B/M Mode
Image Optimize
B/M Mode Image Optimize
Power Output
Optimizes image quality and allows user to reduce
beam intensity. 2% increments between 0-100%.
Dynamic Range
Dynamic Range controls how echo intensities are
converted to shades of gray, thereby increasing the
adjustable range of contrast.
Focus Number and Position
Increases the number of transmit focal zones or
moves the focal zone(s) so that you can tighten up
the beam for a specific area. A graphic caret
corresponding to the focal zone position(s) appears
on the right edge of the image.
NOTE: Push key to toggle between Focus Number
and Focus Position.
NOTE: Not available when Auto frequency/Auto
depth active.
Rejection
Selects a level below which echoes will not be
amplified (an echo must have a certain minimum
amplitude before it will be processed).
Edge Enhance
Frame Average
Temporal filter that averages frames together. This
has the effect of presenting a smoother, softer
image.
Colorize
Enables gray scale image colorization. To
deactivate, reselect a Gray Map.
Gray Map
Determines how the echo intensity levels received
are presented as shades of gray.
Rotation (Up/Down)
Rotates the image by selecting the value from the
Softkey.
Frequency
Multi Frequency mode lets you downshift to the
probe's next lower frequency or shift up to a higher
frequency.
Line density
Optimizes B Mode frame rate or spatial resolution
for the best possible image.
B Mode Control Panel Controls
Auto Optimize
Automatic Tissue Optimization optimizes the image
based upon a specified Region of Interest (ROI) or
anatomy within the display.
Zoom
Magnifies a zoom region of interest, which is
magnified to approximately the size of a full-sized
image. An un-zoomed reference image is displayed
adjacent to the zoom window. The system adjusts
all imaging parameters accordingly. Press Depth/
Zoom/Ellipse key to activate Zoom. Adjust the key
to increase or decrease the zoom size. Use the
Trackball to position the Zoom ROI. Only when the
zoom size reaches the max or press the Depth/
Zoom/Ellipse key again would deactivate the
Zoom, and activate Depth.
Reverse
Flips the image left/right.
Range Focus
Improves the near/mid field image quality, borders/
interfaces, increases contrast and detail resolution
across the image, and allows for less filling in the
vessels.
Edge Enhance brings out subtle tissue differences
and boundaries by enhancing the gray scale
differences corresponding to the edges of
structures. Adjustments to M Mode's edge
enhancement affects the M Mode only.
Sweep Speed
Changes the speed at which the time line is swept.
The following speed values are available, 1, 2, 3, 4,
6, 8, 12, 16.
LOGIQ C5/C5 PRO Quick Guide Direction 5272220-100 Rev. 2 8
B/M Mode Image Optimize (continued)
B/M Mode Scanning Hints
Auto Optimize. Improves imaging performance
while reducing optimization time.
Frequency. Changes system parameters to best
optimize for a particular patient type.
Maps. There is an inter-dependency between gray
maps, gain, and dynamic range. If you change a
map, revisit gain and dynamic range settings.
Dynamic Range. Affects the amount of gray scale
information displayed. If you increase the gain, you
may want to decrease the dynamic range.
Edge Enhance. Better delineates the amount of
border crispness.
Frame Average. Smooths the image by averaging
frames. Affects the amount of speckle reduction.
Virtual Apex
On Sector probes, Virtual Apex provides a larger
field of view in the far field.
Virtual Apex is always active with sector probes.
Virtual Convex
On Linear probes, Virtual Convex provides a larger
field of view in the far field.
Virtual Convex is always active with linear probe.

Color Flow/Doppler
Image Optimize
Color Flow/Doppler Image Optimize
Baseline
Adjusts the baseline to accommodate faster or
slower blood flows to eliminate aliasing.
PRF/Wall Filter
Velocity scale determines pulse repetition
frequency. If the sample volume gate range
exceeds single gate PRF capability, the system
automatically switches to high PRF mode. Multiple
gates appear, and HPRF is indicated on the display.
Wall Filter insulates the Doppler signal from
excessive noise caused from vessel movement.
