DANGER
While performing maintenance and service work
on the MOBILETT XP Digital with the covers removed,
it is possible to come into contact with components under voltage.
DANGER
Remove or install components only if:
- The system is switched off, and
- The capacitors are discharged, and
- The ESD guidelines are followed, and
- The batteries have been disconnected.
DANGER
Releasing radiation:
Checks and settings for which radiation must be released are marked with the
radiation warning symbol.
Radiation protection measures must be used.
DANGER
To avoid electrical shock from components under voltage, also be aware that:
The capacitors of the capacitor bank can be electrically charged even when the
system is switched off and the power cable is disconnected!
Individual capacitors of the capacitor bank may have been disconnected from the
discharging circuit, erroneously or as a result of failure, and can still be electrical‐
ly charged!
Disconnect the battery blocks in the XP Digital prior to maintenance and service
work!
n Switch the unit off before servicing or maintenance. Always disconnect the power
plug first.
n Make sure that the main switch is switched off.
n The capacitor bank discharges to < 40 V in approx. 15 minutes.
The safety covers can be removed after this period has elapsed.
n Prior to performing any work, it must be verified that areas with dangerous voltage
are voltage-free ( Fig. 2 Page 11).

1.6 Orientation
Fig. 4: Top view of system_01
These orientation indicators are used in all technical documents. Descriptions are
always from the “forward travel” user view. Always use this perspective when com‐
municating with third parties (e.g., USC/HSC).
1.8 Cleaning
n Always disconnect the MOBILETT from the power supply and switch it off before
cleaning or disinfecting it.
n Never use abrasive cleaners or cleaning agents with solvents (e.g. cleaning solutions,
alcohol or spot removers), since they may damage housing surfaces.
n Do not spray anything on or into the unit.
n Wipe off the MOBILETT with a cloth moistened in water or a diluted, lukewarm solu‐
tion of water and dishwashing liquid.
For more information, see the chapter on "Cleaning and disinfection” in the operating in‐
structions.
The MOBILETT XP Digital password list can be obtained by accessing the “Knowledgebase”
or from the Troubleshooting Guide SPR8-230.840.30...
Observe the nominal current of the fuses for the on-site power connections:
- 15A slow-blow (on-site) for 100-130V ± 10% or
Initial measurement
Perform the protective conductor test after completion of all work.
The measurement must be performed according to DIN VDE 0751, Part 1 (see ARTD Part
2). The protective conductor resistance for all touchable conductive parts must be meas‐
ured during the normal operating state of the system.
Make sure that control cables or data cables between the components of the system are
not mistaken for protective conductor connections.
During the measurement, move the power cable and additional connection cables with
an integrated protective conductor section by section to detect cable breaks.
The protective conductor resistance must not exceed 0.2 Ohms.
The values must be recorded as initial measurements, and the measuring points noted, in
the protective conductor resistance report.
The measuring procedure and the measuring device used (designation and serial num‐
ber) must also be documented.

(2) = Application part type B (if available)
(3) = Measurement setup (integrated into measuring device)
Repeat measurement
In the case of maintenance or repairs, perform the protective conductor resistance meas‐
urement again.
Document and assess the values determined in the repeat measurement.
The measurement must be performed according to DIN VDE 0751, Part 1 (see ARTD Part
2). The protective conductor resistance for all touchable conductive parts must be meas‐
ured during the normal operating state of the system.
Make sure that control cables or data cables between the components of the system are
not mistaken for protective conductor connections.
During the measurement, move the power cable and additional connection cables with
an integrated protective conductor section by section to detect cable breaks.
The protective conductor resistance must not exceed 0.2 Ohms.
The values determined in the repeat measurement must be recorded and assessed, and
the measuring points noted, in the protective conductor resistance report.
The measuring procedure and the measuring device used (designation and serial num‐
ber) must also be documented.
For evaluation purposes, the first measured value and the values documented dur‐
ing maintenance or safety checks must be compared to the measured values. A
sudden or unexpected increase in the measured values may indicate a defect in the
protective conductor connections (protective conductor or contacts) - even if the
limit value of 0.2 ohms is not exceeded.
WARNING
Electrical voltage!
Non-compliance can lead to severe injury and even death.
The leakage current measurement may be performed on systems of protec‐
tion class I only after the protective conductor test has been passed.
Initial measurement
Perform the leakage current measurement after completion of all work.
Perform the measurement according to DIN VDE 0751, Part 1 (see ARTD-002.731.17....),
and record the determined value as the first measured value.
Measurement of the leakage current according to the differential current method (meas‐
urement setup according to ( Fig. 7 Page 23)) must be given preference, since this
method is not dangerous to the person performing the measurement and other persons.
However, please note the minimum resolution of the leakage current measuring device
and any additional manufacturer information restricting the use of the measuring device.
Fig. 7: Measuring circuit for measuring the system leakage current according to the differential current
method in compliance with DIN VDE 0751-1/2001-10, Fig. C6 for protection class I.
(1) = System
(2) = Application part type B (if available)
(3) = Measurement setup (integrated into measuring device)
If the direct measurement of the leakage current is used (measurement setup according
to ( Fig. 8 Page 24)), the system must be insulated during the measurement and must
not be touched.

