1. Introduction
1.1. Intended Use
The CSP dashboard (also called myQA Cockpit) is a software that retrieves and displays previously
measured or stored QA results from treatment and diagnostics devices as well as patient QA data. It
addresses medical physicists and radiooncologists with a grouped overview of test results, work tasks
and trend analysis on existing data.
The CSP dashboard (thereafter called myQA Cockpit) does not itself control the functions or
parameters of any other medical device, but displays the results of Quality Assurance procedures for
analysis, reporting and printing.
Note: For Non-Intended Use and Intended Users, see Sections 1.2 and 1.3, Vol.1, myQA Platform and
Devices User’s Guide, respectively.

1.2. General Product Description

myQA Cockpit is a web application - a component of the myQA® software package which allows clinical
users to read Machine QA data online. It connects to the myQA database server and is used to display
QA results from Machines, imaging devices, and patient based QA results (plan verification) online.
The web based viewer does not require local installation and can be accessed from anywhere in the
clinic. It can be browsed on different browsers, e.g., desktop or mobile.
myQA Cockpit should be purchased separately. However, according to the Intended Use, myQA
Cockpit is not a stand-alone product. It should be used together with myQA Platform and at least one of
the myQA application modules.

1.2.1. Basic Functionalities

myQA Cockpit displays four pages:
■ Dashboard
This is the start page of the myQA Cockpit. It displays the machines defined in the Equipment
Setup page in the myQA Platform. Only the machines marked for display by checking the Show in
Cockpit box in the myQA Platform - Equipment Setup - Machine Editor dialog are displayed.
■ Test Results
 Displays the latest status of the machine for the active protocol including various levels of
details:
o The machine overall status
o Status of tasks
o Status of tests including the detailed measurement results per test
 Provides the latest QA statistics per task
■ Trend Analysis
Provides a graph of the test results, expected values, and the specified tolerances (warning and fail)
versus the execution dates.
■ Patients
Shows the patients listed in myQA Patients including the projects assigned. By default, the project
with the latest change date is shown per patient. All assigned projects per patient can be viewed by
expansion.

myQA User's Guide - Vol.2. myQA Cockpit | Introduction | 1

1.2.2. Multiple Users
Multiple users can use myQA Cockpit from different computers at the same time. As it is just a viewer,
no conflicts due to multiple data access can occur.

1.2.3. Units
Cockpit uses the units defined in the myQA workspace: myQA Platform > Options > Platform >
Settings > Units. Changing the units in myQA Platform workspace will be reflected on myQA Cockpit
after refreshing the myQA Cockpit website (e.g. by pressing the F5 key on the computer keyboard.).

2.2. Installation

2.2.1. Installation Procedure

IM PO RT ANT N O T IC E
INSTALLATION
myQA Cockpit should be installed only once on a server that it is accessible by
all myQA Cockpit users. It does not need to be installed on every
computer/mobile device where myQA Cockpit will be accessed.

An IT administrator of a clinic may carry out the myQA Cockpit installation.

Insert the installation disc into the DVD drive of the computer.
Double click Cockpit.exe to start the installation wizard; myQA-Cockpit Setup Wizard opens.

Click Next > and follow the installation instructions.

During the installation process, the myQA Database Wizard will open and display the database
connection status.

myQA User's Guide - Vol.2. myQA Cockpit | Cockpit installation | 3

  If myQA Cockpit and myQA main SW are installed on the same computer, the database
connection will be automatically performed.
 If myQA Cockpit is installed on a different computer, click Import connection file, browse and
open the connection file created when installing myQA main SW, myQA-DB-Connection.ICSI.
o The connection file can be exported from the About myQA dialog of myQA.

o Once the connection file is imported, the database connection will be automatically
established.
 Click Finish.
Continue to follow the installation instructions in myQA-Cockpit Setup Wizard to finish the
installation.

Port selection
By default, myQA Cockpit uses Website Port 80, and IBA Service Port 52803. If one of these ports is
blocked by another application, the Cockpit Service Setup dialog will pop up during the installation to
notify the user and suggest a free port.

a b

Example: the default website port, 80, was blocked and the next free port, 81, is set.

If the user does not agree with the proposed port, the user can either
specify ports manually (a) or
click the Rescan button to set the next available port (b)
The selected ports will be saved upon clicking Save and Close and the installation will continue.

Note: If you want to use the start.html in the installation CD to install myQA Cockpit, please use the
Internet Explorer or Edge browser and do not use the Firefox or Chrome browser.
Opening the start.html with a Firefox or Chrome browser to install myQA Cockpit, a pop-up dialog
will ask either to save the *.exe file to a local folder on the computer or cancel the process.
Double-click the saved *.exe file to start the installation, the process is aborted at once. This
issue may be due to that the *.exe file is copied to a new folder while the rest of the installation
files are still in the original location.

myQA User's Guide - Vol.2. myQA Cockpit | Cockpit installation | 5

2.2.2. Use SQL Server User Authentication if myQA Cockpit
is installed on a different Computer
myQA Cockpit uses a Windows Service to connect to the SQL server database. If myQA Cockpit is
configured to use Windows Authentication, the user configured to run the myQA Windows service will
be used to access the databases. By default, this is “NT Authority\System”.
If myQA Cockpit is installed on a different computer than the SQL server, the service user (i.e., “NT
Authority\System” of myQA Cockpit computer) needs to be granted permission on the SQL server
(which has its own separate “NT Authority\System” user), in order for Windows Authentication to work.
This can be done either directly or by assigning the user to a group with permission on the SQL server.
In this scenario, we suggest using a SQL server user to connect to the database instead of using
Windows Authentication.

