Any collision between a device and the PPS is automatically detected.
In case of collision, the PPS shifts into Recovery mode and the Collision
detected message appears.
 Pressing OK will start a recovery phase. During this phase, you can move the
equipments at a very slow speed.
When the PPS has been moved out of the collision situation, the Out of
collision. Next move will re-enable detection message appears.
When you move an equipment, collision detection will be enabled again.
If a collision occurs
If a collision occurs between the PPS and a person or another equipment, proceed
as follows:
1. The Collision detected message appears. Press OK.
2. If a collision is no longer present,
a. The Out of collision. Next move will re-enable collision
message immediately appears.
b. When you move an equipment, collision detection will be enabled.
3. If a collision is still present,
c. The Please move out of collision. Be careful: collision
detection will be disabled during next movement message
appears.
CAUTION In case of collision of the Patient Positioning System (PPS) with a device
or person, suspend all clinically related activities and contact IBA
personnel as the Proton Therapy System (PTS) cannot be guaranteed
to satisfy safety and performance characteristics. Collision of the PPS
with a device or person can affect the calibration of the PPS, leading to
reduction of positioning accuracy.
CAUTION Be careful when handling the system in this mode because the collision
detection will be automatically disabled (upon acknowledgement of the
collision detection) at the start of a collision recovery phase in order to
allow to move equipment(s) out of collision.
