information to a reader in a consistent manner. Conventions are used so that the reader can easily
recognize the actions or decisions that must be made. There are a number of character and
paragraph styles used in this publication to accomplish this task. Please become familiar with them
before proceeding forward.
It’s important that you read and understand hazard statements, and not just ignore them.
Section 1.0
Safety & Hazard Information
Proper product safety labeling allows a person to safely use or service a product. The format and
style for safety communications reflected in this publication represents the harmonization of IEC/
ISO 3864 and ANSI Z535 standards.
Within this publication, different paragraph and character styles are used to indicated potential
hazards. Paragraph prefixes, such as hazard, caution, danger and warning, are used to identify
important safety information. Text (Hazard) styles are applied to the paragraph contents that are
applicable to each specific safety statement.

2.1 General Paragraph and Character Styles
Prefixes are used to highlight important non-safety related information. Paragraph prefixes (such
as Purpose, Example, Comment or Note) are used to identify important but non-safety related
information. Text styles are also applied to text within each paragraph modified by the specific
prefix.

2.3 Computer Screen Output/Input Text Character Styles
Within this publication, mono-spaced character styles (fonts) are used to indicate computer text
that’s either screen input and output. Mono-spaced fonts, such courier, are used to indicated text
direction. When you type at your keyboard, you are generating computer input. Occasionally you
will see the math operator “greater-than” and “less-than” symbols used to indicate the start and
finish of variable output. When reading text generated by the computer, you are reading it as
computer generated output. In addition to direction, characters are italicized (e.g. italics) to indicate
information specific to your system or site.
Example: Fixed This paragraph’s font represents computer generated screen “fixed” output.
Output Its output is fixed from the sense that it does not vary from application
to application. It’s the most commonly used style used to indicate
filenames, paths and text that do not change from system to system. The
character style used is a fixed width such as courier.
Example: This paragraph’s font represents computer screen output that is
Variable Output “variable”. It’s used to represent output that varies from application to
application or system to system. Variable output is sometimes found placed
between greater-than and less-than operators for clarification. For
example: <variable_ouput> or <3.45.120.3>. In both cases, the < and >
operators are not part of the actual input.
Example: Fixed This paragraph’s font represents fixed input. It’s computer input that is
Input typed-in via the keyboard. Typed input that does not vary from application
to application or system to system. Fixed text the user is required to
supply as input. For example: cd /usr/3p
Example: This paragraph’s font represents computer input that can vary from
Variable Input application to application or system to system. With variable text, the
user is required to supply system dependent input or information. Variable
input sometimes is placed between greater-than and less-than operators.
For example: <variable_input>. In these cases, the (<>) operators would
be dropped prior to input. For example: ypcat hosts | grep <3.45.120.3>
would be typed into the computer as:
ypcat hosts | grep 3.45.120.3
without the greater-than and less-than operators.
2.4 Buttons, Switches and Keyboard Inputs (Hard & Soft Keys)
Different character styles are used to indicate actions requiring the reader to press either a hard or
soft button, switch or key. Physical hardware, such as buttons and switches, are called hard keys
because they are hard wired or mechanical in nature. A keyboard or on/off switch would be a hard
key. Software or computer generated buttons are called soft keys because they are software
generated. Software driven menu buttons are an example of such keys. Soft and hard keys are
represented differently in this publication.
Example: Hard A power switch ON/OFF or a keyboard key like ENTER is indicated by applying a character style
Keys that uses both over and under-lined bold text that is bold. This is a hard key.
Example: Soft Whereas the computer MENU button that you would click with your mouse or touch with your hand
Keys uses over and under-lined regular text. This is a soft key.

degree angle), until a small amount of water flows from the long free tube end. All bubbles
should be gone.
12.) With both plugs removed, bring the free end of the long tube alongside the same tube at the
mounted water-level case. Refer to Figure 2-8. Verify that the water line in the long plastic tube
settles at an equal level at both tubes ends. If the level is not equal, check for air bubbles in
the tube and remove.

13.) To measure the number of shims required, hold the tape scale and rod assembly or tape the
flexible scale up against the stationary rail bottom at each bolt location.
14.) Turn ON the water-level switch.
15.) With both plugs still removed, slowly raise the long tube free end along with the scale and rod
assembly up against the ceiling steelwork at any mounting location. Adjust the water line (up
or down) at the long tube free end until the buzzer first sounds. Refer to Figure 2-9.

