3.2 Checking the connection between PCs and X-ray unit
Switch on the ProMax X-ray unit, Romexis PC and the Reconstruction PC.
ProMax checks
• Check that the Ethernet LINK LED on the Ethernet PCB is on.
• Check that you can ping the ProMax IP address from the Romexis PC to verify that the
TCP/IP connection works (executing the command “ping <ProMax IP address>”, e.g.
ping 192.168.0.130, see below).
Figure 78
The ProMax sends a Reply packet in case the Ethernet link is up and running.
Reconstruction PC checks
• Check that you can ping the Reconstruction PC IP address from the Romexis PC to verify
that the TCP/IP connection works.
Connections
• When the Romexis program is ready for the exposure and the ProMax X-ray unit is in
Ready state check that:
- The 3D sensor head indicator light is on.
- The Ethernet and Sensor ACT LEDs on the Ethernet PCB are blinking.
- The Sensor LINK LED on the Ethernet PCB is blinking.
• Check that you can ping the ProMax 3D sensor IP address from the Romexis PC when the
3D sensor head indicator light is on.
