8-7-1 Software Installation Procedures - General Overview
The Vivid™ S60/Vivid™ S70 ultrasound scanner software loading options provide the ability to install
the Windows operating system, the Vivid™ S60/Vivid™ S70 application software - or both - depending
on current requirements.
The complete installation procedure can be performed using the Touch Screen only. An on-screen
(virtual) keyboard is available whenever text input is required. In addition, the optional A/N Keyboard
can be used - or any regular USB keyboard.
When installing the Windows operating system software, in some situations (for example, after
performing a
Hard Disk Replacement Procedure ), 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 Vivid™ S60/Vivid™ S70 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 Vivid™ S60/Vivid™ S70 unit.
