Assembly Instructions

The PowerPack installs on either the H-Universal™ or
V-Universal™ stand.

installation on back of stand)

Contents

1 Determine orientation and placement.

1 Determine the optimal orientation for installing

the PowerPack (See Figure 4):

• Ver tical orientation is recommended and
helps protect the PowerPack from possible
impact.

• Horizontal orientation is acceptable if other
accessories are present, providing insufficient
space for vertical installation.

2 Determine which side of the column on which to

install the PowerPack: front or back.
Back installation may help protect the PowerPack,

but consider issues such as cord placement (See

Figure 7) and available space on the column.

2 Insert nut plates on stand.

1 Insert a nut plate into the groove at the lower back

(or lower front, for front installation) of the stand
column, and slide it a few inches up the column.
See Figure 2 and Figure 3.

The flat, rubber side of the plate faces toward the
column.

2 Insert the two Phillips-head screws into the

mounting holes at the base of the battery and
tighten using the Phillips screwdriver.

To avoid injury to the operator and to
prevent damage to the ultrasound
system, inspect the battery for leaks
prior to installing.

To avoid the risk of electrical shock,
do not touch the battery contacts on
the PowerPack battery or housing.

5 Connect cables.

1 Connect the following cables:

• Power supply DC power cord (A) from the
stand to the PowerPack. (See “Cables and

connectors” on page 3.)

• PowerPack DC power cord (Z) to the system
directly, to the NanoMaxx dock, or to the mini­dock.

2 If charging the battery, connect to AC power:

Connect the system AC power cord (K) to the
stand and a wall outlet. For more information, see
the PowerPack user guide.
