Installation How To Vista-Office/Cache for Windows v .3 with user comments
Contents
INSTALLATION NOTES
This document was downloaded from http://sourceforge.net/projects/canfloss/ It was edited and noted in order to help with the installation. This is not an official manual. There is a new version there that works well. Follow instructions at your own risk. The original document contains nice color screens that help a lot :-)
Please look for blocks marked INSTALLATION NOTES, just like the one above.
The first note is this: make sure your regional settings (Control Panel -> Regional Settings) are “US”. This is most likely your case, but please check it, since CPRS will not work otherwise.
END OF INSTALLATION NOTES
Disclaimer
The VistA-Office EHR (VOE) software and associated documentation are based on the existing VistA Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) software Application and documentation from the Veterans Health Administration. In the software and the associated documentation, there may be references to Veterans Administration, Veterans Health Administration, in-patient care, etc. that were not easily removed without adversely affecting the content or quality of the software or documentation. This documentation is intended to apply to the VOE software only. The VOE is intended for use in a non-VA ambulatory care facility.
The VistA FOIA and, therefore, VOE, is an extremely robust and complex system. This document is not intended as a full and complete manual on all functionality within the distributed software. This document will highlight VOE specific software and other software packages that may prove useful to clinicians in a non-VA ambulatory care setting. Full documentation for all original VistA FOIA functionality can be obtained via the VA website.
WARNING: This is a beta version of VistA-Office EHR, and absolutely not to be used for production!
Server/Caché Install
INSTALLATION NOTES
Download Single-User Cache software from: http://www.intersystems.com/cache/downloads/
Steps from 8. to 11. do not apply in the single-user version of Cache (the one available for download on Cache website). If you wish you can contact Intersystems (http://www.intersystems.com/contact/index.html) and request a free multi-user license and a CD for evaluation purposes only (not for production environment). This will allow you to have a fully functional Vista-Office.
END INSTALLATION NOTES
1. Read the Cache Procurement Guide.doc located on the VistA-Office EHR CD in the Install folder. Once you have obtained your Caché CD from InterSystems insert the CD for Caché in the CD drive.
2. Determine where the Caché will be installed, a server that all users can access is preferable.
3. Click the Install button, and then click Yes.
4. Accept Cache as the installation name by clicking Next.
5. Accept Standard setup, then click Next. You may change the Destination Folder by clicking Browse and choosing the appropriate folder.
6. Accept 8-bit and click Next.
7. Click Next at the Install Summary screen.
8. An Enter License Prompt will appear:
9. Click Yes, then click Next at the License Wizard Introduction to get to the Set License Information screen.
10. Enter your License Information as provided by InterSystems – in a pamphlet in the inside sleeve of the Caché CD case. (NOTE: You must enter License Information exactly).
11. Click Next, then click Finish once you have entered the License Information correctly. (Note: You will see a message that Caché is searching for previously installed components. A progress bar for this process will appear at the bottom left of your screen).
12. It will then say, Starting Caché.
13. Un-check the box in the Setup Complete screen next to the question “Do you wish to view the Getting Started page?” Click Finish, and then click Exit.
14. Remove the CD and store in a safe place!
VistA-Office EHR Install
INSTALLATION NOTES
Download a beta version of the Vista-Office software at http://sourceforge.net/projects/canfloss/
Steps from 8. to 11. do not apply in the single-user version of Cache. This only means that the install process is more streamlined.
END INSTALLATION NOTES
1. Insert the VistA-Office EHR CD into the CD drive.
2. Create a new folder in the CacheSys directory in the Mgr folder (located on the C: drive or the destination you choose in step 5 in the previous section). Name the new folder EHR. Hit Enter.
a. Go to your C: drive.
i. One-way to get to your C: drive is to double-click on the My Computer icon on you’re desktop, then choose C: Drive in the Address box. Note: If you chose a drive other than the C: Drive in step 5 on page 1, then you should open that same Destination folder instead of the C: Drive here.

