Introduction Intended Use 2MHz and 3MHz probes were designed to be used to detect fetal heartbeats during pregnancy. 5MHz and 8MHz probes were designed to aid in the diagnosis of peripheral vascular disease. Caution: Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician or other licensed practitioner. Contraindications Warning: The device is not to be used on or near the eyes. Warning: The device is for use only on intact skin.
No independently confirmed adverse effects caused by exposure from present diagnostic ultrasound instruments have been reported in human patients in the absence of contrast agents. Biological effects (such as localized pulmonary bleeding) have been reported in mammalian systems at diagnostically relevant exposures but the clinical significance of such effects is not yet known. Ultrasound should be used by qualified health professionals to provide medical benefit to the patient.
Power On/Off Power to the unit is controlled by the POWER button located in the center of the unit. Pressing and releasing the button will cycle the unit through the power sequence. Volume The DigiDop has 16 volume levels. These are adjusted by sliding the volume slider on the left hand side of the main unit. Smart Recharge System (OPTIONAL) The DigiDop can be ordered with an intelligent battery recharger that prevents charging of non-rechargeable batteries.
D3W – Obstetrical. The 3MHz waterproof probe is designed for general purpose use during pregnancy. This probe is the most widely used probe for all stages of pregnancy in water applications. 5 MHz – Vascular. The 5MHz probe is designed for locating deeper lying vessels. The pen-tip sensor face aids in the location of specific vessels. 8 MHz – Vascular. The 8MHz probe is designed for locating shallow lying vessels. The pen-tip sensor face aids in the location of specific vessels.

Display View Battery Indicator Heart rate Indicator Signal ‘Confidence’ Indicator Probe ID Indicator Turning Unit On/Off Turn the unit on by pressing the power button while the unit is off. The LCD illuminating (and sound from the speaker) indicates power status. Turn the unit off by pressing the power button while the unit is on. LCD darkening indicates power status. For non-LCD versions the LED in the power button will remain illuminated during operation.
rechargeable batteries. Although non-rechargeable batteries will not charge, DigiDop units will not cause battery leakage under normal recharging conditions. NOTICE: Do not attempt to recharge alkaline batteries. Nonrechargeable batteries will not charge. With the Smart Recharge System, DigiDop units will not cause battery leakage under normal recharging conditions.
With the digital technology of the DigiDop it is not necessary to angle the vascular probes as with other manufacturers probes. Slowly move the probes in the area of examination until vascular sounds are heard. Given the small area of the vascular probes, the strength of the Doppler signal is highly location specific. Maintenance and Cleaning WARNING: The DigiDop is not designed for liquid immersion. Do not soak or drop the Doppler main unit or probes in liquid.
Battery Replacement WARNING: Replace rechargeable batteries only with approved rechargeable batteries. Please call customer service or visit our website for further information. WARNING: The DigiDop uses AA batteries. Do not attempt to use any other size batteries in the unit. Open the battery compartment by sliding the battery compartment door outward. It is easiest to remove the drained batteries by pulling the middle battery out first and then removing the upper and lower batteries.
