16 Service Manual
ORTHOPANTOMOGRAPH OP30 2. Unit Description

2.5 Electrical description

Circuit boards
Circuit boards are described in detail in section 3. Cir-
cuit Boards.

Power supply
Mains voltage is supplied to P1910 PFC Power Supply
Board via L1600 Z-Motor Driver. P1910 supplies power
to L1800 Generator Board and L1500 Power Supply
board which supplies low voltages to all the other circuit
boards.

The power for the AC-motor (Z-Motor) comes from an


autotransformer that is automatically set to the correct
voltage. The Z-Motor input voltage is always 230 VAC.
The autotransformer is connected to L1600.

Main fuses
Two T-10A-H-250V.
Dimensions 6.3x32mm / 1/4x1-1/4". UL approved.

They are located below the main power supply cable at


the rear of the column.

Service Manual 17
2. Unit Description ORTHOPANTOMOGRAPH OP30

Unit control
The unit is controlled by a microprocessor on L1200
(CPU board). It continually monitors and controls the
operation of the unit. A serial peripheral interface com-
munication protocol (SPI - RS485) and direct digital I/O
are used to monitor most of the unit functions.
The microprocessor:
- monitors the optosensors

- monitors control (touch) panel keys

- controls unit movements during exposures

- starts, controls and stops x-ray generation

- controls the digital imaging chain

- controls unit / PC communications


The necessary unit settings and parameters for all the
imaging programs are stored in the memory which is
also on L1200.

Motors and motor control


There is one stepper motor and one AC-motor in the
unit.
The stepper motor drives the rotating unit (R-move-
ment). The stepper motor is driven and controlled by
R5100 (3-Phase Microstepper Driver).

The AC-motor (Z-motor) adjusts the height of the unit


(Z-movement), and the motor is activated by L1600. To
activate the Z-motor L1600 must receive a control sig-
nal from L1200 and a separate control (enable) signal
from the Z-movement (up/down) keys.
An emergency switch on the front of unit disables the Z-
motor (Z-movement) and stepper motor (R-movement)
when pressed.

18 Service Manual
ORTHOPANTOMOGRAPH OP30 2. Unit Description

Exposure logic
An exposure can only be taken when the unit is in the
ready state (the exposure ready light on the control
panel is on) and the exposure button is pressed and
held down.
The Generator board receives the correct kV and mA
references from the CPU. A few milliseconds after the
exposure button is pressed (Expsw) preheat is enabled
(Preh). After 800ms the exposure will start (ExpEna).
The tubehead will receive power from the Generator
board and the Generator board will also start to regulate
the mA and kV according to mA- and kV- feedback.

Service Manual 19
2. Unit Description ORTHOPANTOMOGRAPH OP30

Position control
The position of the rotating unit (R-movement) is moni-
tored by optosensors on L2100 (Rotation Position Sen-
sor Circuit). The optosensors indicate in which sector
the rotating unit is. The optosensors ensure that the
rotating unit is in the correct position, start or PIO (Pa-
tient In/Out), for an exposure.
The statuses of the optosensors are monitored continu-
ally by the unit software.

The upper and lower limits of the vertical carriage (Z-

This description assumes that the unit is ready to take
an exposure.

Image acquisition is controlled by the DSD software


component which is installed in the PC connected to the
unit.

When an exposure is taken L1200 (the CPU) then


sends a PPOWER and CCDENA signal. CCDENA sig-
nal activates voltages for the CCD sensor.

The CPU's control software continuously monitors the


status of the connection with the DSD driver. After im-
age exposure but before image transfer the CPU sends
a label that includes the imaging and dose parameters
(kV/mA/ s) and an imaging program identifier.

The CPU enables the IMAGE signal to activate pixel


clocking. The CPU then produces the TDI clock signal,
which clocks the pixels from the CCD sensor. Derivation
of several CCD clock signals from the TDI clock is done
by the CCD sensor board.

