4.5 Upgrading the System Software
Transducers that you receive from SonoSite may contain either required or optional
upgrades to the system software that resides on your SonoSite system.
Whenever you connect a transducer to a SonoSite system, the system communicates
with the transducer to determine if it contains software that would upgrade the
system.
CAUTION :
`
Initiating any upgrade of the system software erases any images stored on your
system. Do not upgrade the system software until you have determined that any
stored images are no longer needed.
To upgrade the system software:
1. When you first connect a transducer with new software and turn the system on,
the following message displays:
Do you want to upgrade the system software?
For required upgrades:
You must perform the software upgrade or replace the transducer with one that is
compatible with the software currently installed on your system. Do one of the
following:
•
Select no (disconnect transducer) to reject the system software upgrade.
• Select yes (up to 20 minutes) to accept the system software upgrade and go to
step 2.
For optional upgrades:
You may either install the new software or continue to use the existing software.
SonoSite recommends that you install these optional upgrades soon after receiving
them. Do one of the following: Select
no (continue) to use the system without
upgrading.
•
Select yes (up to 20 minutes) to accept the upgrade and go to step 2.
2. When you have accepted the upgrade, the system loads the new software and
displays the following message:
Upgrade in progress (20 minutes total)
.
Note: The system upgrade can take up to 20 minutes; however, many software
upgrades will be completed in less time.
To cancel the upgrade in progress, select cancel.
If this is a required upgrade:
• The existing software remains installed.
• The system displays the following message:
Incompatible transducer, upgrade the system software.
If this is an optional upgrade:
• The existing software remains installed.
• The system will go to live scan.
3. When the system has loaded the new software, the following message displays:
Successful upgrade
.
If the software upgrade is unsuccessful, the system displays an error code and
you must contact SonoSite technical support. U.S. customers, call 1-877-657-
8118 . International customers, call 1-425-951-1330 or contact your local
representative.
