CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your selection of the Will-Call IntelliCab™ System from GSL
Solutions, Inc. Equipped with radio frequency identification, or RFID, the
IntelliCab is an intelligent new system designed to provide user accountability as
you identify, track, store, and accurately retrieve every prescription ─ every time!
From the very first day of operation, your new IntelliCab System will make your
will-call pharmacy operation more productive, more efficient, and much easier to
manage on a day-to-day basis. When your system goes “live,” you’ll experience
the benefits of the IntelliCab System firsthand as you streamline your pharmacy
workflow, improve accuracy, reduce costs, and deliver outstanding customer
service.
The System combines standard RFID tags (affixed to our SmartBaskets™) with
GSL’s proprietary RFID readers, our unique lockable electronic cabinet design,
our three-dimensional storage drawers, and our real-time IntelliSys™ tracking
software. The sleek, uncluttered design of the IntelliCab System creates a
professional, HIPAA-compliant appearance. And the system is very easy to use.
Once installed, your IntelliCab will virtually eliminate filing and retrieval errors,
annoying waiting lines, rummaging through hanging bags or drawers, and
dissatisfied customers.
1.1. USING THE INTELLICAB™ SYSTEM
► At its most basic level, the System has two primary user operations:
1) Filing prescriptions into the system, and
2) Retrieving prescriptions from the system.
Filing Prescriptions: The filing process begins when prescriptions are
“linked” for tracking. Each of the GSL workflow baskets, called
“SmartBaskets,” has an RFID chip embedded in one end. One or more
prescriptions for a single patient are then individually “associated” or linked
to the basket(s). GSL refers to this process as “coupling.”
During the coupling process, GSL makes use of the pharmacy management
interface to verify that no two patients’ prescriptions are accidentally bundled
within the same SmartBasket. This reduces the possibility of “mis-bundling”
prescriptions. Once SmartBasket-prescription combinations have been
coupled, they can be filed in any available IntelliCab location. Every cell in
each of the IntelliCab drawers contains an RFID reader that automatically
records the presence and location of the SmartBasket. This feature allows
the user to file “coupled” SmartBaskets anywhere they fit within the
IntelliCab.
Retrieving Prescriptions: Prescriptions are retrieved using GSL’s
intelligent Pick to the Light technology. The IntelliCab employs a
INTELLICAB USER MANUAL GSL-ISUM-02.0-RETAIL October 2011 © 2011 GSL Solutions, Inc.
Page 8 of 103
combination of Lights, Sound and RFID technology to deliver real-time
confirmation that the worker retrieved the correct prescription(s).
1.1.1. SYSTEM OPERATIONS
User accountability is a key feature of the System. During System setup, each user is given a defined User Role and assigned a User
SmartBadge™. The User Role determines which system operations will
be available to the particular user, and the SmartBadge confirms the
user’s access for every operation. From linking prescriptions to opening
drawers, user access and all system activity are recorded in real-time.
Five basic user roles must be defined when the system is installed: the
Operators, the Pharmacists (RPh), the Vault Tech, the Supervisors, and
the Administrators. A checklist for entering users into the system is
provided in Appendix A.
1.1.1.1. Operators. In general, all users can perform the following
operations:
 ENTRY [F1] is used to enter customer data and begin the filing
process, including the linking/unlinking process of
associating with SmartBaskets.
 SEARCH [F2] is used for will-call lookup and prescription retrieval.
 RETURN TO STOCK [F4] is used to locate items to be restocked.
 HISTORY [F7] is used to locate available information about single
or multiple prescriptions, whether or not they have been
delivered.
 REPORTS [F10] are used to Print reports or Save them to a file.
1.1.1.2. RPH. Reserved for the Pharmacist. The Pharmacist can override
warnings, but does not have access to the Admin [Press Alt+A]
screen.
1.1.1.3. Supervisors perform the general operations, above, plus:
 INSPECT [F6] – locate prescriptions for verification (does not
unlink).
NOTE: The System software provides real-time tracking of
prescriptions. All screens are dynamic, and refresh in real time,
so users continuously receive accurate information.
1.1.1.4. Administrators have a unique set of functions they must
perform to prepare the system for use and maintenance. The
Administrator functions are included in Chapter 9. A separate
function –ADMIN [A + Alt]– is available only to Administrative
personnel and is used to configure the database, enter
INTELLICAB USER MANUAL GSL-ISUM-02.0-RETAIL October 2011 © 2011 GSL Solutions, Inc.
Page 9 of 103
SmartBadge and user I.D. information, set intervals for reports,
etc.
1.1.2. TERMS
The following terms are used throughout this Guide.
Coupling Station – The physical location of one of the networked PCs,
which may include an RFID pad reader and a barcode scanner, where
prescriptions are linked (“coupled”) to their basket I.D., identified in the
database, and sealed for shelving.
SmartCells™ – The uniquely-identified locations, or “cubbies,” into
which individual SmartBaskets are placed.
FOA – “Fill On Arrival.” Term used in retail. Interchangeable with TOS;
“Temporarily Out of Stock” or Partial Fill.
Will-Call Client (WCC) – The interface between the users and the
IntelliSys server. Allows the users to access the database and
IntelliCabs.
AutoSign™ – An add-on system to IntelliSys to electronically capture,
store, and manage signatures. This feature may be configured as
signature required for no safety caps, all prescriptions, for controlled
substances, or for special handling drugs.
1.1.3. EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION
IntelliPad™ – RFID pad reader, located on or under the counter at the
coupling station.
IntelliCab™ – The cabinets that house 3 to 4 drawers using RFID
technology to track prescriptions. Each drawer operates independently
of each other. So in an event where a drawer has become unusable, the
adjacent drawers can house the prescriptions until the drawer can be
repaired.
IntelliSys™ Server – The primary computer containing GSL’s software
and the IntelliCab database; used for managing the IntelliCab System.
The IntelliSys Server includes two customized servers – a primary and a
backup.
SmartBaskets™ – GSL’s patented containers equipped with RFID tags
and lids. Used as containers for all prescription information and
materials throughout the filling, storing and retrieval process.
INTELLICAB USER MANUAL GSL-ISUM-02.0-RETAIL October 2011 © 2011 GSL Solutions, Inc.
Page 10 of 103
SmartBadge™ – An I.D. badge that uses the same RFID technology as
the SmartBaskets to identify users to the IntelliCab drawers and the WillCall Client.
2D Scanner – Multiple purpose scanner. Used primarily at customer
pickup windows for its ability to read 2 dimensional barcodes on I.D.
cards.
Bluetooth scanner – Wireless scanner used to remotely couple items
into overstock and refrigerator locations.
Signature Pad – A USB powered device used in conjunction with
AutoSign to capture a patient’s signature.

