CAUTION:
Always verify a deviating hole pattern with Varex Imaging Nederland B.V. before drilling
additional holes in the housing. Any additional holes may interfere with the inner
construction of the docking station.
CAUTION:
The M5 mounting screws may not intrude more than 5mm into the housing.
CAUTION:
Always verify a deviating hole pattern with Varex Imaging Nederland B.V. before drilling
additional holes in the housing. Any additional holes may interfere with the inner
construction of the docking station.
CAUTION:
When Front grid switch is closed and Rear switch open the grid is not fully inserted and
the grid will be visible on the image when exposure is made.
Pins marked with * are model type specific and may not be functional in your device.
NOTE:
The “Grid Present” function is equipped with two switches, giving the ability to indicate
when a grid is not fully inserted. In this case, the front grid switch is activated while the
rear grid switch is NOT activated.

inserted correctly (correct
10 Grid Present contact 2
position). Contact is open when
no grid is used.
NOTE:
The “Grid Present” function is equipped with two switches:
• When a grid is present, but not positioned correctly all signals will be blocked
and the docking station will not pass-through any signals.
If the grid is positioned correctly or if there is no grid present the other signals (e.g.
“detector present”) will pass-through.
Optional, an additional switch is provided to determine if grid “A” or grid “B” is inserted. The switch will
be activated by applying a mounting kit onto the applicable grid. Contact Varex for more information on
this kit.
The table below gives more information about the connection of this second optional switch. Along
with the switch a female connector is supplied to make the connection between the X-ray system and
the docking station.
Mount a fixed grid, if a removable grid is not required or if the “Varex Imaging Nederland B.V.
removable upgrade-kit” is not installed onto the grid.
Use “Mounting set, fixed grid” (Varex Imaging Nederland B.V. part number: 19071).
It contains the following:
• 4x set screws M3x6.
• 2x dowel pins Ø1.5x20.
Proceed as follows:
WARNING:
Check whether the grid present indication is working properly.
The blue LED (optional feature), indicating “grid present and inserted correctly” will switch on when the
grid switch (1) is closed (see picture below). This switch is sequence-connected with a switch at the
front of the device.

each bracket
NOTE:
The maximum stroke of the screws is 6mm.
3. Use this space to position the measuring chamber below the rail and between the rail and the
bracket.
4. Align the measuring chamber with the X-ray beam.
5. Tighten the screws to fix the position.
NOTE:
When positioning the measuring chamber inside the docking station make sure the cable
does not interfere with any moving parts and/or components of the docking station.
Before placing the silicon cushions, the brackets need to be cleaned and degreased.
5. Mains isolation
WARNING:
Secondary circuits connected to the device shall comply to requirements of the IEC
60601-1 for separated from the mains supply by 2 Means Of Patient Protection
(2MOPP).
The Harmony3 series shall only be connected to secondary circuit voltages (See 4.4 for the max.
electrical ratings) of an IEC 60601-1 compliant ME system, which are separated from the mains
supply by 2 Means Of Patient Protection (2MOPP). A connection to supply mains is not.

NOTE:
For a grid, different FFD / Ratio versions are available on request. Depending on the
ratio, focal distance and number of lines a long lead time could be applicable.
WARNING:
Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables
and external antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of
the Harmony3 series, including cables specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise,
degradation of the performance of this equipment could result.
WARNING:
Not taking EMC measures into account on the wiring may result in increased EMISSIONS
or decreased IMMUNITY. IEC 60601-1-2:2014 must be followed for being complaint with
EMC guidelines.
WARNING:
Use of this equipment adjacent to or stacked with other equipment should be avoided
because it could result in improper operation. If such use is necessary, this equipment
and the other equipment should be observed to verify that they are operating normally.
WARNING:
Use of accessories, transducers and cables other than those specified or provided by the
manufacturer of this equipment could result in increased electromagnetic emissions or
decreased electromagnetic immunity of this equipment and result in improper operation.
NOTE:
The EMISSIONS characteristics of this equipment make it suitable for use in industrial
areas and hospitals (CISPR 11 class A). If it is used in a residential environment (for
which CISPR 11 class B is normally required) this equipment might not offer adequate
protection to radio-frequency communication services. The user might need to take
mitigation measures, such as relocating or re-orienting the equipment.
Deviations
No deviations from IEC 60601-1-2:2014 are applied.
