2
Start Windows Explorer (choose Start | Run, then type Explorer), then click Tools |
Map Network drive.
3
In the Map Network Drive dialog, enter the drive letter, path, and username (including
domain name) that the routing software will be using. Then click OK.
 If desired, you can map a drive to the folder to make troubleshooting easier.
However, be aware that the transmission processor will map certain drives as it
sends exams to Imaging destinations. For more information, see page
4
When prompted, enter the password that will be used by the routing software, then
click OK.
 If you cannot map the folder, use the next set of steps below (Testing folders from
the sending site (Command Line)) to provide more detailed information about the
problem you are encountering.
5
Select the folder you just mapped to, copy a test file into the folder, and then delete
the file. If the file is successfully copied and deleted, the routing software should be
able to use the folder.
6
Disconnect the mapped drive.
Testing folders from the sending site (Command Line)
1
Log in as an Administrator to the computer you will be using to test the folder on.
2
Open a command prompt window (choose Start | Run, then enter CMD).
3
Enter the following command to map the folder to a local drive. Parameters shown in
bold will need to be replaced with valid values established by the receiving site
> net use x: \\VHAxxxxxx\sharename\ password /u:username
4
After mapping the drive, copy a test file to the folder, and then delete the file. If the
file is successfully copied and deleted, the routing software should be able to use the
folder.
> copy any.file x:\<path>
> delete x:\<path>\any.file
5
When you are satisfied that the above parameters can be used to successfully access
the folder, delete the test file, then terminate the test connection.
> net use x: /delete
 Be sure to terminate the test connection. Letting a connection linger may prevent
the routing software from establishing its own connection to the folder.
