Safety and Regulatory Information
Electrical Hazards
Caution
• System covers should be removed or opened by qualified service personnel only. Internal circuits use high
voltage capable of causing serious injury.
• Switch off the Scanner before removing the system covers.
• Blown fuses may indicate problems with the electrical system. Have the system checked by qualified service
personnel before replacing fuses.
• Conductive fluids that seep into the active circuit components of the system may cause short circuits. Therefore,
do not place any liquid or food on any part of the system.
Caution
• Do not operate the equipment in the presence of explosive liquids, vapors or gases.
• Do not plug in or turn on the system if hazardous substances are detected in the environment. If these
substances are detected after the system has been turned on, do not attempt to turn off the unit or unplug it.
Evacuate and ventilate the area before turning off the system.
Overheating
Do not block the air circulation around the Scanner. Always maintain at least 6 inches (12 cm) clearance around the
Scanner to prevent overheating.
6H4869 9
Laser Safety Instructions
Laser Warning
• During nominal operation, the Scanner is closed and sealed with a protective cover, preventing direct or collateral
laser radiation. The Kodak Point-of-Care CR 360 is classified as a Class 1 laser product.
• During regular service mode the protective cover is removed by a qualified service engineer.
– An electrical interlocked hardware switch deactivates the power when the cover is removed. The service
engineer can reactivate the systems by using a full service operator’s Activation Key. Therefore there is no
accessible direct or collateral laser radiation during regular service mode.
• Service mode with activated laser: Once the protective housing is removed, an electrical interlocked hardware
switch deactivates the power to the laser unit.
– For service activities that require the activation of the laser unit, the service engineer can bypass the
electrical interlock by using a special jumper, supplied to field engineers only.
– Whenever the field engineer neutralizes the electrical interlock, he must wear protective safety glasses and
avoid direct exposure to the laser beam. The required laser safety eye wear must be intended for
HeliumNeon/PDT lasers, have an optical density of 4-5 wavelengths of 610-695 nm, and be marked as
having CE approval.
– When the service operation is finished, the service engineer must remove the special jumper. The laser unit
is Class 3B.
Laser Warning
When a service operation is taking place with the cover removed, follow the procedure in “Activating the Scanner
without the Cover if the Laser is not needed” on Page 20 and “Activating the Scanner without the Cover if the Laser
is needed” on Page 21. If the Laser must be activated during the service procedure, wear protective safety glasses
at all times.

System Description
Introduction
Throughout this manual the Kodak Point-of-Care CR 360 System will be referred to as Point-of-Care CR 360.
The Point-of-Care CR 360 System is designed for the reading of phosphor x-ray screens (CR) by medical
professionals.
The system consists of the Point-of-Care CR 360 Scanner and the software package that includes:
• The KODAK QC software that operates the Scanner.
• An image viewing and archiving software package that supports the DICOM 3.1 standard and was approved by
Carestream Health.
• The system features 8 x 10 in.; 10 x 12 in.; 14 x 17 in.; 9.5 x 9.5 in.; 11 x 14 in.; 14 x 14 in.; 14 x 33.; 24 x 30 cm;
15 x 30 cm digital image reading and viewing archive.
Note
Throughout this manual Front of the unit refers to the side where the cassettes are inserted. Right and Left are as
viewed when facing the front of the unit.
Operational Principles
The Point-of-Care CR 360 is a digital imaging system for image acquisition and processing of static projection
radiography that uses a Phosphor Screen with energy storage capability as an x-ray image receptor.
After exposure, a laser beam, which stimulates luminescence proportional to the local x-ray exposure, reads the
screen. The luminescence signal is digitized. The data is then subjected to digital image processing.
The Point-of-Care CR 360 Scanner enables the user to read a screen quickly, and erase it to be ready for the next
scan. The Scanner is compact and easy to use.
Using the Point-of-Care CR 360 System enables medical professionals to “go digital” without changing their work
practices or x-ray equipment.

