Gantry Boards
To simplify Gantry FRU management, only one version of each Gantry Board (i.e. Gantry CPU, Inter-
face, Rotation, Lift, Compression, Tilt, Collimator, PDU, and Bucky) is available, and is based on the
most common system level in the install base (currently IS4-3 Forward Production).
Every time you change a Gantry Board, you must do the following:
1. Go to the Service Desktop home page (see
2. Determine the system level from the ADS/IDC/Generator CPU versions displayed on the Service
Desktop home page, and by consulting Table 1 on page 63. The system level will be defined by one
of the System Level (Model Number) columns in Table 1 on page 63.
3. Check whether the current firmware version(s) for the new Gantry Board corresponds to the required
firmware version for the that system level.
•
If the current firmware version(s) match the required version(s) quoted in Table 1 on page 63, no
additional steps are required.
•
If the current firmware version(s) does not match the required version(s) you must perform a firm-
ware update of the mismatched firmware version(s) so that the new Gantry Board firmware ver-
sion(s) match those quoted in Table 1 on page 63. To update the new Gantry Board firmware
follow the instructions supplied in the Gantry Software Update CD-ROM that is kept with the sys-
tem.
