining if there is a hardware problem: L Angle A/D Film Changer Interchange U Angle A/D Cerebral Contact Switch Film Changer Iso A/D Cerebral Contact Lamp These tests appear under the Device I/O Board entry in the positioner menu. Refer to the Advantx Diagnostics manual if an error should occur in any of these tests. Try re–cycling the console power (warm start) to try and clear problem. Run the extended PRD tests (RAM/Arcnet) on the Positioner module (set switch 3 of bank S165 to the OFF position, and reset the Positioner module). Refer to the “Advantx Power–On/Reset Diagnostics” manual if an error should occur.

Each byte received is checked for the correct pattern sequence. If the sequence is incorrect, this error is reported, and all bytes received are discarded until a new data packet is detected. Note that if more than one byte is missed, it is possible that the receiver will miss the error condition. When this condition occurs, “E$Host_Unexpected_Strt_Byte” will be reported at the start of the next packet. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

DESCRIPTION During applications mode, the host executed an internal mode change and reported this to the Vascular positioner. If the host mode is changed due to an error condition, the error will be reported at the same time (usually just prior to this one); the new mode will normally be “degraded” or “failure.” Note:
Under normal conditions the host cannot change modes to calibration or diagnostics without command from the VPM.

3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.
Use opposite motion to bring table out of the illegal region by trying to center the table top and angulate towards horizontal. The motion that caused the error to be displayed will be allowed when the table is not in the illegal region. Reboot the system using the diagnostics floppy disk. Run the following tests: Table Top Lat/Long Motion Test Table Top Angulation Test These tests appear under the R+F Interface Board entry in the “R+F” menu. Refer to the “Advantx R+F Diagnostics” manual if an error should occur in either test. Check the angulation and longitudinal top feedback pots for proper operation. Verify that the angulation switches are wired correctly. Wired backwards the table may angulate correctly but the retraction points will not occur at the proper places for the direction. Check the table motors as they may not be stopping fast enough and coasting past the allowed boundary. Try changing the Angulation board. Restore the database as the cal data may be corrupted. Recycle the console power (warm start) to see if it recurs. Recycle the system power (cold start) in an attempt to clear it.

DESCRIPTION This error indicates that a remote film advance on the console was attempted and the camera is already doing a transport due to the manual pushbutton film advance. It is generated when the ASC film advance command is received on the GE bus and an internal flag indicates a transport is occurring based on the camera’s advance pushbutton. The transport control is timed using the 80188’s Timer 0. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
6.
If the camera pushbutton had not been pressed when this happens, then the manual advance did not complete. The film jam error may have occurred prior to this. Verify that the film is transporting and that the camera is ready when done. Cycle the console power (warm start). Run the extended PRD tests (RAM/Arcnet) on the PHOTOSPOT module (set switch 3 of bank S165 to the OFF position, and reset the PHOTOSPOT module). Refer to the “Advantx Power–On/Reset Diagnostics” manual if an error should occur. Run the extended PRD diagnostic tests on the ASC module (set switch 3 of bank S153 to the OFF position, and reset the ASC module). Refer to the “Advantx Power–On/Reset Diagnostics” manual if an error should occur. Reboot the system using the diagnostics floppy disk. Run the following tests: 80188 Timers 0, 1 & 2 80188 PIC These tests appear under the PCM CPU Board entry in the “PHOTOSPOT” menu. Refer to the “Advantx Photospot Diagnostics” manual if an error should occur in either test. Recycle power (cold start) on the system.

Reboot the system using the diagnostics floppy disk. Run the following tests: 80188 Timers 0, 1 & 2 80188 PIC These tests appear under the PCM CPU Board entry in the “PHOTOSPOT” menu. Refer to the “Advantx Photospot Diagnostics” manual if an error should occur in either test. Run the extended PRD tests (RAM/Arcnet) on the PHOTOSPOT module (set switch 3 of bank S165 to the OFF position, and reset the PHOTOSPOT module). Refer to the “Advantx Power–On/Reset Diagnostics” manual if an error should occur. Recycle power (cold start) on the system.