16.) Take readings at each mounting bolt location and record these readings. This allows you to
determine the lowest bottom point of the stationary rails. This is the reference value. Calculate
the difference between this reference value and the other bolt locations greater than 1/32” (0.8
mm). Use these difference calculations to determine height and number of shims required at
each bolt hole location.
Shims will be required and placed at all points with a calculated difference of greater than 1/
32” (0.8 mm).
17.) When all measurements have been recorded, turn OFF the water-level switch and replace the
plugs at both the long tube free end and at the short tube on the water-level case side.

2.1 CRT Monitor - Wall Mounted
Note: Make sure to obtain data on the compression strength of the concrete wall before using a
“Rawl” bolt. For all other cases, an Architect or a Civil Engineer must provide a method to
mount the support.
Concrete must have a minimum compression strength of 25 MPa (1725 psi) at the time of
installation. The anchors must be installed to the depth as specified below:
- 60 mm (2.4 inches) for Rawl bolt M610L,
- 70 mm (2.75 inches) for Rawl bolt M810L.
The anchors are designed to be installed in pre-drilled holes having the same diameter as the
anchor diameter.
2.) Concrete wall thickness must be 15 mm (0.6 inches) greater than the anchor hole depth. A
60mm bolt requires a 75 mm (3 inch) concrete wall as a minimum wall thickness.
3.) Anchors must not be placed too close to concrete edges. The minimum distance between the
anchor hole center and any concrete edge is:
- 75 mm (3 inches) for Rawl bolt M610L,
- 85 mm (3.5 inches) for Rawl bolt M810L.
3.) Mount the “Support of Tilt & Swivel Base” to the top of the “Monitor Plate Support”, using the

Position Sensors
3.1 Longitudinal Position Sensor Hardware Installation
The following steps are taken to install the longitudinal position sensor, belt, and mounting brackets.
See Figure 4-33.
Figure 4-33 Longitudinal Position Sensor and Belt Anchor Bracket Locations
1.) See Figure 4-34. At the table head-end (to the left when viewed from the table front), remove
the rubber bumper from the bumper bracket (to access the mounting bolts) in the rear
stationary rail. Remove the bumper bracket, then re-install the bumper bracket together with
the adjustable belt anchor assembly using the 1 inch long ¼-20 hex head bolts, flat washers
2.) At the table foot-end (to the right when viewed from the table front), remove the rubber bumper
from the bumper bracket (to access the mounting bolts). Remove the bumper bracket from the
rear stationary rail and discard.
3.) See Figure 4-35. Install the belt (with the belt teeth facing upward) in the stationary belt anchor.
Mount the new bumper bracket, together with the stationary belt anchor, to the rear stationary
rail using the 1-1/4 inch long 1/4-20 hex head bolts, washers, spacer, and locknuts provided
with the belt anchor assembly. Attach the rubber bumper and screw to the new bumper
bracket.
6.) Move the bridge to the foot-end and align the longitudinal feedback assembly so that the belt
is centered on the idler pulley as shown in Figure 4-37. Tighten the mounting bolts on the
longitudinal feedback assembly.
7.) See Figure 4-39. Move the bridge to the extreme foot-end of travel. Route the belt over the first
pulley only. Carefully rotate the potentiometer gear counterclockwise (in the direction of the
arrow) until you come to the potentiometer end stop, and then rotate the potentiometer gear
back (clockwise) ½ turn from the end stop.
8.) See Figure 4-40. Without moving the potentiometer or the bridge, route the belt through
the remaining two pulleys, and connect the other end of the belt to the adjustable belt anchor
at the head-end of the rear stationary rail.
9.) See Figure 4-41. With the bridge at the extreme foot-end of travel, place the belt tensioning
weight (the red metal piece supplied with the belt and anchors) on the belt 24 inches (610 mm)
from the adjustable anchor ± 1 inch (25 mm).
10.) At the table head-end, adjust the belt tension until the edge of the belt tensioning weight is
aligned with the bottom of the stationary rail. Remove the belt tensioning weight and tighten
the locking bolt on the belt tensioner assembly. Trim any excess belt length.
11.) The longitudinal moving effort of the OTS must be measured to make sure the belt tension
does not cause the longitudinal moving effort of the XT to be unacceptable.
a.) Check to make sure that the OTS stationary rails are free of debris; clean if necessary.
b.) Using a force gage, measure the longitudinal moving force of the OTS suspension in both
directions. Push on the side of the UIF handle that would represent the placement of the
operator’s hand.
c.) Longitudinal force required to move the OTS, with the sensor unit installed and properly
tensioned, should not exceed 5 lbs.
I.) If the force required exceeds 5 lbs, re-check the belt tension (too tight will increase
moving efforts).
II.) Check to make sure that the OTS stationary rails are free of debris; clean if
necessary.
III.) Re-check the longitudinal moving efforts and if still greater than 5 lbs, disconnect the
belt, re-check the longitudinal moving efforts, and if still high proceed to identify the
source of the friction or obstruction before proceeding with the installation.
d.) Proper installation of the belt is achieved when the OTS moving efforts are measured to
be below 5 lbs, the belt deflection satisfies the criteria described in Step 10, and the belt
does not deflect excessively or whip when the bridge is moved longitudinally.
12.) If adjustment to the longitudinal belt was necessary, be sure to re-tighten the belt tensioner
locking bolt. See Figure 4-34.
2.) Connect the cable to the longitudinal sensor assembly. See Figure 4-43.
3.) Route the 2 wires that branch out of cable at the longitudinal position sensor to the longitudinal
lock per Figure 4-43 and Figure 4-44.
b.) Loosen the tension locking screw (see Figure 4-48) and adjust the belt tension until the
edge of the belt tensioning weight is aligned with the bottom of the stationary rail. If the

