Connection with the Perimeter

The connection between PeriData and device is set up by interface configuration on both sides. There is no automatic configuration or link. The exact steps depend on the device type. Details are given with the tab "Devices".

The configuration is only defined at the PC beneath the perimeter device. At this workstation PeriData receives the examination data and stores them centrally in a database on the server. All other PC read the stored visual fields from the database and have no direct connection with the perimeter (ViewingMode).

The transmission process is triggered on the device, either by selecting the exams and a send button, or automatically at the end of an examintion. PeriData waits passively for the arrival of data. It is not possible to retrieve data.

Note: The Perimeter always sends a copy of the examination data. The original data remain in the device database and can be accessed with the device software in the usual way.

Note: The perimeter connection is independant of the connection with the medical record software.
