1.General Information

Introduction
This section contains a general overview and physical description of the ACCUVIX Ultrasound System. System
application, feature, and regulatory information are summarized.

System Overview
The ACCUVIX system (Figure 1-1) is a general-purpose, mobile, software-controlled, diagnostic ultrasound system with
spectral Doppler, color Doppler and volume 3D. The ACCUVIX system uses a Pentium IV personal computer (PC)
platform with a Windows 2000 Professional operating system and digital beamforming to provide high-resolution,
high penetration ultrasound imaging.
The ACCUVIX system uses linear array, convex array, phased array, static and, volume probes to perform all major
clinical applications. The standard operating modes are 2D/gray-scale, M-mode, color M-mode, color Doppler, Color
Power Angio (CPA) imaging, pulsed wave (PW) Doppler, steered continuous-wave (CW) Doppler, static CW Doppler,
Tissue Harmonic Imaging, Pulse Inversion Harmonic Imaging and tri-plex mode simultaneity. Volume 3D and Live 3D
imaging mode are optional. The system can store up to 50,000 images (depending on image file size) and recall them.
Data can be exported to a removable disk and transferred to the PC environment in either JPEG or BMP formats.
High density removable media (MO, CDROM) capability is standard, and the system supports compatible ink-jet printers.

4.Theory of Operation

Introduction
This section provides a functional description of the ACCUVIX Ultrasound System.

System Architecture
The ACCUVIX system architecture is made up of six fundamental functional elements:

-. Physical assemblies comprising the mobile cart and system components


-. Power functions
-. Control functions
-. Ultrasound signal generation and echo acquisition functions
-. Signal and image data processing and analysis functions
-. Visual and audio presentation functions

The location and identification of the physical parts of the system are described in the General Information, Cabling,
Configuration, and Parts sections of this document. The functional nature of each is described in the following
paragraphs.
System power development and distribution is provided by the installation site source voltage, the system power
Supply, the backplane power bus, and power interconnect cables (see “Operating Power” on page 41).
The control, acquisition, processing, and presentation elements of the system architecture are supported by a
Pentium IV processor computer platform that provides a real-time operating system with hardware and software
interfaces to the disk drives, control panel, and peripherals. This platform is combined with ultrasound electronics,
which include a digital beamformer, and ultrasound software.
ACCUVIX XQ FIELD SERVICE MANUAL 35 PAGE

The ACCUVIX system ultrasound engine is physically and functionally made up of the Industrial PC Motherboard
(PC card), four digital Beamformer (BF0-BF3) PCBs, Continuous Wave Doppler Processor (CW) PCB, Digital
Signal Processors (DSP) PCB, Digital Scan Converter (DSC) PCB, and Video Manager (VM) PCB.
Most of the ultra-sound signal processing, image processing, analysis, and display functions are performed by
software using the native processing power of the computer (Industrial PC Motherboard).

Operating System

The full-service, real-time Windows 2000 operating system provides an integrated range of resources:

drivers and handlers for storage, video, serial and parallel ports, and support of file system services and graphical user
interfaces. The operating system, based on Pentium processor, is resident on the hard drive. The system software
Performs these tasks:

-. Processes requests from the control panel


-. Sets up beamforming parameters
-. Processes acquired ultrasound echoes into digital visual representations for conversion into analog signals
-. Performs measurements and calculations on acquired data
-. Stores acquired data (such as images and user-entered data) for subsequent retrieval
-. Performs all necessary functions to coordinate software tasks
ACCUVIX XQ FIELD SERVICE MANUAL 36 PAGE