Potential for Injury from excessive weight. The extension is heavy. Installation of the OTS
Extension Extension requires two people.
Heavy.
1.) To prevent lateral movement of the lateral carriage, lock the carriage in the bridge by installing
the carriage locking bolt. See Figure 4-49
2.) Extend the OTS vertically about 22 inches. See Figure 4-50. Since the counterpoise of the
OTS was factory adjusted for an X-ray tube and collimator load, it will be necessary to pull the
column downward to overcome the spring loading.
3.) Lock the counterpoise with the columns extended to 22" by engaging the counterpoise locking
bolt into the closest notch. See Figure 4-51.
4.) Use a lifting fixture to support the X-ray tube, then remove the four X-ray tube hex head
mounting bolts. Remove the X-ray tube and spacer and set aside.
5.) Apply tape to the main reel to prevent the cable from jumping groves or becoming tangled as
the column sections are raised. See Figure 4-52.
6.) Remove the trim cover from the bottom of the gooseneck.
7.) Position a lifting fixture at the bottom of the gooseneck, making sure not to block the rear area
where the cable anchor nut is located. See Figure 4-53.
8.) Raise the column sections until they are all the way to the top. Allow the counterweight cable
to extend as the column sections are raised. See Figure 4-54.
9.) With the column sections raised to the top, install the shipping rod to prevent the sections from
extending. See Figure 4-55. Slightly raise or lower the sections to allow engagement of the
shipping rod.
10.) Remove the cable anchor nut from the bottom of the center column. See Figure 4-56 and
Figure 4-57.
11.) Remove the four bolts that secure the gooseneck to the center vertical column and remove the
gooseneck. Rotate the gooseneck to get access to the bolts. Use a thinwall 3/8”, 12 point
socket and protect the gooseneck finish by applying a piece of masking tape. See Figure 4-58.
12.) Install the column extension with the through holes at the top and the threaded holes at the
bottom. Match the seams on the extension with the seams on the vertical column. Use the four
long bolts and lock washers provided with the column extension kit. See Figure 4-59 and
Figure 4-60.
13.) Re-attach the gooseneck to the bottom of the extension column using the short bolts provided
with the column extension kit. Do not use lock washers. See Figure 4-60
Note: The dimple on the bottom of the detent ring must be positioned at the front of the extension

