Starting Scanning
All equipment must be cleaned and disinfected before use.
Connecting the Transducer
The transducer is connected to the scanner using the array Transducer Socket on the
scanner. To connect, the transducer plug’s locking lever should first be in a horizontal
position. Align the plug to the scanner socket and insert securely. Turn the locking
lever clockwise to lock in place.
When connected, the transducer complies with Type BF requirements of EN60601-1
(IEC 60601-1).
Changing Frequency
The Multi-Frequency Imaging (MFI) facility enables you to select the scanning
frequency. See the applicable scanner user guide for instructions. The selected
frequency is displayed at the top of the screen.
Using a Transducer Cover
The transducer should be enclosed in a transducer cover or a standard condom. See
the Product Data sheet for a list of available transducer covers.
Note: Sterile, disposable sheaths are recommended for intraoperative use. In the
United States of America, it is recommended that probe sheaths have been market-
cleared. In Canada, use only licensed probe sheaths.
