The general repair philosophy for the CardioMD is to repair at a Field Replaceable Unit (FRU)
level.
The hardware indicators and software diagnostic utilities allow fault isolation to FRU level.
6.2 Gantry Repairs
6.2.1 General
Most parts of the CardioMD system are easily replaceable in the field. No written procedures are
required for these. Some parts, however, require more comprehensive procedures to replace.
Those procedures are described in the following sections.
WARNING
Some gantry components represent risks of serious injury if removed. Make
sure that heavy parts are adequately supported or in balance during repairs on
these.
WARNING
Disconnect power to the gantry before replacing any electrical parts. Not
disconnecting power entails a risk of serious injury from electrical shock and
may lead to damage of the electronic parts.
Connect anti-static wrist strap before replacing any electrical parts. Failing to
use a wrist strap may lead to damage to electronic parts due to static discharge.
6.2.2 Tools
Tools needed for gantry repairs are:
• Metric Allen Keys 1.5 to 10 mm
• A 17 mm spanner
• A selection of standard and Phillips screwdrivers
• Assorted cable binders for re-cabling.