column.
14.) Re-install the cable anchor nut and lock washer. See Figure 4-62.
There are two balls located on the cable; one at the end of the cable and one about 23 inches
(58 cm) from the end of the cable. For the Precision 500D system, the ball at the end of the
cable should be used. See Figure 4-57.
15.) Remove the shipping rod by positioning the lifting fixture under the gooseneck and raising it
slightly until the shipping rod is loose.
16.) Slowly lower the lifting fixture to take up any slack in the main counterweight cable and allow
the vertical column to extend. Continue lowering the gooseneck until the ball at the end of the
cable is seated in the cable anchor nut as shown in Figure 4-101.
If the safety mechanism has engaged, it will be necessary to disengage the mechanism before
the columns can be lowered.
17.) Remove the tape from the main reel and verify that the cable is positioned properly
Section 5.0
X-Ray Tube
1.) Clean and grease the HV cable connectors. See Figure 4-64.
It may be necessary to temporarily remove the two bolts that attach the cable hose assembly
to the tube bracket before connecting the anode cable.
3.) Remove the fan grill, the tube/fan cover, and the cable entrance cover. See Figure 4-67
Figure 4-71 and Figure 4-72.
4.) Secure stator cable to cable entrance cover with clamp on Version 1 & 2 cable covers,

6.) Attach cable entrance cover and tube/fan cover. See Figure 4-71.
2.) Install the UIF mounting plate to the tube/collimator interface plate. See Figure 4-74.
3.) Remove the two collimator blade shipping screws. See Figure 4-75.
4.) Remove the blade protector by backing off the three collimator mounting screws and remove
the screw that holds the detent lever away. See Figure 4-75.
5.) Make sure that the collimator blades are fully closed before installing the collimator onto the X-
ray tube.
6.) Being careful not to damage the collimator fingers, position the collimator on the X-ray tube.
See Figure 4-76. Be sure the detent lever is not preventing the collimator from seating fully.
7.) Tighten the three collimator mounting screws until they are snug and then back out 1/2 turn.
Verify that the collimator is still able to pivot without too much effort when the tube is rotated
and pointing down. Verify that when the collimator is not in a detent location, a minimum force
of 4 lbs. is required to rotate the collimator.
8.) Remove the collimator cable trim cover. Connect the collimator cable and install the metal
strain relief. Make sure the metal strain relief contacts the cable metal braid. See Figure 4-77
9.) Re-install trim cover over collimator cable connector. See Figure 4-78

is maintained throughout the entire routing of the fiber optic cables. The fiber optics inside the
cables may break if they are flexed at less than a 50 mm bend radius. This 50 mm minimum
bend radius must be maintained inside all conduits, raceways, cable troughs and cabinets.
2.) The fiber optic cables should be routed directly into the plastic couplers. Side pressure on the
cables or connectors can result in poor connections that may disrupt the optical
communication path.
3.) Real Time Bus cables must be separated from high power cables (240 VAC, for example). If
these cables are in close proximity, the Precision 500D R&F System may experience system
lock-ups or system resets.
4.) If excess cables must be coiled and stored, they must be coiled in a “figure 8" configuration,
NOT a single coil stack.
5.) Power cables must be kept separate from signal cables as much as possible. In wall ducts or
raceway, power cables should be routed in a separate channel from signal cables. Inside
system cabinets, power cables should not be bundled together with signal cables.

