DVD and CD media are available in a number of types. Not all media types are fully compatible
with the system DVD drive. To ensure consistent performance, use only high-quality CD or DVD
media in the system DVD drive. For more information, see Media Compatibility on the User
Information CD.
For information regarding USB media, see
“USB Devices” on page 145 .
Multiple studies can be written to a disc, during one upload, up to the limit of its capacity. After
the studies are written to the disc, the disc is finalized and cannot be written to again. To reuse
a finalized RW disc, you must first reformat it. To record multiple studies to a disc, you must
end the exam you just recorded before removing the disc.
NOTE
A single disc can be used between different EPIQ 7 systems, but only for writing logs and setup
data.
DVD Drive
The system includes a DVD drive, located on the right side of the control module. You can use
this drive to store and transfer patient files, including full exams, 3D data sets, and reports. In
addition, you can save, restore, and distribute configuration data.
You do not need to format a disc before storing data on it.
Loading and Ejecting a Disc
Do one of the following:
• To load a disc, gently guide a disc into the drive slot, until the disc is pulled into the drive.
• To eject a disc, press the Eject button on the drive.
Erasing a DVD
Erasing a rewritable disc (DVD+RW, DVD-RW, or CD-RW) erases all of the data on it and
prepares it for reuse. After a disc is erased, the entire capacity of the disc is once again
available. You can also erase a write-once disc (DVD+R, DVD-R, or CD-R), but you will not be
able to write files to the erased portion of the disc.
