Cassette and image plate details:


# Description
A The image plate is glued to a 0.3 mm sheet metal carrier.
The cassette has a cassette label attached allowing the user to label the
cassette.
B The shutter is unlocked by pushing the cassette lock.

C The cassette lock is either opened manually via cassette key (part of cassette
delivery) or by the Cassette Unit when inserting the cassette.
D Backscatter protection is given by the IP carrier (sheet metal). This replaces the
lead layer used in other Agfa CR cassettes.
E Each image plate carrier has a fluorescent label attached. Functions of the
label:
Indicate begin of scan (BOS) and begin of line (BOL) for scanning. This is done
via the fluorescent surface. The barcode keeps image plate specific parameters
which influence scanning. On the barcode label the expiration date of the image
plate is written in human readable letters.

1.13 Image plate run

This chapter describes the Image Plate (IP) run of the Digitizer for a default scan cycle.
Overview of the main steps:
 The user inserts the cassette.
 The Cassette Detection Light Sensor detects the cassette: The IP Drawer
Module (Multiformat) pulls out the Image Plate towards the drum with three or
four magnets (depending on the IP size) and the magnetic IP drawer roller. The
Status LED is yellow (SW ≥ ARC_2012) or green (SW < ARC_2012) blinking.
 The laser beam is switched on to read the bar code and the position of the label
on the image plate carrier.
 The magnetic Slow Scan Drum drives the image plate during scan. The IP
Detection (Double) Light Sensor detects the image plate.
 When the Slow Scan Motor has reached the required number of motor steps, it
changes direction: The image plate is transported back.
 The Erasure Unit erases the Image Plate during its movement back into the
cassette.
 The last few centimeters of the way back, the IP Drawer Module (Multiformat)
drives the image plate into the cassette.
 The green status LED indicates the user to remove the cassette. When taking
out the cassette, it is closed again.

The Digitizer performs following activities to transport the image plate towards the
(magnetic) Slow Scan Drum:
 The drawer motor drives the magnets from home position to docking position:
The sheet metal of the image plate gets attracted by the four magnets.
 The drawer motor drives the image plate onto the magnetic drawer unit rollers.
 The magnetic drawer unit rollers take over the image plate and transport it
towards the slow scan drum.
 When the image plate has reached the magnetic slow scan drum, the image
plate is continuously driven by the drum and the drawer unit rollers together.
During this step the barcode is read out.
 During this movement additionally the drawer drives back to end position: In this
position it has no contact anymore with the image plate. The IP drawer light
sensor detects the end position.
 The slow scan drive changes the direction and transports the image plate back
towards cassette until it nearly leaves the roller.
 The slow scan drive changes direction again and speed up the image plate for
scanning. Thereby the barcode label is read again to detect the position of the
image plate (begin of scan and begin of line).
 After recognizing begin of scan signal from barcode and a predefined distance
the image acquisition starts.

1.13.1.3 Taking the Image Plate out of the cassette at Digitizer subtypes 300 and 310

The IP Drawer Module of subtype 300 and 310 has a different design compared to
subtypes 100, 110, 200 and 210. The reason is that it must be able to transport
additional image plate formats reliably in and out of the cassette:
The IP Drawer Module Multiformat of subtype 300 and 310 is equipped with 3 magnetic
rollers and 5 magnets compared with subtypes 100, 110, 200 and 210, which have
2 magnetic rollers and 4 magnets).

The Digitizer performs following activities during scan:


 The Optic Module generates a red, oscillating laser beam.
 The Light Collector collets the blue light, which is emitted by the image plate.
 The Photomultiplier converts the blue light into electrical current.
 The IP Detection (Double) Light Sensor monitors the image plate during scan.
 A spring at the rear end of the IP Guide Plate shifts back the image plate after
scan, in case out of any reason the contact from image plate to the Slow Scan
Drum gets lost.
 When the Slow Scan Drum transports the image plate back, the Erasure Unit
erases the image plate.
 The IP Drawer Module performs the transport back into the cassette, after the
Slow Scan Drum has lost contact to the image plate.
 By a very fast movement back, the IP Drawer Module (Multiformat) magnets loose
contact to the image plate.
 The cassette can be removed by the user: The status LED changes from yellow
(SW ≥ ARC_2012) or green (SW < ARC_2012) blinking to constant green.