Calibrations
Section 4: Calibrations
Introduction
• There are four parameters that need to be calibrated in the PoC CR 360. The unit is calibrated at the factory
before it is shipped. Calibration is necessary after replacing or re-installing certain components, as detailed in the
replacement procedures themselves.
• A red X next to a de-activated date box indicates that the system is not calibrated. (In place of the green check-
mark)
• The green check-mark next to the date box indicates that the system is calibrated,
• The date indicates the date that the calibration took place.
• If a calibration procedure does not succeed, repeat the procedure.
Equipment Required
• Calibrated Dosimeter
– Dose Range from <0.1 mR to >10 mR.
– Precision 5%.
• Rectangular plates for X-ray filtration.
– 0.5 mm Copper
– 1.0 mm Aluminum
• Lead sheet or lead apron (use the lead apron throughout the test to avoid backscatter)
• Calibration Results Report See “Calibration Results Report” on Page 155.
6H4869 91
Origin Calibration
The Origin calibration determines the starting point of a scanning procedure (x,y coordinates).
Origin calibration must be performed after replacing the Linear Slide, Optical Head or the Linear Limit (Origin)
sensors.
[1] Make a 10 mR exposure of 14 x 17 in. flat field.
(a) Settings: 80 kVp, 40 mAs, SID=200
(b) Filters: 0.5 mm Copper and 1.0 mm Aluminim on the tube exit.
(c) Adjust the SID to measure exposure of 10 mR on screen.
92 6H4869
Calibrations
Offset Calibration
The Offset Calibration can be performed only if the Origin parameter is calibrated.
The Offset Calibration is required to set the zero level required to convert output signals from Analog to Digital
signals. This auto zero process determines the noise level before any image acquisition and provides the appropriate
offset.
[1] In the Setup tab, check 16-bit Image.
[2] In the Calibration tab, check Offset and click [Start].
[3] A message appears asking you to insert a 14” x 17” cassette.
6H4869 93
Electronic Gain Calibration
Purpose
The Gain Calibration can be performed only if the Origin and Offset parameters are calibrated.
The Gain Calibration process’s purpose is to set the internal electronic gain. The electronic gain is tuned using 10mR
exposure to get target code value of 48,000 (16,000 counts). In log-space it is equivalent to APV of 3,000. The PMT
high-voltage is kept at fixed value and electronic gain is tuned slightly in the nominal value proximity. In this test a
12-bit raw image should be inspected (AR folder image).
Check E-Gain
[2] Make a 10 mR exposure of 14 x 17 in. flat field according to the values presented in the screen message that
appears.
(a) Settings: 80 kVp, 40 mAs, SID=200
(b) Filters: 0.5 mm Copper and 1.0 mm Aluminim on the tube exit.
(c) Adjust the SID to measure exposure of 10 mR (±0.2 mR) on screen.
Click [OK] to continue or [Cancel] to stop the process and return to the main window.
[3] Wait five minutes, then insert the cassette into the scanner and click [OK]; the screen scanning begins.
[4] When the scanning procedure is complete, the cassette is ejected and a screen message appears with the
calibration results. Verify that Set E-Gain is marked witha green check sign.
Important
Before you continue to the next step, manually erase the cassette.
94 6H4869
Calibrations
OCPC Calibration
Purpose
Every optical collector has its own unique profile (signature) along the scan line. During this process an algorithm is
applied to compensate for the collector profile and to flatten the flat field.
In this test, 12 bit raw image should be inspected (AR folder image).
Procedure
[1] In the Calibration tab, check 14 x 17 HS, and click [Start].
Check 14 x 17 HS
[2] Make a 10 mR exposure of 14 x 17 in. cassette according to the values presented in the screen message that
appears.
(a) Settings: 80 kVp, 40 mAs, SID=200
(b) Filters: 0.5 mm Copper and 1.0 mm Aluminim on the tube exit.
(c) Adjust the SID to measure exposure of 10 mR (±0.2 mR) on screen.
Click [OK] to continue or [Cancel] to stop the process and return to the main window.
[3] Insert the cassette into the scanner and click [OK]; the screen scanning begins.
[4] When the scanning procedure is completed, the cassette is ejected and a screen message appears:
6H4869 95
[7] Record the results in the Calibration Report.
Note
When the system is ready for clinical use, verify that the 16-bit option in the Setup tab is un-checked.
96 6H4869
Adjustments
Section 5: Adjustments
The adjustment procedure is comprised of two sub-procedures which are intended to attain the correct functioning
of the solenoid during its action:
• Electrical test (coil resistance) of the solenoid connector terminals. If this test fails, replace the solenoid on the
key assembly. (See “Autoloop Solenoid Replacement” on Page 78). If the test succeeds, proceed to the solenoid
adjustment procedure.
• Solenoid adjustment procedure.
Required Equipment
Digital Voltmeter
2.5 mm Allen wrench
Adjustment Procedure
Electrical Test
[1] Remove the scanner cover in order to reach the auto-loop connectors.
[2] Using the DVM check the solenoid resistance on J212. The resistance value between the terminals should be
5.8 - 5.9 ±10% ohm.
Resistance measuring points on Auto-loop assembly
6H4869 97
If the resistance values are incorrect, replace the solenoid.
If the values are correct and the solenoid is still not operating, perform the following check:
[3] Go to Technician>Settings>Diagnostics mode and measure the voltage peak during operation. The voltage
should peak to 24 VDC for approximately 1.5 seconds.
Auto-loop assembly
retaining screws
[2] Push the solenoid until the fork touches the plastic, then secure the screws.
Adjust the solenoid position
[3] Move the fork to see that the sensor flag moves freely.
[4] Check that when the solenoid is in front position the sensor flag “closes” the sensor.

Using SC Shell Application
Introduction
The SC Shell application is an external application used for control, diagnosis and update of the IMCS board.
There are two ways to connect to the SC Shell application:
1. Virtual Serial Port (VSP) - a built-in option in the Kodak QC Diagnostic screen. This option uses the USB
connection from the host computer to the scanner and requires USB driver installation.
2. Direct RS232 to RJ45 cable connected from a host PC to the RJ45 port on the IMCS board. This connection
reqires an external cable.
Establishing communication between the host computer and the IMCS board
VSP Option
[1] While the scanner is connected to the PC and turned on, go to Kodak QC setup>Diagnostic tab>Controller
sub-tab.
[2] Click on the VSP to IMCS board button and wait for the USB driver installation to begin.
Note
Do not search for the driver on the internet.
[3] Choose [Specify location option] on the driver installation screen and locate the driver in Kodak QC CD:/VSP
Driver folder.
[4] You may receive a message saying that the driver is not registered with Microsoft; if so, select [Continue
anyway] to complete the driver installation.
[5] Go to Device Manager and look in the ports (Com and LPT) for the new serial communication COM number.
In the COM properties page you should see KEC in the Manufacturer section.
