Medical Office One - Requirements and installation
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hardware
The minimum system requirements for running Medical Office One are:
| • |
1024x768 screen resolution |
| • |
300 MB hard drive space |
The recommended system requirements for running Medical Office One are:
| • |
1280+ screen resolution |
Software
The following software must be installed on your system to run Medical Office One:
| • |
Windows XP Service Pack 2,3 or Vista or Windows 7. |
| • |
Optional Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Excel. |
| • |
Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0. Medical Office One is using Microsoft’s .NET 2.0 platform, which your computer may already have installed from other software. Medical Office One will automatically detect if you need to install .NET |
Networking
| • |
Networked versions require a TCP/IP network. |
| • |
Networked versions require that each workstation have a Workstation installation of Medical Office One installed on it. |
| • |
Networked versions require that only one Full installation of Medical Office One installed on the networked computers. |
| • |
Configure SQL Server to allow remote connections. |
Installation types
There are two types of installations available from installer:
1. Full installation: Is for the main user and Server setup. Installs Interface (application code), and Databases. Creates also server directories for images and other files related to patient.
2. Workstation installation: Is for client computers on your network (i.e. Secretary Office)(If you have 2 or more computer in your medical office, and want multiple users can access and share information). Installs Interface without Database, SQL Server 2005 Express and directories for files and images. The user read all data and images from server.
Important: Only one Full installation must exist on your network!
Full Installation for one user:
|
Make sure the hardware and software requirements are fulfilled. |
|
Install Medical Office One by double clicking on the downloaded Setup........exe.and choose Full Installation. |
|
Due to multi user configuration of Medical Office One it is recommended to do not change the default installation directory C:\MOfficeOne during initial install. For the average user the initial configuration is more than enough. In any case do not install Medical Office One in Windows default directories (Program Files, My Documents, Documents and Settings). You can change everything you want later. |
Network setup. Installation for multiple users:
If you have 2 or more computer in your medical office, and want multiple users can access and share information, then read the following information:
You will run Medical Office One from one main computer (your host computer or “server”), and all other computers will access the program over the network through a Workstation Installation. Once Medical Office One has been installed on the network, all maintenance procedures for the database may only be run from the Host/Server (side of full installation) computer.
Before anything else prepare and setup a working network!! Check all the connections. Consult an IT professional if needed.
Netwoking Vista and XP
Networking Windows 7
To set up Medical Office One in a network, you must ensure that one computer is prepared as the server (full installation) and the rest as clients. This means that the server computer will be the one storing all the information (created, modified and saved by users on other computers) in its database.The other client computers would not save any information on their own, but would access this information from the server. Deciding which computer will be the server and which others will be the clients is important. The following steps highlight this:
Microsoft Access Database Engine
Note: The first time you run Medical Office One after a Workstation Installation, you will be prompted to provide the path for data tables.
1. Decide which computer in your network is going to act as the server (a UPS protected PC with high performance be the server) and perform a Full Installation in a shared folder or hard disk ( Never in Program Files).
To turn Folder Sharing on or off in Windows XP Professional, follow these steps:
- Right-click the folder, and then click Sharing and Security.
- Click Share this folder in the network.
- Select a name for the shared folder.
To turn Folder Sharing on or off in Windows Vista, follow these steps:
Turn ON network discovery
Turn ON file and printer sharing
Turn ON sharing in the Public folder sharing section
Turn ON password protected sharing
1. Right-click any folder and click Share.
2. If you’re not password protecting your shares click Share in the File sharing window.
3. If you are password protecting your shares select the individual users you want to have access to this share from the drop down list next to the Add button.
4. Click Share.
To turn Folder Sharing on or off in Windows 7:
Go to Control Panel>All Control Panel Items>Network and Sharing Center. Click on "Change advanced sharing settings". You don't want to use Homegroup unless you have all Windows 7 machines. If you do and you want to use Homegroup, see Windows 7's Help & Support. Otherwise, in the Advanced Sharing:
Turn ON network discovery
Turn ON file and printer sharing
Turn ON sharing in the Public folder sharing section
Turn ON password protected sharing
1. Right-click the Medical Office One folder, and then click Share with.
2. Click Specific people ( to share on a workgroup or domain).
3. Select an account.
2. Perform a workstation installation in each client workstation. Important: only one Full installation must exist on your network!