1.13.1.5 Releasing the Cassette

After scan, when the image plate is transported back into the cassette, the user has to
press the “Cassette Release Button” to remove the cassette.

 At subtypes 100, 110, 200 and 210, the release of the cassette is not mechanically
blocked. Pressing the “Cassette Release Button” too early is registered by the
“Cassette Detection Sensor” however, and an error message is issued.
 At subtypes 300 and 310 the “Cassette Unit Multiformat” in combination with the
“IP Drawer Unit Multiformat” blocks the release of the cassette mechanically, when
the image plate is not yet returned to the cassette. The mechanical principle is
shown in Figure 19.
Note, that the Drawer Unit Motor actively pushes the Drawer Locking Lever against
the Cassette Locking Bolt. This means, the motor is permanently controlled after
scan, until the Cassette is removed.
When switching off the Digitizer before removal of the Cassette, there are two
ways to get the Cassette out:
1. Remove Cassette Unit and pull out Cassette.
2. Switch on the Digitizer and wait until it is booted up completely.
After the boot-up it is possible to remove the Cassette.

# Comment
1 Approx. 1 second after switch on the status LED starts red blinking.
2 After boot-up of the PMI Board (approx. 17 seconds after switch on), until
sending the self-test signal (approx. 40 seconds after switch on), the Digitizer
performs following actions:
 The internal logging and error messages are loaded.
 The data in the E-labels are compared with the E-label data on the USB
flash drive.
The status LED stays red blinking. No audible actions. No message in the
Error Viewer.
3 Send self-test signal to all SW modules means: Check whether all consumers
are connected. Click sounds of motors are audible. The galvo starts up.
4 When the self-test starts, message “Digitizer start-up” is displayed in the
Digitizer Remote Display.
This message is generated by the Digitizer and will not be displayed however,
if the Error Viewer is not started-up yet. This is the case for example if
Digitizer and workstation are switched on simultaneously.
5 During the IP Clean-up cycle, the drawer motors is briefly audible.
6 If the NX viewer is not running following message appears in the Digitizer
Remote Display: “Image processing software is not available. Restart the
image processing software”. The check whether the NX application is running
is repeated each three seconds, even after successful connection.
Exception: After a scan cycle, when the cassette is waiting to be removed by
the customer, the Digitizer does not check, whether the NX application is
running.

Symptom Banding stripes are visible in the clinical


image or a flatfield image.

Figure 107: Example for banding

Cause Inhomogeneous movement of the slow scan drive.

Solution (1) Check the table where Digitizer is positioned. It must be solid and in a fixed
position. No vibrations may disturb the scanning.
(2) If no vibrations from the table are transferred to the Digitizer:
Escalate to the next support level.

7.7 Troubleshooting shading calibration issues

There are following main reasons for a failed shading calibration:


 Particles in the optical path: Use the cleaning brush to clean the optical path.
 Contamination and/or any defects on the image plate: Clean the image plate
according to the cleaning procedure or use another image plate.
 Image plate wrong exposed (too high / low dose): Check exposure parameters.
 Image plate not exposed on its entire area (wrong collimation): Ensure that the
image plate is entirely exposed.
 PMT exposed to intensive light before calibration (in this case PMT has lower
sensitivity): Wait until the PMT has back the normal sensitivity (time depends on
duration and brightness of the light exposure).

8.2.4 Remote access to the Service functions

Purpose Remote access to the Digitizer means: Connection via a PC in the local network or
via internet.
To prevent that service actions initiated via service user interface interfere with the
operation by the customer, two safety levels are built in the software:
 Level 1: When executing the function (e.g. software installation), the Digitizer status
indicator changes to red constant. The user cannot scan an image.
Note, that the status indicator only changes to red, when the function is really
executed (e.g. by pressing OK). Just by opening the menu, the safety level 1 is not
yet activated.
 Level 2: The service engineer has to confirm in the Error Viewer (installed on the
assigned Workstation), that the function can be executed.
The table below shows the safety level per service menu:

