When configuring a Windows service for HL7, apply the appropriate switch for the process you want to run in the Additional Arguments field.
-
The -ODBC= switch is required in order to specify the ODBC source.
-
Enter -HL7LISTENER to run the HL7 Listener as a service.
-
Enter -HL7AUTOSEND to run the HL7 Auto-Sender as a service.
Tip:
When configuring any service, name the service intuitively to reflect the process it will run. An intuitive naming convention will make it easier to manage and monitor the service.