NOTE: Push button to toggle between PRF and
Wall Filter.
Angle Correct
Estimates the flow velocity in a direction at an angle
to the Doppler vector by computing the angle
between the Doppler vector and the flow to be
measured.
Quick Angle
Quickly adjust the angle by 60 degrees.
Threshold
Sample Volume Gate Length
Sizes the sample volume gate.
Map
Allows a specific color map to be selected. After a
selection has been made, the color bar displays the
resultant map.
Packet Size
Controls the number of samples gathered for a
single color flow vector.
Controls in Common with B Mode
For more information on Focal Zone, Power Output,
Frequency, Frame Average, Dynamic Range, Gray
Map, and Colorize, refer to the B/M Mode Image
Optimize section in this Quick Guide.
Scanning Hints
Line Density. Trades frame rate for sensitivity and
spatial resolution. If the frame rate is too slow,
reduce the size of the region of interest, select a
different line density setting, or reduce the packet
size.
Wall Filter. Affects low flow sensitivity versus
motion artifact.
6. Increase Frame Average.
7. Increase the Packet Size.
8. Reduce the ROI to the smallest reasonable
size.
9. Position the Focal Zones properly.
To decrease motion artifact,
1. Increase the PRF.
2. Increase the Wall Filter.
To eliminate aliasing,
1. Increase the PRF.
2. Lower the Baseline.
For venous imaging,
1. Ensure that you have selected the vascular
exam category.
2. Select a venous application.
3. Select the appropriate probe for very superficial
structure.
4. Select two focal zones.
5. Adjust the depth to the anatomy to be imaged.
6. Maintain a low gain setting for gray scale.
7. Activate Color Flow.
8. Maintain the PRF at a lower setting.
9. Increase Frame Averaging for more
persistence.
Threshold assigns the gray scale level at which
color information stops.
Doppler Display Formats
Display layout can be preset to have B-Mode and
Time-motion side-by-side or over-under.
To improve sensitivity.
1. Increase the Gain.

Using Probes
CAUTION
Using Probes
Connecting a probe
1. Place the probe's carrying case on a stable
surface and open the case.
2. Carefully remove the probe and unwrap the
probe cable.
3. DO NOT allow the probe head to hang free.
Impact to the probe head could result in
irreparable damage.
Inspect the probe before and after each use for
damage or degradation to the housing, strain
relief, lens, seal and connector. DO NOT use a
transducer which appears damaged until
functional and safe performance is verified. A
thorough inspection should be conducted
during the cleaning process.
4. Align the connector with the probe port and
carefully push into place with the cable facing
the front of the system.
5. Turn the connector locking lever up.
6. Carefully position the probe cord so it is free to
move, but not resting on the floor.
Activating the probe
Swich the probe
Swich probe between the two probe through
pressing Probe bottom.
NOTE: Swiching the probe frequently will cause
probe can not be supported warning message.
Deactivating the probe
When deactivating the probe, the probe is
automatically placed in standby mode.
1. Ensure the LOGIQ C5/C5 PRO is in freeze
mode. If necessary, press the Freeze key.
2. Gently wipe the excess gel from the face of the
probe.
3. Carefully slide the probe around the right side
of the keyboard, toward the probe holder.
Ensure that the probe is placed gently in the
probe holder.
Disconnecting the probe
Probes can be disconnected at any time. However,
the probe should not be active when disconnecting
the probe.
1. Move the probe locking handle counterclockwise.
2. Pull the probe and connector straight out of the
probe port.
3. Carefully slide the probe and connector away
from the probe port and around the right side of the
keyboard.
4. Ensure the cable is free.
5. Be sure that the probe head is clean before placing the probe in its storage box or a wall hanging
unit.
Fault conditions can result in electric shock hazard.
Do not touch the surface of probe connectors which
are exposed when the probe is removed. Do not
touch the patient when connecting or disconnecting
a probe.
The probe activates automatically in the currentlyselected operating mode when it is connected. The
probe's default settings for the mode and selected
exam are used automatically.
