Part 6 provides maintenance procedures that must be performed
weekly
to ensure
optimal system performance. Hologic strongly recommends you follow all
maintenance instructions given in this manual.
6.1. Maintenance Reminders
The system automatically issues a reminder message whenever a required
maintenance procedure must be performed. The reminder messages are listed below.
Diagnostic tests failed
The scanner diagnostic tests failed. Each time the system starts up, the scanner
performs tests to make sure all internal systems are working properly. You cannot
scan until the scanner passes its tests. To fix the problem, power-cycle the system. See
‘
6.2. Power-Cycling the System ’. If this doesn’t resolve the problem, call Hologic
Technical Support.
Reminder: Please clean the scanner
Clean the scanner regularly in order to keep the system performing optimally. For
instructions on cleaning the scanner, see ‘
6.2. Power-Cycling the System’ .
Test Films: Needed
The system test films have not been run, are overdue, or have failed. To fix the
problem, see ‘
6.4. Running the Weekly Tests ’. (More information about individual
film tests is available on the Controls Performance page; see ‘ 5.5. Performance
Options’. )
Preventive maintenance is required
Your system is due for its quarterly preventive maintenance servicing. Call Hologic
Technical Support to schedule an appointment. In the meantime, you can continue
scanning. If the system is not serviced within 180 days, the alert will appear
continuously.
