Standalone CR 800 System
An individual CR 800 can be used in a small hospital or clinical setting, either in an exam room or in a separate room. In this configuration, Patient, Exam, and Cassette
(PEC) information is entered into the CR 800 via the TOUCH SCREEN or the HAND-HELD BARCODE READER. Additionally standalone CR 800 systems can receive
patient information from the HIS/RIS system of the facility to communicate with output devices and archives.
A standalone system may also use a REMOTE OPERATIONS PANEL in the same or another room. In all cases, the standalone CR800 System must have access to
an output device for printing and/or viewing the images.
Clustered CR 800 Systems
Several CR 800 Systems and ROPs can be configured in a cluster to include:
• From 1 to 5 CR 800 Systems
• From 0 to 10 REMOTE OPERATIONS PANELS
Each device in the cluster, whether a CR 800 or a ROP, can communicate with every other device in that cluster. While there is no limit to the number of clusters that
may exist on a network at the same time, devices can communicate only with other devices in their own cluster.
Connecting to the Hospital System
All the CR 800 and ROP devices communicate over the facility's 10 BaseT or 100 BaseT Ethernet network and can communicate with all connected DICOM-
conformaing digital imaging equipment that has been qualified with the Kodak DigitalScience MEDICAL IMAGE MANAGER (MIM) and CR 800. Physical connections
to the facility's netward are via site-provided Category 5 cabling. Additionally, the customer must provide a Mitra Gateway Broker (or equivalent Kodak-qualified
gateway device) to enable access to their HIS/RIS system.
