This manual in English is the original version.
X-ray equipment generates ionizing radiation, which is potentially hazardous to the patient and personnel. If
not properly used, x-ray equipment may be dangerous. Due to the potentially adverse effects of ionizing
radiation, the following recommendations should be read and understood before attempting to operate this x-
ray equipment.
The x-ray equipment was designed to comply with the recommendations of the United States Center for
devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) as specified in the Code of Federal Regulations Title 21, the
Standards for Medical Devices of the International Electro technical Commission IEC 60601 and Council
Directive 93/42/EEC of the European Commission.
Although this equipment incorporates protection against x-radiation other than the useful beam, practical
design does not provide complete protection. Equipment design does not compel the operation or assistants
to take the necessary precautions, nor does it prevent the possibility of improper use.
Only authorized and properly trained individuals should operate this equipment. All individuals authorized to
use this equipment must be aware of the danger of excessive exposure to radiation. In addition, it is
important that all authorized personnel be familiar with regulatory standards in their country.
One of the recommendations of the guidelines is that doses be kept As Low As Reasonably Achievable
(ALARA). Patient dose should be kept as low as possible without compromising the quality of the procedure.
Authorized operators should avoid exposure to the primary beam at all times. Any object in the path of the
primary beam produces secondary or scattered radiation. Protective measures should be taken to safeguard
against secondary radiation.

3 start-up and Calibration
Before installing the measuring equipment make sure that the main disconnect switch is open !
3.1.1 General
- Connect the service PC to the generator PCB ZST2- piggyback PCB MP15 connector X3.
- Switch on the generator and control the data link between the PCB ZST2 and the service
PC by pressing with the mouse into the right field. If the communication is ok you will see
three curves in this field.
1.
Start up the generator in service mode by pressing the push button and together.
301: :400
A 70kV 100mA 100ms
On the display appears:
301: :302
A 70kV 100mA 100ms
The calibration is described on the basis of the 200mA tube current Code number 927.
Figure 3-1shows the measurement when the stored parameters for the heating current are to high. The
curve over swings before it is regulated to the reference value. Here also regulation time is about 30 ms. The
measured mAs-product it to high and the generator calculate a new filament heat current for the next
exposure.
These curves point out that it is essential to adjust the tube current correctly each time at installation or if a
new tube is installed.
5.2 Call up code No. 921 (Filament current boost during the first second of preparation in mA)
5.3 Call up code No. 922 (the first tube current step to calibrate)
In the display appears the last measured tube current value at the end of the exposure (for example
1,9mA) and the mAs-Produkt of this exposure (2mA * 100ms = 0.2mAs)
922: 2mA focus 2 (0-9999) :3560
A 70kV 1.9mA 100ms 0.2mAs
In this case, the filament heating (3560mA) for 2mA tube current is ok. The mAs product is 0.2mAs.
The generator decrease or increase the filament current automatically, if the measured mAs-product
differ from the ideal mAs-product. Press the M button after each exposure to approve the
filament current value.
Repeat the exposure, until the ideal mAs product will be measured.
5.4 Call up code No. 923 (5mA tube current ) Ideal mAs product 0.5mAs.
Do the same, as described under point 5.3
Call up code No. 924 (10mA tube current) Ideal mAs product 1mAs.
Do the same, as described under point 5.3
Call up code No. 925 (50mA tube current) Ideal mAs product 5mAs.
Do the same, as described under point 5.3
Call up code No. 926 (100mA tube current) Ideal mAs product 10mAs.
Do the same, as described under point 5.3
Call up code No. 927 (200mA tube current) Ideal mAs product 20mAs.
Do the same, as described under point 5.3
Call up code No. 928 (320mA tube current) Ideal mAs product 32mAs.
Do the same, as described under point 5.3
Call up code No. 929 (500mA tube current) Ideal mAs product 50mAs.
Call up code No. 930 (650mA tube current) Ideal mAs product 65mAs.
Do the same, as described under point 5.3
Call up code No. 931 (800mA tube current) Ideal mAs product 80mAs.
Do the same, as described under point 5.3
5.5 Call up code No. 938 (filament current for low kV for all tube current steps)
at 40kV
The generator calculate the filament current for lower kV automatically. With this parameter it is
possible to adjust the calculation for each kind of tube.
The generator calculate the filament current for higher kV automatically. With this parameter it is
possible to adjust the calculation for each kind of tube.
The procedure is the same as the procedure for the large focal spot
!! Caution !!
All Compliance tests must be done with tube correctly adjusted.
Place the radiation survey meter in the center of the X-ray beam at a distance of approximately 100 cm from
the X-ray source.
Set 125 kV, 75 mAs, 2-point mode. Record the unfiltered dose for each exposure in the proper column.
Make four more exposures and record the filtered dose. Calculate the average filtered dose.
Divide the average unfiltered does by 2. Verify that the average filtered dose is equal or greater than this
value. Answer the question on the Beam Quality Compliance Data Sheet.
Enter all required information at the top of the Compliance Data Sheets from the Test Parameter Assignment
Tables:
From Table 4-3, based on the last digit of the serial number, enter the prescribed test factors and limits on
the 3-Point Compliance Data Sheet.
From Table 4-4, based on the last digit of the serial number, enter the prescribed test factors and limits on
the 2-Point Compliance Data Sheet.
Set the parameters, entered on the 3-Point Compliance Data Sheet, on the control panel.
For each group of parameters on the Compliance Data Sheet make four (4) exposures, 1 to 3 minutes apart,
and record the measured data in the proper columns:
voltage [kVp] (variable vi )
current [mA] (variable ci )
time [ms] (variable t i )
Dose [mR] (variable xi )
Set the parameters, entered on the 2-Point Compliance Data Sheet, on the control panel.
For each group of parameters on the Compliance Data Sheet make four (4) exposures, 1 to 3 minutes
apart, and record the measured data in the proper columns:
voltage [kVp] (variable vi )
current time product [mAs] (variable CTP)
dose [mR] (variable xi )
quotient dose-CTP [mR/mAs] (variable y i )
Calculate the average values and compliance values for tube current, tube voltage, exposure time, time
current product according to the example.
Verify that all measured values on the Compliance Data Sheet are within the limits and answer the questions
on the Compliance Data Sheet.
Example:
From the 4 readings for each group of dose ( x1 , x 2 , x3 , x 4 ) entered on the Compliance Data Sheet,
calculate the average x according to .