Functional Description

The ACCUVIX system produces 2D, M-mode, color Doppler, color power angio, spectral Doppler, and 3D
ultrasound images using transducers (probes), digital beamforming, and Doppler processing.
The central processing unit of the system is the Industrial PC Motherboard. The ultrasound components comprise
digital beamformer technology that combines with the operating system to support the system functions.
The ACCUVIX system stores the ultrasound images and patient data on the hard drive and can copy that data to
the removable media, such as magneto-optical (MO) disks and CD-R/W disks for off-line review.
The system can send the images to a black-and-white printer, color printer, or to a VCR. It also generates reports
that can be printed.
After operating power is applied, the major functional elements combine to produce ultra-sound images. The user
interface allows system control and viewing of the results.
Figure 4-1 is a simplified block diagram of the ACCUVIX system, showing the relationship between those major
functional elements and indicating the primary functional tasks performed by each. The diagram organizes the
functional elements as they exist on the system hardware.
The overall system functional flow is power development and distribution, analog signal processing, beamforming,
continuous-wave and color Doppler processing, scan conversion, digital signal processing, and video and audio
presentation. Figure 4-17 is a diagram of the system 2D, M-mode, Doppler, and color data paths.

Probe Select Assembly (PSA)

Figure 4-3 is a simple block diagram of the Probe Select Assembly, which provides the function of a probe select
module. The PSA is the system interface for four probes and the CW pencil probe (Section 1, “General Information”
and Section 15, “probes”).
It contains circuits for probe detection and identification, engaging the appropriate number of relays to accommodate
transmitting and receiving pulses and echoes. The PSA has three 260-pin Cannon connectors and one coax-pin Lemo
connector. Figure 4-4 shows the generic pin grid for the Cannon connector and Figure 4-5 the pin layout for the Lemo
connector.
The PSA receives high-voltage pulse signals from the Beamformer PCBs (“Beamformer (BF0-BF3) and switches them
through analog relays as inputs to the active probe to generate the ultrasound signal. The returning echoes are passed
through these relays and back to the Beamformer PCBs for processing. Probe ID, probe select, and motor drive/control
data is exchanged with the Continuous Wave Doppler Processor (CW) PCB.

Beamformer (BF0-BF3)

Figure 4-6 is a functional diagram of the Beamformer module, which is made up of four identical Beamformer PCBs.
The Beamformer PCBs are responsible for generating and transmitting pulses to the probe elements. When the
returning echoes come back into the system, they are sent in analog form to the Beamformer PCBs for processing,
where the returning echoes are amplified using time gain compensation (TGC), and are filtered prior to being
converted into digital data. Once the data is digitized, it is sent to specialized circuits that perform the beamforming.
The signal processing functions of digital beamforming that determine the real image quality of the system include
dynamic apodization, multiplication, coefficient loading, variable sample clock generation, summation of the
channels within each board, and dynamic gain control.

Digital Signal Processors (DSP)

Figure 4-10 is a simple block diagram of the DSP PCB. The RF data from the Beam-former PCBs is sent to the mid
processor via the by-pass filter. While the RF data is going through the process of filtering and demodulation, it makes
2D-mode output and in-phase/quadrature-phase (I/Q) data. After adjusting the 2D-mode output gain, 2D-mode is output
to the Digital Scan Converter (DSC) PCB.
I/Q data from the CW PCB is received and put through signal clutter filtering, spectral Doppler, and audio processing.
Spectral Doppler is sent to the DSC PCB and audio Doppler is sent to the Video Manager (VM) PCB.
I/Q data from the mid processor is further processed for Color Doppler image data. The Color Doppler processor
provides signal clutter filtering and velocity estimation. The Post DSP then receives this Doppler and clutter data and
carries out the process of flash artifact rejection, spatial filtering, and horizontal line interpolation before outputting the
color Doppler image data to the DSC PCB

Digital Scan Converter (DSC)

Figure 4-11 is a functional diagram of the DSC PCB. Scan conversion is the process for-mapping echo information into
frame memory for displaying on the monitor. The DSC receives ECG data processed by the ECG PCB and grayscale
(2D, M, D) data and color data is received from the DSP for smoothing, edge enhancement, frame averaging, and line
interpolation processing. The DSC maps data to frame memory according to an algorithm and sends image data to the
“Video Manager (VM)”.

