Starting the 3di

1. use either the shortcut on your Desktop called 3di5_run

2. or the corresponding entry reached via the 3di5_run item in the Start menu

The 3di will open displaying the Main Menu:

When you first use the 3di, the system may not be linked to a backend for data storage. If the Main Menu indicates no backend, then to get started you will need to:

• select the provided Training5 backend or create a first backend for your own use

Once a backend is in place, you can:

• open the Case Manager and proceed to enter and interview a patient

The 3di toolbar appears on the Add-Ins tab of the Access ribbon. The buttons on the toolbar are illustrated and explained in the following pages.

if you feel the ribbon takes up an undue amount of space you can make it a ribbon which appears when you click a ribbon tab and disappears when you make a choice from the ribbon: you simply double-click the tab to switch its behaviour around.
