1 Laser Power Check


1.1 Laser Sources
The HRA2 has 3 different laser sources, as listed in the following table. All lasers are solid state lasers, which have
a significant higher life time compared to gas lasers (e.g. Argon laser). Whereas the infrared laser diodes are
implemented into the camera head, the blue FA laser radiation is coupled by means of a single mode, polarisation
maintaining fiber into the camera head. The laser power values are given in the following table for the 30° scan field
in HR and HS mode. These values refer always to a power setting of 100%. Please note, that for 20° and 15° the
power values are lower due to a smaller duty cycle (lower time ratio laser on / laser off )

Specified Laser Power Values:

HRA2 Laser Laser type Wavelength [nm] Output power at objective (av. over 10 sec.)
(colour) @ 30° HR 100% @ 30° HS 100%
FA-Laser Optically pumped 488 nm 260 – 300 µW 240 – 280 µW
Redfree Refl.-Laser solid state laser (blue)
(Coherent)
ICGA-Laser Laser diode 785 nm 2.35 – 2.65 mW 2.2 – 2.5 mW
(infrared)
IR Refl.-Laser Laser diode 820 nm < 150 µW < 150 µW
(infrared) (typ. 50 –65 µW) (typ. 45 – 60 µW)

1.2 Measurement of laser power with Ophir Powermeter

1.2.1 Ophir Powermeter


We recommend the use of the following Ophir powermeter. Only a power meter with valid calibration may be used.
The power meter can be purchased either from Heidelberg Engineering or directly from any distributor of Ophir.
• Ophir display NOVA
• Ophir sensor head PD-300
• HE-adapter for HRA 2 objective

1.3 TSE-02 power sensor for adjustment procedures

Detector head
Choice of laser with HRA 2
Scale
to be monitored adaptor

This TSE sensor is only an adjustment tool but not a powermeter. During installation the laser powers have
to be checked with a calibrated Ophir power meter!
The adjustment is used in the adjustment process after reinsertion of the fiber into the 4 axis manipulator during the
setup of the system. In this case the use of the TSE-02 is advantageous, as the display is slow enough to average the
power fluctuations due to the laser modulation.
Procedure:
Place detector head on the objective
Switch the TSE-02 knob to FA.
Operate the HRA 2 at 30°, HS in either FA or RF mode.
Adjust the Kinematics four axis manipulator according to the short or detailed adjustment instructions (v.i.)
so that the scale reading reaches its maximum. (As a rule of thumb for a correctly installed fiber the reading
should be in between 4.5 and 6 scale units.)

1.4 Beampath of blue laser, AOM

When the modulation is disabled (e.g. by disconnecting the RF-power from the AOM drive, all laser power is
transmitting the AOM crystal (acousto-optical modulator) without being deflected. This beam is called 0. order
beam.
However, when the modulation is activated, the blue laser beam is split in several beams. The beam next to the 0.
order beam (left side) is the 1. rder beam and is coupled into the single mode fiber.

1.5 Laser to Fiber Coupler


The laser power is coupled by means of a four axis manipulator into the polarisation maintaining singlemode fiber.
The fiber is fixed with respect to the focussing lens. Therefore a tilt of the coupling cylinder corresponds to a
translation of the focus spot on the fiber surface.

1.6 Realignment of Sapphire Fiber Coupling


There are two different versions of 4 axis manipulators integrated in HRA2: Kinematix-P (old version, systems with
SN < xxx ) and Kinematix-MKII-N (new version). The alignment procedure differs slightly and therefore is given in
the following for both versions. The important difference is, that in the old version kinematix the loading tension
needs to be controlled during alignment procedure, which is not the case for the new version.
In case the laser output power in FA / redfree Refl. mode is too low, the alignment of the fibre input coupler has to
be readjusted and optimised (short procedure). If no blue light at all is visible at the objective, the complete
procedure starting with the prealignment tool has to be accomplished. Please note: for the alignment procedure the
TSE power sensor is extremely helpful, as the display is slow enough to average the laser power fluctuations due to
laser modulation.
Alignment procedure in detail:

Old version (Kinematix-P) New Version (inematix-MKII-N)

2 Check scanner amplitudes (field size)


2.1 Check with calibration target
For the measurement of the scan angles a special scale target is required. This target is available from Heidelberg
Engineering. Please proceed as follows:
• Set the camera to high positive diopters (e.g. +30 diopters). In order to have access to the
intermediate image plane, open the telescope by carefully squeezing one of the rings to split the
telescope.

