    v2 v3  
    33Jay reports that all the data is stored on the machines themselves (there are two of them) but there needs to be a process to back the data up, and acquire it for the research database.

     5== Process for backup ==

     7The CareFusion Spirometry software is installed on the GRAPHIC 2 laptop.
     8
     9The software requires a hardware USB dongle to activate. Once activated, open the link to the database, which is stored on the BRICCS network share, in the GRAPHIC 2 folder, in the spirometry subfolder.

     11Currently the file name for the database is "GRAPHIC 2 TEST 1.RDB"
     12
     13With the database open, attach a spirometry machine, plug it in to mains power, and turn it on. In the software, select the "Upload" tab, and then select "Upload new" to upload just those readings which do not exist in the database. Upload all will upload all the readings on the machine into the database, overwriting any which already exist.

     15On completion, disconnect and turn off the device.

    520Apparently Martin Tobin is part of the EXCEED study in respiratory, in which spirometry data is being uploaded from laptops associated with the same CareFusion MicroLab devices to a central SQL database. The acquisition process uses some code written for the project by University IT (Stuart Wood). Maybe Martin Tobin would be happy for us to use the same code for GRAPHIC...