2.2.3. HTTPS Setup

It is recommended to use HTTPS to increase the website security. To use HTTPS, myQA Cockpit must
be configured with SSL certificates. IBA cannot produce SSL certificates for the clinics. The SSL
certificates can be purchased or self-created by the clinic itself.

Configuration of myQA Cockpit to use HTTPS

myQA Cockpit uses nginx as a web application server. Once the certificates are ready, nginx must to be
configured with these certificates. Please consult the documentation of nginx for instructions.
The nginx configuration file can be found in the following path:
C:\Program Files (x86)\IBA Dosimetry\myQA-Cockpit\WebSite\conf

The IBAWebserverWrapper windows service must be restarted after the configuration is finished.

To set the SSL certificates properly, myQA Cockpit should be hosted under a static IP or a domain
name. This IP address or domain name should be specified in the certificates. If the website address
specified in the certificates and the address to access myQA Cockpit are not matching; users may get
untrusted connection messages in browser.
Depending on your certificate status (e.g. when it is self-signed), users may still get an untrusted
connection error message in the browser.
In both cases, users can ignore the warning messages and proceed.

3. Task names of the active protocol and their latest status. The task name also serves as a link to
test results for this task to the Test Results view.
4. Icon which visualizes the machine type (see myQA Platform - Equipment Setup)

3.1.1. Machines QA Status

The machines can be sorted by status (Status↕) or alphabetically (A-Z↕). By default, the machines are
listed in order of "worst status first": Failed, Warning", Skipped and Passed. If multiple machines have
the same status, they are ordered alphabetically.
A symbol on the left side of the machine name indicates the overall status of this machine. It is
calculated based on the status of all last executed tasks of the machine and the following rules:

: "Passed" - if all task are passed

: "Failed" - if there is at least one failed task and not any overdue tasks

: "Warning" - if there is at least one warning and not any failed/overdue tasks

: "Skipped" - if there is at least one skipped and not any passed/warning/failed/overdue tasks

: "Overdue" - if there is at least one overdue task

: "Undefined" - if there is no skipped/passed/warning/failed/overdue task or no tasks under the

machine at all

4.2. Task Navigation Panel
The Test Results page shows the test results of the task selected in the navigation panel.
The navigation panel provides four filters, which adhere to a selection hierarchy from top to bottom as
how they are listed the navigation panel:

Task Navigation panel

The behavior of the Location filter is the same as in the Dashboard page (Chapter 3). For other filters,
when a filter is not defined (no items are selected), it is in gray color ( ). When a filter is defined, it
changes to orange color ( ).
Select Machine filter
It lists all machines that belong to the locations included by the Location filter. No more than one
machine can be selected simultaneously.
Select Task filter
It lists all tasks of the active protocol of the machine selected in the Select Machine filter.
The tests of the selected task will be displayed in the content area in category groups.
Approver filter
Enter an approver name or parts of it in the text box to filter by the approver name. If the Approver filter
is defined without defining the Select Tasks filter, you may need to define the Select Tasks filter
afterwards since one approver can approve more than one task.
Filters can be expanded or collapsed. The expanded Select Machine and Select Task filters show the
available machines or tasks and their status. See Section 3.1.1 (for machines) and Section 3.1.2 (for
tasks) for the description of the status symbols.

Expanded filter examples: Select Machine, or Select Tasks

If a status of a task was overwritten in myQA Machines, an info icon appears. Hovering over it will
display the original status.
The defined filters will be restored when reloading the page or switching to a different page and coming
back to the Test Results page. After the session is closed the filters will be reset.

: "Passed" – if there is at least one test passed and no warning/failed tests

: "Failed" – if there is at least one failed test

: "Warning" – if there is at least one test warning and no failed tests

: "Skipped" – if there is at least one test skipped and no passed/warning/failed tests

4.4.2. Expanded View of a Category

The tests of a category can be expanded / collapsed by clicking the row of the category (4c). The test
category of a test is defined in myQA Machines whenever a new protocol is created.
By default, if there is at least one failed test in a task, the test(s) are expanded when selecting this task
in the navigation panel, otherwise the tests are collapsed.
When a test category is expanded, the tests are shown with test name (Test Name), operator
(Executed by), finishing date and reference date (Finishing / Reference Date), and test results
(Status). The Finishing Date is the time when the task was finished. The Reference Date is set in the
myQA Machines > Test Run page and refers to the actual date of the measurement.
A test result, directly taken from the myQA Machines, has one of the following statuses, which is shown
in the Status column:

 7. Troubleshooting
Normally, IBACockpitApi and IBAWebserverWrapper windows services should be automatically
started after installation of myQA Cockpit and the computer is restarted. If myQA Cockpit cannot be
opened, check the Service of the computer:
Enter service in the Start menu and then click Service in the list. The Service window opens.
Check the status of IBACockpitApi and IBAWebserverWrapper. If they are not started, right-click
on the row of IBACockpitApi or IBAWebserverWrapper and select Restart, respectively.

If the IBAWebserverWrapper cannot be restarted, it may be due to the port used by myQA Cockpit
being assigned to another application. Re-assign a port in the nginx.conf file (in the folder: C:\Program
Files (x86)\IBA Dosimetry\myQA-Cockpit\WebSite\conf):
■ In case HTTP is used:
…
server {
listen 80;
…
■ In case HTTPS is used:
…
server {
listen 443 default ssl;
…
Replace the port number (text in red color) to a new port number which which is not used by another
application.
Enter service in the Start menu and then click Service in the list.
Right-click on the row of IBAWebserverWrapper and select Restart.
