Table G.8.1-1 specifies the attributes of a Hanging Protocol Instance transmitted by the ImageViewer application.
The following tables use a number of abbreviations. The abbreviations used in the "Presence of …" column are:
VNAP Value Not Always Present (attribute sent zero length if no value is present)
ANAP Attribute Not Always Present
ALWAYS Always Present
EMPTY Attribute is sent without a value
The abbreviations used in the "Source" column:
USER the attribute value source is from User input
AUTO the attribute value is generated automatically
CONFIG the attribute value source is a configurable parameter
All dates and times are encoded in the local configured calendar and time. Date, Time and Time zone are configured using the Service/Installation Tool.
