Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

The ImageServer user interface is a Web GUI accessible from the machine where the Web components are installed with the URL http://localhost/ImageServer.  The user interface requires that support for Javascript and cookies are enabled.  The user interface is currently only supported on Internet Explorer.

The Interface is divided into 3 primary sections:

Studies

Used to search for studies in the ImageServer and to perform operations on those studies such as moving, deleting and editing.

Queues

There are four queues that the ImageServer uses - Work Queue, Archive Queue, Restore Queue and Study Integrity Queue. The queues can be searched an appropriate operations performed on items in the queue.

Configure

Enables features of the ImageServer to be configured such as Server Partitions, Partition Archives, File Systems, Server Rules, Scheduling and Devices.

All of the screens (with minor exceptions) have six basic components, as shown below:

1. Navigation Menu: The Navigation Menu provides access to the different sections of the ImageServer. The Queues and Configure menu items also have sub menu options.

2. Partition Tabs: The partition tabs enable a user to select which partition they are working with (if there is more than one partition).

3. Search Parameters: The search parameters enable the user to search the section of the ImageServer for the items they are interested in working with.

4. Item Toolbar: The Item toolbar provides operations that can be performed on the items in the search results. Operations that are disabled because they cannot be performed for a particular item are grayed out.

5. Search Toolbar: The Search Toolbar provides next/previous controls for paging through search results and the number of items found.

6. Search Results: This is a table with columns that contains the items that have been returned as a result of a search.

7. User Information: User name, the number of critical alerts, and a Logout link.

 

The various screens have been grouped with their associated features within this documentation.
