4-3-6-1 Distance and Tissue Depth Measurements
1.) Press MEASURE
once; an active caliper displays.
2.) To position the active caliper at the start point (distance) or the most anterior point (tissue
depth), move the TRACKBALL
.
3.) To fix the start point, press Set. The system fixes the first caliper and displays a second active
caliper.
4.) To position the second active caliper at the end point (distance) or the most posterior point
(tissue depth), move the TRACKBALL
.
5.) To complete the measurement, press SET
. The system displays the distance or tissue depth
value in the measurement results window.
Before you complete a measurement:
To toggle between active calipers, press MEASURE
.
To erase the second caliper and the current data measured and start the measurement again,

Display layout can be preset to have B-Mode and Time-motion
side-by-side or over-under.
In the side-by-side layout, there are three display alternatives
defined: equal priority, time-motion priority or time-motion with
B-Mode reference.
In the over-under layout, there are three display alternatives
defined: time-motion priority, B Mode priority or equal priority.
