Daily 'need to know' announcements

The Connectathon venue makes oral announcements impractical.

Please check your email at 9am and 1:30pm each day. We will send twice-daily "need to know" announcements to the na_connectathon email list.

Seating Assignments

-- Seating assignments - There are two tabs in this spreadsheet. On the first tab, each cell represents one table with two chairs; table locations are identified by a letter/number, eg L28. The second tab shows seating assignments sorted by Organization.

Network Info

• NetworkDescriptionNA2015.pdf: Read the Connectathon Network Description before arriving in Cleveland:
• Please note this extract from this document: New for 2015 -- The network group is not providing small switches at the ends of the sectors. If you are at the end tables of a sector (11, 12, 17, 18, 21, 22, 27, 28 …), you will have to bring a long cable to reach the switch. Each table is 6 feet; you could be 4 tables away from the switch. You could be as far as …… 24 feet, or 8 meters from the switch.

Guidance for Monday's session

We hope you've already reviewed the 10 Connectathon Tips from the Pros.

Monday 8-10am is for system set-up.  After 10am, we expect you to perform testing. Here is guidance on goals to accomplish during Monday's testing session:

• Configure and connect to tools for your profiles.
• Complete the 5-minute Consistent Time "CT_Client" test
• Content Creators -- submit CDA/C-CDA docs into the samples area of gazelle for evaluation
• Modalities/Evidence Creators -- submit DICOM samples into gazelle and the Central Archive
• Submit media you create to the assigned Monitor -->  XDM media (to table G38), PDI media (to table K28)
• It is good practice to had a monitor your media rather than just dropping it at the table.
• Any other tests labeled "*_Do_This_First" or "*_Read_This_First"
• In general, work on other no-peer tests.
• Then, move on to peer-to-peer tests.