Scan field aperture Scale target mounted


on scan field aperture

• Place the scale target on the scan field aperture tubus. Make sure, that the scale is oriented
horizontally resp. vertically.
• Switch to Live mode, IR Refl. and make sure, that the filter is set to angiography mode. The IR
laser power has to be set to typically 4%, otherwise the image is overexposed. This can be done either
by switching the Touch Panel into Service mode (red background) or by opening one of the start-up
windows in the HeScript software.
• As the scan field aperture is exactly positioned in the intermediate plane, the scale itself can be
positioned only 1 mm in front of the intermediate plane. Thus the image is not sharp. Therefore set the
Z-module to the position, where the best image of the scale is obtained. For example, if the home
position of the Z-module is at 240 steps, you should see the sharpest image of the scale at about 230
steps. This can be done either in the service panel, which is opened by pressing Ctrl & Alt & Shift &D
within the HRA 2 acquisition module or by opening the Z-module procedure in the HeScript startup
menu.
• Measure the scan field size. It is convenient for the measurements to activate to the extended
service live image mode in the service panel, where the scan field is limited on top, left and right side
by green lines. The specified values are listed in the following table.

Please note:
a.) The scan field in horizontal direction does not need to be checked as the scan amplitude for 20° and 15° is
identical to the scan amplitude at 30°. The 20° and 15° images are just cropped in X-direction.
b.) At 20° and 15° there is some difference between horizontal size (X-direction) of live mode images and
saved images. The reason for this is, that the sinus correction is not done in live mode, but only when the
images are stored. Of course the size of the saved images correspond to the specified image sizes of 20°
resp. 15°.

2.2 Quick check without calibration target


For the acquisition modul software version 1.3 and higher, there is an easy way for checking the
scan angles of the unit. The software computes the scan angles from the margins of an
implemented field aperture, which is positioned in the intermediate plane of the optics.

Please follow the procedure:


• Set camera to live mode
• Select IR reflection mode
• Open debug window (Ctrl
Alt Shift D)
• Activate large size mode
(Service Mode Live image)
• The actual scan angles are
displayed in the window:
here:
Y-angle: 30.11°
X-angle: 30.49°

3 Open the camera head


If the camera housing has to be removed for service purpose, please proceed as follows:
• Remove the filter wheel handle. Please note: there are two versions of filter wheel
handle:
Old version: handle clamped on filter wheel axis. Just pull out the handle!
New version: handle screwed on the filter whhel axis (M2.5). Remove cover cap and
then unscrew the handle.

old version new version with cover cap

• Move the camera as far as possible towards positive diopters (max. distance between
objective arm and camera body) in order to have access to the 3 allen screws! Remove
the three screws (wrench size 3.0)!
• Remove the refraction knob (allen set screw, wrench size 1.5)
• Remove the two allen screws (wrench size 2.0) on the left side (patients view). These
screws ensure thermal contact of the final amplifier stages of the scanner drivers to the
housing. Thermal contact is very important to remove the heat from inside the camera,
i.e. the camera housing acts as heat sink for the whole camera.
• Remove the allen screw on the backside of the camera (wrench size 3.0)!
• Push the housing carefully backwards until you can remove it completely. Disconnect
the ground cable inside the housing.

5 Adjustment of pinhole- and laser-mirrors


Please note: It is very unlikely, that the following calibration is required, as the alignment of the optics is very
stable.

mirror
FA-laser

IR-Laser

ICG-Laser

pinhole

90° deflection
mirror

For the adjustment of the turning mirrors again access to the optical intermediate plane is required. Therefore the
telescope needs to be disconnected as described in the previous section. A homogeneous, fluorescent target is
required for the alignment procedure of pinhole focussing and laser sources. Position the target on the scan field
aperture and move the stepper of Z-module in order to obtain sharp images on the screen. Open the service panel
with the hot key Ctrl & Alt & Shift & D for access to the stepper motor. The adjustment is done in order to achieve
a brightest possible image. However, at the same time the brightness distribution should be homogeneous and
circular symmetric. When activating in the service panel the extended service image mode a histogram of the
brightness distribution and a mean value of the gray values is displayed.
HRA 2 Service Manual
Art.Nr. 96 040-002 Page20 of 59 TC01_HRA2 Service Manual.doc

