IQ-View data base

  • Hi,


    I would like to install IQ-View on a laptop, but do not want to slow it down when the data base gets a number of images in it. Is it possible to attach a usb hard drive and have the image data stored on it. Any help would be appreciated.

  • Hi,


    Yes, this is possible. Simply Copy & Paste your current local imagebox folder (Default: C:\Program Files\iQ-VIEW\Server\Database\) including the database file 'KPStudy.dir' to the new directory on the external usb hard drive.
    If you have done this successfully, open the 'Local settings' in the study browser of iQ-VIEW and then click on 'Server Admin Tool'. Here you first have to click on the 'Stop server' button.
    Now you can change the path of the imagebox ('IB') and the path of the database file ('DB'). Make sure that these end with an '\'. Otherwise the server can't be started again.
    If you have done this click on 'Start server' and restart the whole application.
    Now iQ-VIEW uses the database on the external hard drive.


    For more information you can also take a look at the Administration Guide within the root folder of your iQ-VIEW installation. [Chapter 9.2.6 CHANGING THE DIRECTORY OF iQ-VIEW’S LOCAL IMAGEBOX AND DATABASE FILE]


    Best regards,
