How to Export a patient's movies from one Tekscan application for viewing in another Tekscan application

Question/Problem: How can I Export a patient's movies from my Tekscan application for viewing in another Tekscan application?

Answer/Solution: This can be done only in Tekscan applications which include a Patient Database.  When a movie has been recorded on another computer, you may wish to import it into the Patient File Management system.

Please note that the patient's movies will all be exported to a single file which will be named with the extension: .tpm

You will need to Import the .tpm file in another Tekscan application which includes a Patient Database in order to see the individual movies.
