Chapter 3—Installing the Diagnostic Workstation

1.0 Installing a Stand-Alone or Client Workstation

1.1 Pre-installation Considerations
This section applies to installation of new:
• Stand-alone workstations.
• Client Workstations that are installed as part of a multi-workstation system.
Prior to beginning the installation, discuss the following with the installation site:
• An IP address and AE title for the Manager should be obtained from the PACS
administrator, and the site must be informed that an additional Ethernet port is required.
• SecurViewDX can process “For Processing” images only if they are older than five days
and are considered to be prior images. For this reason, any site where SecurViewDX is to
be installed must have been generating “For Presentation” images for all new studies for
at least five days.
• The SecurViewDX software is capable of storing annotations and study state information
to a PACS as a DICOM GSPS object. Check with the site to determine if they want to
store this information to the PACS. If so, note the PACS vendor and PACS software
version and contact Selenia Support to confirm that the PACS has been validated.
• The SecurViewDX software now supports “auto-fetching”. This allows for automatic
querying of the PACS upon arrival of new studies to determine if prior images exist. This
capability is important for PACS that do not support pre-fetching. Check with the site to
determine if they want to enable this feature.
• In the event of unforeseen issues that arise during installation, contact Selenia Support.

Management” in the SecurViewDX Diagnostic Workstation User/Administrator
Guide).
• DICOM Entities (#2): Displays in alphabetical order the connected entity types
and provides tools for editing and deleting entities or sending an echo to an
entity.
• DICOM Setup (#3): Contains entries to configure an entity type by AE Title
(AET), IP Address and Port. All fields have to be filled out before a new entity
can be saved and added to the list on the left hand side.
• Additional PACS Settings (vendor dependent) (#4): Contains entries to support
configuring multiple entities and ports for Storage and Query/Retrieve.
Information can be found in the PACS documentation.

2.3 Configuring a Multi-Workstation

The service user is responsible for configuring the system type. Each system can be
set to a dedicated type by using the Multi-Workstation tab card.
Configurable items are system type (client, manager, or stand-alone workstation as
Diagnostic Workstation) and manager network address.

Figure 4-4: Multi-Workstation Tab: Configuration of System Type

The multi-workstation configuration consists of three radio buttons that allow the
service user to select the workstation type:
• Stand-Alone Workstation
The workstation is a single SecurViewDX Diagnostic Workstation, without a
connection to a Multi-Workstation Manager.
• Client
The Diagnostic Workstation is a client within a multi-workstation system. If the
Multi-Workstation Client option is selected, the Multi-Workstation manager
address (either as DNS name or as IP address) can be entered in the “Manager
Address” text field. The Check button is also enabled. The Check button checks
for the availability of the entered network address.
• Multi-Workstation Manager
The machine is a manager in a multi-workstation system.

2.3.1 Licensing Information

For each of the 3 workstation types, there is a separate license. The “Multi-Workstation”
tab is accessible regardless of the installed licenses. To access reviewing or to perform
any action in the patient browser, a valid license for the configured workstation type
must be installed. See Section 3.2, p. 4-14 for details on licensing procedures.
To check licensing information and image processing configuration while logged
into the SecurViewDX software using a service account:
1. Click the Administration tab on the right-hand side of the right monitor.
2. Click the Licensing tab.
3. Compare the license information with the information that came with the system.
4. If they do not agree, enter the same Feature and Generation information in the
corresponding edit boxes.
5. Enter new license number and press the Check button.
6. Select the Info tab and make sure that you can see Library Version and Image
Processing Version information.
2.3.2 Image Processing Configuration—Deleting Images
Images can be deleted manually or automatically.
• Manual Deletion
If images are deleted manually on a client or on the Manager, those images
are cleaned up on all clients and on the Manager, i.e., the prepared images
are deleted everywhere and the DICOM files are deleted from the manager.
• Automatic Deletion
Automatic deletion, if configured, is triggered when the hard disk level
exceeds the warning watermark level.
In a multi-workstation system, automatic deletion behavior is different for a
Manager and for a Client.
• Manager
If the manager reaches its warning watermark level, images and patient data
start auto-deleting. Those image deletions are propagated to all clients, so
the clients remove their locally stored prepared image data for those images.
• Client
If a client reaches its warning watermark level, its locally stored prepared
image data, CAD-SR, starts auto-deleting. Since this data is not removed
from the database, it is still available on the manager, and the data still
appears e.g., in the patient browser, and can be reviewed.
If this happens, the client re-retrieves the previously deleted data from the
manager. If this is the case, a message “Images are being transferred” is
displayed on the screen in the reviewing module, until all images for the
currently viewed case are locally available. Automatic deletion on one
client has no effect on other clients or on the manager.
Every client and the manager have their own individual definition of the
local watermark levels.
2.3.3 Image Processing Configuration—Image Export
Images and DICOM files are always exported locally on a client workstation. An
export of images to remote clients or to the manager is not possible. The
exported images can be saved to a CD locally on every client.

