Chapter 5: DICOM Connectivity
DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) is an optional data-transfer feature that
allows the TITAN system to connect over a local area network (LAN) to PACS archivers, to film
printers, and to worklist servers. This chapter contains instructions for configuring and using
DICOM.
TITAN System Setup for DICOM
To set up the TITAN system for DICOM connectivity:
1 Press the Setup key.
2 Select Connectivity.
3 In the Transfer Mode list, select DICOM.
A dialog box is displayed to restart the system.
Ethernet Connection
To connect to a LAN:
Connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet interface cable and then connect to the Ethernet
connection on the docking system/mini-dock. See TITAN Accessories User Guide.
With the system on, check the LAN link light (green LED) next to the Ethernet connector to verify
physical connection to LAN.
DICOM Setting Backup
Before configuring the TITAN system, SonoSite highly recommends saving the DICOM factory
settings to a CompactFlash card and storing the card in a secure location.
To create DICOM settings backup:
1 Insert a blank CompactFlash card in the back slot. See “Installing and Removing the
CompactFlash Card” on page 11.
2 Press the Setup key and select Connectivity and then DICOM Setup.
3 Select Config from the on-screen menu.
4 Select Export from the on-screen menu.
5 Remove the CompactFlash card when complete.
