Med Manager Software – Web based application for remote management of cart settings and med drawer access permissions for carts. Provides admins detailed control over cart behavior and user permissions individually or in groups. Data from carts throughout your fleet is continuously pushed up to and stored in Med Manager for later review including general cart configuration data and detailed information about who accessed which drawers and when. No software that requires admin updates, such as changes to user passcodes, be made at each individual cart.

Power Manager – Power Manager is a powerful web-based tool for remote monitoring and management of cart power systems on your entire fleet of Howard Medical carts. The application runs as a web service allowing easy access by an administrator anywhere on your network via a web browser. Carts on your network will automatically 'call home' to Power Manager, announce themselves and request to be managed and then periodically 'call home' to report power system data.

Power Display – Power Display is a web-based tool that runs on the local computing device on each cart providing direct access to power supply data as well as communication with Power Manager.

Power Display also provides a small on-screen battery fuel gauge that displays real time battery capacity and charging state. The web interface provided by Power Display allows you to view the cart’s real time power data, power data logs, and event data logs from a browser either locally at the cart or from any location on the network.

Med Display –

Med Display is a Windows application that runs on the local computing device on each cart providing direct access to local med drawer cabinets, cart settings, audit records, and drawer calibration. The Med Display background service, which is transparent to local users, handles communication with Med Manager and periodically “calls home” to report any new audit data and retrieve any pending cart updates.

Onsite Setup and Integration – A Howard Medical authorized technician will complete the on-site setup and integration of the Howard Medical carts. Technical Training and In-Service Training are not required. The visit will be coordinated with logistics, the Vendor and site coordinators after the carts have been delivered and computing devices have been imaged by

OIT.
