INTERFACE CONTROLLER
INTRODUCTION

The IMS2760 Digital System " F R O M 03/28/96 serial 2016 C - A R M " includes the industrial standard Intelligent
Drive Electronics (IDE/ATA) digital disk interface. IMS only uses the I D E / A T A hard drive, and floppy
interfaces as of this date. With some configurations a drive controller Vesa Local Bus will be needed.

The IDE interface includes a 16 or 32 bit, bi-directional buffer. The floppy disk drive controller interface
supports the 1.44M 3 1/2" micro floppy disk, which is used for service troubleshooting and copping images to a
" B M P " file format.

NOTE: IDE/ATA drives are pre-formatted at the factory. Do not attempt to use AT diagnostics to perform a
low-level format, it cannot provide 1:1 interleave, and some IDE drives do not support low level format with
diagnostics. If you find it necessary to perform a low-level format due to image or data return failures, return
the drive to IMS for repair or reformatting.

We may use several types of controllers in the 1MS2760 Digital system. However it is important which type is
in our system. It must support a high speed main bus C L K of grater than 10 Mhz and be fully I D E / A T A , Mode 4 ,
PCI compatible.

NOTE: The IDE controller is located on the main CPU board with IMS2760 DSA/CINE system. The IDE
controller is a PCI bus device and is directly linked with the Pentium processor therefore the need for a sperate
controller is not needed. All systems with a pentium processor will require the BIOS set to IDE mode 4
operation.

Note: When Replacing the Hard Drive all Patient data files and image files will he lost and can not he
retrieved as they are part of the Drive that has been removed.

Note: Although offset/gain values are set at the factory, adjustment may be required due to subsequent field
adjustments, user preferences, etc.

System Hard Drive information:

The I D E / A T A drive used in the IMS2760 Digital system is listed below with storage capabilities, type, sector
values, heads, etc for the drive. This information is necessary for reconfiguration of the C P U BIOS
Configuration tables.

SEGATE DECATHLON ST5850A 1656 CYL 16 HEADS 63 SECTORS. 800 MB

NOTE: FOR SYSTEM OPERATION UNDER CONTROL OF THE IMS2760 5000 MB IS USED IF DSA, CINE
4F/SEC OPTION WAS NOT PURCHASED

This drives are high G shock rated, with retractable self locking read write heads. The run shock rating is
> lOG's. Power off rating is > 60 to 70G's.

 The ST 5850A drive when formatted will allow the storage of 800 M B of information. Each image stored is a
512 X 1135 X10 bit image. This equals approx. 750,000 bytes of information. Thus we can store 2 images per 1.5
megabyte. This means with the overhead of the DISK OPERATING SYSTEM, patient files, operating
software, and misc house keeping files we can store 320 frames on this disk if the disk is configured correctly.

NOTE: Each system is ordered with a set image file size i.e., 16, 320 frame, or 320 frames + 250 frames with 2F/
sec Chole option or 500 frames with 4F/Sec Dynamic Disk Drive Software support. The system software looks at
the IMS2760.EXE file for size and Patient Data and limits image storage to the maximum value i n the program
software.

System BIOS CMOS configuration will require this information to properly control the hard drive.

Partition information:

The Hard Drive for theIMS2760 Digital System will only have a 10 Megabyte DOS partition. The 10MB area
is also formatted to allow the system to boot with the IMS2760 software. C: drive must have an active
partition for self booting of the hard drive.

Flowchart
The image storage area is addressed by cylinder, sector, and track. This allows for controlled image storage and
lower overhead in the store times needed for Image Page Display (16 images on monitor at once). See Example 2
