CHAPTER 1 Introduction The Phyaction 190 is an appliance for ultrasound therapy and it can be used for combination therapy with an external electrotherapy appliance. In this chapter the important features from the users manual for service personnel are listed. In the next chapter the theory of operation will be explained.
1.3.5 Fitting the head holder As standard, a head holder is supplied with each treatment head. Before you use the Phyaction 190 for the first time, we advise you to fix the head holder(s) to the appliance. The ultrasound treatment head can be connected to the appliance easily and in a user-friendly manner into the head holder.

The display indicates which format of treatment head has been selected at that moment. As soon as the Phyaction 190 is switched on using the mains switch or from the stand-by position, or as soon as a treatment 1. GENERAL INFORMATION...
THE ULTRASOUND TREATMENT HEADS, the tuning process is described. 1.4.9 Head holder For each Phyaction 190 a head holder for each treatment head is supplied as standard. You can fit this to the appliance easily yourself. For a description of fixing the head holder to the appliance please refer to the drawing which is enclosed in the packing for the head holder.
General block diagram The block diagram of the Phyaction 190 is shown in figure 2.1. The microcontroller core, shown in the middle of the diagram, controls the complete apparatus. The user can set most of the parameters with the keyboard, which is shown at the left of the microcontroller.
Keeping track of the treatment time is also done by the microcontroller. 2. THEORY OF OPERATION Service information Phyaction 190 / 190i - Page 6...

If the output voltage is too high (because of a hardware failure), the microcontroller will shut down the ultrasound unit and give an error message. 2. THEORY OF OPERATION Service information Phyaction 190 / 190i - Page 7...

A resistor is in the connector of the treatment head to enable the microcontroller to detect whether a head is connected and to recognize the type of head that is connected. 2. THEORY OF OPERATION Service information Phyaction 190 / 190i - Page 8...
Patient leakage current Also register the measured values in the device records and compare them with the values measured in the past to alert for a possible potentially dangerous tendency. 3. PERFORMANCE CHECK Service information Phyaction 190 / 190i - Page 9...
As soon as you hear the buzzer you should release the keys. If you did it right, you will see at the bottom of the start-up screen that the Phyaction 190 is in service mode. You can now enter the service menu by holding down the yellow key for about 3 seconds.

(see section 1.3.6 Checking the ultrasound heads or Appendix 2 TUNING THE ULTRASOUND TREATMENT HEADS). If all of these things are checked and meet the specifications, then the treatment head is probably defective and should be exchanged. 3.

Introduction If a Phyaction 190 is defective, in most cases the unit will detect an error in the automatic self test. A full description of this test will therefore help the service technician in finding the error. In the next paragraph you will find this description.

If you place the module you should make sure the LEDs are positioned in the LED-lenses. Before you fix the module with the screws you should lift the appliance to make sure the O-rings are still on their place. 6. EXCHANGING BOARDS AND MODULES Service information Phyaction 190 / 190i - Page 17...
Because the memory is on this PCB, you have to realise the patient memory and all data of the treatment heads are erased. This means you have to reinstall the treatment heads (see Appendix 6. EXCHANGING BOARDS AND MODULES Service information Phyaction 190 / 190i - Page 18...
