presses increase the gate size. Downward presses decrease the
gate size.
Sweep
Speed
Sweep adjusts the sweep speed of the Doppler strip. Options of
Slow, Low, Med., High and Fast are available. Upward presses
increase sweep speed. Downward presses decrease sweep

Strip Size
Format changes the relative size of the Doppler strip compared to
the reference image. Full, Large, Med. and Small are available.
Volume
Volume adjusts the audio volume of the Doppler strip. This can
be adjusted in pre-Doppler to set the initial volume upon invoking
Doppler acquisition.
Duplex
(Triplex)
This determines if the strip mode and reference image are
imaging simultaneously or not. If the reference image is B-mode
this is labeled “Duplex”. If the reference image includes color this
is labeled “Triplex”.
Image Type
Strip Doppler supports image presets for Low Flow, Medium
Flow, and High Flow.
Steer
This control is only available for linear transducers. It steers the
Doppler cursor angle left or right.
Frequency
This determines the Doppler transmit frequency used for
imaging.
Auto Trace
Press to activate the Auto Trace function on a real-time or frozen
PW Doppler strip.
The Auto Trace function automatically traces the spectral
Doppler waveform and records several measurements on
selected general imaging. See section 7.3.1 for details.
