In order to use the RED interchange API you will need an account in RED. Please contact us for an offer and help.
If you have a RED account open RED in your web browser https://redclient.redmedical.de/redclient/index.html and log in using your user credentials. If you log in on a machine for the first time you will be prompted to install RED commander. RED commander is a local application enabling RED to access the local resources and to execute the FHIR server. Download and install the RED commander using the installation wizard.

The FHIR interface is disable by default. If it is to be used the FHIR server must be enabled for each machine. Log in as an administrator user and navigate to management of terminals (search for #b arbeits and select Arbeitsplätze.

RED shows a list of all FHIR interfaces defined for this terminal. A FHIR interface may be active or paused. Active FHIR interfaces are marked by Aktiv. Click on FHIR-Schnittstelle hinzufügen to create a new FHIR interface or FHIR-Schnittstelle bearbeiten to modify an existing definition.
