Connecting transducers
WARNING:
To avoid injury to the patient, do
not place the connector on the
patient. Operate the ultrasound
system in a docking system or on a
flat hard surface to allow air flow
past the connector.
Caution:
To avoid damaging the transducer
connector, do not allow foreign
material in the connector.

Inserting and removing USB storage
devices
Images and clips are saved to internal storage and
are organized in a sortable patient list. You can
archive the images and clips from the ultrasound
system to a PC using a USB storage device or
Ethernet connection. Although the images and
clips cannot be viewed from a USB storage device
on the ultrasound system, you can remove the
device and view them on your PC.
There are two USB ports on the system, and one
on the mini‐dock. For additional USB ports, you
can connect a USB hub into any USB port.
Note: The system does not support password‐
protected USB storage devices. Make sure that the
USB storage device you use does not have password
protection enabled.