10.2.1 New features and solved issues of Software ARC_1201

 A new Error Viewer version 2.0.9.0 is released together with software ARC_1201.
New features of the Error Viewer:
o Connection between Digitizer and PC is checked periodically: Status indicator
switches to "red triple flashing" if a "ping" to the configured PC fails and to
"fast red blinking" if the connection to the Error Viewer fails. The network
connection failure has the higher priority.
o Title of the Error Viewer panel is changed to "AGFA Digitizer Remote Display".
o If an error is displayed, the user can browse through all previous errors i.e.
errors messages which were closed by pressing the "OK" button.
o Displays now the status “connected” or “offline” in the new status bar.
o The Digitizer checks now the version of the Error Viewer: If this version is not
compatible to the Digitizer software or has severe known bugs, the Digitizer
switches the status indicator to "red fast blinking" to indicate that the
ErrorViewer must be updated to the version which is integrated in the Digitizer
software.
 Reliability of the barcode reading improved.
 Photomultiplier flash memory errors are repaired automatically: The software
doesn't crash anymore if the Photomultiplier flash memory is corrupted.

10.4.1 Solved software issues in Software ARC_1302

 Solution for Headquarter Complaint HQ_1207130004:


With ARC_1302 also a new version of the Digitizer operating system is installed.
This solves the issue with some Digitizer USB flash drives, being too slow for
software installation.
 In software ARC_1201 a workaround was implemented to prevent a software
crash in case of Photomultiplier flash memory errors. Now the final solution is
implemented, to prevent read and write errors of the Photomultiplier flash memory.
 Solved sporadic software issue with Error Viewer being offline each 15 seconds.
The issue may appear if Digitizer and PC are switched on at the same time.
 Solved issue with green blinking status LED after scan for several minutes, if an
error occurred during scan.
 The feedback messages during service function “endurance run” are now updated
with each step (feeding IP, scanning, erasing etc.). Before, the feedback
messages stopped with “feeding IP”, despite endurance run worked fine.

 Solved error ARC_4004 (22757) after exchange of the PMI Board: This error
needed to be solved by performing a shading calibration.
 The default destination settings, that are configured after installing software
including formatting, are identical now with the destination settings as shipped
from production.
 The shading calibration now also can be performed, if the NX application software
is not running.
 Solved issue with wrong error message, if the transfer of the ID data from NX to
the Digitizer does not work correctly: Wrong error message: “Error occurred.
Image plate is not scanned and erased.”. Correct error message: “Error during
read-out of the ID data. Restart PC and Digitizer.”
 Solved software hang-up if the service function “endurance run” was started and
stopped again before a cassette was inserted.

10.4.2 New features of Software ARC_1302

 Improved error code descriptions for all error codes. They are also available offline
in the Service Manual, chapter 3.3, Troubleshooting.
 Function to read the barcode on the image plate is more reliable.
 File ErrorInformation.html with information about the last error (if an error occurs)
is written to USB flash memory if the connection to the Error Viewer on the
NX workstation is not available. This file is removed again when the Error Viewer
is reconnected.
 Support of new type of "PMT with Light Collector". As a consequence, the spare
part "PMT with Light Collector" requires software ≥ ARC_1302. The enclosure
document to the spare part is adapted accordingly.

10.5.1 Solved software issues in Software ARC_1304

Software ARC_1304 solves some software issues, that appeared in production only:
 During boot-up the target high voltage for the Photomultiplier is not reached. Boot-
up stops with error ARC2202 (10753). In software ARC_1304 the adjustment for
the target high voltage is optimized to prevent the issue (HQ_1210190006).
 When the image plate is slipping on the scan drum before scanning starts, the
slow scan motor decelerates already before the last few scan lines were scanned.
This may lead to a decreased density at the last few scan lines (< 1 mm scan
length) (HQ_121008000).
In software ARC_1304 scanning is extended by 3 mm to have enough safety
margin.
 Warning messages about scan length deviations are issued in the Error Viewer,
despite no image distortions are available. In software ARC_1304 the mechanism
to display the warning message is less sensitive.
 Sporadically the Begin of Scan signal is detected too early, due to a timing
problem. In this case error ARC4200 (4254) is displayed. After a reboot the image
is usually scanned without error message. In software ARC_1304 the timing
problem has been corrected.

