    GENERAL INFORMATION CHAPTER 1 Introduction The Phyaction 796 is an appliance for ultrasound therapy, electrotherapy (1 channel medium frequency or TENS), combination therapy (MF & US) and laser therapy. The Phyaction 792 is the same as the 796, except that it can't support laser therapy. The Phyaction 793 is the same as the Phyaction 792, except it also contains rectified currents for electrotherapy.
  • Page 4: Installation

    A warning sign should be hung on the door to the area in which laser therapy is being applied. The sign should include the laser warning symbol and the text "Attention, laser light is used in the area". The equipment may not be disinfected or sterilized. The equipment contains a number of safety systems which operate independently of the microprocessor.

    holding it down until the STANDARD SETTINGS menu appears. You have the choice from various languages. Once selected, the equipment will use the language you have chosen. 1.3.5 Location and transportation The equipment must be set up horizontally and stable. You must ensure that the perforated sections on both sides of the casing are not covered up, thus hindering air circulation.
  • Page 6 The yellow lamps beside the output connectors for the ultrasound heads and the laser probes illuminate respectively as soon as ultrasound or infra-red power is emitted. The yellow lamp beside the current output illuminates as soon as 5mA of current is exceeded. 1.4.3 Infra-red sensor Infra-red laser beams are invisible.

    For reasons of patient safety and correct operation of the equipment, the connection of probes other than those supplied by Uniphy is not permitted. If in doubt about the proper operation of your laser probe, you can check this by using technical application no.

  • Page 17: Chapter 2 Theory Of Operation

    THEORY OF OPERATION CHAPTER 2 Introduction In this chapter a description of the electronic construction of the Phyaction 790-series is given on the functional level. Only where safety aspects are concerned we will look into the actual circuitry. The next paragraph deals with the whole appliance and those blocks that are in use with all therapies.
  • Page 18 2.2.1 Microcontroller core As central processing unit a microcontroller is being used in favour of a microprocessor. The reason being that a microcontroller, by its construction and available commands, is particularly suited for bit-level operations. From the software point of view there is no difference but it is much easier to manipulate a single I/O-pin.

    level for the logic ICs. Electrotherapy unit Figure 2 shows the functional blocks for the electrotherapy unit and the associated safety circuit. These circuits are identical to the ones in the Phyaction 780-series. Just a minor simplification has been made in the setting of the maximum current guarding because for the near future only generation of MF currents and TENS is envisaged.

    2.3.3 Voltage to current converter The voltage-to-current-converter (V/C-converter) converts, as the name indicates, the applied input voltage into a linear proportional output-current. As it is conceived as a balanced stage it is easy to determine the polarity of the output current by applying the controlling voltage to one of the two inputs. The primary output current flows through a low-ohmic resistor.
  • Page 21 Figure 3, Functional blocks of the ultrasound therapy unit Settings of parameters as duty cycle, treatment time and frequency, 1 or 3 MHz resp., is done over the user interface. The microcontroller determines the precise operating frequency for the selected treatment head, based upon the identification codes that have been entered during installation of this treatment head.
  • Page 22: Infrared Laser Unit

    2.4.3 Secondary switch mode power supply This is a regular down-converter powered by the +29V supply. The only peculiarity being that its output voltage is controllable by V . In this way the microcontroller can set the ultrasound power by setting control proportional to the square-root of the required power.
  • Page 23 Figure 4, Functional blocks of the infrared laser therapy unit The microcontroller controls the laser probes through the I/O-buffers. The operator sets with the energy control-knob the amount of energy that has to be delivered. The microcontroller converts this, depending on the selected repetition rate, distance to the surface to be treated and the laser probe being employed (= type of laser), into energy per square centimetre and required treatment time.
  • Page 24 2.5.4 Trickle charger At repetition rates below 400 Hz the leakage discharge of the capacitor gets significant so too less energy would remain for the next laser pulse. Therefore this trickle charger which operates in parallel to the switching element in the laser probe periodically restores the energy level between the laser pulses. 2.5.5 Laser test facility A photo-pindiode is illuminated trough an attenuating window by the laser diode to be measured.

  • Page 27: Chapter 4 Adjustment Procedures

    For this adjustment you will need a calibrated laser probe (model 241 or 242), which can be bought from Uniphy. Uniphy will carry out a yearly calibration if wanted. This adjustment has to be carried out every time the control board (PCB 791X) is exchanged.

    TROUBLE SHOOTING CHAPTER 5 Introduction In this chapter a description is given of the most common error messages and their probable cause. The following categories of errors are identified: Errors during selftest Errors during normal use Software errors With a number of errors a special message is displayed explaining in short what the detected problem is. All other errors are displayed in the following manner (the numbers are just an example and change per error): THE PROCESSOR HAS DETECTED AN ERROR...
  • Page 29: Error Shutdown Procedure

    Error shutdown procedure The safety circuit will switch off the safety relay directly in the event of an error, thus disconnecting the output from the unit to external connections to avoid danger to the patient. In addition to this the microprocessor will, if it detects an error either from the safety circuit or otherwise, perform the following actions: Safety relay off: Patient circuit disconnected.
  • Page 30 Program storage test. By means of a checksum test on the first 32k the data integrity of the program stored in EPROM is tested. In case of a failure the buzzer will be activated 6 times (ERROR 21). With the above tests the operation of the microcontroller is tested. PERIPHERAL TEST Bank switch circuit.
  • Page 31 6.1 and 8.0 V (on ADC 1.10 and 1.45 V, ADC-values 00E1 and 0128h). When the voltage is out of range ERROR 60 is reported, with error value the measured ADC-value. Optocoupler test. The voltage returned from the optocouplers for high resistance check (patient circuit resistance) must be between 3.75 V and 4.25 V (ADC-values 02FFh and 0365h) in case there is no output current set.
  • Page 32 is not activated within 40 msec ERROR 65 is generated, with error code 0. Test if the safety relay contacts open. If the above test passes but a closed circuit is detected (Vmf below 20.7 V, on ADC 3.73 V, ADC-value 02FBh) the same error is generated, ERROR 65. This time the error code is 1 and the error value the measured ADC-value.
  • Page 33 The microcontroller verifies whether the voltages indicating the type of ultrasound treatment head connected are within the following ranges: Small head: 0.88 .. 1.48V, ADC-value: 00B4h .. 012Eh Large head: 2.20 .. 2.80V, ADC-value: 01C2h .. 023Ch Extra large head: 3.48 ..
  • Page 34 Finally the supply is set to minimum voltage, the test line TST4 is deactivated and the ultrasound power stage is switched on for 100 msec. When the error line (ERRORus) is still active you will get ERROR 73, with error code 5. 5.3.4 Test laser generator TEST OF THE PROBE TYPES The microcontroller verifies whether the voltages indicating the type of laser probe connected are within...