20 Service Manual
ORTHOPANTOMOGRAPH OP30 2. Unit Description

Radiation striking the CCD sensor is converted to vis-


ible light which is detected by the CCD cell. A binning
procedure is carried out on individual pixels, i.e. two ad-
jacent pixels in a row and column (2 x 2 binning) forms
one large pixel (96m x 96m). The output voltage of
the CCD is fed to a 14-bit A/D converter.

The CCD sensor board sends the image data (now 12


bits) to the CPU board where they are saved on the
SDRAM. The image information is transferred to the PC
via the Ethernet cable.

In the PC there is a Network Interface Card (NIC). After


image data transfer the DSD preprocesses the raw
image, for example it interpolates gaps between CCD
chips, and carries out dark current correction and gain
correction (the pixels do not have equal characteristics).

ORTHOPANTOMOGRAPH OP30 3. Circuit Boards - L1500

L1500 - Description
L1500 supplies different voltages to most of the circuit
boards in the unit. L1500 receives +27V5 and -20V from
P1910 PFC and regulates these voltages to produce
the other voltages that the unit requires.
The CCD sensor require +3.3V, +3.3V, +3V, +15V,
-9.4V, +5V.
L900 and the 3-phase stepper motor require 24V.
L1200 and peripheral electronics require a regulated
5VDC power supply.

P1910 measures mains voltage. This value is converted


to frequency signal and is then transferred to L1500
board. On L1500 board the signal is converted to DC
voltage. This DC voltage is measured by AD-converters
on L1200 CPU board.

ment. Based on the logic on the circuit board, the move-
ment of the AC motor is enabled or prohibited. Three
triacs control the Z-motor currents. Outputs are opto-
coupled from the user inputs with TLP3063 circuits. The
board also includes light controls for the laser position-
ing lights.

4.1 Initial checks

Restarting the unit


If the unit fails to operate, does not operate correctly or
if an error code appears, switch the unit off, wait for a
few seconds and then switch the unit on again. If the
unit still does not operate correctly or the error message
reappears, follow the troubleshooting procedures de-
scribed here to correct the problem.

If there is a problem with image transfer, close and reo-


pen the dental imaging software and/or restart the PC.

Error Codes
If the unit malfunctions or if it is used incorrectly an error
code will appear on the main control panel.
There are two categories of error code:
- H, user errors, and

- E, system errors.
When an error code appears on the display the unit will
stop working. The unit cannot be operated while the er-
ror code is on the display.
To clear an error code from the display, correct the error
and then press any key on the main control panel (NOT
the side control panel).
NOTE:
Error E18, display failure can only be seen on the serv-
ice assistant.

Checking circuit boards


Circuit boards cannot be repaired in the field. On some
boards some fuses can be replaced. But, if a board is
faulty, replace it.

On most of the circuit boards there are indicator LEDs,


that allow the operation of the board to be monitored,
and test pins (TP), that allow the operation of the board
to be checked. LED and test pin descriptions for each
circuit board are in the section 3 Circuit Boards.
Use a digital multimeter (DMM) when checking boards.

60 Service manual
ORTHOPANTOMOGRAPH OP30 4. Troubleshooting

Checking cables and connectors


Visually check cables for mechanical damage, cuts,
damaged insulation and twists. If a cable is damaged in
any way replace it.

If there is no obvious mechanical damage to a cable but


you think that it may be faulty, use a digital multimeter
(DMM) to check the resistance of the different wires
within the cable. An undamaged wire will have close
to no resistance (>0 ohm), a damaged wire will have a
high resistance value.

Make sure that all cables are correctly and securely at-
tached to their respective connectors. Connectors must
not be loose or misaligned. If the connector has a lock-
ing mechanism make sure that it is locked.

If you find a loose or misaligned connector, disconnect


it and check for bent, broken or missing pins. If there
is damage that can be easily repaired, for example
straightening a bent pin, repair the damage and recon-
nect the connector. If the damage cannot be repaired
replace the cable.
Note that if the connector on the board is also dam-
aged, the board may also have to be replaced.

CAUSE A
Power cut.
SOLUTION A
Check to see if the power has been cut off.

CAUSE B
Unit not connected to the main power supply
SOLUTION B
Make sure that the unit is connected to the main power
supply. Check the condition of the power supply cable.
If it is damaged, replace it.

