Marco Interface

Encompass receives data from the Marco equipment and displays the data in the pretesting summary of the Encompass visit note. If you use the Marco OPD-Scan III with a standalone connection, Encompass can also receive images from the Marco equipment.

Except for the Marco RT-5100 export interface, Encompass does not send data to the Marco equipment.

The equipment interface transfers data from the Marco equipment to Encompass.

Network Connection Method

The Marco interface uses a serial RS-232 cable or a null modem to connect to the computer or Terminal Server. The Marco equipment interface can use multiple serial ports per PC.
