Configurate the Perimeter Connection

Important

The perimeter connection is independant of the integration of PeriData with the medical record software. In case of new installation or change of device, we set up the connection together with your IT specialist. The connection is installed ONLY AT ONE WORKSTATION (in the perimeter room). There, the device type is set in the options dialog. All other workstations have NO perimeter connection: they are reading the stored data from the central database (ViewingMode). They do not need reconfiguration when the perimeter device is changed.

Principle (all perimeters)

1: Physical Connection: Depending on the device type by cable, via network or by installing PeriData on the same PC as the perimeter control software

2: Perimeter - Export: In the perimeter software, some settings are done to make the perimeter ready to send data correctly

3: PeriData - Import: Inside PeriData, the import interface is configurated. The setting is in the menu Extra >> Options >> Perimeter

4: PeriData - Patient Data Export: (optional) PeriData is capable to export patient key data (name, date of birth..) in the GDT format and even start the perimeter program. The export settings are in the menu Extra >> Options >> Perimeter

5: Perimeter - Patient Data Import (optional) The GDT import interface in the perimeter software is configurated to import the patient key data. Some perimeter types have no GDT interface

Please note

If the perimeter PC is a terminal in a Terminal Server Architecture, there are a few special features to consider. Please read this carefully: Terminal Server Configuration
