Saving images and clips
When you save an image or clip, it saves to internal
storage. The system beeps afterward if Beep Alert
is on, and the percentage icon flashes. (See
“Audio, Battery setup” on page 19.)
The percentage icon in the system status area
shows the percentage of space used in internal
storage. If you try to save an image or clip when no
space remains, the system alerts you that internal
storage is full. To resolve this issue, archive images
and clips that you wish to save, and then delete
them from the system to free up space. See “To
delete images and clips” on page 41.
To receive alerts when storage is near capacity, see
“To receive storage alerts” on page 19.
To access saved images and clips, open the patient
list. See “Reviewing patient exams” on page 39.
To save an image

The image saves to internal storage.
By default, the
SAVE key saves only the image. As a
shortcut during calculations, the

both the image to internal storage and the
calculation to the patient report. See “Presets
setup” on page 22.