Backplane

The Backplane (Motherboard) is the physical and functional “backbone” of the ultrasound engine. It is wired to the power
supply from which it receives DC operating voltages (Table 4-1) to distribute to the system components via a power bus
and power cabling. The Backplane also provides control and signal interconnection between the system components via
data, computer, and control buses (Figure 4-1) and signal cabling. The Beamformer (BF0-BF3), Continuous Wave
Doppler Processor (CW), Digital Signal Processors (DSP), Digital Scan Converter (DSC), Video Manager (VM),
Figure 4-17 is a diagram of the system 2D, M-mode, Doppler, and color data paths. And Input/Output Panel PCBs are all
plugged into connectors on the Backplane (Figure 14-1 and Figure 14-3).

5.Installation

Introduction

This section contains pre-installation, installation, and de-installation information for the ACCUVIX system. On-site
installation usually consists of uncrating, unpacking, installing the monitor and accessories, checking connections,
and powering up the system for a functional check. De-installation consists of disconnecting the probes, removing the
monitor and correctly packing the system components for shipment. Read this section completely, before starting the
installation.

Pre-Installation Evaluation
Before the system is delivered, Medison recommends that you perform the following pre-installation evaluations.

Checking Physical Access for Delivery, Installation, and Operation

To check that the site is prepared for system installation:

1. With the customer, evaluate site access for delivery. Consider the availability of a loading dock, elevators, ramps,
and the width of passageways and doors.
2. Verify that there is adequate space available for system uncrating and installation.
3. At each location where the system will be operated, verify that there is enough space for the system and any external
peripherals.
4. Check adjacent rooms for activity and types of equipment that might negatively affect the Medison Ultrasound system.

™ NOTE Avoid placing the system in environments for operation or storage where the equipment is exposed to water
vapor, direct sunlight, high humidity, salty atmosphere, and chemicals or gas.
ACCUVIX XQ FIELD SERVICE MANUAL 81 PAGE

Checking the Operating Environment

Advise the appropriate facility representative of system environmental operating requirements, including proper
ventilation. If the rooms where the system will be used seem excessively hot or humid to you, ask the facility
representative to take measurements. If they are not within system environmental operating specifications, ask the
facility representative to make the appropriate corrections.

Wiring Requirements

Medison recommends that the electrical feeds to the system each be a dedicated line (no other equipment on the
same line) with a third-wire ground. The ground wire shall be an insulated, isolated solid copper conductor bonded to
the ground bus of the service panel.
The outlet shall be a Hospital Grade Receptacle or an Isolated Ground Receptacle. Proper installation shall reflect
compliance with the national electrical code.
ACCUVIX XQ FIELD SERVICE MANUAL 82 PAGE

Checking the Electrical Power Source

WARNING

For safety and liability reasons, do not disassemble any power outlet or open any electrical panel. Have the facility
representative confirm wiring compliance with the criteria specified below.

To verify a dedicated AC line:

1. Explain to the facilities representative that the system requires a dedicated AC line meeting the electrical power
requirements identified in Section 2, “Specification”.
2. Verify that the outlet to be used is a dedicated line:
Have the facility representative open the circuit breaker corresponding to the AC line for the system.
Confirm that power is still applied to all other outlets and hard-wired devices in the immediate area and that power
is removed only from the dedicated outlet.
3. Verify the proper wiring of the outlet. Also test for the presence of a ground and if equipped to do so,try to verify
that neutral and ground are not reversed.
4. Review with the facility representative the current draw of the system and the voltage range it requires.It is the
responsibility of the facility representative to determine the proper size of the wire based upon the length of the
feed.
5. Measure the hot/neutral, hot/ground, and neutral/ground voltages with a comparable load (for example, another
ultrasound system) on the line.
6. Determine line loss:
Have the facility representative measure the voltage at the primary of the line's circuit breaker in the distribution
sub-panel. If a facility representative is not available go to step c.
ACCUVIX XQ FIELD SERVICE MANUAL 83 PAGE

Measure the voltage at the wall outlet. Calculate the percentage of voltage loss across the line using this formula:

Percent line loss = [(A-B)/A] x 100


where A is the voltage at the circuit breaker with the system on, and B is the voltage at the wall outlet with the
system on. If a facility representative is not available, measure the voltage at the outlet with the load on and then
with the load off.

