Patient Tracker User Options
Use the Patient Tracker user options to choose which patients to include in your Patient Tracker module or widget window. You may choose which Patient Tracker sections to show (i.e. Arriving, Waiting, Seated, or Check-Out patients), and filter patients by orthodontist, office, or assistant. In addition, you can assign a sound to play when a patient enters any of your displayed areas, and choose whether appointment timers count up or down. Your choices are operator-specific, and can be different for the Patient Tracker module and the Patient Tracker widget.
Assign Settings Tool - These settings are specific to you, and will follow you on whatever computer you log into: Other operators may have different settings. If another operator has the settings you want to use for your Patient Tracker module, that operator can use the Assign Options tool to copy those settings to you, or vice-versa. Note that the Assign Options tool copies settings for the Patient Tracker module, not the Patient Tracker widget.
Open User Options From a Ribbon Bar
Open the User Options window from the File, Home, Patient, or Scheduler ribbon bar. Then choose the Patient Tracker tab to open the User Options window for your Patient Tracker module.
Patient Tracker Module Only - This method opens User Options for your Patient Tracker module, opened from within Edge Cloud, and not the Patient Tracker application opened outside of Edge Cloud, or your Patient Tracker widget.

Module vs. Widget Settings - You can use different settings for your Patient Tracker module and Patient Tracker widget. Also, not all settings are available for the Patient Tracker widget, noted below.
General Settings
Filter by Office, Doctor, Assistant - Select to view all patients, or only those whose appointments are assigned to a specific doctor, office, and / or assistant.
Show / Hide Patient Thumbnail Image - Choose whether to include a patient photo in the Patient Tracker. This is a single setting that affects all sections of the Patient Tracker
Timer Count Up - Enable this option if you want the appointment timer on both your Patient Tracker and Treatment Hub to count the number of minutes an appointment has taken so far. When an appointment goes over the scheduled amount of time, the timer will continue to count the number of minutes that have passed (46 minutes, 47, minutes etc.), and will start to blink.
Or, disable this option if you want the appointment timer on both your Patient Tracker and Treatment Hub to count down the number of minutes an appointment has left until it goes over the scheduled time. When an appointment goes over the scheduled amount of time, and the timer gets to 0, it begins to blink, and counts in negative numbers the amount of time the appointment has gone over.
Patient Tracker / Treatment Hub Setting - Your Timer Count Up option affects both the Patient Tracker and Treatment Hub appointment timers.
Font Size - (Patient Tracker module setting only.) Enter a font size between 8 and 24 to select how big the words will appear on your Patient Tracker. You might consider using a large font size when you need to be able to view the Patient Tracker from across your operatory.
Arriving Interval - The Arriving section of the Patient Tracker automatically notifies you of patients whose appointment time is approaching, but who have not yet signed into your office. Use the Arriving Interval setting to enter the number of minutes before your patients' appointments are scheduled to being that you want their names to appear in the Arriving section.
Section Settings
Choose Sections to Display - - Enable each section of the Patient Tracker that you wish to include. For example, staff members that use the Patient Tracker at the front desk might enable the Arriving, Waiting, and Checkout sections, while staff members that use the Patient Tracker in the operatory might enable the Waiting, Seated, and Checkout sections.
"View" to Display - Your Patient Tracker "View" defines which details you see on your Patient Tracker, such as the patient name, appointment procedure, and waiting time. You can create as many views as you wish, and switch among them easily. When using the Patient Tracker module, you can choose a different view for each section, However, when using the Patient Tracker widget, you choose one view to use for all sections. (See "Patient Tracker Editor" for details about setting up your Views.)
Format - (Patient Tracker module setting only.) Choose how to display the patient data in your Patient Tracker: The Table format shows you each patient's information in a single row; the Card format shows you each patient's information in business card style; the Cardflow format also uses a business card style, but you includes additional details. You can choose a different format for each section of your Patient Tracker module. The Patient Tracker widget always uses the Table format.
Sound to Play - (Patient Tracker module setting only.) You may set up sounds to play whenever a patient moves into a specific Patient Tracker section. You can type the full path and file name of the sound file in the path field, or click 
Browse and select any .WAV sound file available to the workstation.
You can click another User Options tab at the left to work with other Edge Cloud settings, or click Ok to immediately save any changes, and exit the window.