10.6.1 Solved software issues in Software ARC_1404

 Contains solution for Digitizer service user interface access problems with Internet
Explorer 9 as long as IP address is on 192.192.192.192, by an upgrade of the
Digitizer operating system. A detailed symptom description and workaround was
communicated with SB No. 08 (HQ_1301090001).
 Prevents image fault on the last 7 cm of the Image due to image plates delivered
with wrong IP size code. This issue was communicated with MSB No. 09.
As of software ARC_1404 a wrong IP size code is ignored, so that also image
plates of the affected lot numbers can be used again.

10.6.2 New features of Software ARC_1404

 Together with ARC_1404 a batch file is released to make the Digitizer compatible
with the Error Viewer implemented in SE 2.0. The usage of the batch files is
described in SE 2.0 Service Manual DD+DIS222.11E, Chapter 5, Configuration, as
of revision 2. The batch file is available in the SE 2.0 software download area.
 Supports the additional Digitizer subtypes 110, 200 and 210.
 Some minor improvements in functionality for the operator:
o Displays now an error message if an empty USB flash memory is detected at
start-up.
o Blinking of status indicator during a scan cycle improved: Now the pause
between two "LEDs ON" states is always the same time, even at end of the
cycle. Previously this pause could be “Zero” in some cases (i.e. green status
LED continuously “ON”).
o Improved clean-up cycle at start-up: The IP is moved to the tray only as
much as necessary to be able to find IP and move IP back into the cassette
(i.e. not a fixed distance anymore). This way the IP cannot be lost on the tray
anymore.
 Some minor improvements in functionality for the service user:
o Log file dump in case of an error: A so-called malfunction file with the syntax
“MALF_TYPE_SN_ERRORCODE_DATE_TIME” is generated for each
occurring error. These malfunction files are automatically part of a complete
backup and part of the logfiles backup. They contain all required logfiles and
configuration files for error evaluation when escalating a problem.
o Creates an automatic backup file on the USB flash drive at logout if the
configuration was changed and no backup was made.
o Error Viewer shows now correct time stamps in its error history, i.e. the time
when the error occurred.

o Restoring the backup file does not overwrite the infocounter and service
activity log file anymore.
o Images can now be deleted from the image queue via the service interface.
o Endurance run doesn't hang-up anymore if it is stopped in between.
o ErrorViewer starts now correctly if two Ethernet network cards are installed in
NX and the Digitizer is switched off when the PC is started: No hang-up
anymore.
o Counters for IP cycles and operating hours in the optic module and PMT with
Light Collector are now working correctly.

10.7.1 Solved software issues and improvements in Software ARC_2012

 PR1307090004: Improved galvo* control to support Optic Modules with extreme


galvo characteristics and to minimize errors ARC2101 (10852).
*Galvo = motor for oscillating mirror in the optic module.

 New status indicator blinking codes are introduced to prevent the user from
pressing the cassette release button too early. For details see Note below.

NOTE:
The blinking code as of software ARC_2012 is changed as follows, compared to the
blinking codes in software ARC_1201 to ARC_1404:
 The previous green “600 ms on / 600 ms off” blinking if scan cycle is active is
changed to a “350 ms on / 350 ms off” yellow blinking.
 The previous blue “600 ms on / 600 ms off” blinking if erasure cycle is active is
changed to a “350 ms on / 350 ms off” blinking. The color did not change.

10.7.2 Solved software issues with software ARC_2012

 Solved memory leaks in the Error Viewer and some software components of
software ARC_1404, which can lead to a software crash of the Digitizer, when it
is switched on for many hours.
 Improved error handling in case of IP jams and barcode reading errors by clear
separation of error causes.
 Changes of service functionality:
o The error ARC2101 (10852) is split up in three different error codes (additional
error codes ARC2101 (10858) and ARC2101 (10859)) to be able to
distinguish between different reasons for galvo failures.
o The latest USB driver is now always installed at software installation, no
matter from which software version it starts.
o The Digitizer installation date is automatically set after 10 days of usage (i.e.
minimum one scan cycle on 10 different days).
o Backup file contains now all Digitizer specific files (module counters, settings
and module information like e.g. serial number).
o Modules (PMI board, Photomultiplier, Optic Module) store now the list of
devices, in which they have been installed, correctly.
o Service function "Reporting > Error Statistics" does not crash anymore.

