• Zone—Enter a code that relates to a specific region of the facility, such as
an entire floor, building, or wing. Stations within that region are assigned
the same zone to facilitate inventory tasks. Many console reports print
information sorted by zone.
• Anchor Page—Select the setting that controls how long the station
remains accessible from the Pick a Med or Pick a Patient dialog box
without going through a login process.
• Show Patient 2nd ID—Select from the drop-down list determined by
your facility.
• InService/OutofService—Allows you to change the service status of the
displayed station. (This option appears after you save the current
information.)
• Brain Transplant—Restores a station's database from an error condition,
such as a corrupted file, which prevents the station from operating
correctly. (This option appears after you save the current information.)
3. Set the timeout options, as necessary:
• Anch Pg Timeout—In hours (0–99) and minutes (0–59), enter the time
after which the Anchor Page expires and you are logged off due to
keyboard inactivity. This option works in conjunction with the Anchor
Page option.
• Menu Timeout—In minutes (0–99) and seconds (0–59), enter the time
after which you are logged out due to lack of activity at the station.
Depending on the location, security, and intended use for this station, you
might want to make the timeout duration short (30 seconds) or long
(5 minutes).
• Discharge Delay—In hours (0–99) and minutes (0–59), enter the time to
keep a patient's information accessible at the station after that patient is
discharged. This ensures that care providers can access a patient's
medications for some time after the discharge is processed in the ADT
system.
• Tx Hold Time—Enter the number of hours (1–32) transaction
information is held at the station to appear on station reports. After the
specified period of time, transaction information is purged from the
station: all transaction information is always sent to and maintained by the
console for up to 31 days.
• Open Drw Timeout—In minutes (0–99) and seconds (0–59), enter the
time after which the station beeps and you are logged off because a
drawer is left open and there is no keyboard or monitor activity.
