The X D5 error on the Hitachi Speedia CT scanner typically relates to a generator fault, specifically associated with the high-voltage generator or tube connection, though in your case, it’s noted that the generator and tube seem to work properly for the Hounsfield Unit (HU) calibration. The fact that the error appears only after starting the warm-up process suggests that it could be related to the system's readiness or calibration state after being powered on.
Here are some possible causes and troubleshooting steps:
High-Voltage Generator Intermittent Fault: The error could still be related to an intermittent issue with the high-voltage generator, which might not fully manifest during calibration but could show up during the warm-up phase when the system is undergoing more rigorous testing.
Tube Overheating or Anomaly: Even if the tube is working during the HU calibration, the warm-up procedure might stress the system enough to reveal an issue related to heat or electrical resistance in the tube or wiring.
Electrical Connections or Wiring: Loose or damaged connections in the wiring between the generator and the tube might allow the system to calibrate normally but fail under the demands of the warm-up.
Cooling System Problems: If the cooling system isn’t properly maintaining the temperature of the generator or tube, it could trigger an error during warm-up. Inadequate cooling might not affect initial calibration but could cause overheating during the warm-up phase.
Software or Firmware Issues: There could be an issue with the system’s software, especially if the calibration and warm-up processes are handled differently in the programming.
Check for Loose Connections: Carefully inspect the power and signal connections to the generator and the X-ray tube, ensuring everything is tightly connected and free of corrosion or damage.
Check Cooling System: Confirm that the cooling system for the generator and X-ray tube is functioning properly. Ensure that fans, vents, and coolant are in optimal condition and that temperatures are within normal operating ranges.
Monitor Generator During Warm-up: Using diagnostic tools, monitor the generator’s performance throughout the warm-up phase. Look for fluctuations in current, voltage, or temperature that might indicate an issue.
Check Calibration Settings: Verify that all calibration and setup procedures have been followed correctly. In some cases, the system could require specific pre-warm-up calibration settings to function properly.
Reset the System: Power cycle the system and try the warm-up again. A reset can sometimes clear temporary errors caused by the system’s initialization process.
Examine System Logs: Review the system logs and error history for any patterns or related issues that might offer more insight into the error’s cause.
Hi Mr Jlinton
Thank you for your support.
This error XD5 appears after changing (SCANTA pcb)
Is there any relation between changing this pcb and the error ,Is there any data stored in SCANTA pcb
Best Regards
