Job and Interface Settings

Description: This job process checks for new requests and in the queue. It also opens a port for incoming status changes and reports.

 

Job Settings

  • The job execution should be set to run every few minutes, allowing enough time in between to process any incoming results. Between one and three minutes should be sufficient for most data centers.

  • For best results, run this job on a dedicated API server.

  • The error to email address should go to a systems administrator with VetView admin privileges who is able to monitor the messages.

Port Settings

The Syngo Dynamics instrument should have a fixed IP address on your network, and your API server will open a port to receive these messages in the incoming IP Address section.

As communication is bidirectional, you should also confirm the IP address and the open port on your medQ instrument, and add those to the settings as well.

Additional Settings

If your hospital has multiple machines from Syngo Dynamics, you can designate the name of the machine that this Job and Interface controls to distinguish between them.

You can send a copy of each new request to a designated email address for monitoring.

HL7 settings should be VetView as the Sending Application and Syngo as the receiving application. Your facility will be your hospital name.

Each unit in your hospital that has a catalog marked as a RIS/PACS unit will display on this list. Indicate which ones are allowed to communicate with Syngo Dynamics on this list.

 

Required Hospital Setup

Under the Catalog Setup you must check the “Send to Interface” button and add the URL for your Syngo Dynamics portal.

 

Only the Catalogs that have this flag turned on will display in the Syngo Dynamics job interface.

These catalogs should be set to type Request (so they can be ordered by other Units in the hospital.)

Message Log

Both the incoming and outgoing messages are displayed in the Message Log.

You can filter the log by dates, or search for a message by Patient ID or Request ID.

 

Request Event Queue

Syngo Dynamics meters processing of its requests with a queue. The queue will display all current known requests and their current statuses.

 

Outbound Message Log

This section displays the outbound event messages from VetView to the Syngo Dynamics interface.

 

Incoming Message Log

This section displays the event messages sent from Syngo Dynamics to VetView.