o If the Error Viewer is uninstalled, the specific settings (e.g. the used IP
address in case of several installed network cards) are now kept automatically
and needs not be set again after installing the new Error Viewer.
o A software installation with formatting restores now only some necessary
settings like network settings. Language settings, site information and
destination configuration are removed and have to be set again.
o If the barcode cannot be read because the image plate cannot be transported
to the scan drum correctly, an image plate handling error instead of a barcode
reading error is now displayed and stored in the Infocounter. This prevents
unnecessary optic module replacements.
o If reading of the barcode fails, but the barcode can be read after some retries,
the number of needed retries is stored in the Infocounter for each image plate
/ barcode.
o The USB flash memory, delivered with the Digitizer, contains now the DICOM
limit pattern. Before only the limit pattern in native NX format was included.

10.8.1 New features of software ARC_2102

CR 15-X / CR Multiformat Reader is supported. This involves following software


changes:
 The service GUI contains a new menu “Maintenance Indicator”. For details to this
menu refer to SB No. 14, Document ID 43357111.
 If the maintenance indicator is configured: The user is reminded about a
preventive maintenance visit after each boot-up, as soon as the configured time
or cycle counter is reached.
 Independent on the maintenance indicator configuration: The user is reminded
about a preventive maintenance visit after each boot-up, as soon as 52.500
cycles or 105.000 cycles are reached.
 A second light sensor as part of the “IP Detection Double Light Sensor” is
supported. This sensor checks IP run for IP sizes other than 35 x 43 cm.
 The IP Drawer Motor for CR 15-X / CR Multiformat Reader is permanently
controlled after scan, to enable cassette release.

Note, that these software changes are also present in software ARC_2012. They were
not communicated with SB15, “Software ARC_2102 available with several
improvements”, as ARC_2012 was not released yet for CR 15-X / CR Multiformat
Reader.

10.8.2 Solved software issues with software ARC_2102

 A new galvo* control algorithm shifts the start of the galvo pulse to support a wide
range of galvos. This solves the error messages ARC2101 (10852) with aged
galvos (short pulses) and with high temperature and humidity (long pulses) and
improves the stability of the galvo. This additionally minimizes the occurrence of
user message 327 (internal error 4305: Adjustment of Digitizer components…) if
the user pushes the cassette into the input slot roughly (PR1307090004).
*Galvo = motor for oscillating mirror in the optic module.

 Barcode reading algorithm improved. Inhomogeneous barcodes are now read


successfully.
 Correct error message is displayed if barcode cannot be read.
 The Digitizer Remote Display shows messages in Norwegian language, too.

10.9.1 New features of software ARC_2206


Software ARC_2206 supports now Needle Image Plates (NIP) for CR 15-X Digitizers.
This new feature is available for:
 Subtype 300: (SN > 51500 - production site Germany, SN > 90500 - production
site China)
 Subtype 310: (SN > 46000 - production site Germany)

10.9.2 Solved software issues with software ARC_2206


 Detection of a barcode label on the Image Plate failed. The Digitizer is out of
operation and displays error message ARC1301 (10855) (PR1501220001).
The threshold for barcode detection has been adapted. The barcode is now
detected reliably also for high exposure doses. For a complete listing of solutions
for the error ARC1301 (10855) refer to the enhanced error explanation (meaning,
reason, cure) in the software ARC_2206.
 The motor control for the movement to unlock the cassette has been improved.
(PR1411250006). In addition, a new version of the drawer was introduced, where
the ease of movement of the drawer mechanics has been enhanced. This new
drawer version is available as spare part and can be ordered with the following
spare part number: CM+6040473.
 The algorithm to detect and readout the barcode label, especially for high dose
exposures, has been improved.
 The default cassette format, used in service menu "1.3.5.4. Endurance Run
Cycle" for an Image Plate cycle without scan (e.g. high voltage of the PMT is
switched off) is changed to the format 15 x 30 cm for CR 15-X, respectively 24 x
30 cm for CR 10-X and CR 12-X.
 The retry cycle after a failed attempt to read the barcode label has been
improved.
If the detection and readout of the barcode failed the first time, the IP will now be
transported in the retry cycle with a reduced drawer speed.
 Additional rescue cycle implemented, if the transport of the Image Plate back to
the cassette was not successful.
 Improvements and new data entries in the Infocounter:
- New: Needle IPs are added to the corresponding data fields.
- Cassette and IP jams are properly displayed in chapter 5.5. - Now the activated

