''For info on how to set up a new collector, see [[Setting up a New Data Collector]]''


== Kit ==
== Instructions ==
Stuff to take to a location to set up a laptop:
(as of 2026-02)(as of 2025-01)
* laptop
=== Digital Health device permissions / groups ===
* charger
* Instructions: refer them to '''"CCMDB laptop"''' in their knowledgebase '''Support Documents library, Configuration Specification category'''. Contact Brandon Deamel for backup info if there is a problem.
* SD Card (will come from PDAs in most cases)
* configuration set:  named '''"WRK_ICFG_REG_CCMDB Laptops"'''
* mouse
* the laptop needs to be in the OU '''"Standard/applications/CCMDB laptops"'''
* some of the things managed by this:  
** give RW rights to public desktop
** give access to  and to set trusted directories etc.
** rights to make RW to the following directories in root of C:\ (I think)
** access to [[:Category:Hospital EPR]]


== Laptop Prep ==
=== Additional things Digital needs to set up ===
Would be good to include this in the image by eHealth
* and the appropriate printer from [[Printer]]s - ask to set up local printer as per [[Printer]], for '''all users'''
* (if available) in BIOS, to save power:
* need to ask Digital Health to make them since default rights don't allow making directories on C:\
** disable wireless in non-wireless locations
** C:\ccmdb_data
** disable bluetooth
** C:\ccmdb_data\ccmdb_batches
* set My Documents folder location to "c:\mydocuments (right-click on my documents, properties...)
** C:\ccmdb_program
** default goes to network share which is not available off-line and will cause errors
* Install driver updates from HP
** specifically, the slide pad drivers on the image don't seem to work
* Windows Update
* Firefox (less buggy for wiki editing)
* add all local users as admins (must be plugged into network for this)
* Copy
** [[Regional Server]]\data\master\Master Data CCMDB.mdb --> c:\ccmdb_data\'''ccmdb.mdb''' (ie rename file)
** [[Regional Server]]\programs\master\CCMDB.mdb --> c:\ccmdb_program\ccmdb.mdb
** [[Regional Server]]\programs\master\Settings.mdb --> c:\ccmdb_program\Settings.mdb
** Confirm [[Settings.mdb]] has the right settings for laptop location
* Set up [["News and backup" batch file#Setting up the file on a laptop | "News and backup"]]


== Setup on delivery ==
=== Portion with collector logged in ===
* set up printing
Collector or someone in OU DAT_REGION_ICU_DATA_COLLECTION needs to be logged in for this.
* make and test shortcuts to
** [[Regional Server]] shortcut
** the wiki (i.e. to http:///ltc.umanitoba.ca/ccmdb/)
** ''' move shortcuts to the c:\documents and settings\all users\ desktop'''
* test [["News and backup" batch file]]
* Access settings changes '''with the user logged in:'''
** set Macro security settings to low (Access, Tools, Macro, Security) see [[Unsafe Expression and Security Warning Errors Starting Access|also]]
** set menus to always show all (Tools, Customize, Always show full menus)


== Convert data from PDA to laptop ==
* run [[Regional Server]]\maintenance\[[Desktop_install.bat]]
* [[sync]] into old CCMDB.mdb as usual
** CCDMB
* import into c:\CCMDB_data\CCMDB.mdb
*** if it doesn't install [[CCMDB.accdb]] - follow [[Copying down a clean version of CCMDB.accdb]]
** open c:\CCMDB_data\CCMDB.mdb with the usual "tasty password"
**** which automates copying ccmdb_data.mdb from [[Regional Server]]\data\master to c:\ccmdb_data
** go into modules --> importer
** ccmdb_data
** edit the "path" statement in the get_old_data sub
*** restore the collector's data - ideally this will have been backed up and restored from the old laptop
** run the get_old_data sub by clicking the "play" button
**** if not, do a [[CCMDB data.mdb restore from Regional Server]]
* '''rename''' the old <regional server>\programs\<location>\CCMDB.mdb to ccmdb.pre_laptop so it does not overwrite the new one when the [["News and backup" batch file|"News and backup"]] is used
*** 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


== Retiring the PDA ==
* [[News and Backup]]
* do one last backup
** ideally the file was recovered from the old laptop and restored
* move the SD card to the laptop
*** if the file wasn't recovered, see [[News_and_backup#Setting_up_the_file_on_a_laptop]]
* wipe PDA (press outside buttons at same time as stabbing recessed reset button)


== Train the collector ==
== Testing ==
=== Laptopn specific ===
* [[printer]]
* battery swaps
* [[News and backup | test news and backup]]
* turn on/off
** if problem confirm/change location settings
* daily [["News and backup" batch file]]  
*** 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


=== CCMDB.mdb ===
== Net New laptops ==
* adding a new patient
If the laptop is net new (ie not a replacement) the following pages might be relevant:
* deleting any entry (standard record deletion from an Access form)
* [[Network hubs]]
* [[Delete FinalChecks button]]
* start to enter text in dropdowns, it will fill the rest automatically
* escaping out of intractable errors
* diagnosis finder form