Calculate the percentage of voltage loss across the line using this formula:

Percent line loss = [(A-B)/A] x 100


where A is the voltage at the wall outlet with the system off, and B is the voltage at the wall outlet with the
system on.
7. If you are equipped and trained to do so, measure the power line noise. Repeat with a load applied,
for example, another ultrasound system.
8. Record your power quality observations and measurements.
9. Affix a Power Line Data sticker to the most qualified outlet in each of the primary operating areas. Add the circuit
breaker number and location.
ACCUVIX XQ FIELD SERVICE MANUAL 84 PAGE

Checking for Electrostatic Discharge


During system operation and maintenance, electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause system lock-ups, equipment
reliability problems, and component failures.

CAUTION
With system covers or shields removed, ESD will always cause component damage.
ESD damage is cumulative and may not be apparent at first, as indicated by a hard failure, but can cause degraded
performance. Therefore, always use proper ESD handling procedures.

ESD results from a difference in electrical potential equalizing. ESD is more prevalent in low humidity and when there is
friction against carpeting, linen, and clothing. Avoid placing the system directly under or close to HVAC vents. While
special equipment is required to measure ESD levels, you can determine the presence of ESD as follows:

1. Check for the presence of ESD by walking around where the system will be installed and touching grounded surfaces.
note if you experience static discharges in the area.
2. Ask the operators if they have experienced static discharges in the work area.
3. If ESD is evident, suggest possible ESD minimizing devices and their usage, for example, static mats, humidifiers,
and sprays.

System Installation
The following paragraphs contain system installation procedures. After you have completed the physical system
installation and initial setup, verify that the system operates correctly using tests from Section 7, “Performance Tests”.
Read this section completely, before starting system installation.
ACCUVIX XQ FIELD SERVICE MANUAL 85 PAGE

7.Performance Test

Introduction

This section contains performance tests based on the factory acceptance testing Medison Ultrasound performs when
conducting ACCUVIX functional audit. Use these tests to verify that a system is operating and performing correctly.
Some or all of these tests should be performed as necessary, following installation, upgrade, preventive maintenance,
or repair.
The procedures in this section are intended only for qualified technicians who have been trained by Medison to maintain
ACCUVIX systems.
A list of tests is provided at the end of this section for use as a performance test checklist and a record of system
performance (see “Performance Test Checklist” on page 148).
Dated copies can serve as confirmation of proper system operation. If any of the tests fail, troubleshoot and repair the
system and then restart and complete the performance testing.

Preparations

The tests in this section are organized to follow a logical progression through each of the major system operating
functions. Medison recommends that you perform the tests in the sequence given. The following paragraphs describe
considerations and actions to take before performing the tests.
ACCUVIX XQ FIELD SERVICE MANUAL 123 PAGE

Warnings and Cautions


Review “Section 3, “Safety”, before continuing. Also heed all additional warnings and cautions contained in this section.

WARNINGS
-. Use extreme caution if applying power to the system while protective covers are removed. Dangerous voltages are
present. Only a qualified Medison customer service representative should work on internal system components.
-. Do not wear ESD wrist straps grounded to the cart when working inside a system with its power turned on.

Initial Setup
Initial setup consists of applying system power and confirming a successful software initialization. You should also verify
that the system configuration is consistent with the Customer Order Acknowledgement (COA).
These tests rely on the assumption that the site power is in compliance with the pre-installation criteria described in
Section 5, “Installation”.
Check the equipment for abnormalities or conditions that do not meet Medison standards.

