kVp calibration problem

Error Code System Message

KVP CAL ERROR 1/2/4; X-RAY BYTE/WORD LIMIT

AMX kVp calibration error, X-RAY WORD LIMIT
Question

How do I troubleshoot AMX-Series kVp calibration errors?

Short Answer

kVp calibration errors occur when required kVp/mA combinations cannot be reached, calibration limits are exceeded, or X-ray feedback/calibration data is inconsistent.

Possible Causes

Incorrect battery voltage; HV divider/feedback issue; filament/tap calibration issue; generator output limit.

Troubleshooting Steps

Verify battery voltage, calibration meter setup, kVp feedback/divider wiring, filament/tap calibration, and the applicable kVp points. Use the specific KVP CAL or X-RAY LIMIT message.

Parts Areas to Check

HV divider; filament/kVp board; generator; battery