Runtime database error. Call service promptly and continue.
MODULE
ASC
DESCRIPTION This error is reported at warm start if the values in NV_G_fil_correction_X do not equal NOT (NV_G_fil_correction_not_X). This indicates that a portion of the NV runtime database was corrupted somehow. The error is reported and the NV_G_fil_correction_at_cal_X values are sent to the ECM instead. The values in NV_G_fil_correction_X and NV_G_fil_correction_not_X are updated when exposure status is received from the ECM, so these values should be reset to appropriate values once exposures are taken. Note that the NV_G_fil_correction_X and NV_G_fil_correction_not_X structures are stored in the runtime portion of NV RAM and as such are not included in the NV RAM checksum computations. Therefore, the fil correction values may be corrupt even though a bad NV checksum error is never encountered. RECOMMENDED ACTION If this error is reported frequently at warm start a service person should check the validity of the NV RAM. Check the error log for conventional NV RAM checksum errors (6903H or 6904H). This may give an indication if it’s a problem with the overall NV RAM (bad batteries perhaps?) or if it’s just limited to the NV runtime portion of NV RAM.

DESCRIPTION This error is reported at warm start if the values in NV_G_fil_correction_X have increased from their initial values in NV_G_fil_correction_at_cal_X by more than 3B$0000H. This error is for display only, no corrective action is taken in the software. In a system that is operating normally, this error will appear after an extended period of time where the filaments have aged and the filament correction value has been increased to compensate for the aging effects. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS
1.
2.
3.
If the mA feedback is unusually high because of some other error such as mA meter saturation (42EAH), grid short (42B6H) or tube spit (42CAH) errors, the Filament Control Algorithm in the ECM may increase the filament correction value more than usual and this error may be encountered. Therefore, the error log should be checked for these types of errors to determine if the filament correction value is being increased because of some other sort of error. When this error is reported and the above mentioned errors have been checked for and corrected, a service person should re–calibrate the filament drive values. The following units are used to calibrate these values: R003 – Rad X102 – Cine X100,X101 – Conventional Fluoro X120,X121 – Progressive Fluoro The USER field of the error block contains the Tube, Focal Spot and Function in the following manner: USER error status = TFnI, where: T = tube number F = focal spot (0 = small, 1 = medium, 2 = large) n=0 I = function ==> 0 = rad ==> 1 = Cine ==> 2 = Conventional Fluoro ==> 3 = Progressive Fluoro

DESCRIPTION This message is a result of an INSITE Electronic Device ID software failure to read/access the ASC i2c devices properly or the Advantx–E software finds that the devices have bad programming. This error is in no way a hindrance to the system performance. It is decided that these errors are not displayed only logged. This error would normally occur at installation time or configuration time. So either before the system ships or after the system is installed it is the normal procedure to examine and scrutinize the error log to see what anomalies are occurring. So these errors as with other logged only errors will flag the service person upon examination of the error log to look up the recommended actions. (It is possible that installed TC and Carmen systems may generate these errors with software upgraded after New World M4 if the device IDs were badly programmed. RECOMMENDED ACTION 1. If the error(s) persist after a few hours of use, the ASC Diagnostics for the ASC BIU Board ID Memory Test needs to be run to determine which i2c device has failed. 2. A board i2c device may not be programmed and INSITE EID reads will not work.

Error 6601 RECOMMENDED ACTIONS 1.
Many of the addresses used by the AUP software are calculated based on values found on the AUP memory board. If a portion of the AUP database has been corrupted, it is possible that these values are corrupt and will result in invalid addresses being sent to the AMB utilities. Run Service Mode unit C037 – Autoprotocol Memory Init and then restore a backup version of the procedures using Procedure Edit’s SAVE/RETRIEVE function; see if the problem has been corrected.
2.
Check that the AUP memory board is securely attached to the ASC CPU board and that its battery voltage is okay (approximately 3.6 volts).
3.
Perform diagnostic tests on the AUP memory board to ensure it is accessible. If the AMB is being used, make sure all portions of the first 512K of AMB memory are okay.
4.
If this error is seen on the lateral half of a biplane system, check the error log on the frontal to see if it is encountering errors when attempting to access the AUP memory board. If no errors are found on the frontal (i.e. the AUP memory board appears to be okay), it is possible there are ARCNET problems between the frontal and lateral planes. Run biplane ARCNET diagnostics between the frontal and lateral planes. Also, since the biplane sync mailbox timeout on the lateral plane is equal to three seconds, verify that some other higher priority tasks on the frontal are not taking up this three second window so that the sync mailbox is sent back too late (note that there should be a corresponding “mailbox not active” error on the lateral plane once the frontal finally sends the sync mailbox if this is true).
5.
Run the extended PRD diagnostic tests on the ASC module. Refer to the “Advantx Power–On/Reset Diagnostics” manual for instructions and recommended actions should an error occur.