10.10.1 Solved software issues with software ARC_2207

Software version ARC_2207 solves following software issue:


Sporadic line artefacts, which occur in combination with software version ARC_2206
(PRB0046158).
Tolerances of the photomultiplier hardware combined with a timing issue in the
software may lead to line artefacts. These line artefacts can be single lines, but also up
to thousands of lines per image.
It is highly recommended to upgrade Digitizers with installed software version
ARC_2206 to software version ARC_2207 or higher.

10.11.1 New functionalities in ARC_2301

 Support of a new CR MD1.0 cassette with format 35 x 35 cm (detailed information


will follow after release of this cassette type).
 The algorithm to detect and readout the barcode label has been further improved,
especially if the barcode is tilted or if the barcode arrives late at the scan line.
 The warning message about a missing shading calibration at start-up of the
Digitizer is now only displayed if neither a valid shading calibration line for PIP nor
for NIP exists.
 The Error Viewer 2.2.8, which is part of the software ARC_2301, can be used also
at NX Workstations running on Windows 8.1 and Windows 10.

10.11.2 Changes of service functionality

 In the service menus "PMT High Voltage on/off" and "Endurance Run Cycle" the
cassette format 24 x 30 cm can now be selected for the CR 10-X (as of SN 5000)
and CR 12-X (as of SN 30500). For details refer to Service Information Bulletin
No.14, Document ID 43357111.
 In the service menu "shading calibration" 5-digit serial numbers of the
photomultiplier and the optics module are now shown correctly.

10.11.3 Solved Problem Record: PRB0048885

Symptom  Increased number of retries during IP handling of CR MD1.0 image plates


 Error messages ARC1300 (10854) / ARC1301 (10855)
Cause The Barcode cannot always be readout reliably when it arrives at the scan position either
tilted or too late.
Solution The algorithm to detect and readout the barcode label has been further improved,
especially if the barcode is tilted or the barcode arrives late at the scan line, e.g. due to slip
of the IP movement out of the cassette to the scan line.
For that purpose the drawer speed is reduced from the first retry on to minimize the slip of
the Image Plate. In case of problems maximum 20 images of failed barcode scans are
stored for more efficient debugging of barcode reading problems.

10.11.4 Other solved software issues in ARC_2301 compared to ARC_2207

 The warning message about a missing shading calibration at start-up of the


Digitizer is now only displayed if a valid shading calibration line exists neither for
PIP nor for NIP. The calibration line for a certain Image Plate type (PIP or NIP) is
valid if the calibration was done with the currently built-in photomultiplier and optics
module. If an Image Plate type (PIP or NIP) is used, where no valid calibration line
exists for this Image Plate type, a warning message is displayed at every scan
cycle.

 The initialization of all floating point registers at startup of the Digitizer resolves
auto-resets of the PMI Board.

 A 5-digit serial number of the photomultiplier is now correctly displayed in the


service menu "shading calibration" and stored in the shading calibration line.
In the previous software versions (SW < ARC_2301) a bug cuts a 5-digit
photomultiplier serial number to a 4-digit serial number and stores the 4-digit serial
number in the shading calibration line. After upgrade to software version
ARC_2301 the error message "22758" (loading the Digitizer calibration data failed)
may be shown, if the software detects a mismatch of the 5-digit photomultiplier
serial number and the clipped 4-digit serial number stored in the shading calibration
line.

 The Error Viewer 2.2.8 solves an issue, that the wrong message "Port 13001
already in use, please close application that uses the port to continue with Digitizer
Remote Display" is displayed if e.g. two network adapters are used at the NX
Workstation.

10.12.1 New functionalities in ARC_2401

 The age of the IP (expiration date of the last scanned IP) is no longer assessed
during the erase mode. Thus the message "The image plate expires in {x} days.
The system performance is going to be worse than specified due to expiry of the
image plate" is no more displayed during erasure of an IP.
 The ErrorViewer application in the Digitizer software now also supports the old
ErrorViewer protocol 1.6.0.0, which is e.g. used for NX-SE resp. the CR acquisition
module via the script ‘Prepare_Configuration_for_SE.cmd’.
 The patch 16 of Portex version 2011.02 supports the new Ethernet Transceiver
chip on the aPMI-Board, which will be introduced in the near future due to
discontinuation of the currently used Transceiver chip.