Converting Stand-Alone Workstations to Clients

3.0 Converting Stand-Alone Workstations to Clients

This section applies both to a new installation of a multi-workstation system as well as to
existing stand-alone workstations which are being converted to Client Workstations with the
addition of a SecurViewDX Manager. For a new installation, first follow instructions for stand-
alone or Client Workstation Installation to set the new workstations up in stand-alone mode,
then continue with this section.

3.1 Pre-Installation Checklist—Existing Stand-alone

If this installation involves existing stand-alone Workstations which are being re-configured
as part of a Multi-Workstation system:
1. Make sure that all workstations are currently at SecurViewDX V2-0-1 or higher. If they
are currently configured with an earlier version, e.g., Selenia SCW V2-0-1, upgrade to
SecurViewDX V2-0-1 before proceeding. See kit ASY-00911.
2. In order to minimize the installation time, as many cases as possible should be deleted
from each workstation using the Case Administrator account. No more than 50 cases
should remain in the patient list before the conversion is begun. The following steps
should be performed:
a. Have the users read as many cases as possible prior to the upgrade.
b. Delete all Read cases from the system using the Case Administrator (delete) account
(not from the Service account).
c. Delete all older cases, regardless of the status. Hologic recommends that only the
last 1-2 days of unread cases be saved

3.2 Converting
1. On a workstation that is to be configured as a Client, log in to the SecurViewDX
application as the service user and select Exit to Windows.
2. From the Start menu, select Log Off scr.
3. At the Windows login prompt, log into Windows as Administrator.
4. Ensure that the Windows System time matches the Manager’s Windows system time by
opening a Command prompt and typing:
net time \\<MANAGER-IP> /set
where the <MANAGER-IP> is the Manager IP recorded in a previous section.
5. Log out and log in as SCR.
6. Log in to the application as the service user.
7. Update the appropriate license keys for the Client Workstation.

Note… SecurViewDX requires new license keys. A master list of license keys is
included in the e:\mbc-scr-1\Hologic-Service\license_keys.txt file. For
each softcopy workstation, note the ID printed on the dongle (begins with
8-5E7…), then search the license_keys.txt file to locate the appropriate
keys. If the keys cannot be located, contact the Hologic Help Desk.
a. Log in to the application as the service user.
b. Select Administration
c. Select the Licensing tab.

g. Press Migrate.
• After the migration is complete, both the Client and the Manager restart and
synchronize.
• When the system restarts, the Client synchronizes with the Manager. The length
of time it takes to synchronize depends on how much data is on the system.
h. Repeat this section for all clients in the multi-workstation system.

3.2.1 Dialog Elements

The dialog elements of the Workstation Integration dialog have the following
functions:

Table 4-1: Dialog Elements of Workstation Integration Dialog

Element Type Description

Manager Text Field IP address or host name of the manager of the multi-workstation
system where the single workstation is integrated.
This is copied from “Manager Address” entered in the “Settings”
tab folder.
Migrate Image Check Box Check this box to migrate all image data from the single
Data workstation to the specified multi-workstation manager. This data
includes patients, studies, series, and images.
Migrate Check Box This checkbox is only enabled, if the “Migrate Image Data”
Annotations checkbox is checked. In this case annotations and markings on the
local machine are also migrated to the manager (i.e., added to
those markings and annotations that already exist on the
manager).
Since markings and annotations are always tied to a user, this
involves also a partial migration of the system users.
Consequently, the “Migrate Annotations” checkbox enables the
“User Assignment” list view. In this case, the migration dialog
establishes a connection to the multi-workstation manager, and
retrieves all user information from that manager. This is then used
to fill the list view “User Assignment” and the dropdown list “Assign
to Manager User”.
Note that only annotations of those local users that have been
assigned to a manager user are transferred.
Also note that no user preferences or workflow settings are
transferred for the users.
Migrate User Check Box Check this box to migrate the user data on the single workstation
Data to the multi-workstation manager. The user data include user
name, real name, groups, privileges, and user preferences.
Check this box to establish a connection to the multi-workstation
manager and to retrieve all user information from that manager.
This is necessary to fill the list view “User Assignment” and the
dropdown list “Assign to Manager User”.

