Veterinaria with the outstanding feature of wireless.
probe of SL-2S Scanners.
The SL-2S Probe Scanner is highly integrated with ultrasound
image processing, power management and a wireless signal
The main units different with traditional devices are now changed to be
any mobile device. The probe acts as a Wi-Fi Access Point and can be
connected by mobile device. With the probe be connected
through Wi-Fi and the WirelessUSG App running, enjoy your days of
working without the trouble making cables.

2.3 Conecting the probe
Seconds after the probe turned on, the Wireless Connection Indicator will be light and
blinking to notice that the probe is ready for a wireless connection from the mobile device.
The Wireless Connection Indicator and the Battery Capacity Indicator on the probe
may be invisible before the probe is turned on.
Theletters of the password must be entered in lower case.
Once connected to the WiFi network, start the SmartVus app. When you start working
with the probe, the WiFi signal indicator will no longer ash in the same way.
Press the button ON/OFF to turn on the probe. The battery capacity Indicator will be light to
indicate the capacity of the battery. The four grids of the indicator imply the battery
capacity.
The probe can be turned o by hold down the button for 3 seconds. When the probe is off, the
indicators will be turned off.
When the probe is waiting for a wireless connection as described in previously, launch the
Settings of mobile device, turn on the Wi-Fi (if not on), Find the SSID of the probe. The
SSID is like: “SL-2S GMBFLA001”, the prefix “SL-2S” is a code generated from Serial
Number. Connect to the SSID with the password same as the Serial Number. Password
could be like “wapbfla001”

3. APP Operations
Once the probe is connected, start up the app and the main screen will appear.
No image is shown when you open the app for the first time.
3.1 Ultrasound scan
When you press the “Animal” button, a window pops up to enter the type of animal and the following fields:
The connected probe’s network is shown on the upper left.
Description of the buttons in the app:

GAIN is the ability to modify the ultrasound’s amplitude (magnitude of the ultrasound), changing the brightness of
the image. General gain changes affect the entire image equally.
Gain +: Raises scan gain up to 105 dB.
Gain - : Lowers scan gain down to 30 dB.
Depth
You can work with greater or lesser depth. Press the following button.
Focus
This is the maximum concentration of lines inside the ultrasound beam. This means
you must place the focus in the area of interest.
Adjusts the focus to obtain the best image, raising or lowering it on the screen.
Dinamic range
This process raises or reduces the difference between ultrasounds of greater or
lesser amplitude. With the Dynamic Range, you vary the amplitude of the signal
shown in grey scale. At a low setting, the image has greater contrast. When
increased, the image is softened.
The value range goes from 40 to 110. Lower settings increase the image’s contrast.
Changes the scan frequency from 7,5 to 10 MHz
Selects the 4 zooms available: 20, 30, 40 and 55 mm.
You can also adjust this by swiping your finger in the
middle of the screen, up or down.
Harmonic / Frequency
You must select the suitable frequency for the examination. With greater frequency,
there is lesser penetration, and vice-versa. With the Harmonic Image, the return signal
not only includes the base frequency, but also the frequency matching its double. The
ultrasound processes both signals separately, eliminating the basic frequency with its
noise.

Denoise
It’s an algorithm to eliminate spotting, to soften the image of the organs and to make
the edge of tissue softer. Lower settings increase image noise, and high settings
reduce it.
Reducing image grain. Range of value from 0 to 3.
B Mode
Two-dimensional representation of the ultrasounds, shown as light-up dots with
variable clarity, depending on frequency and depth.
Press this button to show the ultrasound options with modes BM
Freeze
Put the probe on stand-by by freezing the image to examine aspects more
thoroughly. The probe’s consumption is less than half of LIVE mode consumption.
Freeze and unfreeze (live) the image.
Play
This equipment permanently records a video sequence (Cine Loop) of the last 100,
200, 500 or 1000 frames. As new photograms are recorded, the previous ones are
deleted. To change the Cine Loop’s size, go to the settings button.
Once the image is frozen, this plays the saved Cine Loop.
Measurements
You have 5 measurement modes: length, angle, area/circumference, trace and
depth. Once the method is selected, take the measurement with your finger on the
screen, placing the cursors where you wish to measure for length mode, or by
drawing the desired area for area, circumference, and trace modes.
Press this button to drop-down the menu that shows length, area/ circumference and
trace measurements.
Annotations
You can make notes anywhere on the screen. You may input alphanumeric characters. If,
after leaving a comment on the screen, you save the image, then the note will be included.
This creates a window at the location on the screen where you pressed with your finger,
and the keyboard pops up to write.

Press this button to clear all measurements and annotations on the
screen.
Clear
SaveImage
Once the image is frozen, you have saved the 100, 200, 500 or 1000 images in the
Cine Loop that may be saved in the film roll. Swipe your fingers in the middle of the
screen to the left or the right to select the image you wish to save.
Save Video
When you freeze the image, like in the previous case, the Cine Loop stops recording,
and the entire photogram sequence can be saved. Videos will last 10, 20, 50 or 100
seconds.
This saves in the Cine Loop you were storing until you pressed Freeze in the
film roll.
Settings
Shows the settings you can adjust on the equipment.
Press this button for a pop-up window to modify the following parameters:
- Adjusting WiFi, 2.4 GHz channels. In the event of conflict with other WiFi network
channels nearby, the channel can be changed to prevent interference. If you change the
channel, you will lose the probe password and you will need to enter it again. See point 2.4
of this manual.

Finally, if you press the vertical bar on the right-hand side, you
can drop down the 8 sections of the TGC to adjust gain as
desired for each zone.
If you slide each one of the buttons to the right, you increase
gain at that screen height. Sliding it to the left decreases gain. If
you press RESET, you return the factory TGC settings.
- Show information: shows or hides information on screen parameters.
- Cine Loop: temporary recording made as you conduct the ultrasound. The last 100, 200,
500 or 1000 photograms will be saved.

4. Maintenance
4.1 Charging the probe
When the charger is connected to the USB cable, the platform’s LED light turns
green.
We recommend using a2A charger and the original cable for the wireless
charging base.
When the battery is being charged, the indicator levels will blink until charging is
complete. At this point, the four levels will be visible, without blinking. Charging
the battery can take up to 4 hours.
When the battery runs out, you must recharge it. You can do this with a wireless
charger. Not included as part of the series is the loading platform. Connect its USB
cable to it, and the mobile device charger.
The battery duration is 3 hours under constant operation.
The iPad lasts around 9 hours, depending on ambient light. If there is much light, the
iPad’s brightness will turn up to offset it, leading to higher consumption.

4.2 Tablet resistance
To prevent the tablet from becoming dirty from dust or getting moist or wet, a
water- proof cover is included. It is splash- and dust-resistant.
As aparticular recommendation, we suggest purchasing an IP68 cover for iPad
mini, which is also fall-resistant up to 1.2 m.
4.3 Cleaning
4.4 Storage
While storing the probe, we highly recommend that the temperature be no lower than 15°C.
If the probe or the mobile device’s temperature is lower, you must warm them before use.
The probe must periodically be cleaned. The part of the probe that is inserted into the
rectum has IP68 water- and dust-protection, meaning it resists dust and water, but the
(beige) electronic part cannot be submerged. You may use a damp cloth or paper to
clean it.
Another recommendation: regarding battery charge, if the probe and the tablet will not be
used for along period, we recommend storing them with afull charge.
