Chapter1- Functional Description
This functional description is divided into four sections representing each of the four boards. The reader
should also reference the block diagram and wiring diagram when studying this section.

1.1 Control Board

The Intel 80C188EC microcontroller is an enhanced X86 processor with many on-board peripheral features,
such as a interrupt controller, DMA controller, peripheral chip select driver, programmable timers, etc. A
programmable timer is used fo control the heaters. The input fo this timer is line frequency. This allows the
control signal to be synchronized with the line frequency to better control the zero-crossing solid state relays.
The on-board interrupt controller has several interrupts: analog-to-digital converter (ADC) conversion ready
signal, overtemperature comparator output, watchdog output, power fail signal, and module interrupt signal
from the system data bus. The microcontroller external bus is a multiplexed address and data bus.

The system memory consists of a programmable read-only memory (PROM) and static random access
memory (SRAM). The EEPROM is used for calibration values and infrequently changing variables. This
memory holds the data even after power is turned off.

The RS-485 integrated circuit converts the RS-232 TTL signals from the microcontroller to RS-485 signals for
the bus. This bus is the main communications bus from the control board to all other boards with processors.

There are two isolation transceivers used to isolate the circuits powered by +5V and the circuits powered by
+5VSTBY (battery backup). r

The board contains a 16 channel multiplexer. There are seven temperature measurement channels. These
channels measure the two patient probes with two thermistors each, the two air temperature thermistors used
for display and control, and an additional thermistor used to measure the heat sink temperature.
Additional channels include the humidity sensor (RHIN), LINE COMP, 5 Volts, Motor current, Vihref, VDAC,
and 1.2Vind.

Attached to the environmental probe connection is the relative humidity signal conditioning circuitry. The 1V
reference that is used for the analog circuitry is also the maximum input voltage and the offset voltage for the
ADC. This yields a purely ratiometric system.

The overtemperature circuit compares the air temperature to a reference level, generates an interrupt, and
turns off the heat if the air temperature is higher than the reference level. Since the thermistor measurements
are digitally calibrated, the circuit must allow for various voltage levels for overtemperature thresholds.

The watchdog function is housed in a RISC processor. The watchdog circuitry is independent of the 800188
controller. The audio function is also programmed into the RISC processor. The audio circuit includes a 8752
microcontroller that reads a wavetable located ina PROM and sends the table to a digital audio circuit and
amplifier. The high priority (HP) and other alarm signal lines select an output at the correct frequencies.
Three OR gates are combined to generate the error signal. The inputs to the circuit are overtemperature,
power failure, and system failure. This circuit generates an error signal that turns off the heater and sounds the
HP alarm. This circuit is independent of the microcontroller.

Chapter1- Functional Description
1.2 Relay Board
The relay board contains the circuitry to drive the two solid state relays and the safety relay circuits. The
control signal for these functions is generated on the Control Board.

There is a current sense circuit for the bed heater and an additional one for the humidifier heater. These
circuits consist of a smail signal transformer that produces a current proportional to the current through the
heater circuits. The current is rectified and measured. The subsequent comparator then generates a digital
level based on a specified current level. This results in a signal representing the state of the heater (on or off).

The line compensation circuit consists of a signal transformer connected to the mains voltage. The secondary
of this transformer feeds a full wave rectifier and a capacitor. The resulting DC voltage is proportional to mains
voltage, and is measured on the control board.

The line frequency circuit consists of a half wave rectifier and a comparator. This circuit generates a digital
pulse synchronized with the line frequency (50 or 60 Hz).

The battery backup circuitry is connected to the +12V line. The 5V regulator generates the +5V standby from
either the +12V or the battery voltage, whichever is larger. If there is no mains power, 12 volts is not present,
and the battery will generate the +5V standby. When 12V is present, the battery is biased out of the circuit
with the diode and is merely being trickle charged.

The motor driver circuit turns the DC motor coils in the incubator fan motorron and off based on feedback from
the hall effect position sensors. This integrated circuit can also vary the speed and brake the motor based on
input signals from the control board.

The elevating base circuit consists of a series of relays that apply voltage to the elevating base motor. The e-
base motor is always driven at 24-32 volts.

The airflow sensor consists of an opto-coupler that outputs a clocking pulse proportional to the fan movement.
The signal is AC coupled to eliminate offset voltages and drifts. The resulting pulse is half wave rectified and
stored in a capacitor to yield a DC voltage proportional to the fan speed. If the fan stops or there is no fan, this
DC voltage becomes zero.

1.3 Display Driver Board / EL Display


The Display Driver board contains the same Intel microcontroller as the Control board. The processor on the
display board is used to control the EL display contents and monitor user inputs received from the membrane
switch panel and rotary encoder knob.
There are two groups of digital inputs: membrane switch panel and rotary encoder knob. The membrane
switches are pulled high; pressing the switch grounds the input. The encoder also has a switch, and two
optically isolated lines that pulse out of phase with each other. The number of pulses represents the number of
steps the knob rotates. The phase of the pulses represents the direction of the knob rotation.

The display board system memory consists of a programmable read-only memory (PROM) and static random
access memory (SRAM).

The RS-485 integrated circuit converts the RS-232 TTL signals from the microcontroller to RS-485 signals for
the bus.

The timekeeping RAM has a battery integrated into the chip so that the time and date are kept current even
with the power off. The battery has a minimum life of 10 years.

The graphics controller is an S-MOS VGA controller. The graphics controller interfaces the data from the video
RAM to the EL display. The controller also synchronizes the display using a horizontal pulse (LP) anda
vertical pulse for the whole display frame (YD). The controller handshakes with the 80C188 using the READY
line to eliminate any lost data during display refreshes.

