Trophy Bridge
In the Main Menu, click Setup, Program Links. Double-click Trophy.
After version 5.0, this is known as Kodak Dental Imaging (KDI). Also use this bridge for some Carestream products.
There are two different Trophy bridges available:
To enable the bridge:
Storage Path: The storage path might look similar to
\\SERVER\tw
orF:\tw
The storage path must be set to exactly the same value as the database location within Trophy. The location for the database can be edited within the Trophy program. Trophy uses this database path when searching for patients.
Simple Bridge
If using the simple bridge, Open Dental always simply uses the Open Dental PatNum to name the Trophy folders. For example, for John Smith, PatNum=123, his images might be found in this folder:
\\SERVER\tw\123
If the bridge is not working, troubleshoot it by creating a Windows shortcut. The location / target is the Trophy program itself. For example, C:\Program Files\Trophy\TW.exe. After creating the shortcut, right-click on it and select properties. Edit the target. Add a space after the original target and then -P, then no space, then the full path to a patient folder without any trailing \. Similar to this:
C:\Program Files\Trophy\TW.exe -PF:\tw\G.rvg\G0000001
Close the properties window. Then, click the shortcut to test. This simulates exactly what Open Dental is doing. If this does not work, then Open Dental will not work either. If it does work, change the settings in Open Dental to match.
