- a 'Toggle Timer' function which calculates scope-in time duration.
- VGA image frame grabs are “continuous, pseudo-live” grabs, in the MIL parlance. They occur using the hardware capabilities of the Matrox Orion PC board directly to the image buffer 72 associated with the VGA display ( Figure 5). As mentioned, it is required that the images be scaled to fit into the VGA ActiveX cutout so they are not true "live grabs”. Unlike the RGB, VGA image grabs are field-level, not frame level, and no non-imaging cutouts are overlaid on it. Thus, no Windows or MIL "bliting", is involved, making it a much simpler configuration.

- the captured image(s) 220 is(are) displayed in the Images capture screen portion 210 in sequence, and subsequently stored, deleted, or printed at the discretion of the user. It should be understood that a similar sequence of events is available for recordation of video clips.
- a Scope Information section 225 is displayed providing functionality for enabling selection of the Scope Information, for example, when a type of scope is changed during a procedure.
- the scope information is further associated with the stored images and any corresponding report and patient record generated and stored within the EW system.
- the user is additionally able to select a Search mode by selecting an icon so enable the user to locate from a drop-down list the particular scope needed to be added.
- a Scope Model List screen is displayed (not shown). Via a Search icon (listed under the serial number) a model number is selected in addition to a serial number.
- a user is enabled to select the Time icon 230 and select the current time or, alternatively enter it manually.
- the Calculate Duration icon 235 the system calculates the duration of scope use for the procedure, and further enables calculation of the Total Duration time that the scope has been used.
- the EW system enables the user to program the system to automatically collect Scope In and Out Times. That is, upon automatic recognition and identification of a scope being used for a procedure, timestamps for the scope representing in and out time are automatically captured.
- the system also enables the user to collect Scope In and Out Times manually by pressing a button on the scope that is allocated "toggle timer" on the node setting screen as shown in Figure 8. This is especially useful when user exchange scopes during a procedure. For instance as shown in the Figure 11, two scope models are shown as having been used during a particular procedure such that a first had been used for 10 minutes and a second has been used for a total of 20 minutes for a total duration of 30 minutes, for example.
