Order replacement CPU board 46−264974G5 or later if not already present. Older firmware(before version 46−329187G1/46−329188G1) does not limit the time of the charge cycle.This can cause excessive overheating while charging if a battery is failed.

2-2-1 Set for French or English Operator Messages

Selection of French or English operator messages is determined by position 6 of DIP switchS75 on the AMX Controller (CPU) Board.

1. Look at the operator messages displayed to determine if they are in the desired lan-guage.

2. To change the language of the operator messages, set Position 6 of DIP switch S75on the CPU Board in accordance with Illustrations 2 and 3.

Note: The other positions of S75 are shown for reference, but should not require chang-ing.

SECTION 6LOAD DEFAULTS AND RECALIBRATE SYSTEM

Do the following sections, in sequence indicated below, from AMX−4 Calibration Di-rection.

Note: To save time, you should install high voltage bleeder and set up oscilloscope forproper triggering before you enter calibration mode.

Observe proper radiation safety when making x−ray exposures!

1. Section 3−6: “Load Default Values”

Note: Section 3−6 must be done before calibration of any item. DO NOT LOAD DE-FAULTS FOR ROUTINE CALIBRATION.

Note: After loading defaults, checksum errors will be displayed if you transition to topmenu level. Until AMX−4 is totally calibrated, these checksum errors will be dis-played as a reminder that system is not fully calibrated. Simply push the mAs �switch to continue past each checksum message, then mAs � to enter calibration.

2. Section 3−1: “Calibrate Drive Handle”

3. Section 3−2: “Calibrate Voltmeter”

4. Section 3−3: “Calibrate Generator”

Note: To ensure exposure accuracy at high technique and low battery voltage, DO NOTcalibrate generator when battery voltage is 115 volts or greater.

Note: If there are TUBE SPITS at high kVp’s during “Calibrate Taps,” try to slow thepace of calibration when the kVp is greater than 115 kVp. That is, wait approxi-mately 45 seconds between exposures, and keep the unit in prep longer by allow-ing the message “READY FOR X−RAY” to be displayed for 5 seconds beforepressing expose switch.

5. Section 3−4: “Calibrate Charger”

6. Section 3−5: “Adjust Field Light On Time”

7. Section 3−7, steps 1 through 6: “End Calibration”

Note: Step 6 of Section 3−7 of AMX−4 calibration direction requires functionalchecks of calibrated items in order to ensure proper operation.