ASC — Procedure Edit (Auto-protocols) Code Module
DESCRIPTION This error indicates two different problems depending on when it is displayed : warm start
at warm start time, the AUP software will read the AUP data base version number stored on the AUP memory board with the version number expected by the current software. If these version numbers are not equal, the AUP software will remove itself from the list of active applications and the PROCEDURE MENU button will not be displayed. Note that this error is displayed in AUP mode while error 6605 is displayed if in PED mode.
AUP data base retrieve
when the AUP software attempts to restore procedures from a procedure edit backup floppy, it first makes sure the AUP data base version of the backup is compatible with the current version number supported by the software. If the version numbers are not compatible, the retrieve will be prevented. Generally speaking, AUP data bases may be retrieved which have AUP version numbers which are smaller than or equal to the current version number supported by the AUP software but not the other way around (i.e. backups made from an earlier Advantx model period may be retrieved but not vice–versa). Consult the Autoprotocols Compatibility SDD for a list of AUP data base version numbers corresponding to specific Advantx model periods.

Error 6602 RECOMMENDED ACTIONS 1.
If this error is occurring at warm start time, run Service Mode unit C037 – Autoprotocol Memory Init and then restore the appropriate backup version of the procedures using Procedure Edit’s SAVE/RETRIEVE function; see if the problem has been corrected.
2.
If this error is occurring while trying to use Procedure Edit’s SAVE/RETRIEVE function, the backup floppy which is being restored is either corrupt, was made on a system prior to model period 5, or was made on a system which is more current (i.e. at a larger version number) than this system. Fetch a backup floppy from a compatible model period and try again.
3.
Check that the AUP memory board is securely attached to the ASC CPU board and that its battery voltage is okay (approximately 3.6 volts).
4.
Perform diagnostic tests on the AUP memory board to ensure it is accessible. If an AMB is being used, make sure the lowest portions of the AMB memory are okay (version # is stored at address zero).

ASC — Procedure Edit (Auto-protocols) Code Module
DESCRIPTION See error 6602. This is the error displayed at warm start time during PED mode if the AUP data base version number stored on the AUP memory board does not match the expected version number stored on the Procedure Edit disk. Although the condition causing this error and the error text are actually the same for errors 6602 and 6605, this error will cause the system to abort while error 6602 will not. This makes sense since during PED mode, only Procedure Edit functions are available (i.e. no exposures are possible); since the AUP memory board appears to be uninitialized or there is some sort of problem with it, the system simply aborts since nothing else can be done. In AUP mode, even though the autoprotocol functions will be prohibited by the absence of the PROCEDURE MENU key, the operator may still use the system to take exposures, so it doesn’t make sense to abort. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS 1.
Run Service Mode unit C037 – Autoprotocol Memory Init and then restore the appropriate backup version of the procedures using Procedure Edit’s SAVE/RETRIEVE function; see if the problem has been corrected.
2.
Check that the AUP memory board is securely attached to the ASC CPU board and that its battery voltage is okay (approximately 3.6 volts).

DESCRIPTION This error is displayed when the operator touches the PROCEDURE MENU button during AUP mode but the ped_required flag is set (for biplane systems, this error will be displayed if either the frontal’s or the lateral’s ped_required flag is set). This error indicates a change has been made to the NV RAM database which potentially affects some of the data which is already saved in the configured procedures. Procedure Edit should be run so that compatibility checking may be performed to ensure the procedures are still compatible with the NV RAM database. The operator will not be allowed to select any of the procedures until Procedure Edit has been run and the procedures have been checked for compatibility. The ped_required flag is set when certain Service Mode Cal/Config units are performed which affect the database or whenever the NV RAM database is initialized by using Service Mode’s RESTORE function. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS 1.
Boot the Procedure Edit floppy and allow compatibility checking to run. Then reboot the Applications floppy and access the procedures by touching the PROCEDURE MENU button. Note that any procedures whose data had to be modified (i.e. those procedure with a question mark to the left of their name) must be selected during Procedure Edit and reviewed in order to remove the question mark and make the procedure accessible during Applications mode.

Auto Return Failed. Appl Defaults in Effect.
DESCRIPTION The FastBoot auto return functionality can not be effectuated, and the default application mode and parameters are being restored. The cause could have been that the NVRAM has failed or that the system was somehow halted during the runtime snapshots. In biplane systems, the cause could be that the LAT has a snapshot belonging to a different application relative to FRNT. This can happen under the following scenarios: the LAT plane was halted before mode change has a chance to complete, or user has changed receptor while running as single plane and LAT was then brought back online, or the auto return dipswitch has been activated on LAT but not on FRNT. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS Mode and parameters displayed on console might be different from settings previously used before the reboot. Check application mode and parameters deemed important to the acquisition, and adjust if necessary. This is a rare event and call service if this error persists.
