Chapter 3 - System Setup 3-43
3-7-2-4 MOD Drive
The MOD drive connection in the different scenarios is explained below.
• No SafeLock Cart - connection directly to the Vivid i n/ Vivid q N system
The MOD Drive can be connected to either of the USB ports (upper or lower) on the rear connectors
panel. This connection must be via a USB-to-SCSI adaptor; one side of the adaptor being
connected to the Vivid i n/ Vivid q N USB port, and the other side to the rear of the MOD drive.
When connecting the MOD drive directly to the system, it is necessary to use an additional power
source. As a safety precaution, this must be done via an isolation transformer.
The MOD Drive may be connected once the system is powered ON, or after shutdown. All software
drivers for the MOD Drive are pre-configured and installed designated to be used with the specific
MOD drive supplied by GE Medical Systems.
WARNING Do not attempt to use a different type of mass storage device other than the
MOD Drive supplied with the system. The ultrasound system is an extremely sensitive and
complex medical system. Any unauthorized peripherals may cause system failure or damage!
• No SafeLock Cart - connection via USB hub
As stated above. Safety considerations must be taken into account. The MOD Drive must be
powered via an isolation transformer. Either USB port may be used to communicate with the
MOD device.
• Vivid i n/ Vivid q N mounted on SafeLock Cart
The MOD device can be connected to any of the USB outlets provided on the SafeLock Cart. One
must use the additional power source to activate the MOD Drive. However, this must be powered
from the SafeLock Cart itself, via one of the isolated peripheral power outlets provided on the cart.
NOTICE
IMPORTANT Do not connect the MOD Drive to the Vivid i n/ Vivid q N system while scanning is
in progress!
NOTICE
IMPORTANT During Stand-by mode, it is NOT recommended to introduce or remove USB
devices; this may cause the system to lock-up during the boot-up procedure.
