RETENTION PERIOD

The value of this field determines the number of days routed image files are stored at this destination. A typical value is five days.

Whenever a transmission processor connects to a destination, it checks whether or not it has executed a purge for that destination on that day. If the connection in question is the first of the day and no purge has been executed yet, a purge will be initiated.

During a purge, any image files older than the number of days specified by RETENTION PERIOD are deleted (note that files are always retained at the sending site).

LAST PURGE DATE

The value of this field is set by the transmission processor when it executes a purge.

SITE

The value of this field is a code used by VistARad to identify the source of routed exams. The value of this field can be any text string. In the VistARad software, the value for this field will be shown in the RC (Remote Cache) exam list column.

ROUTER

The value of this field indicates whether or not the shared folder defined in the PHYSICAL REFERENCE field is being used as a routing destination. For routing, the value of this field must be Yes.

TIME OFFLINE

The value of this field will be filled in by the transmission processor if it marks a destination as off-line. For more information, see MAX # RETRY ON CONNECT.

MUSE SITE #

This field is not used for routing. For MUSE EKG network locations, this field contains the MUSE site number assigned by a GE Marquette field engineer during MUSE server installation.

MUSE VERSION #

This field is not used for routing. For MUSE EKG network locations, this field contains the MUSE software version number.
