Installation 

On each computer, set up a command to tell PBS Endo the location of the Tigerview programs and what to name the data file for this computer.  The command is placed in the Environment Variables.  Key in all commands in upper case.

For Windows 2000: Click on Start, Settings, Control Panel, and System.  Select the Advanced Tab, and the Environment Variables button.

For Windows XP:  Click on Start, Settings, Control Panel, Performance and Maintenance, and System.  Select the Advanced Tab, and the Environment Variables button. 

To set up the environment variable:

In the field titled Name, key in PBSTIGER. 

In the field titled Value, key in the path that corresponds to the location of the TigerView program.    For example:  C:\TIGERS\TIGER1.EXE SLAVE1

(During the installation, TigerView has been told where to store the images; this information is also available in the TigerView INI file.)

Daily Use 

With PBS Endo open, make the Currently Selected patient the one whose radiographs you want to either create or review. Make sure TigerView is NOT open.

From the Daily Activity menu in PBS Endo, click on Radiography to launch TigerView. PBS Endo will automatically pass the Currently Selected patient’s information to TigerView which will either display this patient’s current radiographs, or allow you to capture new ones. 

When finished, you must exit TigerView. 

Please note: PBS Endo passes Tigerview the Account # and the SS#. If the SS# is blank, a problem ensues. Therefore, if the patient does not provide the SS#, key in a unique # in the SS# field in PBS Endo.
