- Minimum 16 GB of RAM (24 recommended for 500+JPD, 48 for 1000+JPD)
- Available hard disk space as calculated (see section on “estimating hard disk capacity)
- One Thin-Client user license is required for each Rx-Universe session.
- Virus protection software (such as Symantec, AVG, McAfee, etc) with whitelisting of the following folders: RxUniverse and sites.
- Auto logged in user with sufficient permission to run the following application: Digital Processor, Job Tracker, Remote Processor, E-mail Notification, Devices (Serial and TCP/IP)

...
Jobs per day | Total disk space req’d |
up to 500 | 200 Gig |
501 to 1000 | 400 Gig |
1001+ | 600 Gig |
Rx-Site
- If Rx-Site is to be used, the lab must have either a WAN static IP address provided by their ISP, or a Dynamic DNS
routing service that provides a static URL to their WAN IP.
- On the Router/Firewall Bi-Directional all communication on “port# 6523” must be forwarded to the Static Lan IP of the Rx-Universe Server.
Workstations Specifications
- Windows Operating System (32 bit/64Bit); Windows 10 or above
- Minimum 8 GB of RAM.
- Processor operating at 2.0 GHz or higher (Multiple-core processor operating at 2.33 GHz recommended)
- TCP/IP Lan 100/1000(preferred)Workstations set up as members of the domain.
- A up to date chromium based browser (Chrome, Edge, Chromium, Opera)
- Device stations is the same as the Stand Alone Workstation requirements:
- With TCP/IP you can run normal network cable (RJ45) from your network router to your devices just like connecting a Workstation on your network. This is becoming more and more common with the newer ophthalmic machines.
- With a Serial Port; A device workstation accepting requests by serial connection must have enough serial ports available for the devices to be connected. This can be accomplished with serial ports directly in the computer or by means of an external multi-port serial adapter. Each job tracking scanner used in the lab also must connect to a device workstation by a serial connection.
