7 Replacing the Trackball 106
This guide provides procedures and information for replacing spare parts on the ACUSON
S FamilyTM ultrasound system mainframes equipped with widescreen Flat Panel Displays
(FPD). When adding optional parts, follow procedures under the Installation section of
CB-DOC.
To determine compatibility issues, a Hardware/Software Configuration Guide is available.
These guides provides an overview of ACUSON S Family system mainframe configurations
and options, including requisite software levels and hardware requirements.
The core of the S Family Ultrasound system is built on a Trolley Frame Assembly (TFA).
There are two (2) different Trolley Frame Assemblies (TFAs). The original TFA is made of
cast metal and the newer TFA2 is made of a molded plastic composite.
Most of the images displayed in this document are from the original TFA and will look
slightly different on the TFA2.
Pay attention to IVK controlled parts and update the records when changes are made!
When servicing the ACUSON S Family systems, always use the current Service Parts Cata‐
log (SPC) for order information.
Q Parts and Complaint Parts are to be returned without delay. Follow local processes to
ensure a quick return.

HDD, complete all sections of the software installation procedure. When replacing a dam‐
aged HDD the following software installation sections are not applicable:
n Check the System Settings
n Back Up the Presets
n Restore the Presets
To save time, call the customer to ask them to archive the Patient Database (if the system
is still functional)—preferably to a workstation— prior to visiting the site. In addition, any
obsolete patient records should be deleted. If the customer cannot successfully archive
the Patient Database, refer to Archive the Patient Database in the corresponding software
procedure. Archiving the Patient Database can take up to two hours.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of electric shock and burns, use only the cable and patient
leads supplied with the ECG feature.
Use of other ECG cables could defeat the current-limiting and electrical safety
features.
NOTICE
To avoid possible damage to the ECG cable, do not pull on the cable when discon‐
necting the ECG connector.
Always grasp the connector housing.
The ECG inputs are defibrillation proof. However, in the event of defibrillation while us‐
ing the ECG function, the ECG inputs may become saturated (overloaded). An ECG pat‐
tern may not be visible for up to 30 seconds. After this time, the ECG function should
return to normal operation.
1. Connect the System power cable to an external power source (wall outlet).
2. Plug in a transducer, then start up the system. Wait for the system to complete its
startup sequence.
3. Make sure 2D Mode is active. If not, press the 2D control on the control panel.
4. Make sure imaging mode is active. If not, select the Image task card tab to activate
imaging mode.
5. Activate the ECG function.
c) Connect the ECG leads to the ECG electrodes. Or connect the ECG leads to an ECG
simulator is available.
A trace cannot be displayed unless all leads are connected to the patient or an ECG
simulator. The ECG curve will appear on the window.
d) Press the F13 button on the control panel to activate the Physio menu.
6. Reposition the Trace.

7. Change the trace amplitude.
The sweep speed of the trace can be changed only in 2D mode. During Doppler or M
mode, the trace has the same scrolling speed as the Doppler spectrum or M-mode
sweep.
Decrease/Gain and Increase/Gain only appear after Manual Gain is selected in Physio
System settings.
The Speed icon only appears when Auto Gain is selected in Physio System settings.
Rotating the Menu control will cycle through the pre-defined sweep speed settings.
Select from five different sweep speed options (1,2,4,6, and 8). The Sweep Speed
icon will indicate the selected speed accordingly (for example, Phys Swp 1).
a) Select the ECG icon from the Physio group box of the 2D parameter menu. The
trace disappears from the window.
