Before Using the Digital Capture Unit About the Hard Disk Compared to a floppy disk, a hard disk has a greater memory capacity and needs less time to write or read data. However, dust and vibrations affect a hard disk’s performance. Furthermore, the same as for a floppy disk, a hard disk should never be placed near magnetic fields. Hard disks contain built-in safety mechanisms to protect data against dust and vibrations. However, to avoid losing data, you should take the following precautions. • Do not use the hard disk in areas prone to vibrations or on unstable surfaces. • Do not move the hard disk while it is on. • Do not turn the power off while the hard disk is performing an operation. • Do not use the hard disk in areas prone to sudden temperature fluctuations (i.e. more than 10 ºC). Note that if the hard disk is damaged, data may not be recoverable. Do not forget to back up the data on the hard disk. Make sure to back up images saved on the hard disk of the UPA-P100MD on a regular basis. Sony denies any responsibility if data saved on the hard disk becomes unrecoverable. Make sure that the power cord and other connectors are properly connected. Improperly connected power cord or connectors constitute a risk of fire or electric shock.

About the rear connectors Confirm that the cable connectors you are using can be inserted into the terminal outside of the molding. Also note that the screw posts next to the D-sub connectors on the rear panel of the unit are threaded in inches. When using cables other that the one provided for use with this unit, make sure that you use inch-threaded screws.

About the CD-R Operation and Storage Precautions When using the CD-R drive to write information on discs, please pay attention to the following: • Do not use or store the drive where it might be subjected to vibrations or shocks. • Do not use or store the drive in hot or humid locations, or direct sunlight. • When writing data on a disc, do not turn the Digital Capture Unit off or push the Eject button of the CD-R drive.

Avoiding Condensation Problems As much as possible, avoid areas prone to sudden temperature changes. Do not attempt to use the drive immediately after moving it from a cold to a warm location or raising the room temperature suddenly, as condensation can form within the drive. If the temperature changes suddenly while you are using the drive, stop using it but keep the power on for at least an hour.

Handling Discs • Handle discs only by the edges as illustrated below. Never touch the recording surface.

• Do not write (except with a felt-tip marker) or affix labels to discs.

• Do not store discs in dusty, dirty, or humid locations, in direct sunlight, or near heat-generating devices. • Avoid spilling liquid on discs. • To protect important data, always keep discs in their protective case.

Do not connect the RM-P110 to the UPA-P100MD when it is on. Please make sure that the UPA-P100MD is off before connecting the RM-P110. Connecting the RM-P110 to the UPA-P100MD when it is on could cause it to malfunction.

Features Built-in CD-R The built in CD-R drive of the Digital Capture Unit allows you to save images to CD-R discs. Using the Digital Capture Unit’s configuration screen, you can choose to write images to CD-R discs using either single-session or multi-session recording.

Remote Control Unit The remote control allows one-touch control of the unit. With its standard 80-character display, its 8 function keys, and uppercase and lowercase typing capabilities, the remote control unit is versatile and easy to use.

Linux Operating System The flexibility of the Linux operating system does not require long shutdown and start-up procedures. This means that you can turn the unit on or off as you like, except when writing information on a CD-R disc or the hard disk.

Networking Capabilities Although the Digital Capture Unit is connected to a single computer during setup, it can also be configured for use through a local area network (LAN). This is highly useful when it is necessary for several users to share view images on the unit’s hard disk. However, you can only control image capture and recording with the remote control unit or a custom-made control unit, not through the network.

Direct Printout Capabilities Connecting a digital color printer such as the UP-D50 or UP-D70XR to the Digital Capture Unit allows images to be printed directly from the Digital Capture Unit.

The Configuration Screen

The UPA-P100MD configuration screen contains settings that control how the unit operates. These settings are explained below. The procedure for accessing the configuration screen is explained in “Configuring the UPA-P100MD”.

•

• Type the name of the hospital, clinic, or department associated with the Digital Capture Unit. This area can be composed of a maximum of 7 alphanumerical characters. When capturing images, this name automatically becomes part of the file name saved on the hard disk, therefore a short name is preferable. When consulting your files, it makes it easier to determine their origin.

This setting needs to be adjusted according to the type of incoming video signal, PAL or NTSC. This usually depends on the country in which the device is used. • This setting needs to be adjusted according to the type of incoming video signal. Color saves images as 24-bit color images, whereas Mono saves images as 8-bit black-and-white images.

Note

You can only use alphanumerical characters (upper and lowercase) and hyphens with the UPA-P100MD. All other characters are rejected, including spaces. In the configuration screen, an error message appears to tell you so when you click [Save Config] to inform you if there are illegal characters in use or a name exceeds the maximum permitted length.

