Rx-Universe can also create a status file which the third-party software can retrieve to obtain the status of each of the site’s job in the lab. The lab would need the Rx-Tracker module installed to accomplish this task. Figure I-1 shows this process.
Rx-Universe can also add external information to an order by using a VCA file.
This document will explain what codes you need to send to Rx-Universe, the format in which the request/orders will need to be sent to Rx-Universe and how to interpret the information that Rx-Universe sends back.

Information (RAW files) coming from the retail site will be stored in a folder determined by the lab which is located on the lab’s server. The most common method of file transfer from a retail site to the lab is via ftp, where the default folder for the ftp transfer will point to the appropriate folder. By default the folder is “OMICSTX” a subfolder of the “RXUNIVERSE” folder on the lab’s server. For example “C:\RXUNIVERSE\OMICSTX”.
Rx-Universe LMS Inbox (for incoming optional order information)
Some devices require external information to be available. The remote processor program will look for files in a folder based on the "Directory for incoming orders" in the Remote Parameters settings. For example “C:\RXUNIVERSE\OMICSTX\LMS”.. The files placed in this folder must be names as follows, "order#.LMS". The information in these files will be stored on the specified order in the VCA overrides data.
An example of file contents would be:
ANS=LMS
STATUS=0;
JOB=13000423
LDDRSPH=5.00;5.30
LDDRCYL=-0.52;-0.50
LDDRAX=90;71
LDDADD=2.43;2.40
LDDPRVM=1.25;1.25
LDDPRVA=270;270
When the Remote processor has reviewed the file, it will be moved to a subfolder called "PROCESSED", if there was an error with the file, it will be placed in a subfolder called "ERRORS". The number of LMS files processed and the number of errors encountered can be seen on the main Remote processor window.
If you need to troubleshoot the files in the "ERRORS" folder, you can turn on the "HOYA LMS log" in the "Remote Parameters" settings screen, then move the files from the "ERRORS" folder to the "LMS" folder for reprocessing. A log file called "HOYALMS.LOG" will be created in the RxUniverse folder. Remember to turn the log fill off when you are done troubleshooting.
