 Installation Checklist

 A Bit of Background

The Precedence Connector integrates with MedicalDirector Clinical. It must be installed locally on all required computers.

Where more than one user requires the Precedence Connector, we recommend using Client-Server mode.

In Client-Server mode the Connector is first installed on the database server and adopts the role of the Precedence Server. All database and user settings are stored on the Precedence Server.

Any remaining user workstations or terminal profiles can then be installed and configured to Client mode.

Where only one user requires the Precedence Connector software, Standalone mode is recommended as the operation mode. Here, database and user settings will be stored locally.

The import path is configuration separately, via MedicalDirector, at any stage. This step can be configured just once, where a global path is selected.
