Figure 6-6. Functions of the MIM Delivery Interface
1. MIM Delivery Interface receives “Film Tray Status”, TimageMin, TimageMax, and Media LUT values
from the MCS.
2. Pixel data is converted to 12 bits, representing values in the range of 0 -- 4095, based on the
TimageMin, TimageMax and Media LUT values, together with user-selected values for the following
parameters: TFT Set, Contrast, Dmax, Dmin, and Polarity. The 12-bit values sent to the MCS Interface
Server are not T-Values, but LASER DIODE values that will require no additional processing.
3. MIM Delivery Interface renders the Print Job into one or more images and transfers the Image(s) to
the MCS Interface Server.
4. “Page Status” from the MCS Interface Server is used to track the success or failure of jobs delivered
to the MIM Delivery Interface.
5. “Printer Status” from the MCS Interface Server is sent back to the SCU. It also triggers starting or
stopping of image rendering in the MIM Delivery Interface.
MIM Delivery interface formats the page for image size and feed orientation, DICOM format and
orientation, and positioning of the Dpatch (if used) and the clear leading edge. It renders the image by
mapping image data to T-Values using the following information:
•
User-requested data that is received with the print job from the PACSLink software. This includes
a TFT set, a contrast table number, Dmax, Dmin, and Polarity.
•
Film cartridge data received from the MCS through the MCS Interface Server. This includes
TimageMin, TimageMax, and Media LUT.
A contrast table is selected from the TFT set and changed as follows. TFT data values are adjusted first
based on the user Dmax or the TimageMax value, whichever is lower, and user Dmin or TimageMin,
whichever value is higher. The changed values are then interpolated into a Contrast Lookup Table (LUT)
with 4096 entries (0 -- 4095), checking that the output T values are within the range of the required Dmax
and Dmin. If Reverse Polarity is requested, the LUT is reversed.
The MIM Delivery Interface applies the Media LUT to the rendered image pixels to convert the T-values to
laser values, which are sent to the MCS Interface Server. All images are in 12--bit pixels. If the images
input from PACSLink MIM are 8 or 10--bit, they are scaled to 12--bit.