6600-0356-000 08/15/01 1-3


Chapter 1- Functional Description
1.4 LED Board
The LED Board contains five display banks and two display drivers. One of the display drivers controls the
patient temperature and air temperature display banks. The other driver controls the patient set temperature,
air set temperature, and the mode and override indicators.

This allows the two large displays (patient and air temperature) to be multiplexed at a slower rate than the
other LEDs. This results in brighter large displays. Each driver has a brightness potentiometer that is preset
at the factory and should not be adjusted in the field.

1.5 Power Supply


The universal input switching power supply converts the line voltage to +5V DC and +12V DC. This supply can
source up to 75 watts. The 5 volts powers the electronics and the 12 volts is used by the EL display and for
future boards.

1.6 Peripheral Components


There are several peripheral components.

The toroidal transformer bucks the line voltage to the range of the elevating base system.

The solid state relay mounted inside the electronics enclosure is used to control the bed heaters.

Note: If Only performing line voltage calibration, follow instuctions in next section, 3.4.

Important: Be sure to perform System Calibration after replacing a control board.

1. Turn power off.

2. Remove electrical enclosure back panel.

Unplug the temperature sensors from J1, J4 and J2 on the control board.

Move jumper JP1 to the CAL MODE position on the control board (see Figure 3-1 on next page). Be sure
io orient the jumper correctly so pins 5-6 and 7-8 are shorted.

Turn power on. After running the power-up testing INITIALIZING will be displayed and dots will move
across the top of the screen.

After about 90 seconds CALIBRATION MODE, Enter “VREF”, and Enter “Mains” will be displayed.

Using a 4 % digit DVM (capable of measuring to 0.1 millivolt) measure VREF at TP1, pins 1 and 6 (pin 6 is
ground) on the control board. Measure to the nearest 0.1 millivolt.

Dial in VREF using the control knob. Press the knob to enter the value.

Measure the Mains Voltage at the AC connectors at the bottom of the electronics enclosure cover.

10. Dial in the Mains voltage using the control knob. Press the knob to enter the value.

11. After a few seconds the dots will stop moving across the screen and DONE will appear on the top right of
the display. Do not shut off the unit until the DONE message is displayed or the new calibration values will
not be stored.

If the message “Mains voltage calibration failed. Please enter the mains voltage again” appears this
indicates the dialed in line voltage is 20% different than the measured value (not the nominal value).

Chapter 3- Calibration and Maintenance
3.5 Humidifier Calibration
Important: Be sure to re-calibrate the humidifier whenever either the sensor or the control board is
replaced.

Important: |n order for the water in the calibration bottle to be completely saturated, most of the salt
should not be dissolved. There should be as little standing water above the salt line as possible to mini-
mize the response time. The salt in the calibration bottle may only be used for a period of one year after it's
initial mix with water then the kit should be discarded.

Take the cap off the humidity calibration bottle and add one half cap full of distilled water to the bottle,
Shake the bottle to thoroughly mix the salt and water solution. Place the elbow on the bottle. The smaller
end goes over the bottle.

Slide the elbow over the humidity sensor (mounted on the back wall) until it stops.

Hold the override key while powering up to enter the service screen.

On the second service screen, select Cal RH. The screen will prompt “Push knob when RH reading is
stable.” Wait for 20 minutes or until the RH display stabilizes (does not change by more than 1% in 5
minutes).

You have the option to select STABLE, SET TO DEFAULT or EXIT. STABLE initiates calibration. SET TO
DEFAULT resets calibration values back to factory default settings. If you started calibration by mistake
(without the calibration bottle in place, for example) you would select SET TO DEFAULT and then calibrate
the unit. lf you have entered the calibration routine by mistake, select EXIT to leave without initiating
calibration

If “RH Sensor Calibration Completed.” is displayed the calibration is complete. Depress the knob to exit
the Cal RH routine.

If "RH Sensor Calibration Failed. Try Again.” is displayed verify your setup and press the knob to try the
calibration again.

3.7 Leakage Current


Use approved equipment and techniques to test the units leakage current and ground continuity. Follow the
directions supplied by the test equipment manufacturer to verify the following:

1. Less than 300 microamperes measured at any exposed metal surface for equipment rated at 120 Vac, 50/
60 Hz.

2. Less than 500 microamperes measured at any exposed metal surface for equipment rated at 220 Vac, 50/
60 Hz or 240 Vac, 50/60 Hz.

3.8 Ground Resistance Check


Use a electrical safety analyzer to measure the resistance between the ground pin on the line cord plug and
exposed metal of the electronic enclosure. The ground resistance must be less than 0.2 ohms.

4.5 Additional Troubleshooting Tips


Following are tips on taking many of the measurements and diagnosing the failures that are réferred to in the
troubleshooting charts.

INCUBATOR AIR HEATER AND THERMOSTAT

There are two separate incubator heaters. They are connected in parallel for 115 volt operation and in series
for 230 volt operation. Measure between the black wire on the incubator SSR and J49 pin 2 on the relay board.

The resistance of each heater is about 48 ohms so it should measure about 24 ohms for 115 units, 96 ohms
for 230 units. The heater and t'stat are in series so if the reading is open circuit you must determine which is
defective.

POWER SUPPLIES

The 5V and 12V supplies are generated on the power supply. Measure the power supply output at the input to
the relay board.

HUMIDIFIER HEATER/SAFETY T-STAT

The humidifier has two separate heaters that are connected in parallel for 115 volt operation and in series for
230 volt operation. The safety t-stat is in series with the heater. Measure at J53.1 to J53.3

The resistance of each heater is about 144 ohms so it should measure about 72 ohms for 115 units, 288
ohms for 230 units.

AIR PROBE and PATIENT PROBE

There are two thermistors in each air probe or patient probe. During stable temperature conditions the ther-
mistors should read the same resistance within a few ohms.
