Customizing the touch screen
The touch screen can be customized to meet your needs. Press and hold any control for about a
second to put the touch screen in customization mode. Continue pressing and drag the control to a
new location.
Creating Folders: Dragging one control on top of another control will create a folder that
contains both controls. Dragging controls out of a folder until only one exists will automatically
delete that folder. Folders cannot contain other folders.
Multiple pages: Dragging a control to the side of the screen will move that control to the next
page.
Radio Button Cluster: There is no restriction on moving a single radio button. However, we
suggest that they are grouped adjacent to each other. When they are grouped in this way the
system will automatically draw a border around them to indicate they are a related group of
radio buttons.
TGC: The TGC is a special control that cannot be moved. It is always on the right side of the
B-mode tab.
3.2.5. Trackpad
In general, the system trackpad is used like a trackball or similar pointing device, used on most
ultrasound systems. Using a trackpad instead of a trackball helps makes the system easier to clean as
the area around the trackpad is completely sealed. In addition, the trackpad supports several other
functions that would not be possible with a traditional trackball:
The trackpad supports multi-finger gestures. For example:
o While in B-mode a pinch-out gesture can be used to zoom the image.
o While in Color a pinch gesture can re-size the ROI.
Dragging along the Swipe button at the top of the trackpad as a primary sliding control. For
example:
o In most live imaging modes, this adjusts the Overall Gain.
The top left and top right of the trackpad are reserved as two ‘Set’ buttons. Pressing ‘Set’ is
generally equivalent to a single click on a mouse or trackball. For example:
o In CD, it is used to toggle between controlling the size and the position of the pan box.
o In Measure, it is used to toggle between controlling of the individual calipers when
using a caliper pair.
The examples provided above are a subset of how the trackpad is used. Additional examples are
provided in specific feature descriptions elsewhere in this manual.
