Control Panel
(For systems without a touch screen)
The ultrasound imaging system has a combination of keys, rotary knobs, push and rotate
controls, and toggle controls. A trackball provides access to on-screen objects. The keys and
controls are logically arranged to require a minimum number of hand and eye movements. The
control panel also includes customizable keys.
Use the system configuration menu to assign the function of the customizable keys.
