Symptoms

No exposure when bucky selected radiation

X-ray system does not produce exposure when particular bucky interface selected; grid may or may not oscillate

Ranked causes

1. Bucky grid not oscillating; interface not functional (common)
2. Bucky exposure enable output circuit malfunction (common)
3. Cable failure or loose connections (occasional)
4. Generator bucky select output circuit failure (occasional)
5. Generator exposure enable input circuit failure (occasional)

First check

Observe grid behavior on expose command

Test point: Bucky grid
Expected: Grid oscillates if interface half functional

Exposure occurs but grid does not move radiation

X-ray exposure fires but bucky grid remains stationary when bucky is selected

Ranked causes

1. Incorrect bucky interface wiring (common)

First check

Compare actual interface wiring to connection diagram

Test point: Bucky interface connections
