Olympus Exera II CV-180
Olympus · Model Exera II CV-180
Equipped with high-resolution HDTV imaging capability to assure the best-possible image quality for endoscopy and laparoscopy. This enables enhanced observation of capillaries. Compatible with EVIS 100/130/40 Series and EVIS EXERA™ 160 Series scopes as well as bronchoscopes and surgical endoscopes (EndoEYE™, 1CCD/3CCD camera head, and VISERA™ videoscopes). Narrow Band Imaging™ (NBI) to enhance the visibility of fine capillaries and the mucosal tissues. Two types of structure enhancement are available the original Type A for observation of larger mucosal tissues with high contrast, and the new Type B for observation of smaller tissues, such as capillaries. Electronic magnification enlarges moving or still images by 1.2x or 1.5x with no loss of quality. Convenient recording of both still and moving images on xD cards or digital video cassettes using remote control switches. HD/SD SDI output for deterioration-free images. Automatic Iris eliminates the need for switching between Peak and Average required in conventional manual adjustment.
Key tips
- ·A failed leak test means the scope does not get reprocessed or used - send it for repair, full stop.
- ·A shortened reprocessing cycle is a real infection-control failure, not a minor deviation - follow AAMI ST91 exactly.
- ·Track light-source lamp-hours against the manufacturer's limit rather than running to failure.
Typical Failure Modes
Compiled for this model from its own documentation and established engineering knowledge for this equipment class - not from a verified service record. Confirm against the manufacturer's service manual.
No or dim illumination / lamp fault
HighSymptoms: No light output, dim or flickering light, lamp-hours alarm, colour shift.
Root cause: Xenon / LED lamp at end of life, a lamp power supply fault, or a light-cable fault.
Poor video image
HighSymptoms: Noisy, dark, discoloured or out-of-focus image, dropouts, no image.
Root cause: Camera head / coupler fault, a camera-cable fault, or a CCU / video-processor fault.
White-balance / colour fault
MediumSymptoms: Cannot white-balance, persistent colour cast.
Root cause: Camera head sensor drift, a dirty coupler, or the light source colour temperature.
Overheating / fan fault
LowSymptoms: Thermal shutdown, loud fan, hot exhaust.
Root cause: Failed or clogged cooling fan.
Output / connector fault
LowSymptoms: Signal only on one output, connector damage, HD/SDI dropout.
Root cause: Worn video output connector or an output board fault.

Troubleshooting Approach
A starting sequence for this model, compiled from its documentation and engineering knowledge for this equipment class. Follow the manufacturer's service documentation for the actual procedure.
Symptom: No or poor video image / recording will not start / files corrupt
- Confirm a valid input signal on each source (SDI / HDMI / DVI / composite).
- Swap the input cable and try another input.
- Clean the scope lens / coupler and re-white-balance (endoscopy camera).
- Swap the camera head and cable to isolate head from CCU.
- Replace the camera head or the capture board as isolated.
Symptom: Storage / media fault / export fails
- Check free space and the internal drive health.
- Test export to USB and to the network share separately.
- Confirm the PACS / share settings and credentials.
- Replace a failing internal or optical drive.
- Verify an exported study opens on another workstation.
Symptom: Capture will not trigger / footswitch or camera-button fault
- Test the footswitch and its cable.
- Test the camera-head buttons.
- Check the trigger input configuration.
- Replace the footswitch or trigger cable.
- Confirm capture from each trigger source.
