DICOM
DICOM is optional
on the HPMA.
The configuration settings for the LDR
X DICOM component allow
you to set the active state of the protocol component, select whether or
not to enable the protocol on service restarts, and reset transaction
counters to clear alarms.
The LDR advertises two ports to the grid, one for query and retrieve
operations and one for ingest. When the DICOM component is in
“Online” state, both ports are advertised. The “Online (Read-Only)”
state advertises only the Q/R port and not the ingest port.

DICOM State Pull-down
menu
Sets the component to be either:
• Offline—No DICOM transactions are allowed,
and any entity that tries to establish a DICOM
association to the LDR receives an error message.
Active associations are completed normally.
DICOM component counter attributes are reset to
zero.
• Redirect—Transparently redirects associations to
other LDR services. No DICOM processing is
performed locally.
• Online (Read-Only)—Only the Q/R DICOM port
is advertised to the grid.
• Online—Normal operation.
Auto-Start DICOM Check box Enables the DICOM component when the service is
restarted. If not selected, the DICOM component
remains Offline until explicitly enabled.
If the check box is selected, the state on restart
depends on the state of the Storage component. If the
storage component is read-only on startup, the
DICOM interface is also read-only. If the storage
component is online, then DICOM is also online.
Otherwise the DICOM interface remains in the
Offline state.

Check box When selected and applied, the counter attributes for
DICOM transactions are reset to zero. This can be
used to clear alarms.
