Gateway Status Explained (SystmOne)
Your Gateway Status and date of last update appears in the top right corner of the Proactive Monitoring Tool. It shows the status of the data connection between the pipeline setup PC and the Tool. If data is more than 48 hours old, there is a problem with the connection and an alert will appear.

Green - connected
Data is flowing normally. No action needed.
Grey - needs a refresh
Click into the Population tab - this usually triggers the status to update to green.
Amber - disconnection detected (Day 2-6)
-
Day 2: lets you know the last data update was 2 days ago.
-
Day 4: the disconnection is ongoing and it's been 4 days since the last upload.
Red - lockout after 7 days
No clinical information will be displayed until the data is refreshed, to prevent out-of-date recommendations from being shown. Completing the reconnect steps will restore access.

How to reconnect the pipeline
To reconnect the pipeline, you need to ensure the following:
- Gateway PC is turned on and logged into
- SystmOne is logged into
- Proactive Monitoring Tool is running on the same Gateway PC
🕑Note: Data is processed overnight. Once reconnected, the warning will clear and access to the Proactive Monitoring Tool will typically be restored the following day.
Common causes of a broken pipeline
This is usually caused by one of the following:
- Setup PC is being logged into by different users
- Setup PC is turned off
- Setup PC has been changed or modified by IT
- SystmOne (TPP) is not set up to use high memory
- Proactive Monitoring Tool is not running
- Proactive Monitoring Tool has not updated
- Proactive Monitoring Tool has crashed
Setup PC is being logged into by different users
For the Abtrace Proactive Monitoring tool to operate correctly, the Gateway computer should only use one windows user (a generic user).
If multiple Windows users log in to the Gateway computer, the Proactive Monitoring tool might not be able to send the data across to Abtrace.
Setup PC is off
For the Proactive Monitoring tool to work correctly, the Gateway computer should stay turned on.
Please make sure not to turn the Gateway computer off.
Setup PC has been changed / modified by IT
Periodically, the IT department might go through an upgrade/update/maintenance on the Gateway computer. When this happens, it is often the case that they forget to configure the Abtrace Proactive Monitoring tool to transfer the data.
If you know of any scheduled maintenance planned on the Gateway computer, please get in touch by submitting a ticket or contacting our team at support@abtrace.co. We'd be happy to review the settings together.
TPP is not setup to use high memory
For SystemOne to be able to handle the daily extracts, the Gateway shortcut (usually on the desktop), needs to be configured to run on high memory usage.
To do this:
- find the Gateway SystmOne shortcut on your desktop
- right click on it > properties
- change the
targetfield to:C:\apps\Tpp\rungenps.bat -Xmx1024m -Xskipmemorycheck
Doing so might need admin rights. Please get in touch with your practice manager or IT department.
