WARNING
Don’t park the system on a slope. Don’t use the brakes to park the system on a slope.

2.3 Revisions of the Deskstand and Rollstand


In the past the 3 USB ports of the Deskstand and Rollstand have been disabled. This
measure was taken because MyLab units with revision <04 could crash when during
operation the unit is removed from the Deskstand or Rollstand (hot docking).

Deskstands and Rollstands with disabled USB ports have a certain revision
letter.
 Deskstand: Revision B. The Deskstand label is marked: R. B
 Rollstand: Revision D. The Rollstand label is marked: R. D

MyLab units with revision 04 can be removed from the Deskstand or Rollstand
during operation (hot docking) without the risk that the unit crashes.

DOC # 81B40SM04 16 Esaote Europe


The revision of a MyLab unit can be found on the backside of the unit.

Summarizing we can say that:


To prevent crashing of the unit during hot docking, we would advise to use MyLab
units with revision <04 only in combination with a Deskstand or Rollstand with
disabled USB ports.
 If the unit revision is <04 use only Deskstand revision B and
Rollstand revision D
 If the unit revision is 04 Deskstand without revision letter and
revision A or C can be used
 If the unit revision is 04 Rollstand without revision letter and
revision A, B, C or E can be used.

2.4 Battery
When no mains power is available, the MyLab can operate on its internal battery pack. A
fully charged double battery pack allows about 3 hours of operation time.

CAUTION
When the MyLab is equipped with its internal battery pack, do not leave the system
exposed to direct sunlight to avoid overheating of the battery.

WARNING
The battery pack will self-discharge over time, the maximum charge retention of a fully
charged battery pack is ninety (90) days. Make sure that a fully charged battery pack will
be re-charged each 3 months. A partially charged battery pack needs to be re-charged
earlier. A Li-Ion battery will be destroyed if it is fully depleted. The battery pack capacity
will decrease over time, because of aging of the battery pack.

WARNING
Stop immediately using MyLab and disconnect the mains power if the system functions in
an abnormal manner, produces unusual sounds or smell or overheats. In any of these
cases please contact your Esaote representative

WARNING
Do NOT open or alter batteries.

WARNING
If the battery is incorrectly installed it may explode. Replace only with same type.

DOC # 81B40SM04 18 Esaote Europe


Battery status and charging icon
The battery icon on the touch screen is located on the right side of the control tabs. The fill
level in the icon and the color indicates the status of the battery.
The residual operating time will be displayed if the battery icon is pressed.
The battery icon will be colored red and an exclamation mark will be flashing on top of the
icon when the charge level of the battery pack reaches a certain minimum that is needed
for proper operation. The following message will then appear:

MyLab automatically switches off when the minimum charge for proper operation is
reached. The following warning message will then appear:

The charge icon is located next to the battery icon. If it is visible, MyLab is
connected to the mains power and the battery pack is being charged.

Battery status led and ON/OFF button


A battery status led is located inside the ON/OFF button on the left side of the
system. The led color indicates both the status of the battery and status of the mains
power connection. There are six possible options:

mains power (battery fully charged).

GREEN DIM MyLab system is ON and not connected to


the mains power.

GREEN DIM/FLASHING MyLab system is shutting down and not


connected to the mains power.

DOC # 81B40SM04 19 Esaote Europe


There is an LCD indicator at the side of the internal battery. The LCD indicates the status
of the battery even when the system is switched off.

Charging Procedure
The battery pack is always recharged if the scanner is connected to the mains power
independently from the fact that the system is on or off. The most efficient way to charge
the battery pack is to connect the system to the mains power without switching the unit on.
A battery, which has not been used for some time, needs to be recharged before
operation.

CAUTION
Charge the MyLab only with the provided mains adapter.
Manufacturer/Model:
Protek Power

DOC # 81B40SM04 22 Esaote Europe


2.8 Touch Screen Calibration
The calibration of the touch screen can be done from the SETTINGS tab and the MENU
button. In SYSTEM SETUP choosing the CALIBRATE TOUCHSCREEN key, the calibration mark will
be activated for 10 seconds. Pressing on the mark will activate the procedure, if not
pressed, the system will go back to the initial screen.

NOTE
It is important to make use of the touch screen stylus for accurate calibration.

Use the touch screen stylus to point out the calibration marks on the screen and follow the
procedure according to the system. When the procedure is finished, the system returns to
the initial screen.

When performing the calibration of the touch screen it could be the case that the last
part of the calibration (the verification part) is difficult to complete. This can be caused
by a calibration that is not executed accurate enough.
To avoid this an USB mouse can be connected to the unit. If connected the mouse
pointer will be visible. In this way the location on the screen that is touched with the
stylus is visable (i.e. the mouse pointer will move to the location that is touched).This
procedure should ease the verification part of the touch screen calibration.

7 ESD

7.1 What is ESD


Electro Static Discharge (ESD) is the transmission of electro static charges between
two bodies with a potential difference.
This transmission can be achieved by direct contact or by an inducted electro static
field.

Electro static discharges are not always noticed by men, because ESD is:
• sensed at 3.500 Volt
• audible at 4.500 Volt
• visible at 5.000 Volt

Components and integrated circuits are more sensitive as men and might be damaged
by lower voltage discharges.

Device type ESD withstand voltage sensitivity


(V) HBM
MR heads, RF FETs 10 - 100
Power MOSFETs 100 - 300V
PIN diodes, laser diodes
Pre - 1990 VLSI 400 - 1000V
Modern VSLI 1000 - 3000V
HCMOS 1500 - 3000V
CMOS B Series 2000 - 5000 V
Linear MOS 800 - 4000 V
Small geometry older bipolar 600 - 6000 V
Small geometry modern bipolar 2000 - 8000 V
Power bipolar 7000 - 25000 V
Film resistor 1000 - 5000 V

7.2 Preventing ESD damage


• Use electro static sensitive parts only in an ESD safe workshop.
• Use ESD safe packing material.
• Remove all static chargeable materials (plastics) from the workshop.
• Wear ESD safe clothing.
• Always check wrist strap and other ESD equipment before use.
• Be grounded.
• BE AWARE.

7.3 ESD save workshop
To be sure that there is no potential difference between body, boards and work
surface, the work surface should be made of electrostatic dissipative rubber.
The work surface should be connected to a central ground point.
The engineer, handling the boards should also be connected to the central ground
point, either through wrist strap or heal strap (and conductive floor).

DOC # 81B40SM04 66 Esaote Europe


7.4 ESD safe field service
To enable ESD field safe service an ESD field service kit has to be used when
handling boards.
This ESD field service kit should be connected to a central ground point and the
service engineer should be connected to the ESD field service kit through a wrist
strap.
Handle boards only on this ESD field service kit and pack in ESD safe packing
material.
