Description

Use the Device Engine File Transfer Interfaces page as support for HL7 file transfer via the Orchard Device Engine (ODE).

This is used to configure an interface on an Orchard Device Engine for use with a host. This has the standard list and details pages. This page is only accessible if the user has the new View/Edit Device Engine File Transfer Interfaces (AdminCenter > Other Setup) role right enabled.

A Device Engine File Transfer Interface is assigned to an Orchard Device Engine and a host via the search-as-you-type fields on the details page. The Orchard Device Engine determines which interfaces are available and which Orchard Device Engine is used for the file transfers.

The host determines which host can use this Device Engine File Transfer Interface on its inbound/outbound interface configuration.

Note

Setting the host on a Device Engine File Transfer Interface does not assign that Device Engine File Transfer Interface to the host, it merely limits the Device Engine File Transfer Interface so that it can only be assigned to that host.

To complete the setup, you must go to host setup and select the Device Engine File Transfer Interface on Inbound/Outbound Interface tabs configuration located on the Hosts administration page via the Interface Configuration button.