User List View This list view is only enabled if one or both of the “Migrate User
Assignment Data” or “Migrate Annotations” check boxes are checked. It
displays how the local users (first column) are assigned to users
on the multi-workstation manager (second column). These
manager users either exist, or they are created.
If the user already exists, her or his user data on the manager is
overwritten by the local data of that user. If the manager user is
“[Same]”, the local user and the manager user are considered the
same, but the local user data is not transferred to the manager
(i.e., the manager user data is kept).
If a local user is assigned to the manager user “[None]”, no
migration of the local user is done. This is especially useful for the
two local users “Application” and “Service”, who are not migrated
by default.
Assign to Dropdown This element is only enabled if the check box “Migrate User Data”
Manager User List is checked. The list is filled with the user names of all users on the
multi-workstation manager, in addition to the special values
“[None]” and “[Same]”.
Select a user in the dropdown list, and click the button “Set.” The
local user currently selected in the list view “User Assignment” is
assigned to the selected manager user.
Set Button This dialog element is only enabled if the check box “Migrate User
Data” is checked and a user is selected in the list view “User
Assignment.”
It assigns the user currently selected in the dropdown list “Assign
to Manager User” to the user selected in the list view “User
Assignment”.
New Button This dialog element is only enabled if the check box “Migrate User
Data” is checked.
Click this button to open a dialog where a new user name can be
entered. This user name is added to the dropdown list “Assign to
Manager User”.
Migrate Button Click this button to perform the migration.
If the check box “Migrate Image Data” is checked, all local image
data is moved to the multi-workstation manager.
If the check box “Migrate User Data” is checked, a user data
migration according to the list view “User Assignment” is done. All
user names assigned in this list view, that do not exist on the
manager, are created. All user data of users, that already exists on
the manager, and that are marked for migration in the list view
“User Assignment”, are overwritten by the local user data.
A message box informs that the migration has finished. From now
on the workstation has no more local data, and is integrated into
the specified multi-workstation system.
Confirm this message box to close the migration dialog
automatically.
Cancel Button Close the migration dialog without doing any migration.

1.1 Network Problems on a Client

Network problems can occur at system startup or during normal operation.

1.1.1 Problem occurs during System Startup

If a network error occurs during system startup, the multi-workstation manager cannot be
reached. A startup dialog appears, which allows you to shut down the system or to log the
SCR user off from the operating system.
Every five seconds. the system tries to reach the multi-workstation manager until either the
manager reconnects or the user clicks Shutdown or the Log off from Operating System
button in the system startup dialog.

Figure B-1: Startup Dialog

If the network error has occurred due to a misconfiguration of the manager address on the
client side:
• The Microsoft Windows “Administrator” user can change the address using the separate
tool setmwserver.exe.
• This tool allows you to reconfigure the system type and to set the manager address.

1.1.2 Problem occurs during Normal Operation

If network problems occur, and the manager cannot be reached by a client any
more, this client is inoperable for the time of the network problem. In this case,
perform the following measures on the client (in the stated order):
1. Try to re-establish a connection to the manager after a given time-out has
expired. Time-out and number of retries are configurable in lightbox.ini on the
client using the variables MWS_RetryTimeOut (default: 1) and
MWS_RetryCount (default: 2).

Appendix B—Troubleshooting
Network Problems

2. If the connection could not be re-established, the system displays an error

message and displays a button that allows a manual retry to re-establish the
connection to the manager:
If the user manually tries to re-establish the manager connection, and the
network problem has been removed, two cases must be considered:
• The manager has not yet cleaned up the sessions and locks of the client. In
this case, the user can continue with his work.
• The sessions and locks on the manager are cleaned up. In this case, the user
is logged out on his client, and all work on the current patient is lost.
If the user confirms the error message, or after the auto-logout time has expired,
the user is logged out from the system. If the network problem still exists the
next time a user wants to log in, the login fails with a message that states the
problem.
In all cases, where the user is automatically logged out due to network
problems, a message box is displayed that informs the user about the loss of
work on the current patient.

1.2 Manager (Server)

If the manager encounters a network problem concerning a client, the manager takes the
following measures (in the stated order).
1. Tries to re-establish a client connection until a given time-out has expired (configurable
in lightbox.ini on the manager)
2. After the time-out has expired closes all sessions and releases all locks for the
problematic client. This means, that all work on the current patient gets lost for the user
of that client.