The following procedure has to be accomplished:


• Adjust the pinhole-mirror for optimum in FA mode (left upper image)
• Adjust the ICG-laser mirror in ICG-mode with filter position in reflection mode. Therefore the
touch panel has to be set to service mode. In order to avoid overexposure, the laser intensity has to
be reduced to < 5 %.
• Adjust the IR-laser mirror in IR-Refl. Mode. Therefore again the laser power needs to be reduced
to about < 5%.

6.2 Adjusting the friction of the tilt movement of camera head


The friction of the tilt movement can be increased (or decreased) by modifying the preload tension of a pressure
spring. The tension is increased (resp. decreased) by tightening (resp. releasing) a set screw as shown in the image
below. In case the friction is not sufficient although the set screw is completely screwed in, Heidelberg Engineering
will provide a spring with higher tension.

Double-click on the procedure “Adjusting scanner amplitudes”. The following dialog will appear:

The z-stepper control (1) allows to move the internal z-module step by step. The refractive power corresponding to
the current z-module position is displayed in diopters. Note that this module directly accesses the z-module while
bypassing upper firmware layers. Therefore it is necessary to perform a z-module reset before resuming to
normal system operation if the stepper position was changed manually.

The second control (2) allows a simple stepper random walk test. The first entry is the number of stepper
movements to be performed, the second entry determines the maximum number of steps of a single stepper move.

Art.Nr. 96 040-002 Page41 of 59 TC01_HRA2 Service Manual.doc

7.12.1 Excursus: Blue Laser Start-up Behaviour


Settings 5 to 7 are necessary because of the blue laser start-up behaviour. When a laser mode comprising the blue
laser is selected, the laser is switched on by a dedicated signal.
If at the same time the nominal blue laser power is set to 100% and the AMO is switched to allow laser
transmission, an interlock might be caused by an overshoot of the laser control loop. This is illustrated in the next
chart:

Live Freeze INTERLOCK Live

Safety Limit

100%

75%

50%

Blue Laser Power


Power Potentiometer Setting
AOM Transmission
25%

0%

Time

To prevent this, three parameters can be changed:


• The setting of the potentiometer that controls the nominal laser power when the laser is not selected. (5)
• The time after laser selection when the nominal power is set to 100%. Together with an “off” nominal
power setting higher than 0% this delay can prevent an overshoot most of the time because the laser control
loop now sees two smaller steps in nominal power rather than a single big step. (6)
• Additionally the “opening” of the acousto-optical modulator can be delayed by a fixed amount of time. No
laser power overshoot can therefore reach the camera. (7)

7.14 Service Mode


For service and troubleshooting of the HRA 2 system it might be required to temporarily ignore errors or security
interlocks in case of technical problems. To do this, start the HeScript application as described above and click on
the “Startup” menu:

As soon as you enable the “Service mode ON” checkmark, the system will enter the service mode and will show up
the following behaviour:
1. A detected “Scanner-Interlock” or “Laser-Interlock” will be ignored by the HRA 2 firmware, but it will not
be ignored be the blue laser in the power supply. In this case, the laser light will go off, but the system does
not go to its interlock state.
2. A detected “MCU-Interlock” will be ignored by the HRA 2 firmware. In this case, the blue laser will not be
affected and stays on.
3. Any interlock detected will be shown as warning message only (yellow colour) in the PC acquisition
module status bar.
4. Image acquisition is disabled as long as service mode is on.
5. The background of the acquisition module dialog is shown in pink
6. The LCD display on the Power Supply will periodically show the message “SERVICE MODE, DO NOT
USE THE SYSTEM!”
7. Power supply and camera are periodically sending debug messages (see “Service Panel” in chapter “PC
Acquisition module” for more information on debug messages).

VERY IMPORTANT:
NEVER EXPOSE A PATIENT TO THE LASER BEAM WHILE “SERVICE MODE” IS ACTIVE
BECAUSE OF THE REDUCED SECURITY LEVEL!

