Chapter 3 - Setup Instructions 3-61
3-11-1-3 Stand-alone Voluson E8 / Voluson E6
If digital images or 3D/4D data sets are stored, they should be saved in the Archive (Image Management
System software).
For Image Management functionality refer to the Basic User Manual of the Voluson E8 / Voluson E6.
Physical Connection:
No network connection needed.
3-11-1-4 Voluson + PC (with 4D View Software) within a “Sneaker Net”
A PC (one or several with 4D View software installed) is used for review and work on studies acquired
on one or more Voluson E8 / Voluson E6 scanners without being connected in a network.
The images are first stored on the Voluson E8 / Voluson E6 scanner’s hard drive (Archive) and then
exported from the scanner’s hard drive to a sneaker device (e.g., DVD/CD), and finally imported from
the sneaker device to the “4D View” PC’s internal hard drive.
For Image Management functionality refer to the Basic User Manual of the Voluson E8 / Voluson E6.
Physical Connection:
No network connection needed.
3-11-1-5 Connection between Voluson and DICOM Server
In this configuration, the Voluson E8 / Voluson E6 is configured to work with a DICOM server in a
network environment. Usually, this will be the hospital network. Images are first saved on the local
image buffer on the scanner. At the end of the examination, the images are sent to the DICOM server
via a DICOM spooler. This scenario requires that the scanner is configured to be connected to the
DICOM server.
Physical Connection:
You will need one network cable.
1.) Connect one end of the cable to the Ethernet connector on the Voluson E8 / Voluson E6.
2.) Connect the other end of the cable to the wall outlet.
NOTE: If a Peer-to-Peer Network is connected to the hospital’s network, you may connect the Voluson
E8 / Voluson E6 to the Peer-to-Peer Network.
For more details refer to Section 3-12 "Network IP Address Configuration" on page 3-65.
