Running ICW Installation mode

The Installation and Calibration Wizard provides an interface to navigate through required system procedures, checks and calibrations.

Prerequisites

Personnel requirements
Required persons Preliminary requirements Procedure Finalization
1 - Varies -
Required conditions
Make sure all customer-purchased options are installed before running ICW. Any options added after running ICW will not be displayed.
A service key is required to launch the Installation and Calibration Wizard.

Figure 1. ICW Install mode screen



  • The left pane lists all tasks required to complete the installation.
  • Tasks must generally be completed in order, from top to bottom (tasks with prerequisites are grayed out until all prerequisites are completed). Non-grayed out tasks may be completed in any order or in parallel.
  • After a task is completed, click Check Status in the right pane. Completed tasks turn blue; failed tasks turn red.
  • ICW remains in installation mode until all tasks are successfully completed.
note:
When running ICW, the calibration tools are launched and finalized from within the ICW interface.

Figure 2. ICW calibration tool interface

When running these tools within ICW, some of the finalization tasks such as Doing a TPS reset or Saving information will be automatically completed by ICW.

Procedure

  1. Before opening ICW for the first time, make sure all options purchased by the customer are installed.
    note:

    The option key check is only done the first time the tool is used. Any change to the option key status after ICW has started will not be displayed.

  2. From the Common Service Desktop select Calibrations > Installation and Calibration Wizard.
  3. Use the following tables as a reference to identify what tasks are needed to complete each procedure within ICW.
    note: Relaunching a completed task in ICW displays a dialog showing prerequisite tasks. You may want to rerun the prerequisites listed before rerunning the selected task.

    Procedure Tasks
    Power On Sequencing Acknowledge that the following tasks have been completed:

    See Power On Sequencing.

    Software Setup
    note: If the system is staged with enhanced GOC, do not load software.

    Load host system software (if required).

    Answer the following questions on the screen and submit:

    • Has the GOC come with software pre-loaded? (Yes/No)
    • Does the system have the latest service pack software loaded? (Installing Service Packs)
    • Have you loaded the customer Operator's Manual? (Loading Operator Documentation)
    • Make sure the system parameters (hardware and software) are correct so that the information can be verified in About MR Scanner.
    • Have you rebooted the system?
    See Checking off ICW Software Setup items.
    About MR Scanner

    Display Scanner Information.

    See Running the About MR Scanner tool.
    Dock/Table Anchor
    See Dock Adjustments.
    • Is dock anchor installation compliance with Preinstallation Manual (PIM) checked (two-part anchor, allowing dock to slide forward without being lifted)?
    • Is dock centering completed?
    Magnet Ramping and Shimming
    Refer to the applicable Magnet and Cryogens subsystem manual for the specific procedures required for these items.
    • Checking off ICW Magnet Ramping items
    • Magnet pre-ramp requirements completed: Ramping Magnet to Field
    • Magnet rundown unit functional check completed: Magnet Rundown Unit (MRU) Checks
    • Magnet ramping completed: Ramping Magnet to Field
    • Magnet shimming prerequisites completed
    • Initial shim current installation complete
    • Passive shim completed: Shimming
    Table Installation/Adjustments
    note: All adjustments are iterative. If one adjustment is made, make sure that other adjustments have not been compromised. Measurements must be entered in the ICW dialog.

    See Patient Handling Adjustments.

    With the release of DV25, actual measurements must be entered in the ICW dialog. Click on the Help option to the right of the task to bring up the associated service documentation.

    • Follow the table adjustment process as it is presented in the ICW dialog. Enter measurement data where it applies. Click on the Help option to the right of the task to bring up the associated service documentation.
    • For systems with multiple tables: Is Dual Table Alignment completed?
    Peripherals Setup
    • Body coil air flow functional checks completed: Body Coil Air Flow Functional Check
    • Laser light aligned: Laser Light Alignment
    • In-room monitor and software installed
      note:

      In-room monitor is an option. If no in-room monitor is installed, this check box must still be checked to complete the step.

    Coil SNR Tests/MCQA
    • For each coil the customer has purchased, perform necessary installation steps and run the appropriate SNR or MCQA test. See 1.5T Coil Vendor Manuals for the test procedures.
    • Confirm that each coil the customer has purchased has been plugged into the scanner at least once.
    note: When building a protocol, only commonly purchased coils are shown by default. When a coil is plugged in for the first time, the system automatically shows the coil. If the customer wants to hide one of the commonly purchased coils because they did not purchase the coil, use the “hide” coil function available in the Coil Packages tab of Coil Database Explorer.
    PAC Checks
    • Peripheral pulse probe checked
    • ECG leads checked
    • Respiratory compensation checked

    See ICW PAC Checks.
