The IP should be a fixed address so that all remote Fiji machines can easily access it. The default DICOM port is 104. (In some cases 4242 is used.)

 The Orthanc PACS is the connection to DICOM network in your department. Fiji reads from Orthanc, so may have to have a 2 step process: 1) retrieve the study from some camera or workstation to Orthanc, and then 2) use the Read BI studies to load it into Fiji. There is a reasonable chance that the study is already on Orthanc, so you need to retrieve it only if it isn't already available.

-To allow retrieval is the purpose of **Data path** which is set to **http://192.168.0.100:8042/**. The structure here is the http: keyword for Web access followed by //IP:port. The port here is the http port in place of the previous DICOM port. The Orthanc default is 8042. Note that the IP is the same as the value used in ODBC Name.

 You may wish to specify that it go directly to the query page, or perhaps somewhere else. In the case of the query page, it is easiest to open the above http path to the main page and then press on the **Query Retrieve** button in the browser.

 ###Save for Conference
 Save for Conference is described [here](Reading studies/#save-for-conference). In this case we are preparing for a conference called Barcelona. Next to the Barcelona name there is a path to a directory on the local disk on the laptop. At the conference there will be no access to the Orthanc server so we need to use [Read from CD](CD Dialog) with the studies on the laptop itself.

 It is also possible to save the studies on a shared disk on the LAN. This may be useful if the connection to the Orthanc server is over a slow Internet connection, where any study which was read by anyone in the group would come across much faster from the shared disk on the LAN.

+###Easy update for multiple Windows machines
+For Windows only there is an easy way to set up in an identical fashion multiple machines. This could be useful when you go to the trouble of setting up your machine and you want to transfer all parameters to all other machines in the department.
+
+Windows has changed the way it works from XP to win10. This example is for XP. Go into a command prompt and type "regedit". Then open the key to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> JavaSoft -> Prefs -> <unnamed> -> biplugins. For win10 the more standard HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> Software -> .... is used instead. Then go to File -> Export in the regedit program, and choose a file name.
