1. Introduction
The Wireless Probe Type Ultrasound Scanner is the new generation instruments
for bladder volume calculating with the outstanding feature of wireless.
Different from traditional ultrasound scanner with a cable connecting from probe to
main unit, no cable appears at the end of the probe of the Scanner. The probe of a
Scanner is highly integrated with ultrasound image processing, power management and a
wireless signal provider to be connected by the main unit. Unlike traditional devices, the
display part displays images through the iPad.The Probe contains a WiFi module that can
be connected to the iPad. With the Probe be connected through WiFi and the App’s
running, enjoy your days of working without the trouble making by cables.
This manual is intended to provide a through overview of the Scanner and should
be carefully read before starting operating the device.
Thank you for your trust in us to provide for your bladder volume calculating
needs.

2.3. Starting probe
Figure 2-1 Wireless Ultrasound Probe
The Wireless Connection Indicator and the Battery Capacity Indicator on the
probe may be invisible before the probe is turned on.
Press the button to turn on the probe. The Battery Capacity Indicator will be
light to indicate the capacity of the battery. The four grids of the indicator imply the
battery capacity. (Probe charging will be described in section 4.1.)
Seconds after the probe turned on, the Wireless Connection Indicator will be
light and blinking to notice that the probe is ready for a wireless connection from the
iPad.
The probe can be turned off by hold down the button for seconds. When the
probe is off, the indicators will be turned off.
The concave (4) is the place for loading pressure by thumb. Suitable pressure is
applied to the probe so the probe can couple to body perfectly.
2.4. Wireless connection
When the probe is waiting for a wireless connection as described in previously,
launch the Settings of iPad, turn on the Wi-Fi (if not on), Find the SSID of the probe.
The SSID is like: “WB-1 GMBGBB001”, the suffix after “WB-1” is a code generated
from Serial Number. Connect to the SSID with the password same as the Serial
Number (in lower case). The Serial Number is in the form like “WBPBGBB001” with

the prefix of “WBP”. It can be found on the surface of the probe.
After Wi-Fi is connected, launch the Bladder Scanner App, after the connection
from the app to the probe is confirmed, the Wireless Connection Indicator on the
probe will be light with no blinking.
Every connection steps are done. The operations of using the system to finish
ultrasonography task will be described in the next section.
3. APP operation
3.1. Ultrasound scan
Figure 3-1 main menu
After the probe is connected, launch the App, the Main Screen will show similar
in Figure 3-1. (No image is visible when the App is firstly launched.)
The probe connection status label(5) indicates the status of the connection
between the probe and the main unit(like iPad).If the connection is well the label is
green and prompt “ready” otherwise the label is gray and the prompt is”probe”.

There is a center indicate line (3) in the middle of the image area .
Touch the patient information area (2) to enter the patient interface
to edit or create a new case. Please refer to section 3.2 for detail
information.
Press the Run/Freeze Button to run and Freeze the probe. When the
Image come to shown on the Image Area (1), the sample indicator (4)
will turn green from gray if the proper image has been
obtained( please refer to section 3.3 for detail information).
When the image is frozen, the 12 sections images and the calculating
volume value will be shown on the screen. Users can press “print”
(6)( please refer to section
3.4fordetailinformation)buttontoprintthecurrentresult.
Users can use the Save image button (7) to save the image and patient
information, Review button(8) to review the stored images( please
refer to section 3.5for detailinformation)..
Press the Setting button (9) to set the parameters, including gain
and channel(pleaserefertosection3.6fordetailinformation).
Note: In all interfaces, if the button is blue means that the prompt
operate is effective .if the button is gray indicates it is an invalid
operate.
3.2. Patient information
Figure 3-2 patient information
Touch the patient information area (2) (Figure3-1)to enter the patient
interface ,then touch the boxes after the labels, the ID, Name, Gender, Age and the
Operator can be input or chosen.

When you touch “Create New Case”, all the information will be cleared.
The Phantom Mode is default as closed.
After all the information has been set ,you can touch “OK” to save or “Cancel” to
give up, then the patient information interface will be closed.
3.3. Scanning
3.3.1 Prepare probe
Figure 3-3 pre-Scanning
Before scanning, please use some acoustic gel on patient abdomen and place
the probe. The thumb is place on the concave and the button can be pressed by
thumb pulp. For good coupling between the probe and abdomen, Suitable pressure
should be applied to probe by thumb.
3.3.1. Pre-scanning mode
Pre-scanning helps operator to locate bladder correctly to obtain accurate result.
If the connection is done, press the Button once on the probe to start pre-scanning
and the real-time B-mode ultrasound image displays on the screen.
When the mode is pre-scanning and the Bladder is in the center of image , the
cycle ((4) Figure3-1) on the right upper will be green.

Figure 3-4 pre-Scanning
3.3.2. Scanning mode
When the cycle is green, press the button again to enter scanning mode. The
device will obtain and deal with images. When the probe stops vibrating it means the
scanning is finished. The 12 scanning images and the measurement result will be
displayed on the screen (see Figure 3-3 scanning result menu).
Figure 3-5 scanning result menu

On the scanning result menu, there are 12 section images. The serial number of
the image is shown on the left upper of the single image. You can touch one single
image to be full-screen to see the details, and swipe left/right to see the
previous/next image and touch again shift back to total scanning result menu.
3.4. Print a case report
3.4.1. Reload a thermal paper roll
The Bluetooth printer uses the thermal paper roll, follow the steps to reload a
roll:
Figure3-6 reload a paper roll
1)
Turn off the printer;
2)
Open the housing cover;
3)
Take out the old roll(if have),put in a newone;
