    Use the FLF/RCF Download to PBX option on the MCS Platform Management Menu 
    to restore PBX patient extensions, phone service, DID numbers, and patient restriction 
    information in the event of PBX failure.

    WarningDownloading will delete patients who have been moved and will reset all staff 
    restrictions to the default value.
    DID NumbersOnly DID numbers that are stamped with an active status by the database are 
    downloaded to the PBX. When a DID number is active, it has been received by the PBX 
    and is implemented. If there was a patient move between the time that the DID number 
    was implemented by the PBX and the PBX failure, the downloaded DID number will 
    not be accurate.
    Effect on 
    DatabaseDownloading the database to the PBX slows down response to operator lookups, but 
    not as much as backing up the database.

    Medical Center System Operations Manual HOST INTERFACE ADMINISTRATION
    Chapter 13 HOST INTERFACE ADMINISTRATION
    Introduction
    The MCS Host Interface Administration Menu provides options for managing the 
    communication interface between the MCS and the HIS systems. This menu displays 
    when you enter hostadm at the UNIX login prompt.
    Figure 13-1   Host Interface Administration
    Interface StatusThe interface can either be idle or active. If it is idle, it is not able to receive messages 
    from the HIS. If it is active, the interface is receiving messages and is otherwise 
    interacting normally with the HIS. Administration Menu options can be accessed when 
    the interface is in either state. 
    Ve rs i o nMCS now communicates only over a serial line in asynchronous mode.

    Log File Options
    The Log File options on the MCS Host Interface Administration Menu allow you to 
    display the log file for on-screen viewing or printing and to erase the contents of the log 
    file. This section discusses these two options.
    Figure 13-2   Interface Log File
    ContentsThe Log File contains messages about processes completed, transactions in progress, 
    and other activities on the interface. The messages are date and time stamped 
    (e.g., 08/16/08:45:10) and listed in chronological order, based upon arrival to the log 
    file.
    Real-Time 
    DisplayThe Log File display reflects real-time activity in the file when it is in AutoScroll 
    mode. When the cursor is positioned on the AutoScroll command, press the Enter key 
    to toggle the mode on and off. In AutoScroll mode, the notation A–S appears in the 
    bottom right-hand corner of the screen and new messages are scrolled onto the screen 
    as they occur. 
    Hard Copy PrintThe Print command allows you to make hard-copy snapshots of either the current 
    screen or the entire file contents.
    WARNING: Use of the Erase Log File option removes all data from the log file and 
    requires confirmation before the actual deletion is performed.

    ContentsThe Configuration File contains parameters for which entries bring the host and the 
    MCS into communication. In some cases, entries on one side of the link must be 
    compatible with entries on the other side of the link. The parameters display one at a 
    time for data entry with the default entry shown in parentheses.

    Field Name
    Response timer value DefinitionThe amount of time MCS waits for an

    sec.
    Master synchronization timer value (30 
    sec)The length of time that HIS waits for an 
    acknowledgment or data-bearing message 
    from MCS before assuming that 
    communication is down between the two.
    Slave synchronization timer value (180 sec) The length of time that MCS will wait for a 
    heartbeat or data-bearing message from the 
    host before assuming that communication 
    is down between the two.
    Message request response timer value (30 
    sec)In a two-way link, if MCS has asked the 
    host to download messages, this is the 
    amount of time that MCS waits for those 
    messages.
    Host link semaphore key value The key of the semaphore used to control 
    access to the host link; default = 2734.
    Logging level The level of detail at which information is 
    recorded in the log file; default = 1 (error 
    message only). Valid values include 1, 3, 5, 
    and 7, where 7 is extensive tracing that is 
    recommended for problem-solving only.
    Host link shared memory key value The semaphore key used to control access 
    to the host link shared memory; default =
