7-9/00 New 9410 Version 1.3 Menu Items Applicable to the
8600
The PACS Link 9410 units currently being shipped with 8600 Laser Imagers all have SMT Version 1.3
software installed. Consequently, the 8600s need to have system software Version 2.4 installed. If you are
at a new installation and the 8600 does not have Version 2.4 software, contact TAC for a copy or upload it
from the Service CD-ROM, Rev. S. Use the software installation procedure provided in the Installation
section of the 8600 Service Manual.
While SMT Version 1.1 had control only over Density, Contrast, and Smoothing in the 8600, SMT Version
1.3 can control those three parameters plus Modality (Contrast) Group, Smoothing (Kernel) Group, and
Gamma Table. Additional menu items have been added to the Registered Users menu of SCP Printers and
to the Local Printers menu to accommodate the new capabilities. Accordingly, the following new menu
items must be configured at installation.
Registered Users
TFT/ULUT - Not configurable for the 8600
Gamma Table = Linear in Transmittance
Contrast Group = 6 (for GE Senographe 2000D). For other OEMs see Table 2-4 in the 8600 Service
Manual.
Kernel Group = 1
Local Printers
Installed TFT/ULUT - Not configurable for the 8600
All other menu items should be configured as noted in the Installation section of the 8600 Service Manual.
8-9/00 Thin Horizontal Line Across Width of Film
Problem:
A horizontal line appears across the film, about 5-1/2 inches from the top. It may look like image data is
missing in one or two scan lines. The line, which may be intermittent, occurs across the entire width of the
film, traversing both the image and the borders.
Cause:
The operator may have removed a jam and attempted to snap the upper film guide back into place, but only
one side got latched. The line is caused by the film hesitating while it is being imaged, as it enters the
processor assembly.
Solution:
As a phone fix, ask the operator to reseat the upper film guide and ensure that it is snapped into place on
both sides.
