Software Installation Procedure - General Overview
The Venue™ ultrasound scanner software loading options provide the ability to install the Windows
operating system and the Venue™ application software.
The complete installation procedure can be performed using the Touch Screen only. An on-screen
(virtual) keyboard is available whenever text input is required. I
When installing the Windows operating system software, after replacement of the SSD module, it is
necessary to format the hard disk.
Be aware that this will perform a full format of the Hard Disk and
all patient data will be lost
.
Normally, the Venue™ system is supplied with the software already installed. In some cases, it is
necessary to re-install the software.
NOTE:
After performing a software installation, all logs are deleted. It is recommended that these
should be recorded should they be needed in the future.
If you are upgrading the system software from a previous version, it is necessary to contact your local
OTR department to receive an appropriate software password. Make sure you specify the system serial
number located on the Venue™ unit.
