The team at Echo IQ will tailor Echo IQ Connect to your specific needs. We'll be here to guide you through the installation process.
Before downloading and installing Echo IQ Connect, you will need to configure an Echo IQ Instance to transfer information from your DICOM to EchoSolv. You can find more information in the Configuring Echo IQ Connect.

Downloading Echo IQ Connect

Installing Echo IQ Connect
Ensure that you have trusted this software and have passed the firewall prompts.
Figure 1: EIQ Connect Initial Setup
As shown in Figure 1, you will be required to enter the desired Port Number where you wish the Echo IQ Connect User Interface to be available. It is important to ensure the port number is not already in use. For example, the default is set to 5000. Therefore to access Echo IQ Connect for myself, I will need to type 'http://localhost:5000' in my internet browser when it has been successfully installed.
Figure 2: Location of Installation
Once you have installed EIQ Connect in your designated location and have clicked 'Install', you have now installed EIQ Connect and can access this by accessing your local host with the relevant port number.
Navigating the Echo IQ Interface
Open Echo IQ Connect and enter it through the port you have provided during the installation process. The first time you open EIQ Connect you will be required to enter a password and then enter the access token that you have configured in the EIQ Platform.
Configuration steps are provided in Configuring Echo IQ Connect. You can enter the token into the landing page, then press connect. This will download all your Echo IQ Connect integration details.
