Image Task Card
The Image task card is used for selecting the imaging mode and the
image format and for optimizing the settings such as dynamic range,
persistence, and edge enhancement or for selecting an exam type or
transducer that contains pre-configured, optimized settings.
The Image task card also provides controls for functions other than imaging
parameters. VCR recording, ECG settings, image formatting, and the update
styles settings are organized in group boxes.
The Image task card also includes capture definitions for storing and
reviewing clips.
Parameter Menu Selections
Mode-specific menus and selections display on the left side of the screen in
the Image task card. Each imaging mode has a mode-dependent Parameter
menu used to adjust imaging parameters.
Note: A Parameter menu may have two pages of selections. To access the menu
selections, roll the trackball to the Page 1 of 2 indicator or the Page 2 of 2 indicator on the
Parameter menu and then press the SELECT key.
Note: A menu selection can be an icon and/or text. The "Tool Tip" column in the following
tables indicates additional text displayed on the screen when you roll the trackball to
position the trackball pointer on the menu selection. The "Settings" column in the
following tables lists the settings that are displayed on the Parameter menu for each
menu selection (graphically depicted settings or options are not listed in this column).
