3-11-1 Introduction
To be able to use the network functions when con nected to a hospital network, the scanner must have 
a proper network address. 
• Before you can set up the scanner, you need to collect some information. The  Pre-quote 
Worksheet for DICOM Network Information on page 2-14  can be used for gathering this 
information. Typical source for this in formation is the network administrator.
• Follow the steps below to prepare the scanner for use on the network.

3-11-8      Verification of a Connection Set Up to EchoPAC PC - Software v2.x (cont’d) • In the example in  Figure 3-125, the red “X” next to the computer sign ( ), means that the check 
failed. The cause may be;
- the setup of the network information, either on Vivid 7 or on the EchoPAC PC, or
- the network connection is broken somewhere between the Vivid 7 and the EchoPAC PC.
NOTE: If the Check button fails directly, the AE Title is probably wrong. If the Check button fails after a long time (correspo nding to the timeout), the IP address or  Port 
Number is probably wrong.
• A green light next to the computer sign me ans that a network connection is in place.
