Starting the System

4.1

General Remarks

Installation, switching on the first time and check-up of the system must only be performed by
authorized persons.
The VOLUSON® 730Pro is delivered with recommended basic settings. These offer suitable
conditions for a large number of applications. Depending on the user's experience these default
settings can be changed and stored as new User Programs. Storing these programs or quick loading of
new programs of a second user is done by backups.

Safety Warnings

CAUTION ! In the event the equipment has been brought from a cold environment (stock
room, airfreight) into a warm room, allow several hours for temperature balance
and passing of condensation humidity before switching on the first time (risk of
leakage current).
CAUTION ! The system is equipped with mains outlets separated by an isolation transformer
for peripheral equipment (printer, VCR). To ensure electrical safety, these
instruments must never be connected to a wall socket.
4.3

Turn on Power

Push the Standby switch to ON. For its location review:
Once system is switched on it is completely reset. The company logo will appear on the monitor for
approx. 2 minutes, then the 2D mode main menu for the previously selected transducer is displayed.
In case, however, it was disconnected, the menu "PROBE/PROGRAM" will appear .
Remarks:
* The mains outlets of the system for peripheral auxiliary equipment are commonly switched with
the Standby switch, so the auxiliary equipment need not be switched on/off separately.
However, be aware some auxiliary equipment may switch itself to standby mode when Standby
power is on (e.g., Color video printer ) and must therefore be switched on separately.
* The system's monitor has its own main switch, which is normally always left ON.
If found off, resp. if here is no information on the screen, switch it on.