EMC Compliance
1.) For EMC compliance, several cables require additional grounding through the use of P-clamps
connected to the cable shields. It is important that these P-clamps connections are made
properly in order to provide the necessary electrical ground. When more than one P-clamp
must be attached at the same mounting location, refer to Figure 9-2 and Figure 9-3 for correct
orientation of the P-clamps.
3.) When connecting the Stator 2 cable (MIS 11710A) to the System Cabinet bulkhead (SKL1-
A25), install the P-clamps as shown in Figure 9-4 and Figure 9-6. For shipping, the P-clamps
4.) When connecting the Stator 1 cable (MIS 11685A) to the System Cabinet bulkhead (SKL1-
A25), install the P-clamps as shown in Figure 9-4 and Figure 9-7. For shipping, the P-clamps
are attached to the hex standoff located at the bottom of the bulkhead.
5.) When connecting the AC Power cable (MIS 11693A) to the Positioner Cabinet power bulkhead
(RFP1-A1-A29), install the P-clamp as shown in Figure 9-8. For shipping, the P-clamp is
attached to the bulkhead.
6.) When connecting the AC Power cable (MIS 11693A) to the cable base (RFP3-A1-A1), install
the P-clamp as shown in Figure 9-9. For shipping, the P-clamp is attached to the cable base.
7.) When connecting the Stator 1 cable (MIS 11685A) to the cable base (RFP3-A1-A1), install the
P-clamps as shown in Figure 9-9. For shipping, the P-clamps are attached to the cable base.
9.) When connecting the Stator 1 cable going from the rear of the cable base to the fluoro X-ray
tube, install the P-clamps as shown in Figure 9-11. For shipping, the P-clamps are attached to
the cable base.
11.) After the cable installation is complete, group and Ty-Rap the cables located at the bottom of
the System Cabinet as shown in Figure 9-13 and Figure 9-14. Do not Ty-Rap power and signal
cables together in the same bundle. Keep power and signal cables separated as much as
possible.
a.) On the left side of the bulkhead (Figure 9-13), the Stator 2 cable (MIS 11710A) should
NOT be Ty-Rapped together with the other cables on the left side.
b.) On the right side of the bulkhead (Figure 9-13), the IUI Power cable (MIS 11671A) should
NOT be Ty-Rapped together with the other cables on the right side.
c.) For cables connected to the PDU (Figure 9-14), Ty-Rap the two large power cables
together and keep them separate from the other cables.

Grout and Pad Preparation
Section 3.0
Introduction
3.1 Purpose of Grout
The reason for grout is to provide a level, flat surface for the installation of equipment. The control
of environmental factors and mixing procedure influences effectiveness. Proper grout preparation
insures successful and repeatable results. This material that follows describes how to obtain good
results. It’s recommended that you use Ardex K-15 (See 4.3 on page 232) brand grout, which has
the following characteristics:
• It can be applied in any thickness in a single operation.
• It is a special cement blend.
• It seeks its own level.
• It hardens by hydration and water evaporation.
• It sets in 2 to 4 hours
• It dries in 12 to 16 hours.
• Working time for featheredging and touch-up is 30 min @ 70 degrees F (21 degrees C).
• Flow time is 10 min @ 70 degrees F (21 degrees C).
Section 4.0
Grouting Supplies
4.1 Tools Required
The following tools are needed for grouting:
• 1/2” (12.7 mm) heavy-duty, double-insulated electric drill motor, 650 rpm.
• Ardex T-2, Flat Bottom Ring Mixing Paddle, to be used with the drill motor.
Never use a paint mixer. It causes excessive aeration of the grout mixture and reduces its
strength.
• Level (longest length available).
• Knife and scraper to remove grout dam material.
• Sponge, cloth rags or brush to apply floor primer.
• Vacuum cleaner to remove dust and dirt from floor.
Section 5.0
Floor Preparation and Priming
5.1 Description
Ardex P-51 and P-82 Primers are used to prepare the flooring surfaces upon which grout will be
applied to improve bonding and to reduce moisture lost from the grout during drying.
5.2 Procedure
1.) Flooring surface must be solid, clean, and free from grease, wax, latex compounds, curing
compounds, dust and other foreign matter where grouting will be applied. Use a vacuum
Section 6.0
Grout Preparation
Ardex K-15, when mixed with water, becomes a liquid compound which seeks its own level and
automatically produces a smooth and flat surface. This grouting procedure is recommended for use
with X-ray tables and positioner. It will also fill voids by capillary action. An alternate method for
grouting is to place the base plate in its final raised position and flow the grout under it. This
procedure is recommended for use with LC arms. K-15 hardens quickly by hydration and water
evaporation. It dries within 12 to 16 hours and does not depend on grout thickness.
6.1.2 Procedure
It is recommended that two people work together. This is dependent on the size of surface area to
be covered.
1.) Remove plastic bag containing Ardex K-15 powder from the mixing pail.
2.) Install the Ardex T-2 mixing paddle in the 1/2 inch electric drill motor.
Never mix grout with a hand paddle. Never use a jiffy paint mixer which causes excessive
aeration of the grout mixture.
3.) Add cold water to the mark on the pail. This is equivalent to 1 part by volume of cold water to
3.5 parts by volume of grout powder.