CHAPTER 2.
BASIC SYSTEM OPERATION
The System differentiates between logging in at the beginning of your shift and
logging in during your shift to use the System. At the beginning of your shift, an
RFID SmartBadge must be associated to the user and log-in credentials must be
entered. During your shift, logging in is as simple as placing your associated
badge on the RFID pad, by scanning the barcode on your badge, or typing the
SmartBadge’s three-digit code.
2.1. STARTING INTELLISYS ON THE WORKSTATION
If the software is not yet in use on the workstation, you must begin by
double-clicking the GSL Solutions icon on the desktop. The software
performs an automatic verification to ensure the system is using the most
current version. If updates are available, automatic downloading begins and a
progress box is displayed.
A splash screen appears containing a series of check boxes. If any part of
the initialization process is interrupted, the user should contact their IT
department. Splash screen initialization includes:
a.

2.2. LOGGING IN/OUT OF THE SYSTEM.
2.2.1. LOGGING IN AT THE BEGINNING OF SHIFT.
Users must log-in at the start of each shift. The duration of each shift is
determined by the Administrator. To log-in, Users identify themselves by
using the User SmartBadge associated with them for that day. Logging in
can be accomplished by placing the SmartBadge on an IntelliPad, by
scanning the SmartBadge I.D. barcode with a barcode scanner, or by
typing in the SmartBadge’s three-digit code at the Log-in screen.
TIP: You can log-in to the IntelliSys System using any available client
workstation.
Figure 2. Log-in screen.
Place your I.D. badge on the RFID reader or barcode scanner to identify
your badge to the system. You may also enter the three alphanumeric
characters displayed on your GSL RFID badge (its “friendly name”).
After you have identified your badge to the system enter your Log-in name
and password. The Log-in name is not case sensitive. The password is
case-sensitive.
You only have to log-in once per day or per shift. After you have logged in,
your badge is activated for the duration of your shift.
If you manually enter the information, your log-in Name and Password must
be entered accurately before you will be given access to the System.

Page 13 of 103
2.2.2. ACCESSING (USING) THE SYSTEM
After completing the ‘beginning of shift’ log-in; the user can access the
System by:
a) Placing the associated I.D. badge on an RFID reader;
b) scanning the SmartBadge barcode with any available GSL scanner,
or,
c) typing the SmartBadge “friendly” name and providing username and
password.
2.2.3. MULTIPLE SERVER LOG-IN
Some installations of IntelliSys require independent servers for multiple
local pharmacies. While each pharmacy “site” is accessible from any
location, you must treat each log-in as unique for each location. For
instance, if you log-into pharmacy A for the day and later need to
access the database at pharmacy B, you must also log-in in for the day
at pharmacy B.
When logging into a system with multiple servers, you must first select
the proper location and log-in as normal. To access the Log-in screen,
press [F9] to log-out and then click the “Switch Servers” button.
Figure 3. The server selection dialog box. Select the server you wish to
log-in to and click the OK button.

