Service Software Introduction
1syngo Service Information
Overview 0
The Service Software is designed to follow the Med Software General Error Concept as
described in General Error Concept Med, Specification Catalog. The Service Software pro-
vides the Siemens ACUSON X300, AUCSON X300 Premium Edition and SONOVISTA
X300 ultrasound systems with the mechanism to comply with the General Error Con-
cept.The Service Software of SW versions 1.0/2.0/3.0 are based on the syngo Lite VE25A.
The Service Software of SW versions 4.0 and higher are based on the syngo Lite VE31F.
However, they have a unique customer UI compared to other syngo based modalities so
the steps that the user must take to enter some of the service applications is not common
with other modalities. Once a service application has been entered, the functionality is as
similar as possible to the standard syngo equivalent. Where the behavior differs from stan-
dard syngo behavior, it is noted within this document.The Service Software functions allow
the user to check the operation of the hardware and to detect failed circuit boards. Use the
methods described in this section to investigate the cause of malfunctions and the circum-
stances that existed when the malfunction occurred. The Service Software screens sup-
port only the English language.
CAUTION The installation and service of the equipment described here

are to be performed by qualified personnel who are employed
by Siemens or one of its affiliates or who are otherwise
authorized by Siemens or one of its affiliates to provide such
services.
Assemblers and other persons who are not employed
by or otherwise directly affiliated with or authorized by
Siemens or one of its affiliates are directed to contact
one of the local offices of Siemens or one of its affili-
ates before attempting installation or service proce-
dures.

6 Local Service Software Access
2-
Overview
2Local Service Software Access
Local Service Software Access is a service session that is displayed locally on the system
using the systems control panel, keyboard, and monitor. For local users of the ultrasound
system, the entry point for Service functionality is the Presets, then Service menu. The Ser-
vice menu is an ultrasound-specific page, which is visible only to local users. It is not a part
of the syngo Service User Interface (UI); however, part of its functionality is to provide a link
for the user to open the syngo Service UI. This dialog provides information to the user as
detailed below.
1. Go to the Preset Main screen by selecting the Preset button on the Control Panel of the
system.
Fig. 1: Preset Main Screen

3-
Overview
3Remote Service Software Access
Remote Service Software Access is a service session where the service UI is executed
from some other location. It is used by network connection; a stand-alone PC which is con-
nected to the system via an Ethernet crossover cable, or a remote PC which is connected
via a LAN connection. This allows a Customer Service Engineer to perform service tasks
on a system without being at the physical location of the system. Remote Service Software
Access differs from a Local Service Software Access in that access is controlled by the
ultrasound user via the Remote Service Access Control dialog.
1. Click Remote button in the Service Main screen to display the Remote Service Access
Control Dialog.

Remote Service Software Access 9
The following figure shows the Remote Service Access Control Dialog.
Fig. 4: Remote Service Access Control Dialog

The default setting is 'No Access' (ACUSON X300 r5.0 or below systems) and 'Limited
Access Permanent' (ACUSON X300 r6.0 or higher systems). The Limited Access Per-
manent / Limited Access allow for remote access to the system without interrupting the
customers normal work flow. Certain service functionality needs full access permis-
sion from the user, so that remote personnel can perform those functions, such as sys-
tem diagnostics. At any time, the customer can select No access to terminate the
remote accessibility, so the system can be used mobile.
Tab. 1 Remote Service Access Control Dialog.
Mode Description
Full Access All Service Software func-
tions are available. The sys-
tem is assigned exclusively
to the remote session.
Limited Access The modem port will be con-
Permanent tinuously available.

Mode Description
Limited Access The modem port will be
available for a configurable
time after it has been
enabled. If the remote login
does not occur during this
time period, the modem port
is disabled automatically.
No Access User does not allow the
remote access.
The customer can change the access mode from Limited Access or Limited Access
Permanent to Full Access and vice versa at anytime. The customer has to confirm the
end of the current service mode in a pop-up window.

Mail Screen
This menu item allows the configuration of the mail target for the Auto Report function and
for the Service center provided in the Customer User Interface at Option - Remote Service.
A target is defined by a mail server and a mail account on that server and may be reachable
via LAN, e.g., a router, or via RAS, e.g., a modem.
The procedure is performed in two steps. First, configure the host name and IP address
and RAS settings (only if the target is accessible via modem) of the mail targets. Then enter
the e-mail address for this server. For the Siemens Remote Server (SRS), enter an e-mail
address known at the mail server connected to the Siemens Remote Server.
The following figures show the Main screen.
Fig. 25: Mail Screen - 1st Screen

Every field has to be filled in with Host data, especially, ensure the mail server TCP/IP data
is entered into the TCP/P address field.
NOTE The host name may contain up to 15 characters. The charac-

ters [_] and [-] should be avoided, since they could cause
problems (even though it is possible to enter them).

