Sorry but we do not have telephone support. If you cannot find a solution to your problem in the troubleshooting FAQs, please email Support@TrilTech.com  and we will get back to you asap. Be sure to include a full description of the problem including your ShowCase product and release number, your operating system, any error messages encountered and any information from troubleshooting logs (see below).

 

Troubleshooting logs that could help diagnose problems:

ShowCase Viewing: In ShowCase 5.0 and later there is an option under the Help menu called "ShowCase Trace Log". This log may provide information about errors.

DICOM networking issues: In the ShowCase Connect software (or SCP_ShowCase in pre-5.0 software) the main screen gives access to the network activity log that shows much of the DICOM network activity and can help diagnose problems. Also, your ultrasound machine or PACS will have network transfer error logs. See the manufacturer's documentation.
