IMPORTANT! . . . X-RAY PROTECTION

X-ray equipment if not properly used may cause injury. Accordingly, the instructions herein contained
should be thoroughly read and understood by everyone who will use the equipment before you attempt to
place this equipment in operation. The General Electric Company, Medical Systems Group, will be glad to
assist and cooperate in placing this equipment in use.
Although this apparatus incorporates a high degree of protection against x-radiation other than the useful beam, no
practical design of equipment can provide complete protection. Nor can any practical design compel the operator to
take adequate precautions to prevent the possibility of any persons carelessly exposing themselves or others to
radiation.
It is important that everyone having anything to do with x-radiation be properly trained and fully acquainted with the
recommendations of the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements as published in NCRP Reports
available from NCRP Publications, 7910 Woodmont Avenue, Room 1016, Bethesda, Maryland 20814, and of the
International Commission on Radiation Protection, and take adequate steps to protect against injury.
The equipment is sold with the understanding that the General Electric Company, GE Healthcare Group, its agents,
and representatives have no responsibility for injury or damage which may result from improper use of the equipment.
Various protective material and devices are available. It is urged that such materials or devices be used.
CERTIFIED ELECTRICAL CONTRACTOR STATEMENT

All electrical installations that are preliminary to positioning of the equipment at the site prepared for the equipment shall be
performed by licensed electrical contractors. In addition, electrical feeds into the Power Distribution Unit shall be performed
by licensed electrical contractors. Other connections between pieces of electrical equipment, calibrations, and testing shall
be performed by qualified GE Healthcare personnel. The products involved (and the accompanying electrical installations)
are highly sophisticated, and special engineering competence is required. In performing all electrical work on these
products, GE will use its own specially trained field engineers. All of GE’s electrical work on these products will comply with
the requirements of the applicable electrical codes.
The purchaser of GE equipment shall only utilize qualified personnel (i.e., GE’s field engineers, personnel of third-party
service companies with equivalent training, or licensed electricians) to perform electrical servicing on the equipment.
DAMAGE IN TRANSPORTATION
DAMAGE IN TRANSPORTATION
All packages should be closely examined at time of delivery. If damage is apparent, have notation “Damage in
Shipment” written on all copies of the freight or express bill before delivery is accepted or “signed for” by a General
Electric representative or a hospital receiving agent. Whether noted or concealed, damage MUST be reported to the
carrier immediately upon discovery, or in any event, within 14 days after receipt, and the contents and containers held
for inspection by the carrier. A transportation company will not pay a claim for damage if an inspection is not requested
within this 14−day period.
To file a report:
· Call 1−800−548−3366 and use option 8.

· Fill out a report on http://egems.med.ge.com/edq/home.jsp
· Contact your local service coordinator for more information on this process.

2-1 Check CPU Firmware
Newer firmware (version 46−329187G1/46−329188G1 and after) limits the charge cycle
time. CPU and firmware should be upgraded to the latest revision to upgrade the battery
charging algorithm. Verify revision of current CPU board or replace CPU board in accor-
dance with Section 2-2 and Table 4.

Order replacement CPU board 46−264974G5 or later if not already present. Older firmware
(before version 46−329187G1/46−329188G1) does not limit the time of the charge cycle.
This can cause excessive overheating while charging if a battery is failed.
2-2-1 Set for French or English Operator Messages
Selection of French or English operator messages is determined by position 6 of DIP switch

S75 on the AMX Controller (CPU) Board.
1. Look at the operator messages displayed to determine if they are in the desired lan-
guage.
2. To change the language of the operator messages, set Position 6 of DIP switch S75
on the CPU Board in accordance with Illustrations 2 and 3.
Note: The other positions of S75 are shown for reference, but should not require chang-
ing.

2-3 Check Battery Charger Board
The minimum battery charger board is a 46−288786G2 or newer. It is fully backward com-
patible and is recommended for all units. The 46−288786G1 board is the non−EMC com-
pliant version of the G2 board.

31. Connect free end of Cable #2 from Battery #8 [−] to Battery #9 (+), connect sense wire
#9 (+) Purple, tighten nut and slide a boot over terminal. Route cable behind Insulator
#1 and along plastic spacer.

32. Connect one end of Cable #3 to Battery #9 (−), and connect sense wire #9 (−) Gray,
tighten nut and slide a boot over cable terminal. Route other end of Cable #3 through
grommet in hole in top of battery compartment. Tape other end of Cable #3.
Note: Do NOT connect Cable #3 to ground stud yet.
33. Connect AMX harness to J11 (output) and new battery harness to J1−10 (input) at Bat-
tery Sense board connectors. Remove adhesive tape from feet of Sense circuit board
and place board on top of battery #9.
34. Measure the battery voltage between top circuit breaker terminal (LINE) with Cable
#4 connected (battery positive) and the unconnected end of Cable #3 (battery nega-
tive). It should measure between 111 and 118 volts DC, depending on state of charge
of the batteries.
35. (Applicable to Kit 46−329314G5 ONLY.)
Route the terminal block cable through the unit and mount the terminal block as fol-
lows:
a. Open top cover of AMX−4.
b. Route connector end of furnished terminal block cable through grommets in

chassis as shown in Illustration 16.
c. Drill two holes 0.140 inches (9/64 inch) diameter, 2.65 inches apart, and attach
terminal block using hardware as shown in Illustration 16.
d. Secure terminal block cable to existing harness using furnished Ty−rap straps.
Connect other end of cable to the test terminal board connector J11.
Note: The terminal block is a test point, and is only connected to the harness.
e. Measure the individual battery voltages across terminals of terminal block. Posi-
tion 1 to Position 2 of terminal block measures Battery #1, Position 2 to Position
3 measures Battery #2, and so forth. Voltage of each battery should be greater
than 12.0 Volts. The actual value will depend upon battery state of charge.

SECTION 6
LOAD DEFAULTS AND RECALIBRATE SYSTEM
Do the following sections, in sequence indicated below, from AMX−4 Calibration Di-
rection.
Note: To save time, you should install high voltage bleeder and set up oscilloscope for
proper triggering before you enter calibration mode.
CAUTION Observe proper radiation safety when making x−ray exposures!
1. Section 3−6: “Load Default Values”
Note: Section 3−6 must be done before calibration of any item. DO NOT LOAD DE-
FAULTS FOR ROUTINE CALIBRATION.
Note: After loading defaults, checksum errors will be displayed if you transition to top
menu level. Until AMX−4 is totally calibrated, these checksum errors will be dis-
played as a reminder that system is not fully calibrated. Simply push the mAs Y
switch to continue past each checksum message, then mAs B to enter calibration.
2. Section 3−1: “Calibrate Drive Handle”
3. Section 3−2: “Calibrate Voltmeter”
4. Section 3−3: “Calibrate Generator”
Note: To ensure exposure accuracy at high technique and low battery voltage, DO NOT
calibrate generator when battery voltage is 115 volts or greater.
Note: If there are TUBE SPITS at high kVp’s during “Calibrate Taps,” try to slow the
pace of calibration when the kVp is greater than 115 kVp. That is, wait approxi-
mately 45 seconds between exposures, and keep the unit in prep longer by allow-
ing the message “READY FOR X−RAY” to be displayed for 5 seconds before
pressing expose switch.
5. Section 3−4: “Calibrate Charger”
6. Section 3−5: “Adjust Field Light On Time”
7. Section 3−7, steps 1 through 6: “End Calibration”
Note: Step 6 of Section 3−7 of AMX−4 calibration direction requires functional

checks of calibrated items in order to ensure proper operation.
27
SECTION 7
FINAL STEPS
1. Attach the furnished battery label 46−329183P3 as shown in Illustration 19. Place it
over old battery polarity label (if present).
2. Be sure that the circuit breaker is still OFF, and reinstall all covers.
3. Perform a complete functional check of the AMX unit, including making exposures.
4. Put the AMX unit on charge for an least one hour before using.