10.12.2 Changes of service functionality

 The SW routine for the Backup functionality in the Service User Interface has been
speeded up.
Furthermore the Backup file and the Malfunction files now also contain new image
files with timestamps of failed barcode scans.
 The connecting test of the Digitizer to the Error Viewer has been improved.
The automated connecting test via Ethernet to the Error Viewer is no longer
interfering with the connecting test ‘Test Communication’ in the menu ‘Destination
Settings’ in the Service User Interface.
 The Infocounter entries ‘Hardware revision’ and ‘Serial number’ of the Power Board
are now automatically retrieved from the data chip of the installed Power Board.
 The error description for error 15362 (‘DIC could not read acknowledge from HDL’)
has been modified and now mentions a defect of the Power Board as additional
root cause.

10.12.3 Other solved software issues in ARC_2401 compared to ARC_2301

 The SW routine for the Backup functionality in the Service User Interface deletes
now all old backup files on the ‘d:/’ partition before creating a new backup file. This
resolves SW crashes, if the memory of the ‘d:/’ partition is fully allocated.
 The SW routine for the Endurance Run Cycle in the Service User Interface has
been improved to resolve an issue with IPs of format 15 x 30 cm and error code
24065.
 The error handling during the idle mode of the galvanometer has been improved.
This limits the crop up of error 10859 in case the galvanometer synchronization is
lost during idle mode of the galvanometer.

10.14.1 Solved Problem Record in ARC 2503: PRB2000055

Symptom The appearance of a double image is possible.

Cause The Image Plate cannot be returned into the cassette the first time (e.g. due to a
transport issue), but by means of the following clean-up cycle. In this case the Image
Plate is not erased and no error message is shown.

Solution Device software ARC_2503:


The Digitizer recognizes a not erased Image Plate. It continues with a rescue cycle in
order to transport the Image Plate back into the cassette. In case of a successful
rescue cycle it displays the user message 338 "Image plate is not erased! Remove the
cassette and press the confirm button. Do not use the cassette again before an
inspection. Refer to the detailed description in the user manual."
If the rescue cycle fails, a fatal handling error will be displayed.

10.14.2 New functionalities in ARC_2503

 The offset value of the galvo pulse is saved after every adjustment during
operation. This shall prevent that during one of the next galvo adjustments the
time limit may be exceeded and a warning message is triggered that the Digitizer
is adjusting its optics during start-up (code "4304") or before a scan (code
"4305").
During start-up the offset value of the galvo pulse is saved together with pulse
length and period after first adjustment for temperatures below 40°C and over
40°C and used as start value for the next start-up.
 The firmware of the PMI-Board checks continuously the presence of the EOL
(End Of Line) and BOL (Begin Of Line) signals during a scan. If one of the signals
is missing occasionally, the software continues now the scan with the previously
stored galvo values. If a predefined limit is exceeded, the user will get a warning
message.
In the former software versions the scan stopped in such a case and the error
code ARC2101 (codes "10857" or "10772", Optics Module operating conditions
are not within specification) was displayed.
 The operating system is updated to Portex version 2011.02 , patch 18.

Document ID: 42866196 Service Manual

 The ErrorViewer application is updated to version 2.3.1.


This new version supports now the installation of the Error Viewer on Windows 7
or Windows 10 workstations with .NET Frameworks 2.0, 3.5, 4.5 and higher
versions.
In addition, the Error Viewer listens now on all installed network cards of the
workstation and automatically communicates with the Digitizer over the network
card the Digitizer is connected to. A manual configuration is no longer needed.
If the workstation gets its IP address from a DHCP server, the ErrorViewer uses
the replied IP address from the DHCP server and not the default address of the
DHCP configuration.

