Event reports, and images received from remote Storage SCP’s .  In addition, TLS security for incoming DICOM 
communication may be e nabled, optional encryption enabled/disabled, and certificates imported, selected, or removed 
from this interface.

Each Storage Server includes a set of Advanced Settings allowing for device-specific control of the data to be stored to 
that device.  These  settings include:  
•   Compression to be used for single- frame images 
•   Compression to be used for multi -frame images  
•   Whether to send images in Monochrome or Color photom etric interpretations 
•   Whether to limit export to Implicit VR Little Endian transfer syntax.  Generally used only for the few devices 
that don’t understand any other transfer...

 o  If there is no response from the SCP within this time period, the Network/Reply timer expires.  The system will 
send a DICOM A -RELEASE  Request .

 remaining unwritten space on the media is available for use.  This restriction does not apply to + / -  RW media.  
Erasing + / -  RW media allows  the entire disk’s space to be used.  
If a – R or +R is erased, it is not usable again for DICOM exports due to reliability concerns associated with DVD 
media. Only DVD+RW/ -RW can be erased and used again for DICOM export.

5.2.1.2.1  Activity  – Export to  Media 
The Media Application Entity acts as an FSC using the interchange option when requested to export SOP Instances 
from the local database to media.  
The contents of the export job will be written together with a corresponding DICOMDIR to media.  The user can cancel 
an export job in the job queue. Writing in multi -se ssion format to CDs and DVDs is not  supported; a ny CD or DVD with 
DICOM data on it will  be viewed as read-...

TLS authentication may be used with or without TLS encryption – default is with  TLS encryption.  
For outgoing TLS requests where EPIQ/Affiniti acts as a TLS Client, the received server RSA certificate is validated by 
verifying its digital signature against  a certificate in the local Trusted Certificate Authorities store whose Subject 
matches the Issuer of the received certificate.  If requested by the TLS Server, EPIQ/Affiniti will then send the 
certificate configured for “This System” from the...