CAUSE C
The main fuses (2) have blown.
SOLUTION C
Disconnect the main power supply cable from the unit
and then replace the main fuses (2). They are located
below the main power supply cable at the rear of the
column.
The fuse ratings are stated in chapter 2.5 Electrical
description - Main fuses.

The on/off switch light comes on but the display


does not come on.
CAUSE A
L900 (Control panel) is not receiving power or is faulty.
SOLUTION A
Check the supply of power to L900. Power is routed to
L900 as follows:
1. Mains power is supplied to L1600 (Z-Motor Driver.
If L1600 is receiving power lamp LA1 (on L1600)
will be on.
If it is not, check the cables and connectors be-
tween the on/off switch and L1600 (J105 and J106)
and replace the cables if they are faulty.
If the cables are okay, replace L1600.

62 Service manual
ORTHOPANTOMOGRAPH OP30 4. Troubleshooting

2. L1600 (Z-motor driver) supplies mains voltage to


the P1910 (FPC board) via a filter.
Check that LEDs
A5 = +380V,
A8 = 27V5,
A9 = -20V,
A10 = +17V
and A15 = -15V on P1910 are on.
If they are not on check fuse FH2, and replace if
blown.
If the fuse is not blown check and if necessary re-
place the cables between L1600 and the filter and
between the filter and P1910.
If the LEDs on P1910 still remain off, replace
P1910.

If the P1910 LEDs are on but the display is not


working, check the LEDs on L1500 (Power Supply
Board). LED:
D8 = +15V on when CCDENA is active
D9 = +3V on when CCDENA is active
D10 = +3.3VD on when CCDENA is active
D12 = +5V, must be on
D13 = +5V on when CCDENA is active
D14 = -9.9V on when CCDENA is active
D16 = +24V, must be on
D17 = +3.3V, must be on

Test jumper J23 can be used to set on CCDENA;


Open=default, closed=CCDENA enabled

If the LEDs do do not function as described above,


check the cable between P1910 and L1500. Re-
place if faulty.

3. L1500 supplies 24V to L900. At normal state, the


leds burn when 24V voltage is connected to L900.
H1 is +3.3V indicator led, touch controller ic pow-
ered with +3.3V. H2 is +15.8V indicator led for LCD
backlight voltage(OPTREX T-55265GD057J-LW-
CAN not default).
Check that LED H1 is on (green). Check that LED
H2 is on (green). If LEDs H1 and H2 are not on
replace L900.
H3 is on (green) as the +5V comes from L1200
(CPU board).

4. Check the cables between L900 and the LCD-dis-


play. If the cables are okay, replace LCD-display.
Check the cable between L900 and L1200, replace

SOLUTION
L2100 can be checked by using the service command
"optotest", see section Service Assistant and Service
Functions.
The optotest command displays values that indicate
the position of L2100. When you manually rotate the
rotating unit the values should change, sector 0, sector
1, sector 2 and sector 3, which indicates that the op-
tosensors on the board are working and that L2100 is
functioning correctly.
If the values do not change, L2100 or the cable from
L1700 to L2100 is defective.
If L2100 is functioning correctly it indicates that there is
a problem with the stepper motor.
Check if R5100, the stepper motor or cable from R5100
to the stepper motor are faulty. Replace any that are.

SOLUTION B
Check to see if lamp LA1 and LED D1 on L1600 are on.
If they are not then check fuses F1 and F2. Replace if
blown.
If after replacing fuse F2 lamp LA1 comes on but LED
D1 still does not come on,check cables between L1600
and L1700. If the cables are OK, check if D12 is on on
L1500. If it's not, replace L1500.

If LA1 and D1 are on check the cable from L1600


(J104) to the Z-motor. Replace if faulty.
If the cable is not faulty measure the AC voltage from
the Z-motor connector, on L1600, to the Z-motor. Press
the UP/DOWN key and check that there is an AC-volt-
age.
Note that you need to connect the DMM differently
when running the unit in the Up direction and in the

Error codes E0, E1 and E2


NOTE:
Error codes E0, E1, E2 all indicate that the tubehead
and/or Generator board are not functioning correctly.

