Desktop Viewer
The Advanced Settings page contains three subset settings pages:
| Streaming Settings | Default | Description |
| Use Optimal Streaming | Enabled | Web socket is used when enabled (default). Web socket streaming is the optimal method for image downloading. When disabled, legacy image downloading method is used |
| Stream Logging | Disabled | Detailed logging for streaming communication |
| Streaming Image Behavior | Show thumbnail | How streaming images behave when they are not downloaded yet |
| Logging Settings | Default | Description |
| Create log file | Enabled | When enabled, the viewer will create a log file about user activity. |
| WMI logging | Disabled | When enabled, the viewer will write WMI activity into the log file. |
| Create crash log | Enabled | If the eRAD PACS viewer crashes, this setting allows the viewer to create a log file to help identify the problem. |
Create net dumps |
Enabled | Net dumps are created when the viewer encounters a network problem. As these errors have a tendency to happen multiple times in a row, the corresponding logs usually contain redundant information. Consider disabling net dump sending to preserve server storage and network bandwidth |
| Maximum age of unsent log files (in days) | 30 | Log files older than the specified age are automatically purged. If set to 0, log files are kept indefinitely. |
| Maximum age of sent log files (in days) | 3 | Log files sent to the server are purged if they're older than the maximum age. If set to 0, sent log files are kept indefinitely. |
| Maximum number of log files | 25 | If the number of log files in any category (session, crash, net) exceeds the maximum amount, the oldest log is purged. Set to 0 to allow any number of log files. Applied on a per category basis. |
| General Settings | Default | Description |
| Enable Standby Mode | Enabled | If the standby mode was enabled, the viewer won't be closed when the frames are clicked closed. The viewer will only be visible on the taskbar. |
| Show Tooltips | Enabled | Tooltips are popup text strings that help identify the functions of a tool. When enabled, tooltips appear after you place the cursor over a button, field or gauge in the viewer. When disabled, no tooltips appear. |
| Cache settings | Default | Description |
| Clear cache | None | None:
Cached data is not removed upon viewer exit or sign off.
