2.4 Battery CAUTIONs
CAUTIONS
To protect the battery from potential thermal damage, the system monitors the
temperature of the battery at all times. If the battery is detected as exceeding the
maximum safe operating temperature, a warning message will appear on the display of
the Z.ONEUltra.
To prevent possible damage to the unit, the battery should be REMOVED from the
Scan Engine prior to transport or shipment.
Do not immerse battery in water or allow it to get wet.
Do not put the battery into a microwave oven or pressurized container.
Use only batteries provided by ZONARE
Store the battery between -20 to 60o Celsius (-4 o to 158
o
F).
If the battery leaks, emits orders, emits heat, is deformed or discolored in any way
immediately remove it and stop using it.
2.5 USB Memory Stick CAUTIONs
CAUTIONS
USB Memory Sticks that are purchased from outside sources (besides Zonare) may not be
compatible for use in the Z.ONEUltra. USB Memory Sticks which are labeled as “U3
Smart Technology” on their label or packaging, will NOT be recognized (or function) in
the Z.ONEUltra.
In the case of having one of these incompatible format USB Memory Sticks. There are
freeware U3 Smart Technology “Removal” programs available on the internet, that can
be downloaded and run to make the USB Memory Sticks useable on the Z.ONEUltra
2.6 Networking CAUTION
CAUTIONS

Figure 40: 2-Bay Battery Charger
5.6.8.1 “Recalibrating” Battery Packs
Recommended Intervals:
The Z.ONEUltra battery pack contains Lithium-Ion battery cells as well as an electronic “fuel”
gauge that keeps track of the charge and discharge cycles of the battery cells. During frequent
charge/discharge cycles, it is possible for this fuel gauge to loose its synchronization to the actual
charge remaining in the battery. When this happens, it is recommended to “Recalibrate” the
battery pack. This process will re-synchronize the fuel gauge to the battery cells.
It is recommended that the “Recalibrating” process be performed on each battery pack at the
following interval:
Usage Type Recommended “Recalibration” Interval
Battery packs heavily used in standalone
(undocked) Scan Engine mode
Every 30 charge cycles (or approximately once per month, maximum)
Battery packs used in Scan Engines
primarily operated docked in SmartCart
Every 2 to 4 months
STEPS
:
1. Connect the AC power cable to an active wall outlet, and connect the DC power cable between
the power supply and the 2-Bay Battery Charger
2. Insert the battery pack into the LEFT bay of the 2-Bay Battery Charger (Note: Only the LEFT
bay performs “Recalibration”)
3. Press the “Recalibrate” button on the 2-Bay Battery Charger
Q00169 Rev D Page 72 of 304
"Note: Copies are uncontrolled documents - For revision verification see the Master Docum e ntation List"
Page 73
4. During the “Recalibrate” process, the left status LED flashes ORANGE. Once the
“Recalibrate” process is completed, this same LED will intermittently flash between ORANGE
and GREEN.
NOTE: - The “Recalibrate” process may require 14 hours to fully complete
- The battery pack should NOT be removed prior to completion of the “Recalibrate” process,
as the battery will be at an unknown level of charge
5.6.8.2 Charging Scan Engine Battery Packs
STEPS
:
1. Connect the AC power cable to an active wall outlet, and connect the DC power cable between
the power supply and the 2-Bay Battery Charger
2. Insert the battery pack into the EITHER bay of the 2-Bay Battery Charger
3. The charging cycle on the docked battery pack will automatically begin to execute
4. During the “Charging” process, the corresponding status LED flashes GREEN. Once the
“Charging” process is completed, this same LED becomes solid GREEN.
NOTE: - The “Charging” process, in the two bays of the unit, is performed in a “sequential” fashion. If
two battery packs are docked into the 2-Bay Battery Charger at the same time, the charger
will perform the complete charging sequence on one battery pack, before starting the
charging sequence on the second battery.

