Key tips
- ·Never bypass a radiation interlock to "just get the image" - this is one of the few true zero-tolerance rules in BMET work.
- ·Trend image-quality phantom results over time - drift shows up before an outright failure does.
- ·Portable/mobile units take real physical abuse from transport - check wheel locks and cable strain reliefs more often than fixed units.
Typical Failure Modes
Compiled for this model from its own documentation and established engineering knowledge for this equipment class - not from a verified service record. Confirm against the manufacturer's service manual.
Poor 2D image quality across multiple probes
HighSymptoms: Noisy, low-contrast or non-uniform image, missing sector, drop-out that follows the system not the probe.
Root cause: Front-end / beamformer board fault, a probe-port (connector) board fault, or a system-board fault.
Transducer not recognised / probe-port fault
MediumSymptoms: A probe works on one port but not another, or is not detected at all.
Root cause: Worn probe-port connector or a scan-connector board fault.
Will not boot / intermittent shutdown
HighSymptoms: Dead system, hangs at boot, or powers off under load.
Root cause: Power supply / DC converter, the system battery, or a system-board fault.
Control panel / touchscreen or monitor fault
MediumSymptoms: Unresponsive TGC sliders or keys, distorted or blank display.
Root cause: Control-panel board, touchscreen, or the monitor.
Overheating / loud cooling fan
LowSymptoms: Thermal-shutdown warning, fan roar, hot exhaust.
Root cause: Failed or dust-clogged cooling fan or blocked air path.
DICOM / network / storage fault
LowSymptoms: Studies will not send to PACS, images will not archive, worklist empty.
Root cause: Network configuration or a storage-drive fault.

Troubleshooting Approach
A starting sequence for this model, compiled from its documentation and engineering knowledge for this equipment class. Follow the manufacturer's service documentation for the actual procedure.
Symptom: Poor 2D image quality across multiple probes / channel dropout
- Confirm the fault is present on more than one probe and on a phantom, not just one transducer.
- Inspect the probe-port connectors for bent pins or debris; reseat.
- Run the built-in front-end / channel diagnostics.
- Check cooling - a thermally throttled front end degrades the image.
- Escalate a confirmed beamformer / front-end board fault to the OEM.
Symptom: A transducer is not recognised on one port
- Try that probe on a second port and a known-good probe on the suspect port.
- Clean the port and the probe connector; check for a bent pin.
- Confirm the probe is a supported model for this system software.
- Reboot the system after reseating.
- Replace the probe-port / scan-connector board if the fault stays with the port.
Symptom: Will not boot / intermittent shutdown
- Note any boot / POST beep or on-screen code.
- Check the mains supply and the power-on sequence per the manual.
- Check the power-supply / DC-converter outputs and the system battery.
- Reseat the system boards and drives.
- Refer the power supply or the system board as isolated.
Symptom: Unresponsive control panel / TGC sliders / touchscreen or distorted monitor
- Power-cycle the system.
- Clean around the sliders / trackball; check the control-panel ribbon cable.
- Recalibrate the touchscreen.
- Check the monitor cable and, for a distorted image, the monitor itself.
- Replace the control-panel board or monitor as isolated.
Symptom: Studies will not send to PACS / archive
- Confirm the network cable / Wi-Fi and the DICOM store settings (AE title, IP, port).
- Send a test image and read the DICOM error.
- Check free space on the system drive.
- Verify the PACS accepts from this AE title.
- Restart the DICOM service / system.

Safety & Recalls
Synced live from the FDA openFDA API.
- RECALL
The probe power monitoring settings have been found to be not appropriate under specific operating conditions when connected to the devices listed below. This issue may result in overheating of the probe head. The probe power monitoring settings may not be effective in specific operating conditions so that the surface of the probe head may overheat in around one minute of continuous operations. The patient may experience discomfort, reddening of epidermis and/or mild pain. To date, no patient injury has been reported with regards to this issue.
- RECALL
The ultrasound system used in certain settings may result in overheating of the ultrasound probe head.
