SonixTouch Service Manual 00.053.058, Revision D Chapter 7: Field Service Components
7-39
7.6 MODULO – INTERNAL COMPONENT REPLACEMENT
Modulo Servicing has been divided into three (3) separate sections. The first (7.4 Replacing the Modulo) dealt with the
modulo as a discreet entity and the second (7.5) with front block/ultrasound module servicing.
This, the third section enables qualified service personnel to deal with issues/parts within the modulo itself.
7.6.1 Removing the Hard Drives
To protect Patient/Exam data and System settings, Ultrasonix strongly recommends regular patient/image file
back-up and purging of older patient files stored on the system. Refer to sections 7.1.1 and 7.1.3 for details on
backing up User Settings and Patient/Exam data.
Hard drive removal is necessary whenever the modulo or system must be removed from a customer site.
Equipment/Tools Required:
• #2 Phillips screwdriver
• scissors or utility knife
• anti-static bag (included with replacement modulo).
Caution: Before doing any work with the modulo, be sure to complete sections 7.1.1 and 7.1.3 (or 7.1.5) in order to the
protect the integrity of the client's data.
IMPORTANT: The contents of the system hard drive may include Personal Health Information that must be
protected as dictated by local or state laws (for example, Federal Privacy Act or the Health Insurance
Portability & Accountability Act (HIPAA)). In order to ensure regulatory compliance, Ultrasonix will not remove
the system hard drive – and the patient data it contains – from the customer site.
In the event the hard drive must be removed from the system, it will be returned to the customer. Final
disposition of the hard drive and its data will remain the customer's responsibility.
Warning: Do not perform any internal system maintenance if the UPS breakers are turned on.
Caution: Always wear a grounding strap when opening and working inside the modulo.
