Configuring the SCP-ECG plug-in
The SCP-ECG plug-in is a standard communications protocol for computer-assisted
electrocardiography (EC71 or EN1064). This plug-in, which works with the CPSAPI
software module, enables you to configure the CardioPerfect Workstation software to
import resting ECG tests from non-Welch Allyn devices and to export ECG tests to non-
Welch Allyn record management systems using a format translator, for example Datamed
(sold separately).
To configure CPSAPI plug-ins, you modify an XML configuration file, and then restart the
CardioPerfect Services service.
The plug-in file, named CPSAPI.config, is stored in the local folder with the CPSAPI
service executable. By default, this folder is C:\Program Files\Welch Allyn\CPSAPI.
For a description of the CPSAPI module, see
“About CP 100 and CP 200 connectivity