(3) = Measurement setup (integrated into measuring device)
WARNING
Electrical voltage!
Non-compliance can lead to severe injury and even death.
No housing parts of the system may be touched during direct measurement of
the leakage current (measurement setup according to ( Fig. 8 Page 24)).
Third-person access to the system must be prevented.
The system must be switched on during measurement. Measuring devices with automa‐
ted measuring sequences must therefore be set to manual measurement.
Enter the highest value as the first measured value in the leakage current report.
This value must not exceed the permissible leakage current values according to DIN VDE
0751-1/2001-10, Table F.1, line "leakage current for devices according to remarks 1 and
3", of 2.5 mA.
Measure and record the current line voltage. If the measured line voltage deviates from
the nominal voltage, correct the measured value to the value corresponding to a meas‐
urement at the nominal value of the line voltage. This must also be documented.
Document the measuring procedure (differential measurement or direct measurement)
and the measuring device used (designation and serial number).
Repeat measurement
When maintenance or repair work is performed on the primary power supply circuit (e.g.,
repairs to the power-on circuit or replacement of the line filter), the leakage current
measurement must be repeated.
The same measuring conditions as in the first measurement apply.
Record and assess the highest value determined in the repeat measurement in the exist‐
ing system leakage current report.
This value must not exceed the permissible leakage current values according to DIN VDE
0751-1/2001-10, Table F.1, line "leakage current for devices according to remarks 1 and
3", of 2.5 mA.
Measure and record the current line voltage. If the measured line voltage deviates from
the nominal voltage, correct the measured value to the value corresponding to a meas‐
urement at the nominal value of the line voltage. This must also be documented.
Document the measuring procedure (differential measurement or direct measurement)
and the measuring device used (designation and serial number).
For evaluation purposes, the first measured value and the values documented dur‐
ing maintenance or safety checks must be compared to the measured values. A
sudden or unexpected increase in the measured values may indicate that a fault
has occurred in the primary power supply circuit (damaged insulation, damage
from moisture, defective interference suppressor, etc.) - even if the limit value of
2.5 mA is not exceeded.
3.1 Unpacking
Fig. 9: Unpacking
If a shock sensor has been activated (colored red), the CXDI detector has to be replaced
before start-up.
n Check the shock sensors.
At least one of the 3 battery status LEDs must light up for the checks in exposure opera‐
tion ( 3/Fig. 12 Page 32).
Otherwise, charge the batteries until this operating state is reached (min. charging time:
2 hrs.).
If the unit has not been used for some time, error ERR13 may appear, indicating a high
leakage current at the capacitor bank.
n Disconnect the main power cord from the power supply and wind it completely
around the cable spool.
n Switch the unit on. Wait for the initialization process to finish (acoustic signal, KV/mAs
displays visible).
n Check the battery status.
n Switch to manual/analog operation (A/D button on control panel).
n Use the "± kV/± mAs" keys to select different values for KV and mAs.
P n
Check the following functions according to the operator manual:
- Motor drive
- Locking brake
Preparation
n Remove the grid (if available).
n Switch the MOBILETT XP Digital on and start the CXDI PC (digital operation)

Exposure data e.g.= exposure = 4; 70KV; 1.8 mAs, SID 150cm
If error messages ("Too much/little dose", "Collimator is used") are displayed
during calibration, the KV and mAs values have to be adjusted accordingly.
If the calibration is unsuccessful, check the calibration settings. The KV and mAs settings
may have to be adjusted.
If the calibration continues to be unsuccessful, start the detector self-test (see Trouble‐
shooting Guide SPR8-230.240.30...) or notify the Uptime Support Center.
n Check the detector centering. No other objects affecting the calibration may be loca‐
ted in the beam path.
n Click "START" to begin the calibration.

5.8 Options
5.8.1 DAP
P Measuring device for dose area product (Dose Area Product).
The DAP measuring device is used to measure the kerma area product (kerma = kinetic
energy released in matter) during an X-ray examination. It is primarily used to record the
radiation dose a patient is exposed to.
The DAP is calibrated at the factory:
n Press the test button on the DAP display, a value between 80-120 μGym2 (DAP resolu‐
tion 0.1 μGym 2) or in the case of a high-resolution chamber, 8-12 μGym2 (DAP reso‐
lution 0.01 μGym2) must be subsequently displayed.
If the display is incorrect, the measuring device must be calibrated. See the "Replace‐
ment of Parts" instructions, SPR8-230.841.30...).
X n
Check the function of the DAP display by releasing an exposure. The DAP display
shows a measurement value depending on the object in the beam path.
The following tests must be performed and recorded to satisfy the DHHS requirements:
n kV accuracy
n mAs accuracy
n Reproducibility
1. kV meter procedure:
- kV meter based on the filter comparison technique (e.g. PTW-Nomex). Use the cor‐
rection factor given in the kV meter operating instructions for non-invasive kV
measurements.
2. Oscilloscope method:
- Storage oscilloscope with a measuring accuracy of ± 2.5%
The inherent filtration (Al equivalent) of MOBILETT XP Digital is 3.9 mm Al (single tank
plus collimator).
An installed DAP measurement chamber increases the inherent filtration by 0.4 mm AL.
X n
Set the following exposure parameters and release an exposure after each setting:
* The measuring inaccuracy of the measuring instrument used must be subtracted from
the specified limit values.
P Record the measured values.
The mAs value can be calculated with the help of the oscilloscope display.
Surface “A” corresponds to the mAs value.
mAs = tube current x exposure time
40 5 4,7 - 5,3
81 2 1,9 - 2,1
133 10 9,5 - 10,5
* The measuring inaccuracy of the measuring instrument must be subtracted from the
specified limit values.
P Calculate and record the mAs values.
In the following test, 10 sequential exposures are taken within one hour.
The exposure parameters should be temporarily set to different values following each
measurement.
Procedure:
n After switching the system on, wait until its temperature has stabilized. The unit is
ready for these measurements after 15 minutes.
X n
Release the number of exposures with the specified exposure data:
- 85 kV, 1.0 mAs, 10 exposures.
n Measure the dose for each exposure.
n Reset the display prior to each new measurement.
Calculations: Coefficient of variation C
n For a series of 10 dose measurements, coefficient of variation C is determined using
the following formula:
