About the densitometer for UP-DF500;
The correct density of the UPT-517BL film used in UP-
DF500 cannot be measured by X-Rite301 due to the
difference of spectroscopic characterization. In the service,
it is recommended to use the above handy densitometer.
In the practical use, UP-DF500 has the internal densitome-
ter. By performing the calibration, it is possible to control
the print density that is enough to make a diagnosis.
Therefore, it is not required to use the external densitome-
ter separately.
n
In the case that the hospital controls the density by using
X-Rite301, the filter for UPT-517BL is available.

and DICOM using FSSS.
. Implement the anti-virus patch for DICOM BOARD.
2-7-6. Confirmation
n
Before performing the calibration, ask users about the calibration status of use for confirmation. If the
unit has been operated without calibration for long period of time, the print density gradually changes,
which may give impression that the density is changed after the calibration is performed (after mainte-
nance check). In such a state, perform the calibration after explaining the function of calibration to the
user.
Item Action

2-8. Unleaded Solder
Boards requiring use of unleaded solder are printed with a lead free mark (LF) indicating the solder
contains no lead.
(Caution: Some printed circuit boards may not come printed with the lead free mark due to their particular
size.)
: LEAD FREE MARK
m
. Be sure to use the unleaded solder for the printed circuit board printed with the lead free mark.
. The unleaded solder melts at a temperature about 40 dC higher than the ordinary solder, therefore, it is
recommended to use the soldering iron having a temperature regulator.
. The ordinary soldering iron can be used but the iron tip has to be applied to the solder joint for a
slightly longer time. The printed pattern (copper foil) may peel away if the heated tip is applied for too
long, so be careful.

When the front, top, and rear doors are opened, an interlock switch functions and a printer does not
operate. Confirming the operation with the door opened improves the operation efficiency when
analyzing a trouble. To satisfy the safety standard, a strapping switch cannot be installed in an interlock
switch circuit. However, interlocking can be released by strapping the cable connected to connector CN-
6903 on the CN-2325 relay board.

SAFETY CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem,

perform the following safety checks before
releasing the set to the customer :
Check the metal trim, “metallized” knobs, screws,

and all other exposed metal parts for AC
leakage. Check leakage as described below.
LEAKAGE TEST
The AC leakage from any exposed metal part to

earth ground and from all exposed metal parts to
any exposed metal part having a return to
chassis, must not exceed 0.5 mA. Leakage
current can be measured by any one of three
methods.
1. A commercial leakage tester, such as the

Simpson 229 or RCA WT-540A. Follow the
manufacturers’ instructions to use these
instruments.
2. A battery-operated AC milliammeter. The
Data Precision 245 digital multimeter is
suitable for this job.
3. Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor
by means of a VOM or battery-operated AC
voltmeter. The “limit” indication is 0.5 V, so
analog meters must have an accurate low-
voltage scale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa
SH-63Trd are examples of a passive VOM
that is suitable. (See Fig. A)
