PROCESSING UNIT
(MCPU) - A2
BOARD
The BOOT CODE of the MCPU BOARD A2:
•
provides configuration information for the MICROCONTROLLER
and checks the memory.
•
checks the main application program on the PCMCIA CARD
under the MCPU BOARD A2 and loads it into the main memory
of the MCPU BOARD A2.
•
starts the application program for the CR 825/850 SYSTEM.
•
checks that the MCPU BOARD A2 signals can be sent between
the MSC BOARD and the INTERNAL PC.
•
reads the calibration data stored on the PCMCIA CARD.
•
checks the DIGITIZER BOARD A3 using a diagnostic program on
the DIGITIZER BOARD A3.
The MCPU BOARD A2:
•
obtains raw image data from the DIGITIZER BOARD A3
•
changes the image data from 16-bit linear to 12-bit log data
•
actuates the LASER
•
provides correction of the Collector Profile for the image data
•
sends the image to the INTERNAL PC for image processing and
viewing
•
provides the DIGITIZER BOARD A3 and the GALVO BOARD A4
with the scanning parameters determined by the size of the
SCREEN to be scanned
•
records the maximum pixel value of a scan to allow the "smart
erase" algorithm can calculate the time to erase the SCREEN
•
provides an interface to the MSC BOARD A1
