User settings

Auto-return, the accounts Viewer and Lightbox use, Room Scheduling, and your password.

Open Settings from the user menu — your initials — in the header. On a phone, open the menu and choose your name, then Settings.

Auto-return to rooms list

Turn on Auto-return to rooms list if you often leave room detail open at a shared station. When it is on, Link returns to the rooms list after a few minutes of inactivity on a room page. That keeps the last patient’s full study list from sitting on screen.

Viewer Settings

These accounts control how Lightbox and Viewer sign into Joints. You do not type a Joints password here.

Choose which shared Joints account Lightbox should use, or clear it to use the Default Account.

Viewer Medstrat Account

This field is read-only. It shows the Joints account Viewer will use:

  • Your own Joints account when it is enabled for you
  • Otherwise the shared account you selected, or the default — if your clinic allows shared accounts
  • Not enabled if Viewer requires your Joints account and it is not set up yet

Account Selection

The blue Account Selection note on the page is the short version:

  • Lightbox can use any shared account. If none is selected, the default account is used.
  • Viewer uses your Joints account when available. If shared accounts are allowed, it can fall back to the selected shared account or the default. If they are not allowed, ask IT to enable your Joints account.

Room Scheduling

Create rules so the rooms you watch change on a schedule — for example every Monday, or the 2nd and 4th Friday. This is the same idea as Room Scheduling in Viewer.

  1. Choose Edit Rules.
  2. Add Daily, Weekly, or Monthly rules, enable them, and pick rooms.
  3. Use Apply Rules, or a rule’s Run Now, to apply immediately.

Account

This section shows your name and email.

Change Password

  1. Choose Change Password.
  2. Enter your Current Password.
  3. Enter a new password and verify it.
  4. Choose Set new password.

A new password must be at least 12 characters and include a lowercase letter, an uppercase letter, a number, and a symbol. The page shows strength as you type. Choose Cancel to return to Settings without changing it.

If you do not remember the current password, use Forgot password from the login page instead.

Tips

  • Settings apply to your Link account on every computer you use.
  • Ask IT before changing Lightbox or Viewer accounts if you are not sure which one the room should use.
