DS-20 (DS-20F)

To display image data from the devices shown below, optional add-in software is required.
Selecting an image from the image list screen activates the Viewer specified for that image.
For details, refer to the operator's manual of each Viewer software.

Microperimeter MP-3
Optical biometer AL-Scan
Specular microscope CEM-530

NAVIS-EX is equipped with functions for image acquiring, image display, image drawing, image pro-
cessing, image measurement, panorama image creation, stereo image observation, composite image
creation, and Follow-Up. (According to the image, available functions are limited.) Image data can be
transferred by network or e-mail.
NAVIS-EX can construct a network among multiple terminals and refers to and edits data from the cli-
ent computer.

• NAVIS-EX alone cannot acquire the data directly from the fundus photography device.
• Capture text information can be added to images acquired from the following NIDEK
fundus photography devices. However, the images must be saved with the XML
information added.
• For devices other than NIDEK fundus photography devices, jpeg and bitmap files can be
acquired. However, capture text information cannot be acquired.

The server computer stores and manages data. Be sure the server is activated when
referring to the data with client computers. When using a computer in stand-alone mode,
set the computer as server. When connecting the RS-3000/RS-3000 Advance/RS-3000
Server
Lite/RS-330 to other devices, prepare other server computer.
However, for the AFC-330, the RS-3000/RS-3000 Advance/RS-3000 Lite/RS-330 can be
connected as server.

1.22 Patient Change Function

The Patient Change function allows patient selection in NAVIS-EX from external devices. Without
operating NAVIS-EX, selection of the patient information and registration of the new patient can be
performed.
The Patient Change function can select the patient using the Windows Command Prompt or by saving
the specified patient file to the observation folder.
For the setting method of the Patient Change function, see "1.20.13 Patient Change tab"
(page 112).

For the command description, use the “Patient change format” set in "1.20.13 Patient
Change tab" (page 112).
ex) Navigator.exe 90001,TEST,PATIENT,1,1950/01/30

• The input format of the command line is comma-deliminated.


• For the patient ID, only the alphabetic characters, A to Z (upper case), and numeric
characters, 0 to 9 can be used. Be sure not to use commas or spaces in the patient ID. This
may recognized as delimiters. If any other characters are used for the ID, the ID may be
registered to NAVIS-EX but might pose a problem for operations such as Retrieve function.
• A Field input in an improper format or values cannot be registered.
• Be sure not to include commas in the comment.
• Do not input a space between the last name and the first name. It may be recognized as a
delimiter.