(THESE ENTRIES ARE CASE SENSITIVE AND MUST BE ENTERED AS SHOWN) NOTE: %RCR DOES NOT REQUIRE AN ASTRICKS*
20. Click OK to save new Namespaces (above).
21. Then click Activate in the next box (seen below):
22. Caché and EHR are installed.
23. Click on the blue cube in the system tray (near the clock located at the bottom right of your desktop screen) and select Control Panel from the list.
INSTALLATION NOTES
Please perform steps 24-28 exactly as described, but keep in mind that they will have no effect: the single-user version of Cache lets you create other users, but they are nothing more than aliases for the single user that the system accepts. The password you enter will not have any effect. This is one of the most troublesome issues that we need assistance from Intersys with.
END INSTALLATION NOTES
24. Double-click on Security folder located on the left of your Control Panel screen. Click on the User Accounts folder.
25. Right click on the TRM user, select Edit, and change the namespace to EHR. Click OK.
26. Right-click on the User Accounts folder and select New User.
27. Select an Account Name (not case-sensitive) and Password (case-sensitive) twice.
28. Change the Namespace to “EHR” by choosing EHR from the drop-down list. Then change the Routine to “^ZU” then click OK. Close Control Panel screen.
INSTALLATION NOTES
The next step is completely wrong for a local installation: the server address is 127.0.0.1.
END INSTALLATION NOTES
29. Determine the IP Address of the machine (preferably a server) and notate this for Configuration for the client machines.
a. To determine the IP Address of your machine, click on the Start Menu at the bottom left of your desktop screen.
b. Then, click on Run. Type cmd in the Run box and then click OK.
c. You will see a screen pop up with C:\> in it. Type ipconfig after C:\>, and then hit your Enter key.
d. Your IP Address should be listed (IP Address: xx.xxx.xxx.xxx).
e. Write down your IP Address (xx.xxx.xxx.xxx) and save it for a step in the Client Install. (Note: This number will be referred to as the [site ip] later in this document).
f. Close screen.
CPRS Install
1. Install the CPRS directory and shortcuts to all the computers that will access the EHR.
2. Create a new folder on the C: drive. Name the new folder ehrgui. Hit Enter.
a. Go to your C: drive. One-way to get to your C: drive is to double-click on the My Computer icon on you’re desktop, then choose C: Drive in the Address box.
b. Go to File, click on New, and then click Folder.
c. Type ehrgui for the folder’s name, and then hit Enter.
3. Unzip the VOECPRSGUI.zip directory (located in the Install folder on the VistA-Office EHR CD) and extract its contents to the ehrgui folder on the C: drive, the directory includes a file “CPRSChart.exe”.
a. To unzip this file, double-click on ehrgui.zip from the CD, and then click on the Extract icon from the top of the Zip screen that pops up. Choose the C: drive as the location to Extract to: by clicking on the C: drive. Then, click Extract all.
4. Locate CPRSChart.exe file - located where the files from step 2a were extracted e.g. the C: drive. Right-click on the file and choose “Create Shortcut.” Drag the Shortcut to CPRSChart.exe file to your desktop.
INSTALLATION NOTES
Step 1. above can be a little confusing. It should read something like “Perform the following steps”, and nothing more.
On the next step, your IP address should be 127.0.0.1. So, following the example below, the Shortcut for CPRSChart should read: “C:\ehrgui\CPRSChart.exe s=127.0.0.1 p=9210”
END INSTALLATION NOTES
5. Right-click on the “CPRSChart” shortcut icon located on your desktop, and then select Properties. Go to the Shortcut tab once you are in the Properties dialog box. The Target will be “C:\ehrgui\CPRSChart.exe.” Place your cursor at the end of this text and type the following: “s=your site ip address here p=9210.” The s= needs to be reset to the IP address of the server that was determined in step 29 of the previous section. The final target should look something like this: “C:\ehrgui\CPRSChart.exe s=xx.xxx.xxx.xxx p=9210”.
6. Hit OK when you are finished changing [site ip] to the correct ip address.
Roll-and-Scroll Install
INSTALLATION NOTES

INSTALLATION NOTES
VOE STARTUP:
1. Click on the Cache blue cube in the system tray and choose “Terminal”.
2. At the EHR Prompt enter “D ^XUP”, without the quotes, case-sensitive.
3. At the “Access Code” Prompt enter “start123”.
4. If you haven’t configured users before, you can do it now, by entering “XUSERED”, and following the system Prompts, just as described in the original instructions. This step only needs to be performed once.
5. Go to your Windows directory and look for the “HOSTS” (or “hosts”, not case-sensitive), file. The most usual location is C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc.
6. If the file does not exist, you will have to create it using a plain-text editor, like Notepad. If it does exist, check that it has an entry reading 127.0.0.1 localhost (or maybe 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain, these are the same, just make sure there is a space between the IP and the server name).
7. Add one more entry:
127.0.0.1 BROKERSERVER
8. Return to the Cache Terminal; at the EHR Prompt enter “D Q^DI”.

13. Start Task Manager: at the EHR Prompt, enter “D ^ZTMB”.
14. Start the RPC brooker: at the EHR Prompt enter “D STRT^XWBTCP(9210)”.
15. The system will display “Starting TCP listener...”, ... “Listener started successfully.”
16. Now you can click on the “CPRSChart” shortcut to start it. The access code will be the one you have set before, but for the first login, you will have to set a new verify code.
17. Steps 13. and 14. will have to be repeated each time you restart your system.
END INSTALLATION NOTES
Addendum: To restart Vista-Office after reboot:
I don't see the point of doing everything above to restart VOE:
1. Just shutdown Windows and then wait for Cache to restart.
2. Start Task Manager: at the EHR Prompt, enter “D ^ZTMB”.
3. Go to Cache, click on terminal and type D STRT^XWBTCP(9210)
4. That's it.
