Introduction The Quick Start Guide (TRANSLATED) provides a step-by-step description of the basic features and operation of the LOGIQ
500. It is intended to be used in conjunction with the Basic User Manual in order to provide the information necessary to operate the system safely. The Quick Start Guide takes the user from system familiarization through power on, patient data entry, exam category/preset selection, scan modes/adjustments, basic measurements, report pages, recording images and power off. The LOGIQ
500 manuals are written for users who are familiar with basic ultrasound principals and techniques. They do not include sonography training or clinical procedures.

Prescription Device (for USA only) CAUTION: United States law restricts this device to sale or use by or on the order of a physician.

Power On To connect the system to the electrical supply: S

Ensure that the wall outlet is a minimum 20 amp dedicated circuit for 120 VAC (USA) or 7.5 amp dedicated circuit for 220–240 VAC (Europe).

S

Make sure that the power switch is turned off.

S

Unwrap the power cable. Make sure to allow sufficient slack in the cable so that the plug is not pulled out of the wall if the system is moved slightly.

S

Push the power plug securely into the wall outlet.

To power on the system, ensure that the Circuit Breaker, located on the back of the power supply near the bottom of the unit, is turned on.

Probe Controls A probe is activated by pressing the Probe Select key that corresponds to the probe port to which the desired probe is connected. The Single CWD key is used to activate the dedicated continuous wave Doppler (CWD) probe. The active probe key will be brightly lit.

Probe Ports All imaging probes can be plugged into any of the three probe ports. The CWD probes can be plugged into the Single CWD port which is located above Probe Port Position 3.

.

NOTE: Ensure that the probe port is deactivated and the image is frozen before disconnecting the probe.

Dynamic Range-Controls how echo intensities are converted to shades of gray, thereby creating a range of gray scale that can be adjusted. Gray Map-Determines how the echo intensity levels received are presented as shades of gray. Focus Number-Changes the number of focal zones so that the beam can be tightened or expanded for a specific area. ATO Create-Automatic Tissue Optimization optimizes the image based upon a specified Region of Interest (ROI) or anatomy within the display.
