The present invention automatically performs inspections including: inspection by a power source inspecting section of a power source that supplies power from a main ultrasonic observation unit to an ultrasonic endoscope; inspection by a transmission signal inspecting section of a transmission signal Tx and a 3D drive clock from the main ultrasonic observation unit to the ultrasonic endoscope; inspection by an encoder inspecting section of a Phase A and Phase Z; inspection by a code inspecting section of a scanner code and a frequency code from the ultrasonic endoscope 3 to the main ultrasonic observation unit; and inspection by a position sensor signal inspecting section of a position sensor signal from the ultrasonic endoscope to the main ultrasonic observation unit. In this way, failure conditions of the ultrasonic endoscope apparatus can be readily determined. |
