1.9 PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
1.9.1 LCD Display
The monitor is a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD display) with an operating resolution of 1024x768 pixels @ 60Hz
(Hertz) and built-in speakers.
1.9.2 Operator Console
The console incorporates a sleek, yet conservative design with easy to reach function controls, consisting of a
trackball, push buttons, dials and a 10.4" (26.4cm), color touch screen.
1.9.3 Modulo
The modulo is the heart of the system. The system CPU as well as the ultrasound module – in the form of system
boards and electronics – are encased in an aircraft grade aluminum composite case for ease of service.
1.9.4 Transducers
Ultrasonix offers a wide selection of high performance transducers for a variety of imaging applications.
Incorporating the latest acoustic materials and technology, these lightweight transducers are ergonomic and
durable for maximum clinical use. Refer to
6.7.1 Transducer Disclaimer for a complete list of transducers
available with the system.
1.9.5 UPS
The system may be delivered with an optional UPS running on a lithium ion battery. The UPS, located below the
modulo, helps to ensure that no data is lost when the system is temporarily unplugged and moved around. Upon
delivery, the UPS will be turned off and the battery may be completely drained of power. During installation, the
technician will ensure that the system—and therefore the battery module—is left plugged in, allowing it to
completely charge the battery. This will take approximately 6.5 hours.
For details on UPS configuration, refer to 3.3.4 .
Refer to 7.2 Turning the UPS Breakers ON and OFF for UPS circuit breaker shutdown procedures.
Warnings:
NEVER
let liquid from any source enter the UPS. Failure to do this may result in accidental shorts, shocks or
electrocutions .
DO NOT attempt to service this product yourself. Attempting to open the UPS may cause exposure to lethal
voltages within the unit even when it is apparently not operating and the input wiring is disconnected from the
electrical source. Should the UPS require maintenance or replacement, only qualified Ultrasonix Service
Technicians may perform service as detailed in the Service Manual.
Use only the UPS battery recommended and supplied by Ultrasonix Medical Corporation.
For UPS and battery service issues, contact Ultrasonix Technical Support.
If the battery is removed from the system, it is the responsibility of the customer to dispose of it in accordance with
all local regulations and laws.
