.. _configure-modality: .. highlight:: json Connect your modality to Orthanc ================================ This section explains how to connect a modality to an Orthanc server. First, retrieve the IP address of your Orthanc Server. Make sure to retrieve the IP address of the correct network interface (in this case ``123.124.125.126``). You should also make sure that your firewall enables incoming traffic on the DICOM port for that network interface (``4242`` by default). Then, start Orthanc without specifying a configuration file (i.e. using its default configuration). On your modality, search for "settings/network settings" (exact naming is platform dependent). You should find this kind of information .. image:: ../images/ConfigureModality1.png :align: center :width: 500px Write down the AET, IP and DICOM port of the modality (in this case, respectively ``ECHO1``, ``123.124.125.10`` and ``104``). Then, still in your modality network settings, you should find a panel in which you can configure a PACS or a target DICOM Server. Enter the following information (adapt it with the IP address of your Orthanc Server): .. image:: ../images/ConfigureModality2.png :align: center :width: 500px Once you've entered this configuration in your modality, you might have access to a "*Test connection/C-ECHO*" button to validate that the modality can reach the Orthanc Server. Then, stop Orthanc, update you :ref:`configuration file <configuration>`, and declare your modality in the ``DicomModalities`` section, given the parameters you wrote down above:: // The list of the known DICOM modalities "DicomModalities" : { "echo1" : [ "ECHO1", "123.124.125.10", 104 ] }, Restart Orthanc using this newly created configuration file, and you will be able to send data from your modality to your Orthanc Server.
