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:
SEnsure 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).
SMake sure that the power switch is turned off.
SUnwrap 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.
SPush 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.
Press the Power On Power Off/Stand-by switch, located to the left of the probe connectors, to
the on position.

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.

B-Mode Controls
There are four Soft-Menu pages for B-Mode imaging adjustments.
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.
ATO On/Off—Highlighted when the ATO map is active on the image;
toggle on and off to display that same ATO map again.
Frame Average—Averages previous frames of image data with the
current frame.
Imaging Freq—Allows more echoes to pass through.
Image Softner—Adjust for the amount of smoothing applied.
Color—Allows for enabling B-Mode image colorization.
3D Mode—Allows for 3D Mode option activation.
