Software licensing
SonoSite software is controlled by a license key.
After you install new software, the system prompts
you for a license key. You must obtain one key for
each system or transducer that uses the software.
The software will operate for a short time (the
grace period ) without a license key. During the
grace period, all system functions are available.
After the grace period, the system is not usable
until you enter a valid license key. Grace period time
is not used while the system is off or asleep. Grace
period time remaining appears on the license
update screen.
To obtain a license key for your software, contact
SonoSite Technical Support. (See “SonoSite
Technical Support” on page ix.) You need to
provide the following information. (See “System
Information setup” on page 22.)
After you obtain a license key, you must enter it into
the system.
To enter a license key
1 Turn on the system.
The license update screen appears.
2 Enter the license key in the Enter license
number field.

If you entered a valid license key but the license
update screen appears, verify that you entered
the license key correctly. If the license update
screen still appears, contact SonoSite Technical
Support. (See “SonoSite Technical
Support” on page ix.)
Maintenance
No periodic or preventive maintenance is required
for the system, transducer, or accessories other
than cleaning and disinfecting the transducer after
every use. (See “Cleaning and disinfecting
transducers” on page 92.) There are no internal
components that require periodic testing or
calibration. All maintenance requirements are
described in this user guide. Performing
maintenance procedures not described in the user
guide may void the product warranty.
Contact SonoSite Technical Support for any
maintenance questions. (See “SonoSite

system functions except licensing

key is entered.