Initialization and Monitor Tests


1. If not already done, plug the system power cord into a dedicated hospital grade outlet, rated for at least 15 Amperes.
2. Load printer paper and video cassette as required.
3. Connect two appropriate probes to the probe connectors.
4. Turn on the system power (Figure 7-1). Verify that all installed internal OEM peripheral “power on” indicators light.
5. After the system performs its initialization and self- test routine (about one minute), confirm that a 2D startup display
appears on the screen (Figure 7-2).
ACCUVIX XQ FIELD SERVICE MANUAL 124 PAGE

6. Verify that the system has the correct software level by reading the software version displayed on the screen
during boot- up or you can check it in system setups.
7. Select a probe and verify that the 2D image is updating.
8. On the monitor, confirm the following (if the monitor has any alignment or color problems, perform the monitor
adjustments described in Section 8, “Adjustments”):

-. Adjustment of the monitor brightness and contrast controls from the minimum to maximum results in no
distortion (blooming) on the display.
-. Display is centered on the screen, with good vertical and horizontal resolution (linearity).
-. There is no tearing or bedding at the corners.

Functional Tests

Use the following procedures to examine system functionality. If system testing reveals any problems, troubleshoot,
repair, and retest the system. Throughout performance testing, continue to verify the following general observations:

-. The image is correctly placed on the video display.


-. The indicators and backlighting associated with the controls on the control panel indicate correctly.
-. Toggle switches, slides, trackball, and other moveable controls operate smoothly and efficiently.

If not already done, perform the actions described in “Initial Setup”.

If the system diagnostics are enabled, run the All Information diagnostic to verify system information and to check
that the primary PCBs pass their functional tests (see “Running the System Diagnostics” on page 165).

User Interface Tests

Operate each of the user interface controls to verify that the system user interface is performing correctly. Check the
functions of the control panel, on-screen soft controls, and footswitch. A majority of this testing can be accomplished
while performing the other tests in this section. Verify that the system responds correctly to each control and that the
LEDs light for all controls that have LEDs. If necessary, look up the control function definition in the “Glossary” section
of the ACCUVIX System Reference Manual or press ? for the system online help and search for the control
description you need.

10.Troubleshooting

Introduction

The troubleshooting information provided in this section will assist you in determining if a system is failing and will help
you isolate the cause if it is.

Start Here
1. Prior to taking any action, it is important that you review all relevant warnings, cautions, and procedures.
2. If possible, make a hardcopy print of the system display that shows the first indication of the failure. Take hardcopy
prints of any system displays that reveal the failure as soon as possible to ensure this type of data is not lost.
Relevant data is often lost when the system is rebooted.
3. Try to determine if the symptoms indicate an operating/ procedural error or a system failure, and if a system failure,
whether it is an operating system or an ultrasound problem.
4. Consider the situation: When was the last time the system was working correctly and what, if any, influencing
circumstances have occurred since. Check the system configuration.
5. Check for obvious causes and solutions: Voltage at electrical outlets, “tripped” circuit breakers, blown fuses,
disconnected or damaged wires, etc.
6. If the system diagnostics are enabled, run them to see if the tests detect and report any failures (see “Running the
System Diagnostics”).
7. Conduct tests from Section 6, “Performance Tests”, as required to determine if the system is failing or to attempt to
duplicate the failure.
8. Consider the value against the difficulties of swapping suspect components with good ones. Do not cause additional
problems or confuse your search. Never swap parts if a known good item might be damaged.
ACCUVIX XQ FIELD SERVICE MANUAL 100 PAGE

9. Once the fault has been identified, perform the authorized corrective action needed to repair the failure and conduct
the tests necessary to ensure the system meets an optimum level of performance.

Warnings and Cautions

Review Section 3, “Safety”, before continuing. Also follow all additional warnings and cautions contained in this section.

WARNINGS

• Dangerous voltages are present when protective covers are removed. Use extreme caution.
• Do not wear ESD wrist straps grounded to the cart when working inside a system with its power turned on.
• Do not replace components with power connected. Under certain conditions, dangerous voltages may exist with power
disconnected. Always disconnect power and allow circuits to discharge before touching any components.
• To protect against fire hazard, only use replacement fuses of the same type and rating as the original fuses.

CAUTIONS

Always turn power off and wait at least 30 seconds before removing or installing any PCB, module or component.
• Always use correct ESD procedures. Do not handle PCBs without proper ESD protection. Damage to components will
result from improper handling.

