This article contains instructions on how to set up a new laptop for a new location.
== Instructions ==
=== Digital Health portion ===
They need to set up the laptop according to their own instructions they keep losing. The instructions are stored on their Sharepoint and we don't have access to them. Documentation used to be in '''Support Documents library, Configuration Specification category''' but may not be there any more. Brandon Deamel might be able to help the desktop person find them.  


== eHealth Prep ==
Details keep changing, but part of the trick is that the laptop needs to be in the OU '''"Standard/applications/CCMDB laptops"''' (as of 2025-01) to give rights to public desktop and to set trusted directories etc.  
Refer eHealth to the "CCMDB Laptop" desktop configuration in the Sharepoint Support Library, or to Brandon Deamel.

Make the following directories; you may need to ask Digital Health to make them since default rights don't allow making directories on C:\
* C:\ccmdb_data
* C:\ccmdb_data\ccmdb_batches
* C:\ccmdb_program


Any new laptop needs to be imaged by eHealth.
* and the appropriate printer from [[Printer]]s - ask to set up local printer as per [[Printer]], for '''all users'''
* [[Wireless networking]] - the laptop used to need to be added to some OU to make this work; this may no longer be the case
* [[:Category:Hospital EPR]] - laptop has to be added to some OU to make that work


Ask them to follow the '''CCMDB Laptop''' instructions on their sharepoint (thanks to Brandon Deamel for setting up).  
=== Portion with collector logged in ===
Collector or someone in OU DAT_REGION_ICU_DATA_COLLECTION needs to be logged in for this.  


Send an email to the service desk with the following info:
* run [[Regional Server]]\maintenance\[[Desktop_install.bat]]
* '''MS Access''' - 2010 preferred
** CCDMB
* '''[[Admin Rights on Laptops|admin rights]]''' - required to make SD card work, as discussed with '''Brandon Deamel'''
*** if it doesn't install [[CCMDB.accdb]] - follow [[Copying down a clean version of CCMDB.accdb]]
** state "The laptops need to be put into the regular exceptions group, but we don’t need per-laptop documentation because there is a documentation category for CCMDB laptops." - as confirmed by Brandon Deamel, involve him if there are problems
**** which automates copying ccmdb_data.mdb from [[Regional Server]]\data\master to c:\ccmdb_data
* '''[[Wireless networking]]''' - the laptop needs to be added to a group to make this work
** ccmdb_data
* '''[[Printer]]s''' - ask to set up local printer as per link, for '''all users'''
*** restore the collector's data - ideally this will have been backed up and restored from the old laptop
**** if not, do a [[CCMDB data.mdb restore from Regional Server]]
*** if this is a brand new laptop that doesn't replace an old one, copy the newest version from [[Regional Server]]\data\master and rename it to get rid of the version portion of the name


==== site specific EPR ====
* [[News and Backup]]
see [[:Category:Hospital EPR]]
** ideally the file was recovered from the old laptop and restored
*** if the file wasn't recovered, see [[News_and_backup#Setting_up_the_file_on_a_laptop]]


=== Prep by our team ===
== Testing ==
''' make sure script fixed for permissions before running next, and fix article'''
* [[printer]]
* run prep script:
** W7: [[Regional Server]]\maintenance\'''[[Laptop prep.vbs‎‎]]'''
** XP: Try W7, or run [[Regional Server]]\maintenance\'''[[laptop files copier.bat]]'''
 
== First time a new user logs on ==
These are stored in the user profile so they have to be set up with the '''user logged in'''.
* [[Changing settings in MS Access after first open]]
** also get rid of extra tool bars...
* change '''Folder Options''' to be visible
** Windows explorer, Tools menu, Folder Options, View,
** uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types"
* set battery settings
** always display (Control Panel/Power Options/Alarm/Alarm Action Sound Alarm for both low and critical)
** audible warning (Control Panel/Power Options/Advances/ Always show icon on tool bar)
 
== Retrieve Data ==
If restoring for a previously collected location:

* [[News and backup | test news and backup]]
* [[News and backup | test news and backup]]
 
** if problem confirm/change location settings
== Re-image instructions for accessible hard driver ==
*** right-click edit the icon, make sure line starting with ''set ml='' has the correct location in it
Here is what needs to be sent to eHealth if a laptop is to be re-imaged and the hard drive is still accessible. If they can do this it may not require a site visit.

Instructions

Digital Health portion

They need to set up the laptop according to their own instructions they keep losing. The instructions are stored on their Sharepoint and we don't have access to them. Documentation used to be in Support Documents library, Configuration Specification category but may not be there any more. Brandon Deamel might be able to help the desktop person find them.

Details keep changing, but part of the trick is that the laptop needs to be in the OU "Standard/applications/CCMDB laptops" (as of 2025-01) to give rights to public desktop and to set trusted directories etc.

Make the following directories; you may need to ask Digital Health to make them since default rights don't allow making directories on C:\

  • C:\ccmdb_data
  • C:\ccmdb_data\ccmdb_batches
  • C:\ccmdb_program
  • and the appropriate printer from Printers - ask to set up local printer as per Printer, for all users
  • Wireless networking - the laptop used to need to be added to some OU to make this work; this may no longer be the case
  • Category:Hospital EPR - laptop has to be added to some OU to make that work

Portion with collector logged in

Collector or someone in OU DAT_REGION_ICU_DATA_COLLECTION needs to be logged in for this.

Testing

  • printer
  • test news and backup
    • if problem confirm/change location settings
      • right-click edit the icon, make sure line starting with set ml= has the correct location in it
  • CCMDB
  • wiki link
  • confirm autoupdates are enabled in Firefox

Net New laptops

If the laptop is net new (ie not a replacement) the following pages might be relevant:
