Using %callingae in FileNameSyntax

Hi

It appears that if you use %callingae in the FileNameSyntax, the full 16 characters are written into the filename. If there are fewer characters in the AE Title, then ConQuest uses the extra spaces reports that it has

Written file: C:\dicomserver\data\MG\RPYC_PHYIM02 \physics^gridfactor\study845\s2492-i4-000e.dcm

for example - notice the gap between IM02 and \physics

However, the files beneath the AE Title folder are never written, and that folder does not have the extra spaces.

My syntax is as follows:

FileNameSyntax           = %modality\%callingae\%name\study%studyid\s%seriesid-i%imagenum-%counter.dcm

Also, I am not clear as to how to get ConQuest to take notice of an edited dicom.ini. The only way I could do it in the end was to uninstall the NT service, close the service, make sure my changes were in dicom.ini, reboot the machine, and then restart ConQuest. Anything less and my changes were ignored!

I did try various combinations of kill and restart the server, verify database, re-initialize database etc, but presumably didn't get the particular sequence one must use! Any hints? The manual just says that you shouldn't need to edit it

I am using v 1.4.12c

Thanks,
Ed

Thanks Marcel

So I guess that I can't use the calledAE in the filename for now then - please mark it as a bug for next release!

Kind regards,
Ed
