Creating a New Exam
Before you start, make sure that the transducer you want to use for the new exam is
connected. (If a different transducer is connected, see Switching Transducers on page 65
for instructions.)
To create an exam, complete these steps:
1. Select the system exam or custom exam that has settings close to the one you want to
create. See Opening an Exam on page 215.
2. Modify the Image Control settings as needed. See Working With Scan Modes on
page 89 for instructions.
3. To overwrite the settings for a custom exam, select
Exam > Save Exam. The Terason
software saves the image control settings, and you can skip the rest of this procedure.
To create a new exam, select
Exam > Save Exam As.
4. Enter the filename for the new exam. You can use up to 15 alphanumeric characters
for the filename.
5. Click
Save.
The new exam is now available for use whenever the current transducer is connected to
the computer. If you connect a different transducer, this new exam is not available.
Creating Size-Specific Versions
When you create a custom exam for a specific size, a preset exam is created for the size
that is selected when the exam is saved. To use the parameters you defined in the preset for
other sizes, you must create customized exams for each size.
Use the same name for each size you modify, when saving the exam. The Terason
software saves the presets as part of the same exam, so when you load an exam, the
Terason software can use the correct preset values for the selected size. If you use different
names for different size settings in the same exam, you must remember to load the size-
specific exam, because the Terason software cannot update the preset values based on the
size setting.
To create size-specific versions of an exam, complete these steps:
1. Click the 2D tab in the Image Control window.
2. Choose a different Size button.
3. Adjust all Image Control settings as necessary.
4. Select
Exam > Save Exam.
Do not use the
Save Exam As item.
Deleting Custom Exams
If you no longer want a particular exam, you can delete it. You can only delete custom
exams; you cannot delete any of the system exams.
