NAME
       echoscu - DICOM verification (C-ECHO) SCU

SYNOPSIS
       echoscu [options] peer port

DESCRIPTION
       The  echoscu  application implements a Service Class User (SCU) for the
       Verification SOP	Class. It sends	a DICOM	C-ECHO message	to  a  Service
       Class  Provider	(SCP) and waits	for a response.	The application	can be
       used to verify basic DICOM connectivity.

NOTES
   DICOM Conformance
       The echoscu application supports	the following SOP Classes as an	SCU:

       VerificationSOPClass				   1.2.840.10008.1.1

       By default, the echoscu application will	 only  propose	this  transfer
       syntax:

       LittleEndianImplicitTransferSyntax		   1.2.840.10008.1.2

       If  the	--propose-ts  option  is used, the following transfer syntaxes
       will also be proposed, depending	on  the	 numeric  value	 'n'  that  is
       passed to this option:

LOGGING
       The  level  of  logging	output	of  the	various	command	line tools and
       underlying libraries can	be specified by	the  user.  By	default,  only
       errors  and  warnings  are  written to the standard error stream. Using
       option --verbose	also informational messages  like  processing  details
       are  reported.  Option  --debug	can be used to get more	details	on the
       internal	activity, e.g. for debugging purposes.	Other  logging	levels
       can  be	selected  using	option --log-level. In --quiet mode only fatal
       errors are reported. In such very severe	error events, the  application
       will  usually  terminate.  For  more  details  on the different logging
       levels, see documentation of module 'oflog'.

       In case the logging output should be written to file  (optionally  with
       logfile	rotation),  to syslog (Unix) or	the event log (Windows)	option
       --log-config can	be used.  This	configuration  file  also  allows  for
       directing  only	certain	messages to a particular output	stream and for
       filtering certain messages based	on the	module	or  application	 where
       they  are  generated.  An  example  configuration  file	is provided in
       <etcdir>/logger.cfg.

COMMAND	LINE
       All command line	tools  use  the	 following  notation  for  parameters:
       square  brackets	 enclose  optional  values  (0-1), three trailing dots
       indicate	that multiple values are allowed (1-n),	a combination of  both
       means 0 to n values.

       Command line options are	distinguished from parameters by a leading '+'
       or  '-' sign, respectively. Usually, order and position of command line
       options are arbitrary (i.e. they	 can  appear  anywhere).  However,  if
       options	are  mutually exclusive	the rightmost appearance is used. This
       behavior	conforms to the	 standard  evaluation  rules  of  common  Unix
       shells.

       In  addition,  one  or more command files can be	specified using	an '@'
       sign as a prefix	to the filename	(e.g. @command.txt).  Such  a  command
       argument	 is  replaced  by  the	content	of the corresponding text file
       (multiple whitespaces are treated as a  single  separator  unless  they
       appear  between	two  quotation marks) prior to any further evaluation.
       Please note that	a command file cannot contain  another	command	 file.
       This  simple  but  effective  approach  allows  one to summarize	common
       combinations of options/parameters and  avoids  longish	and  confusing
       command lines (an example is provided in	file <datadir>/dumppat.txt).

EXIT CODES
       The  echoscu  utility  uses  the	following exit codes when terminating.
       This enables the	user to	check  for  the	 reason	 why  the  application
       terminated.

   general
       EXITCODE_NO_ERROR			 0
       EXITCODE_COMMANDLINE_SYNTAX_ERROR	 1

   input file errors
       EXITCODE_CANNOT_READ_INPUT_FILE		20 (*)
       EXITCODE_INVALID_INPUT_FILE		22

   output file errors
       EXITCODE_CANNOT_WRITE_OUTPUT_FILE	40 (*)

   network errors
       EXITCODE_CANNOT_INITIALIZE_NETWORK	60 (*)
       EXITCODE_ASSOCIATION_ABORTED		70

       (*)  Actually,  these codes are currently not used by echoscu but serve
       as a placeholder	for the	corresponding group of exit codes.

ENVIRONMENT
       The echoscu utility  will  attempt  to  load  DICOM  data  dictionaries
       specified  in the DCMDICTPATH environment variable. By default, i.e. if
       the  DCMDICTPATH	 environment   variable	  is   not   set,   the	  file
       <datadir>/dicom.dic  will be loaded unless the dictionary is built into
       the application (default	for Windows).

       The  default  behavior  should  be  preferred   and   the   DCMDICTPATH
       environment  variable  only used	when alternative data dictionaries are
       required. The DCMDICTPATH environment variable has the same  format  as
       the  Unix  shell	PATH variable in that a	colon (':') separates entries.
       On Windows systems, a semicolon (';') is	used as	a separator. The  data
       dictionary  code	 will  attempt	to  load  each	file  specified	in the
       DCMDICTPATH environment variable. It is an error	if no data  dictionary
       can be loaded.
