3.4 Concept of Operation
The control center of the Voluson® S6/S8 is the console with the digipot controls, the hard
keys and the trackball. The console controls frequently used functions, e.g., Freeze/Run,
change of modes, etc. Additional functions are controlled via the trackball.
3.4.1 Digipot controls, Trackball
Activated functions are easily controlled by these controls. When rotated they deliver digital
pulses and can be selected by program call-up. They are displayed in the status area by their
location, their function, and their actual value of setting.
3.4.2 Keyboard-Shortcut Functions
The available menus are shown in the menu area on the left side of the screen. The current
menu selection is highlighted.Roll with the trackball and the arrow moves to another
selection.The corresponding keyboard shortcuts are shown to the left of the actual function.
3.5 Layout of Menus
Mainly two menu levels are used for operating the system, the main-menu level and the
submenu level. From the main menu the most important submenus, e.g. adjusting the 2D
image are directly accessible. Some hard keys activate a specific submenu on the menu area,
e.g. the Archive key. Normally changing from one submenu to another is made via the main
menu; direct call-up from one to another submenu is possible in some rare cases only.
3.5.1 Layout of the 2D Mode Main Menu
All B-Mode operations are started from this menu. It contains 4 main groups of operating
functions:
