ESD precautions must be
observed to prevent the Edge
ultrasound system from
shutting down during
operation. If the system shuts
down, turn it on again to
restore normal operation.

environment. If the user of
the Edge ultrasound system
requires continued operation
during power mains
interruptions, it is
recommended that the Edge
ultrasound system be
powered from an
uninterruptible power supply
or a battery.
