Customizing the System
You can customize your system to increase efficiency and streamline your workflow. You can do
the following:
• Create presets designed specifically for the exams you perform
• Change system settings to reflect your needs
• Add options to enhance your imaging abilities
• Create custom procedures for specific patients, transducers, and presets.
Presets
A preset is a group of settings that optimizes the system for a specific type of exam. Presets
establish many initial settings, such as gain value, color map, filter, and items on the touch
screen.
When you turn on your system, the default preset is active. Before you begin an exam, be sure
that the appropriate preset is active.
You can choose from several default presets. You cannot delete these default presets.
However, they provide a starting point from which you can create your own presets. You can
create and store up to 45 presets per transducer/application combination, depending on the
space available on the touch screen. If you need to create more than 45 presets per transducer,
you can save presets to a DVD or USB storage device and restore them when you need to use
them.
The available presets are determined by the selected transducer.
NOTE
Presets are available only if you purchased the corresponding application-package option.
