Configuring Capricorn Software

Accessing the Capricorn Configuration Window
 

In some cases, the Capricorn may be configured as a service. See this guide for instructions on how to launch the Capricorn if it is set up as a service. 

Capricorn Configuration Settings

  1. Click on Manage Queues in the left hand side panel.



  2. Click Add.

    Enter HL7 Outgoing for the Queue name.

    Enter C:\Genie\Medical Objects\Outgoing\ for the Base Directory.


     
  3. Click on HL7 OUTGOING in the Queues to watch for messages pane and then click on Setup.



  4. Click on Add in the window that appears and choose the following decorator from the menu that appears.


    Specify File Mask




    For this particular decorator, When you are returned to the queue building screen you will have to set *.HL7 (HL7 Messages) from the drop down for that Decorator.


  5. Repeat Step 4 for the following decorators.

    You must do them in sequence.


    Strip Illegal Characters
Move ACKs to Application ACK Folder
Fix REF Message
Use MSH-6 MO Routing ID to readdress REF message
Route with Capricorn


    Historically Convert REF message to ORU format was part of the queue before Route with Capricorn but is no longer needed for new configurations.


    If you need to change the order of the decorators, you can click on the decorator in the queue and use the arrow buttons on the right hand side of the screen to change their priority.


    If you get an error at anytime sending from Genie that looks similar to the following: EFTInvalidFormatCode:Invalid escape sequence format code ".RTF"' then you will have to add the following decorator after the Strip Illegal Characters Decorator.

    Modify Message with HL7 Script


    Once you have added the Decorator, add to it the following code in its main settings box just under the Edit button.


    Program Test;
var i:Integer;
 s : String;
 OBXStart: Integer;
begin
 //HL7 Data is a precreated object with the HL7Data loaded
 OBXStart := HL7Data.IndexofSegment('OBX');
 writeln('OBX Index is '+ inttostr(OBXStart));
 for i := OBXStart + 1 to HL7Data.segmentCount-1 do
 begin
 if HL7data[inttostr(i) + '.3.1.1'] = 'RTF' then
 begin
 HL7Data.DeleteSegment(i);
 break;
 end;
 end;
end.


  6. Go to the Server Parameters option on the left hand menu. Here you need to Enter the Server File Prefix. Enter a 3 letter acronym for the practice. This prefix will be used when naming outgoing messages.



  7. Next go to the Setup Global Parameters. Set the Seconds to wait before processing files to 10 seconds. This allows Genie time to save the file completely before Capricorn tries to send it.