8 PC Acquisition Module / Service Panel


8.1 Behaviour in Service Mode
If the HRA 2 system is in “Service Mode” (see chapter “HeScript” for more information on “Service-Mode”), the
background of the acquisition module dialog will be shown in pink colour:

VERY IMPORTANT:
NEVER EXPOSE THE PATIENT TO THE LASER BEAM WHILE “SERVICE MODE” IS ACTIVE!
The behaviour of the acquisition module differs in the following aspects from its normal operation:
1. Image acquisition is disabled.
2. Interlocks errors are shown in Yellow colour and are shown only temporarily in the status bar

Art.Nr. 96 040-002 Page46 of 59 TC01_HRA2 Service Manual.doc

8.2 Service Panel


For remote debugging at customer side, a special tool is build into the acquisition module.
Note: None of the settings made within the “Service Panel” will neither result in permanent changes of the
system nor will affect the security of the system. A restart of the PC Acquisition module and power OFF / ON
of the HRA 2 system will restore all settings. Thus it is save and allowed for the end user to open up this
window in case of a technical problem.

To open up the service panel press the following keys simultaneously: Ctrl & Alt & Shift % D. The following
dialog will appear on the screen:

The “Service Panel” dialog includes the following parts:


1. Displays the histogram of the live image of pixels in the image, where the laser is on (only available if
“Service Mode Live Images” is enabled, see 3.)
2. Displays the histogram of the live image of pixels in the image, where the laser is off (only available if
“Service Mode Live Images” is enabled, see 3.)
3. Enables the so called “Service Mode Live Images”. At the top, left and right side will be shown an
additional part of the live image. On the left and right side is the target which is used to measure the
scanner amplitudes.
4. The shift between odd and even lines will be displayed in this control and can be changed manually. If
required, it is possible to disable the automatic shift detection and correction of the acquisition module.
5. The sensitivity of the detector in the camera head can be changed also by using this control. Changes on the
sensitivity wheel on the touch screen panel will change this value, too.
6. Z-Module control. If required, the position of the Z-Module can be changed manually. Please note, that
this affects the optical refraction of the system.
7. The gain and offset of the build in digitizer can be changed in this control. A gain factor for 0.75 is default.
8. In case of technical problems, it might be important to switch on the report of debug messages. If
debugging is switched on (see also 9. and 10.), all debug messages will be added to this text window. If
required, the content of this text window can be saved to a report file. Click on the “Save” button to save
the content to file “C:\HRA2LOG.TXT”.
9. Allows to set the debug levels. Only messages of the specified level will be appended to the debug message
screen (8). Click on “Start” to start debugging on the specified debug level.
HRA 2 Service Manual

11 Safety Interlocks
General errors/warnings are reported via HECOM and shown in the PC status bar. There are 4 severity levels:
• Information
• Warning A system parameter is near its limits
• Error An irregular system state is detected
--> System may go to freeze mode
• Severe Error A safety relevant error is detected
--> Safety interlock
Safety relevant errors are additionally reported via the interlock lines. When a security interlock is reached, the
system cannot be used any more before it is switched off and on again.
A Safety Interlock has the following consequences:

Camera
• The current laser mode can’t be changed any more. In particular it is no longer possible to switch to freeze
mode
• The internal fixation target can’t be changed any more
• The fixation targets in all four corners are blinking
• All lasers are switched off
Note: If an Interlock occurs during a live mode, the Scanners will not be switched off (the system state is safer
with the scanners moving)!

Power supply
• The blue laser supply voltage will be switched off (The “L” on the LCD display changes to “-”)
• One of three interlock types will be displayed:
o LASER INTERLOCK Blue laser power was too high either when the laser was modulated or
modulated off
o SCANNER INTERLOCK One of the scanners does not work properly
o MCU INTERLOCK One micro controller has detected an irregular internal state. This type
is overruled by laser or scanner interlock.
• The last internal (left side) and external interlock number will be displayed

Touch Panel
• The freeze screen is shown. A red on/off button and a textual warning indicate the interlock state. The
panel is locked.

PC Acquisition Module
• A list of interlock numbers is shown. Note that consecutive faults may be included.
