Continuous capture mode enables the user to perform acquisition continuously for several views at any level depending on
the selected template configuration. Continuous capture consists of temporarily saving images acquired in a storage buffer.

normal Freeze/Scan mode. The Pause mode enables scanning and live display on the screen without capturing, thereby
leaving the buffer available.
To run Continuous capture, select a template that supports this feature.
Note: Continuous capture mode allows for 500MB storage capture. If the storage buffer is filled up the system will
automatically display the Continuous capture selection screen.
SmartStress
Check Smart stress to store a subset of the image acquisition settings (e.g. geometry, zoom, gain, compress, reject,
power...etc) for each view in the protocol. Smart Stress enables image acquisition settings for each view at the baseline
level, automatically extending the same image settings to the corresponding views in the next levels. To use Smart stress in
Continuous capture, use the arrow buttons to indicate to the system when you are switching views.
