1 Start the Transmission Processor

Use this option to start the transmission processor. Once started, the transmission processor will begin processing entries in the transmission queue.

ÂAs the transmission processor sends exams to Imaging destinations, it will map and un-map certain drives. For more information, see page 66.

If a single transmission processor cannot manage a site’s routing workload, additional transmission processors, each sending images to a subset of destinations, can be started using this option. For detailed steps, see page 51.

2 Stop the Transmission Processor

Use this option to stop all running instances of the transmission processor. When this option is executed, a flag is set that the transmission processor will recognize as “stop processing.” The transmission processor checks this flag after transmitting each image file.

ÂStopping the transmission processor can result in an incomplete exam being sent to a destination. If this occurs, the remainder of the exam will be transmitted when the transmission processor is re-started, provided that the applicable entries in the transmission queue are still present.