• Be sure to select this box when you use the RM-P110 Remote Control Unit and want to input your patient, doctor, and procedure names. When you clear [Remote Control Unit Support], the unit assigns names automatically.

16

•

• Be sure to select this box when you want to write information to a CD-R disc. It is possible to select either [Single session] or [Multi session]. When you select [Single session], you can only write the images taken for one patient on a CD-R disc.

Type the number of days after which the files and folders saved on the unit’s hard disk are deleted. The maximum number of days you can set is 60. For examples, if you type 10 days in this box, all the files and folders on the Digital Capture Unit hard disk are deleted after 10 days. Users that save large numbers of images every day should be careful of the number of days that they set here. It should be set so that there are never more than 5000 images on the unit’s hard disk at any one time. In other words, 5000/ (images saved per day)=maximum safe number of days that you can set for [Expiration Time]. If you allow too many images to accumulate on the unit’s hard disk, it will become full and further image capture with the Digital Capture Unit will be impossible. By default, this is 14 days.

Patient 1-Grab 2-Print 3-Burn 0-Exit Tue Jul 31 17:30

When you finish an examination (that is, when you press [0] on the remote control keyboard), the disc can no longer be used to write further information. When you select [Multi session], images are written to CD-R disc, but when you finish an examination, the CD-R disc remains open for additional recording sessions. In other words, you can record several sessions consecutively (each in a different folder) for several different patients on the same CD-R disc.

Warning

Be careful of the value you specify here. When you modify this setting and click [Save Config], the UPAP100MD deletes images older than the expiration time. If the expiration time is set to a value lower than the age of images that you need to keep, you will lose those images.

• Be sure to select this box when using a UP-D50 or UP-D70XR digital video printer. Leave it clear otherwise. (The Digital Capture Unit starts faster when this box is not selected.) This setting also determines the layout of the images on one page when printing. The UP-D50 and UP-D70XR default SCSI settings are: • Terminator: on • ID: 001 Refer to the appropriate printer user's guide for details.

Note

Be sure to back up the image files on the hard disk of the UPA-P100MD before reaching the [Expiration Time]. See “Managing UPA-P100MD Hard Disk Space” for details. • Specify whether you want the doctor’s name to be requested every time you begin a new procedure ([Always ask]), never requested ([Never ask]), or that the system use the default doctor name ([Use default]).

• Specify a valid IP address in this box. Warning

If in doubt as to what IP, subnet mask, or gateway address to specify, ask your system administrator.

• Type the default doctor name to be used by the system here. The default doctor name can be composed of up to 18 alphanumerical characters.

• Specify the subnet mask address of your network here. • If necessary, specify a gateway address here.

• Specify whether you want the procedure name to be requested every time you begin a new procedure ([Always ask]), never requested ([Never ask]), or that the system use the default procedure name ([Use default]).

17

•

• Type the default procedure name to be used by the system here. The default procedure name can be composed of up to 10 alphanumerical characters.

Enter the minimum length of time during which the switch of an external control unit connected to the UPA-P100MD parallel port must be depressed. The shorter the time set here, the faster the key response. By default, this is 30.

Note

• To prevent the names of the image files on the UPA-P100MD from being truncated when you view them in the browser file list, use a short default doctor name and procedure name. • Also note that when you specify a default doctor name and/or default procedure name, and select [Use default], the default names appear on the RMP110 Remote Control Unit display, where you can modify them if necessary. If you do not need to make any modifications, simply press the [ENT] key to proceed. See “Grabbing Images” for details about entering names using the remote control.

• Click this button to save the changes that you make in the configuration screen. The device restarts automatically when you click [Save Config]. Note

To access the configuration screen once more, you need to type the address specified in the [IP Address] box (i.e. http://network IP address/) in the [Address] box of you Internet browser, click [Configuration], then click [Refresh]. Do not click [Back] on your browser.

• You need to select the local time zone here. Select the time zone in your area from the list. • Set the date and time in these boxes.

• Click this button to cancel all the changes that you've made in the configuration screen. The configuration screen settings return to those at the time of opening the configuration screen.

• After setting the date and time, be sure to select this box. Otherwise, the new settings are not applied when you click [Save Config]. • Select the language that you want to use for the remote control display. You can choose one of 12 languages from the list as the display language. By default, this language is English. Also, note that the configuration screen language is not affected by this setting. • Be sure to select this check box when you want to capture images from an analog printer synchronized with the UPA-P100MD. The capture of images is delayed by the time specified in the [Delay value (in milliseconds)] box. By default, this is 250. • In this box, enter the delay capture time in milliseconds. By default, this is 250.
