Each healthcare site must provide training on the BloodTrack Kiosk V5 and BloodTrack
Courier software. Only users who have satisfactorily completed the training and hold a
certificate of competence will be authorized to use the system.
A PIN/password is required to access the underlying operating system on the
BloodTrack Kiosk V5.
All security at the application level is controlled by the BECS server with the BloodTrack
Kiosk V5 acting as the terminal for the server.
If the network connection fails, and the BloodTrack Kiosk V5 and the BloodTrack
Courier software are unable to contact the BECS, the software will inform the user with
a self-explanatory message, and restrict access to the storage location. Any events at
the storage location will be stored in a local cache on the BloodTrack Kiosk V5 until the
network connection is restored.
Loss of the network connection does not result in a hazardous situation as there are
additional procedures at the healthcare site to manage the storage location while the
system is not functioning.
The BloodTrack Kiosk V5 operating system provides a stateful host-based firewall that
blocks incoming and outgoing connections based on its configuration. By default it will
allow traffic for communication with the BECS.
T
he BloodTrack Kiosk V5 is an embedded system, and not a general purpose ‘desktop’
computer that restricts the use of the operating system to a single task. Therefore, as
part of the site survey and risk analysis, the use and management of appropriate
antivirus software must be considered. The healthcare site will have a policy regarding
appropriate antivirus software, its deployment and upkeep on equipment, such as the
BloodTrack Kiosk V5, that connects to the network at the site.

USB Connection Specification
The BloodTrack Kiosk V5 contains four USB 2.0 host ports compliant to the USB 2.0
standard.
The USB ports are individually controlled by the hardware inside the BloodTrack
Kiosk V5 so that they can be disabled until they are required. Enabling the ports is done
within the software.
The underside engineering port (see
) is not to be used for permanent
connection to a third-party peripheral device.
On the underside of the BloodTrack Kiosk V5 (see
) one port is presented as a
micro USB type A receptacle and is reserved for future peripheral expansion. Only
Haemonetics supplied hardware is to be connected to this port.
Another USB port is presented on the underside (see
) as an engineering port
and is a reversible USB type A receptacle. This reversible type connection is used so
that it does not matter the orientation of the USB type A plug when connecting to the
