3.12 Multi-Eyecon menu
The Multi-Eyecon menu is shown at right.
This allows two Eyecons to be directly
together, not through the network,
supporting the ability for one Eyecon to
send Rx fill data to a 2nd Eyecon.
This feature was developed for use in the
‘vault’ where controlled substances are
filled in VAMC pharmacies.
The Tech fills the Rx on the first Eyecon, in
validation or count only mode, and scans out with the Rx# barcode.
Upon Finishing, the first Eyecon sends a packet to the 2nd Eyecon which is in PMSS
mode, with Eyecon Native selected.
The 2nd Eyecon receives the Rx data and saves the details in the PMSS table.
The Pharmacist then scans the Order ID barcode and the Eyecon looks up the data
and prompts the pharmacist to double count the pills, saving a 2nd tray photo of the
pills being dispensed.
You will need to configure both Eyecons to have an IP address with the same value in
the first 3 segments.
• VA Echo:
- Select this and you can choose to enable or disable the function.
• VA Echo IP Address:
- Select this and use the keypad that appears to enter the IP
address of the 2nd Eyecon.
•VA Echo Port Number:
- Select this and use the keypad that appears to enter the
listener port that is configured on the 2nd Eyecon’s Pharm Mgmt SW group.
3.13 Trained Drugs menu
Trained Drugs are the pill shadow images the Eyecon uses to count the pills on the
counting platter. The Eyecon comes with trained pill images that accommodate over
50,000 NDCs. However, your pharmacy may need to train an NDC if the Trained Pill
Image database on the Eyecon does not already have an associated trained image for
it.
The export/import of the Trained Pill file allows you to transfer this data from one
Eyecon to another. However, for pharmacies with more than one Eyecon, we
recommend use of the Database Sharing feature described in section 3.4.7 which
supports real-time sharing of the Trained Pill data, as well as other data. This can help
when adding a second Eyecon to your pharmacy or if you need to send your Eyecon
in for service.