ARCHIVE SERVICE FUNCTIONS:
WARNING
Due to the deletion of the original (assumed corrupted) database file during the “REBUILD
PATIENT EXAM DATABASE” process, it should be noted that Patient information updates
made to initially started exams (i.e. changing Patient name info, etc, after the first image for a
study has already been stored) will only be retained in post-rebuilt exam, if the “READ” option
for the Helper files is “unchecked”.
Rebuild Patient Exam Database - Content:
This option allows for specifying the granularity of the exam database rebuild process that is
initiated with the “REBUILD” menu selection below.
NOTE: The exam database content granularity selections (described below) does not have
any effect (is not applicable) for rebuilds where the targeted device (via the pulldown selection) is an “External” media (i.e. USB memory sticks, CD/DVD, etc)
device.
Minimum: Rebuilds the study/exam table ONLY. Additional rebuilding, of the other
tables, will occur later, as each individual study is accessed. (fastest)
Complete: Completely rebuilds all
exam database tables, including exam/study
table, series table, image/IQ/key image note table. (longer)
Patient Exam Database Rebuild “Helper” Files:
These settings allows for specifying how the database “Helper” files will be affected/utilized,
when the “REBUILD” operation is performed.
NOTE: Default is both boxes selected (“checked”):

valid single “HELPER” file (most current patient/exam information
for entire study) for each exam, and use its content exclusively for the
database rebuild operation (fastest)
When unchecked: The system will scan all files in each exam folder,
looking for the most current data to be used for creation/update of the
“HELPER” file. (longer)
Create/Update: When checked: Instructs the system to generate a current
“HELPER” file for each exam, during the execution of the “Rebuild”
process. Once completed, subsequent “Rebuilds” should run much
more quickly (as long as the “READ” option box is also checked)
When unchecked: The system will not create or make any updates to
existing “HELPER” files, when the “Rebuild” operation is performed.
Rebuild Patient Exam Database:
Clicking on this menu item begins the database “Rebuild” process. The “Rebuild” process is
intended to be used in cases where exam access to the patient image ARCHIVE of the internal
exam storage of the scan engine, or other archive media (Cart Hard Drive, remote USB media,

from DICOM image transfers to the target device. (default is “retain”)
Internet Protocol address. A unique Internet address for devices attached to an IP
network (TCP/IP network).
Specify the duration (in seconds) that an established DICOM connection will be
maintained, after completion of the last transfer.
Specifies the sending of Key Image Note electronic “Post-It” note info, as Key
Object Document content during the DICOM-DICOM SR transfers to the PACS
system.
Filtering by modality (US, CT, MRI, et cetera) of scheduled patient examination
data generated by the Worklist server. Set according to department requirements.

Defines the level of detail information that will be displayed in the DICOM
Queue.
Maximum entries cached
Enter a number between 0 and 999
Set according to department requirements. A higher number provides access to
more scheduled exams, but increases the time required to search for the exam of
interest.
Minimum/Maximum Film Density For defining Minimum/Maximum density of images on film. Value entered is
expressed in hundredths of OD (optical density). A value entered of 150,
corresponds with 1.5 OD. Typical acceptable values to be entered are 000-399,
with 020 (for “Min”) and 300 (for “Max”) being a potential starting point.
Network Type
Nickname
e.g., “Prep Room Printer”
Allows for manual or auto setup of network speed and duplex operational state.
Selections include: Auto-Negotiate, 100MB/Full-Duplex, 100MB/Half-Duplex,
10MB/Full-Duplex, 10MB/Half-Duplex
An informal name to identify the device to users in the department. This name is
typically assigned in the department.
Network Usage Type Defines the interval at which DICOM images will be transferred over the network
to the PACS storage device. Either immediately upon each press of STORE
(“Exam in Progress”), or at the termination of the current examination (“Exam
Completed”).
- Exam In Progress
- Exam Completed
No Color
If selected, images that are captured when the
modalities where no “Color” is present (B-Mode, PW Doppler, M-Mode), will be
Z.ONEUltra is being operated in
transferred to the receiving DICOM device (Network Store system) as
“Grayscale-Monochrome2.
Despite this “No Color” selection being active, all images captured while in Color
Doppler mode will still be transferred to PACS using the color map selected in
the Color Model field.
PDU Receive/Send Size
The size (in bytes) of the basic data packets (PDU: Process Data Unit) that will be
trasferred during receive and transmit operations. (default is 16384 = 16K)
Pixel Spacing Adds ability to assign CT/MR-specific pixel spacing to ultrasound images sent to
PACS, to allow for calibrating pixels to millimeters for measurements.
Polling Interval (minutes)
None
The frequency of automatic updates to the worklist. A short polling interval may
impact system performance. Choose a preferred interval; or choose None to
update the worklist only on demand.
choose minutes
Port number The TCP/IP port number that is being used by the DICOM device connected to
the Z.ONEUltra. Default port value is 104.
Queue Timeout (sec)
Queue Start Type
The maximum amount of time that a DICOM job will remain active in the queue,
before it times out.
Defines whether the start of jobs in the DICOM queue will be performed
automatically or started manually.
