3-6-5 Probe Connection
V7/V7 PRO has four positions to plug in probes. 
• On systems without the 4D Imaging  option, the left connector is a “dummy” connector, only used 
for parking one probe connector. The three other connectors can be selected and used for 
scanning.
• On systems with the 4D Imaging option, the three  leftmost connectors are standard probe ports and 
the probe port to the right  is for the 4D Imaging option.
A separate “Pedof” Doppler probe  connector is also available.
3-6-5-1 Connect a Probe NOTE: It is not necessary to turn OFF Power to connect or disconnect a probe.
 
1.) Hold the probe connector vertically with the cable pointing upward.
2.) Turn the connector locking handle counter -clockwise to the horizontal position.
3.) Align the connector with the probe port and carefully push into place.
4.) Rotate the locking handle to the full vert ical position to lock in place. (See Figure 3-11.)

CAUTIONDO NOT ALLOW THE PROBE HEAD TO HANG FREELY. EXCESSIVE IMPACT TO THE PROBE 
WILL RESULT IN IRREPARABLE DAMAGE.
CAUTIONTO PREVENT PROBE CONNECTOR PINS, OR 
PCB BOARD DAMAGE, DO NOT USE EXCESSIVE 
FORCE WHEN CONNECTING THE PROBES.
CAUTIONDO NOT USE EXCESSIVE FORCE ON THE CONNEC TORS. PINS CAN BE BENT, OR PCB BOARD

3-6-6-1 Connect Mains Power to the Unit
    
NOTE: Do not cycle the Circuit Breake r ON-OFF-ON in less than five (5) seconds.   When turning OFF 
the Circuit Breaker, the system should de-energize  completely before turning the circuit breaker 
ON.
NOTE: When turning on a system from standby mode, it ta kes a few seconds before it responds. Do not push 
the On/off button again during  this period. A second push will initiate a full shutdown. 
NOTE: If the unit has been in the OFF condition for an extended period of time, (3 to 5 days or more),  the unit may not boot, or may beep when turned on. 
Follow These Steps to Connect Mains Power to the Unit
Connecting the Vivid 7 ultrasound unit involves pre liminary checks of the power cord, voltage level and 
compliance with electrical safety requirements. 
1.) Ensure that the wall outlet is of appropriate  type, and that the power switch is turned off.
2.) Uncoil the power cable, allowing sufficient sl ack so that the unit can be moved slightly.
3.) Verify that the power cabl e is without any visible scratches or any sign of damage.
4.) Verify that the on-site mains volt age is within the limits indicated on the rating label near the Circuit 
Breaker at the rear of the unit.
DANGERALWAYS CONNECT THE UNIT TO A FIXE D POWER SOCKET WHICH HAS THE 
PROTECTIVE GROUND ING CONNECTOR. 
DANGERNEVER USE A THREE-TO -TWO PRONG ADAPTER; THIS DEFEATS THE 
SAFETY GROUND. 
DANGERENSURE THAT THE POWER CORD AND  PLUG ARE INTACT AND THAT THE 
POWER PLUG IS THE PROPER HOSPITA L-GRADE TYPE (WHERE REQUIRED). 
CAUTIONSYSTEM REQUIRES ALL COVERS
OPERATE THIS UNIT ONLY WHEN ALL BOARD COVERS AND FRAME PANELS ARE 
SECURELY IN PLACE. THE COVERS ARE REQUIR ED FOR SAFE OPERATION, GOOD SYSTEM
