Product Conventions

Your Philips product uses certain conventions throughout the interface to make it easy for you
to learn and use:
• Three unlabeled buttons near the trackball are used with the trackball. The two buttons on
either side of the trackball are called the "left and right trackball buttons," and they operate
somewhat similarly to PC mouse buttons. The button above the trackball is called the
"middle trackball button," and it is used to update the imaging display, complete
measurements, and other operations as specified in procedures. The trackball arbitration
icon, at the bottom of the display, indicates the current functions of the trackball buttons.
• Tabs along the top of the monitor display let you choose additional sets of setup options.
Tabs along the top of the touch screen let you choose additional pages of controls.