10.14.3 Changes of service functionality

 The error descriptions for the error codes "ARC2101" (no End Of Line signal
detected), "ARC1300" (barcode decoding error) and ARC1301 (barcode
detection error) have been improved.
In addition certain R&D error codes were linked to dedicated service error codes
("ARCxxxx") or indicated as not relevant, since they are not applicable for CR10-
X, CR12-X or CR15-X.
 Corrupted error codes or cassette IDs in the failure statistics of the Infocounter
file are now detected by the software and deleted automatically to prevent that
such corrupted entries affect the failure statistics of the Digitizer.
 In the Infocounter file, section "1.3 Hardware Info" the hardware revision ("Module
version:" = ID number and revision of the part) for the Optics Module, the PMT
Module and the PMI Board are added. In addition, some minor corrections in the
wording are implemented.
 The SW routine of the Service Menu "Reset Relative Counter" creates now also
an Infocounter file with a 6 digit device serial number.
 The SW routine for the Backup functionality in the Service User Interface adds
now in the filename "00000000" as serial number, in case the Digitizer serial
number cannot be determined (e.g. disconnected device e-Label).
Example of a Backup file name, if Digitizer serial number cannot be determined:
o Former state: BAC_CR10-5151__27Sep2017_13-38-15.zip
o Current state: BAC_CR10-5151_00000000_27Sep2017_13-38-15.zip
 As of Digitizers delivered ex-factory with SW version ARC_2503, the NX Config
Wizards are no longer delivered on the USB flash drive of the Digitizer.
The NX Config Wizards are now located on each new NX workstation:
Path: C:\Agfa\Healthcare\NX\Installers\ArcusWizards
File: ActivateNXxxxxxx.exe
 Minor corrections of the wording in different pages of the Service Menu have
been implemented.

10.14.4 Other solved software issues in ARC_2503 compared to ARC_2402

 The message after restart of the Digitizer (e.g. during software installation)
"Rebooting of the digitizer is ongoing ..." is now displayed completely.
 The age of the Image Plate is ignored during the scan (no longer cycle time)
immediately, when the preventive maintenance was activated in the Service Menu.
In former software versions a reboot of the Digitizer was necessary after activating
the preventive maintenance in order to prevent a longer cycle time for an expired
Image Plate.
 The SW routine to import a cpf-file (Service function Load Digitizer Network Data
from USB Digitizer or from PC) has been corrected.
Now all relevant data from the cpf-file are transferred completely and stored in the
Digitizer configuration settings. Also previously changed configuration settings of
the Digitizer are not lost.
 The SW routine to read the license information on a WIBU USB license drive
(dongle) during start-up of the Digitizer has been improved.
Now the software tries max. 6 times with a pause of 500 msec in between to read
and check the license on the WIBU USB license drive.
In former software versions the error code "27660" (No USB License Drive found.)
was displayed for WIBU USB license drive with a longer response time.

10.15.1 Solved Problem Records in ARC 2504

PRB2000107
Symptom Partially scanned image after erasure cycle with different formats:
The Digitizer wrongly interprets a 35 x 43 cm cassette as a smaller format. The rest of the
image remains un-erased on the image plate.
Subsequently, the next exposure is superimposed over the first image when it is processed
in correct size.
Refer also to the Service Bulletin: CR 10-X_CR 12-X_CR 15-X - SB 31 - Error Code 10858
after upgrade to ARC_2503.
Cause After an erasure cycle it can occur that, due to a DMA conflict, the barcode information of
the erased image plate is used for the next scanned image. In case that the erased IP had
a different format, the currently scanned plate will be only partially scanned or erased.

Solution In erase mode the preparation of the scan unit for the scan is not performed anymore.
Additionally, the last barcode image is deleted from the image memory before a new
barcode scan is started. Therewith, it cannot happen anymore, that the barcode from a
previously erased IP is used in the next scan cycle, if a problem during barcode reading
occurs.

PRB2000112
Symptom Error 10858 may appear after upgrade to ARC_2503:
Error Message ARC2101 (10858):
’’Optic Module operating conditions are not within specification.’’

Cause Line calibration fails if BOL (Begin of Line) signals are missing during the line calibration.

Solution The initial values for the adjustment of the galvanometer period and the galvanometer line
length in the FPGA are now adopted from the offset values (galvo period and pulse length)
stored in the software from a previous adjustment.
Additionally, the software supervises the line length calibration and restarts the complete
galvanometer calibration in case of problems