Checking for EMI and RFI

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI) can conceivably cause image noise or
monitor distortion if the system EMI shielding has been compromised. EMI and RFI can be generated by a variety of
electrical devices. The interference can be transmitted over power lines or radiated through the air.
-. An operating AM radio tuned between stations around 1,600 Hz can be used as an EMI/ RFI source tester. The
interference would be noticeable as audible static noise on the radio while walking it around the room. Sometimes
EMI/ RFI sources are not constant, but are temporary or surge situations that may only occur at certain times.
-. Considering and locating the source/ cause is important, but regardless of the source, since the system is shielded
against EMI and RFI, troubleshoot the system to determined if the EMI/ RFI shielding has been compromised.
One place to start is to verify that all the system panels are appropriately secured with all their factory- approved
screws.

DICOM Trouble-shooting

Three key elements in the network environment must be configured properly for DICOM communications to work:
-. Physical data path integrity; the hardware responsible for data transmission (cabling, transceivers, hubs, routers,
and switches) must be correct and functional.
-. Correct TCP/ IP configuration: The IP addressing and subnet masking for ACCUVIX system and all active devices
in the host table, including the gateway address, must be correct.
-. Correct DICOM configuration: The application entity titles and port number must be correct.

If a customer's DICOM connection quits working, it is usually because something was changed in the network
environment. Use these steps to help isolate the problem:
ACCUVIX XQ FIELD SERVICE MANUAL 161 PAGE

™ NOTE If the DICOM connection worked before, it is typical that either the local information systems department has
changed something in the IP environment (such as rerouting data without informing those affected) or there is a
hardware failure in the physical data path (such as a bad data cable).

1. Verify that the host table data and network configuration is still correct and that the Network Interface port is
enabled on the ACCUVIX. Refer to the External Codonics NP- 1660 Printer Field Installation Instructions
(P/ N 8055-1767- 02 and up).
2. Check if there is an obvious problem with the physical data path, such as a broken or disconnected cable. If you
cannot do it on your own, contact the appropriate customer site information or systems administration person to
verify the physical data path integrity.
3. If the physical data path is good, verify the data path to the hub, network, or the printer, as applies:
-. On the ACCUVIX system, open a Command Prompt and type in the command “ping hostname”
(where “hostname” is the name of the device, as listed in the system host table, with which the system is trying to
communicate).
-. Press Enter. If the path is complete, there will be a response that reads:
Reply from xxx. xxx. xxx. xxx: bytes= 32 time< 10ms TTL= 128
Reply from xxx. xxx. xxx. xxx: bytes= 32 time< 10ms TTL= 128
Reply from xxx. xxx. xxx. xxx: bytes= 32 time< 10ms TTL= 128
Reply from xxx. xxx. xxx. xxx: bytes= 32 time< 10ms TTL= 128

4. If the previous steps have not met with success, verify that the device in question is online and operational.
5. If there is no problem with the TCP/ IP communication, verify the IP address, application entity title, port number
and other information of host device.
6. If you have not resolved the issue at this point or if any of the previous steps yielded unexpected results, call the
Medison Bothell- based Connectivity Group at 1- 800- 874- 3499 extension 3044.
ACCUVIX XQ FIELD SERVICE MANUAL 162 PAGE

To test the system IP configuration:

1. Enter the administrative mode.


2. Click Start, point to Programs , point to Accessories , and then click Command Prompt (Figure 10- 16)
to open a Command Prompt window (Figure 10-17).
3. To obtain the IP configuration data, type “ipconfig” and press Enter . The IP information will appear as shown
in the Figure 10-17 example. If the ipconfig command shows no information, verify that the TCP/ IP data for this
system was properly configured (To configure the ACCUVIX system for DICOM operations).
4. In the Command Prompt window, ping the IP address of the destination devices and observe the reply as
shown in the Figure 10-17 example. If the ping command fails:

-. Verify that the ultrasound system was restarted after TCP/ IP was installed and configured.
-. Verify that the default gateway IP address is correct and that the gateway (router) is operational.
-. Verify that the remote host IP address is correct, that the remote host is operational, and that all the gate
ways (routers) between this computer and the remote host are operational.
-. Verify that the DNS server IP address is correct, that the DNS server is operational, and that all the gateways
(routers) between this computer and the DNS server are operational.

