Centricity™ SP1001 features

The Centricity™ SP1001 is a Digitizer for image plates retaining latent X-ray

images. It has been developed for GEMS.

■The Centricity™ SP1001 accepts one cassette containing one image plate at a

time. The Centricity™ SP1001:

•takes the cassette containing the image plate from the cassette slot;

•removes the image plate from the cassette;

•scans the image plate;

•converts the information of the latent image to digital data;

•transmits the image data to the preview station;

•erases the image plate and re-inserts it into the cassette;

•gives the cassette ID data the status ‘erased’;

•returns the cassette;

•transmits the digital image data to an image processing station (‘destination’).

■The Centricity™ SP1001 permits assigning the status ‘emergency’ to an image.

An emergency image will be given priority by the image processing station.

■The Centricity™ SP1001 permits re-erasing an image plate before re-using it. In

specific cases, this is necessary to prevent ghost images caused by previous

exposures or stray radiation from interfering with the image of interest.

■If the Centricity™ SP1001 is dedicated to one ID Station, additional features are

available:

•quickly identifying cassettes without the need for an ID Tablet;

•reading the identification data of a cassette;

•initializing a cassette, i.e. changing the image plate type.

■The Pathspeed™ CR Digitizers (Pathspeed™ SP1001 and Pathspeed™

MP3010) and the Centricity™ CR Digitizers (Centricity™ SP1001 and Centricity™

SP1001) are designed for operation with Agfa CR cassettes and Agfa CR

phosphor plates. Contact your local GE Medical Systems sales agent for product

and ordering information.

Safety precautions

General safety instructions

•The Centricity™ SP1001 has been designed for scanning medical X-ray image

plates and should only be used for these purposes.

•The Centricity™ SP1001 must only be operated by qualified staff.

•Make sure that the Centricity™ SP1001 is constantly monitored in order to avoid

inappropriate handling, especially by children.

•Only trained service personnel must make repairs. Only authorized service

personnel must make changes to the Centricity™ SP1001.

•If there is any visible damage to the machine casing, do not start nor use the

Centricity™ SP1001.

•If you want to connect the Centricity™ SP1001 with other devices, components or

assemblies and if the technical data do not permit determining whether the

combination with these devices, components or assemblies involves hazards, you

must consult the respective manufacturers to avoid danger for operating

personnel or the environment.

•Do not override or disconnect the integrated safety features.

•Switch off the Centricity™ SP1001 before performing any maintenance work or

repairs. Disconnect the Centricity™ SP1001 from the mains before making repairs

or performing any maintenance activities during which live electrical components

may be exposed.

•As is the case for all technical devices, the Centricity™ SP1001 must be operated,

cared for and serviced correctly.

•If you don’t operate the Centricity™ SP1001 correctly or if you don’t have it

serviced correctly, GE Medical Systems Information Technologies is not liable for

resulting disturbances, damages or injuries.

•When installing the Centricity™ SP1001, care must be taken to ensure that there

is either a mains plug or an all-cable disconnecting device in the internal

installation fitted near the Centricity™ SP1001 and that it is easily accessible.

85011A EN 20020315

•If you notice conspicuous noise or smoke, disconnect the Centricity™ SP1001

immediately.

•Check that the voltage setting of the machine matches the power supply voltage

before connecting the machine to the mains.

Safety instructions for laser products

The Centricity™ SP1001 is a Class 1 Laser Product. Under normal operating

conditions - when the service doors are closed - there can be no laser radiation

outside the Centricity™ SP1001.

•Open the lower front door only to replace the erasure lamps or the fuses. Open

the right side panel only to solve cassette or image plate jams. When you open the

lower front door or the right side panel, the power supply is switched off

automatically as a precaution.

•Follow meticulously the operation and troubleshooting instructions in the

Centricity™ SP1001 User and Reference Manual. Other actions can be

hazardous.

Safety compliance

The Centricity™ SP1001 complies with:

•the general safety regulations EN 60950, EN 60601-1-2, UL 1950 and

CSA C22.2 No. 950;

•the radio interference regulations EN 55022:1997, Class B and FCC 47, Part 15,

Subchapter B, Class A;

•the laser safety regulations EN 60825-1:1994 and DHHS/FDA 21 CFR,

Parts 1040.10 and 1040.11.

Operating modes

The Centricity™ SP1001 can be operated in three modes: operator mode, key-

operator mode, and service mode.

Operator mode

The operator mode groups all basic functions which are aimed at radiographers:

•Reading an image plate;

•Reading an emergency image plate;

•Re-erasing an image plate;

•Reading the identification data of a cassette (Dedicated configuration only);

•Changing the image plate type (Dedicated configuration only).

All functions of the operator mode are described in

Chapter 2, ‘Basic operation

(‘Operator mode’)’

Key-operator mode

The key-operator mode groups advanced functions which are aimed at

technicians.

The key-operator mode can be accessed via the Key-operator key on the

keypad and is menu-driven. The key-operator functions are described in

Chapter 3, ‘Advanced operation (‘Key-operator mode’)’

of the Centricity™

SP1001 Reference manual.

Service mode

The service mode functions are reserved for trained service personnel. They are

password protected.

Configurations

The Centricity™ SP1001 can be used in two configurations: either one or more

ID Stations serve a range of Digitizers, or one ID Station is dedicated to one

Digitizer. The ID Software installed on the ID Station is slightly different

depending on the configuration. For more information, contact your local service

organization.

Interchangeable configuration

One or more ID Stations can serve a range of Digitizers, provided that each ID

Station has an ID Tablet. There is no physical link required between the ID

Station and the Digitizer.

In this configuration, a cassette can be identified via any of the ID Stations and

subsequently be scanned using any of the Digitizers. The patient demographic

data and examination data are entered via the ID Station and stored in the

memory chip of the Centricity™ CR compatible cassette via the ID Tablet. As a

result the identification data are linked to the cassette and any Digitizer can be

used to scan the cassette.

The interchangeable configuration permits the flexible use of several Digitizers

and ID Stations depending on the workload.
