Connecting Probes
The Vivid™ 4
ultrasound unit operates with various types of probes that are used for scanning patients,
including flat phased, convex and linear electronic array probes. Once connected, the probes can be
selected for different applications.
There are four active probe connectors on the unit’s control panel (one connector is for a pencil probe).
Probes can be connected or changed any time, as described below:
1) Inspect the probe socket to verify that it is free of debris.
2) Hold the rectangular probe connector vertically so that the probe’s cable points upwards.
3) Rotate the probe locking latch
counterclockwise
to the unlock (horizontal) position.
4) Gently insert the connector into one of the matching sockets on the front of the unit. Gently push
the connector in as far as possible.
5) Rotate the locking latch 90 degrees
clockwise
to lock the connector into place (vertical).
NOTE:
It is not necessary to turn OFF power to connect or disconnect a probe.