11.Disassembly and Re-Assembly Notes


Introduction
With the exceptions noted here, any disassembly required for the removal and installation of field replaceable parts, as
necessary to troubleshoot the system and implement a repair, can be discerned from the illustrations in Section 14,
“Configuration”, and Section 15, “Parts”.

Warnings and Cautions


Review Section 3, “Safety” before any disassembly. Also, heed all additional warnings and cautions contained in this
section.

WARNINGS

Dangerous voltages are present when protective covers are removed. Use extreme caution. Any action taken
inside the system must be made by a qualified Medison Ultrasound customer service representative.
Do not wear ESD wrist straps grounded to the cart when working inside a system with its power turned on.
Do not replace components with power applied. Under certain conditions, dangerous voltages may exist with power
disconnected.

CAUTIONS

Always use correct ESD procedures. ESD damage is cumulative and may not be noticeable at first. ESD symptoms
may be first exhibited as a slight degradation of performance or image quality.
Always turn power off and wait at least 30 seconds before removing or installing any PCB, module, or component.
ACCUVIX XQ FIELD SERVICE MANUAL 169 PAGE

System Panel Removal and Replacement

When removing the rubber plugs (Figure 15- 5, Figure 15- 16, Figure 15- 17) for panel screw access, it is important to
return each plug to the location and position from which it was removed. The plugs are not identical. It is suggested to
use a ballpoint pen to mark the bottom of each plug in some way that will help you remember where it goes when
completing reassembly of the system.

Front End/PSA Removal and Replacement


When removing/ reassembling the front end/ Probe selector assembly:

-. It is only necessary to remove the 8 outer edge screws. Note that there are different length screws. It is important
to return the each screw to its correct location when reassembling.
-. Mark the BF PCBs alignment guide/ spacer (Figure 15-21) so that when you reassemble the front end/ Probe
selector assembly, the BF PCBs guide/ spacer is installed correctly (the beveled edge of the slots that the BF PCB
edge connectors pass through face into the system/ card cage, see Figure 11-1).
-. Use the guide pins to help align the PSA when reassembling.
-. Start all mounting screws before tightening and then tighten, but don’t over- tighten, the screws in an alternating
pattern.

Primary Card Cage PCBs Removal and Replacement

Helpful notes for the removal and installation of the front card cage PCBs (Figure 14-3, Figure 15-21) follow:

Access
Only the system front panel (Figure 15-21) needs to be removed for the removal and installation of all card cage PCBs
except the Motor Controller.
ACCUVIX XQ FIELD SERVICE MANUAL 170 PAGE

BF0 through BF3


-. When removing the beamformer PCBs, ALWAYS remove them in following sequence: BF3, BF2, BF1, BF0.
-. When installing the beamformer PCBs, ALWAYS install them in the following sequence: BF0, BF1, BF2, and BF3.

CW
You need to remove all of the beamformer PCBs before removing the CW PCB for B/D’s protection.

Motor Controller
All but the right side (facing system) panel needs to be removed.

Control Panel Removal and Replacement


The control panel top (Figure 15-10) is removed by removing 8 screws from the bottom (Figure 15-11).

Power Supply Removal and Replacement


NOTE LEDs on rear of power supply indicate presence of voltage (+ tolerance not yet known), which can only be seen
with rear panel removed (LED legend is there also).

It is highly recommended to remove the left side (facing the front of the system) cover panel as well as the rear cover
panel when R/Ring the power supply.

Hub Cap Removal and Replacement


The hub caps (Figure 15-32) are not “press fit” only, they are attached with three screws from the backside of the
wheel. Do not try to pry them off without removing the screws first.