E0 (Tube arcing)
CAUSE
Tube arcing.
NOTE:
Check the tube fail LED (red) in the upper right corner
of the Generator board. If it is on it indicates that the
tube is arcing.
E1 (tubehead voltage)
CAUSE
Tubehead voltage (kV) out of limits.
E2 (tubehead current)
CAUSE
Tubehead current (mA) out of limits.
SOLUTION
Use the S2terminalt to check the mA and kV feedback
signals from the tubehead to see if the tube voltage and
current are correct (Software Check).
See S2terminal and service functions.

If the feedback values are not correct use the exp ser-
vice function to measure and compare the values (Re-
fer to Service Assistant and Service functions in section
5).

Select an exposure time of 2000 ms (2 seconds) or


greater so that the mAfb and kVfb ADC values can be
measured.

CAUTION:
Protect yourself from radiation when carrying out
this procedure.

Press and hold down the exposure button. The "actual"


mAfb and kVfb ADC values will appear on the display
next to "target" values.
If the "actual" values differ by less that 2kV from the
target values, the tubehead is working correctly.

72 Service manual
ORTHOPANTOMOGRAPH OP30 4. Troubleshooting

If the "actual" values differ by more than 2kV from the


target values, it indicates that there is a problem and
the tubehead must be recalibrated.

From the Service Assistant select calib and calibrate


the tubehead.
NOTE:
Keep exposure switch pressed for the duration of the
calibration program.
After recalibrating the tubehead check if the calibration
was successful.

If the calibration is successful select the exp function


again and confirm that the mA and kV feedback signals
are correct.

If the calibration was unsuccessful and the unit still


does not work correctly, check the hardware.

Hardware check
Remove the cables from the tubehead side of the rotat-
ing unit. Check the cables between the Tubehead and
the Generator board. Replace them if they are faulty
and then recalibrate (calib) the tubehead.

If recalibration is not sucessful, measure the feedback


signals from the L1800 Generator board. From the Ser-
vice Assistant select exp.

Connect a DMM to the TP14 (kVfb) and TP17 (GND) on


the Generator board and take an expose.

Then connect the DMM to TP18 (mAfb) and TP17


(GND) and take another exposure.
The values for feedback signals can be counted as de-
scribed in chapter 3.6 L1800, Generator Board - Test
points

If values for the feedback signals are not within the lim-
its, and recalibration does not help, measure the refer-
ence signals from L1800 Generator board.

Service manual 73
4. Troubleshooting ORTHOPANTOMOGRAPH OP30

Connect a DMM to TP12 (kVref) and TP17 (GND) on


L1800 and take an exposure.

Then connect the DMM to TP11 (mAref) and TP17


(GND) and take another exposure.
The values for feedback signals can be counted as de-
scribed in chapter 3.6 L1800, Generator Board - Test
points

If the reference values are correct, but feed back values


are not, the Tubehead and/or the Generator board may
be faulty and must be replaced.
If there are no reference signals check the cabling be-
tween the L1800 Generator board and L1700. Replace
if faulty.

Error E10 (CCD initialization/configuration failure)


CAUSE
There is no serial bus connection or the CCD sensor
could not configure itself.
SOLUTION
Check the condition of all the cables and connectors to/
from the CCD sensor as well as the cables from CPU
to L1700 and cables between L1700 and L1500. Check
that none of the fuses on L1500 have blown.
Check that CCD filter board is mounted correctly and
cables are properly connected. If the problem still
exists, replace sensor.

Error E11 (CCD power failure)


CAUSE
Supply voltages to the CCD sensor were not within tol-
erances during imaging.
SOLUTION
Check the condition of all the cables and connectors to/
from the CCD sensor.
Check the voltages on L1500 by checking the refer-
ence LEDs. Always measure the voltages from the test
points. Note that the voltages are only enabled during
an exposure. To enable the CCD voltages without tak-
ing an exposure, connect a jumper to J23. Remove the
the jumper after taking measurements.
