4 - Precautions
CHARACTERISTICS
SERVICE
A series of precautions that must be observed each time you perform an operation
on the system are emphasized below:
• the equipment must always be switched off before carrying

out any service operation. In the same way, all the probes and
peripherals (for example external monitor, printer, video-
recorder) must also be disconnected.
• the boards must be removed when the equipment is powered

off.
• an electrostatic discharge occurring through the contact with

the operator, can irreparably damage the electronic
components on system boards, that are sensitive to electro-
static discharges: it is therefore recommended that
precautions to prevent these discharges are taken each time a
board has to be removed/installed. In operational terms, this
means:
• the machine must rest on an electro-static mat connected to

earth.
• the service technician must also be connected to the same

earth each time he removes or installs the boards.
• the boards and components must always be moved in their

special electro-static containers.
• for the service on the field, use the specific kits including the
anti-static mat.
The chapter entitled “system Parts List” details the sub-assemblies that are to be
considered sensitive to electro-static discharges (ESD).
When the board is ESD sensitive, you can find this symbol on the PCB master.

• If the problem affects the real time functioning, the active

application and modality (for instance, in cardiac application
with Doppler PW).
• If the problem affects the not-scanning operations, the

involved function (for example measurements, annotations,

is possible, it is extremely useful for the fault identification to
have a known operations sequence that always reproduces
the problem.
Together with this information, the description should state all the steps that cause
the problem (for instance during 2D-CFM scanning with SP2430 probe in

Chapter
3 - Format Disk
This chapter gives the indications on how to use the format disk.
When Using the Format Disk

As the disk name suggests, all data saved in the internal data base are erased when
the format disk is run. For this reason the format disk has to be used as the
very last action whenever the system software is locked and there is no way
to re-start correctly the system.
The internal archive MUST be copied whenever it is possible; it is also

suggested to copy the clinical and system configuration to re-configure the system
as it is, once the format procedure has been completed (refer to Section 3, Chapter
3 “System Replacement”).
WARNING The format disk will erase all patient data saved in the internal data base:
before running the format procedure, if possible, save the archive folder.
TROUBLESHOOTINGS
Note
The field service technician must inform the system owner that the
format procedure erases all patient data saved in the internal data
base. If no archive back up is available and if the internal Archive
folder cannot be copied, the patient data will be definitively lost
after the format procedure.
Before executing the format procedure, run first the upgrading procedure,
described in this manual (refer to Section 5 for further details) to try to unlock the
system.
WARNING If the equipment is equipped with the batteries, be sure that the system is
connected to the main before starting the format procedure. The system
must remain connected to the main during the format and during all the
next steps, including the first reboot to complete the firmware upgrade.
