SOCT User Manual Version 10.0 rev. A
When software is configured as Client, there are some limitations applied to its functionality:
- Only client connected to OCT device can perform new examinations.
- In case specific patient’s file is used on any PC connected to database, there is no possibility
to access this patient’s data from any other PC. ‘Selected patient is occupied by another
user’ message is displayed. It means it is not possible to edit, review, perform, remove,
analyze, import, export patients on more than one PC at that same time.
- Users’ accounts modification and settings can be changed from any software application
connected to database on Server.
- All viewing stations need to have access to examination data folders (sharing enabled)
NOTE: Internal network settings should be adjusted by IT personnel to provide free
access and communication between folders. Be aware of firewall exceptions for
SOCT software
NOTE: When sharing database with viewing stations it is mandatory to share data
folders in the network and allow other users read/write rights.
