using the appropriate tab.

loop.
3. Once the scanning is started the B-Scan Plus
computer will store the last "X" seconds of image
data (predetermined in Setup, Cine Buffer).
4. When you stop the scanning by either using the
trigger switch on the probe, the footswitch, or by

button on the probe. The B-Scan Plus will also
create a new view in the sequence if you continue
