System Setup
2. Connect the ERT Control/Gating Module (720200) to the PC using the serial
interface cable (CGIC-201).
3. Power the ERT Control/Gating Module with the external 12 VDC power supply
(PS-2-12-CG).
4. Connect the ERT Control/Gating Module to the ERT Module (110100) using the
simplex fiber optic cable. Connect to the port on the ERT Control/Gating Module
labeled "ECG" and to the ERT Module's "Gray Fiber" port.
is made to the blue fiber port.
5. Connect the ERT Module Battery Pack (ERTBP3-108-PCC) to the ERT Module
using the ERT Module Battery Pack Cable (BPC-210). A red light should be
visible in the fiber optic port labeled "gray fiber". The battery pack should be
connected to the ERT battery charger when not in use. The ERT battery pack
charger is internal to the ERT Control/Gating Module. An optional ERT Battery
Pack Wall Charger (BPCG-210) is also available. It is not necessary to deep
discharge the battery or to disconnect it from the charger after it is fully charged.
6. Set the options switch on the ERT Control/Gating Module to "options not in use".
7. Position the Heater Module (76n100) near the magnet bore and connect it to AC
power. Connect the fan air hose (FAH-20) (long tube) to the port on the Heater
Module labeled "Fan". Connect the warm air hose (WAH-5) (short tube) to the
port on the Heater Module labeled "Warm Air". Connect the simplex fiber optic
cable to the fiber optic receptacle on the Heater Module and ERT Control/Gating
Module labeled "Heater Control".
8. Locate the Fan Module (77n100) in a low region of fringe field and connect to AC
power and to the fan air hose. Note: In some situations it may be desirable to
locate the Heater Module outside the magnet room or to locate the Fan Module
in the magnet room (refer to Chapter 6).
Warning: the Fan Module is magnetic and must be
9. To provide a trigger to the MR system, connect a BNC cable (not supplied) from
the MR scanner's gate input to the GATE connection on the ERT Control/Gating
Module. Note the ERT Control/Gating Module is shipped from the factory with
the gate output pulse configuration set to either "active low" or "TTL" based on
your scanner's gating signal requirements. The gate output pulse configuration
can be changed (refer to Chapter 3).