Tab. 9 Main Items 1st. Screen

Host Name Enter the host name of the mail target.
Find Select the Find button to check whether the host name is known at
the WINS or the Domain Name Server (DNS). If the name is found,
the IP address is entered in the TCP/IP address box.
TCP/IP Address If no DNS is used, manually enter the IP address into these boxes.
RAS requires two IP addresses - one for the local system and the
second for the remote system. For RAS, enter the second IP
address.
Test Select the Test button to send a PING command to the correspond-
ing IP address.
A TCP/IP ping may fail for the following reasons:
The remote host is turned off or not in the same network (or sub-
net), or the gateway is not configured.
TCP/IP address is configured incorrectly.
Any networking device (router, switch, bridge,...) denies access
to the other network.
If the mail target is connected via a router, select the LAN button. If the target mail server
is to be accessed via modem, select the RAS radio button. The following menu items are
activated if there is an RAS connection:

FTP Screen
This menu item allows the configuration of the file transfer target (FTP) for the Auto Report
and for the File Tools function. A target is defined by an FTP server and a FTP account on
that server and may be reachable via LAN (e.g., a router), or via RAS (e.g., a modem).
1. Configure the host name and IP address and RAS settings (only if the target is accessi-
ble via modem) of the FTP targets.
2. Enter the DTP account for the server.
The following figure shows the FTP screen.

Fig. 27: FTP Screen - 1st Screen

Every field has to be filled in with Host data, especially the mail server TCP/IP data has to
be entered into the TCP/P address field.
NOTE The host name may contain up to 15 characters. The charac-

ters [_] and [-] should be avoided, since they could cause
problems (even though it is possible to enter them).

Tab. 14 FTP Items 1st Screen

Host Name Enter the host name of the mail target.
Find Select the Find button to check whether the host name is known at
the WINS or the Domain Name Server (DNS). If the name is found,
the IP address is entered in the TCP/IP address box.
TCP/IP Address If no DNS is used, then manually enter the IP address into these
boxes. RAS requires two IP addresses - one for the local system
and the second for the remote system. For RAS, enter the second
IP address.
Test Select the Test button to send a PING command to the correspond-
ing IP address.
A TCP/IP ping may fail for the following reasons:
The remote host is turned off or not in the same network (or sub-
net), or the gateway is not configured.
TCP/IP address is configured incorrectly.
Any networking device (router, switch, bridge,...) denies access
to the other network.
If the mail target is connected via a router, select the LAN button. If the target FTP server
is to be accessed via modem, select the RAS radio button. In case of an RAS connection,
the following menu items are activated:

ommended to use a comma (,) to separate the number to be
dialed to get an outside line from the phone number.
PPP Login The logical name used for the script for automatic login to the
Script remote RAS (mail) target is displayed and does not need to be
changed.
PPP Domain The logon domain in the remote network is currently not used by the
Siemens Remote Server.
PPP Account Enter the login user name used for authentication on the remote
system. For the Siemens Remote Server, the PPP account
(Pmr9999) should be the combination of capital P, the lower case
modality type mr, and the serial number, e.g., 9999. This entry is
case-sensitive. The same account has to be entered at the Siemens
Remote Server. It is checked when the Siemens Remote Server is
logged into.
PPP Pass- Enter the login password used for authentication on the remote sys-
word/Verify PPP tem. This entry is case-sensitive and needs to be known at the Sie-

these options if the customer does not want automatic transfer of auto reporting messages.

Fig. 29: Auto Transfer Screen
System Management 0
System Management enables additional service functionality like proactive event monitor-
ing and software distribution. For this functionality, the so-called Managed Node Package
(MNP), which delivers the required agents on the system, is pre-installed. The System
Management configuration specifies the back-end server, then installs all the agents and
activates them.
NOTE The System Management is supported from SW version 4.0.

Master Screen
NOTE The system management option is provide as IBC from SW

version 6.0.02 and above. The major dfference between the
MNP and the IBC is the way they establishing a connection.
Refer to (US11-104.843.01 / Siemens Remote Services Con-
figuration R6.0.02 and Above) for details.
In this mask, the automatically assigned System Management Master Server (server name
and IP address), which is taken from the selected Remote Service Center in the Service &
Time Zone mask, is shown.
Fig. 30: Master Screen
Define Other
If a different System Management Master Server needs to be configured for test purposes
or if the server differs from the predefined one, this check-box is marked. This allows the
user to fill in the differing Software Distribution Server IP Address in the IP entry field.

Server Network Address Translation

The three (3) listed servers (Asset, Event, Software Distribution Server) are the back-end
servers for the System Management functions. In a standard network environment, the IP
addresses for these servers are retrieved from the SD Server already configured during the
registration procedure. In some cases, the network administration only allows their own
address range, which would consequently sup press any traffic with the original IP address.
Therefore, the Server Network Address Translation box must be checked and addresses
within the allowed address range must be entered for each server.
Local Host Network Address Translation

If the on-site router for the SRS connection uses NAT (Network Address Translation), this
check-box is selected, and the NAT IP address assigned to the original IP address, as
shown in the first field, has to be reentered into the enabled address entry field.
The Test button initiates a PING command to the configured SD Server IP address. A
TCP/IP ping may fail for the following reasons:
The remote host is turned off or not in the same network (or subnet), or the gateway is
not configured.
The TCP/IP address is configured incorrectly.
Any networking device (router, switch, bridge,...) denies access to the other network.
NOTE The Reset button is available only if a value has been

changed. Use the Next button to switch to the Agent Control
page, keeping the entered values. Use the Go button on the
Agent Control page to save the System Management Config-
urations. The Save button can only be used if the System
Management Server is online.
Agent Controls Screen