CHAPTER 3. ENTER PRESCRIPTIONS INTO THE SYSTEM – ENTRY [ F1 ]
WORKING AREA
Figure 6. ENTRY [F1] screen. The Working Area is used to provide all the necessary
information about a given prescription or set of prescriptions. The right side provides
current status of the prescription(s).
Note: For installations where multiple local pharmacies can be accessed,
you must first select and log-into the proper location before entering
prescriptions into the system. (See section 2.2.3.)
► During the prescription entry process, the System software continuously
displays the real-time status of items associated with a given patient, as shown in
the two areas on the right side of the entry screen. In the Associated items area
on the left side of the ENTRY [F1] screen, icon buttons are used to provide
additional information or to modify a prescription entry.
3.1. USING THE ENTRY [F1] SCREEN
The association between a SmartBasket and the prescription(s) it contains must
be entered into the system at some time during the production process, before
the prescription is filed. This process is known as “coupling” or “linking”.
Types of Coupling:




Coupling prescriptions to a SmartBasket.
Coupling prescriptions in the Refrigerator.
Coupling prescriptions to the Oversized Area.

Coupling Tip: The System requires coupling to be done in a series of
predetermined sequences. First, it wants to see a SmartBasket on the
IntelliPad. After the System successfully reads the SmartBasket, you can
then scan the Rx number barcode.
3.1.1. NORMAL COUPLING
1. Use your badge to identify yourself and access the database (Log-in).
2. Press F1 to access the ENTRY screen. Note the three main areas of the
screen (Figure 6).
3. Use the IntelliPad RFID reader to read the SmartBasket RFID tag.
4. Scan the prescription to enter the item number, patient name, etc., into the
database. The SmartBasket I.D. is now ‘coupled’ to the prescription(s); the
Basket/Location is shown at the lower left of the screen, and the item is added to
the list on the lower right of linked prescriptions ready for filing, under ‘Current
status of recent transactions.’
TIP: Be sure to wait to hear the confirming beeps before removing or filing
the SmartBasket. If you don’t hear a confirming beep but the screen
acknowledges you have successfully coupled the prescription, check the
volume setting on the workstation’s external speakers.
Note: If you get out of sequence and scan a prescription barcode and no
SmartBasket is present on the IntelliPad RFID reader, a warning is displayed on
the screen. Plus, your scanner will alarm and beep until you acknowledge the
error. Click the OK button to proceed.
The “No Baskets” section of the screen must be kept empty. This section
highlights prescriptions that have been entered into the system but have not yet
been associated with a SmartBasket or Oversize bin. Any entries in the “No
Baskets” section must be reconciled before proceeding.

Figure 7. ENTRY [F1] screen: Scan rejected - no SmartBasket present. Click the
OK button to proceed.
3.1.2. COUPLING PRESCRIPTION(S) IN THE REFRIGERATOR
Note: You can file refrigerator items using any of the GSL
“Workstations” or “Coupling” (with IntelliPad) stations. The filing
process is slightly different depending on the type of scanner (tethered
or wireless) associated with the workstation.
3.1.2.1.
COUPLING STATION WITH WIRELESS SCANNER
If using a GSL Coupling Station (with an IntelliPad), the user must
a) Click on the ‘Allow RX Scan Without Basket’ button located in the
upper-right of the Entry [F1] screen (see Figure 8).
b) Scan the barcode on the desired prescription(s) with the wireless
Bluetooth scanner.
c) Locate an empty bar-coded storage bin in the refrigerator. Scan the
barcode on the empty bin and the user will hear a “happy” chirp
indicating the linking occurred.
Note: The “Allow Rx Scan Without a Basket” button will deactivate after
each successful coupling attempt and must be reclicked to couple to
another location.

Figure 8. Entry screen close-up showing the “Allow Rx Scan without Basket” message.
3.1.2.2. COUPLING STATION WITH TETHERED SCANNER
In this case, the user must bring the empty refrigerator basket to the workstation.
The process is similar to 3.1.2.1:
a) The user must click on the ‘Allow RX Scan Without Basket’ button
located in the upper-right of the ENTRY [F1] screen (see Figure 8).
b) Scan the prescription number barcode(s).
c) Scan the barcode on the empty bin and the user will hear a “happy”
chirp indicating the linking occurred.
3.1.2.3. WORKSTATION WITH TETHERED SCANNER
Note:
By definition “Workstations” do NOT have an associated
IntelliPad. It is not necessary to click the “Allow RX Scan Without
Basket” button. In fact the button won’t be visible in the Workstation
configurations.
The process:
a) Go to the ENTRY [F1] screen.
b) Scan the prescription number barcode(s)
c) Scan the barcode on the empty bin and the user will hear a “happy”
chirp indicating the linking occurred.

3.1.3. COUPLING PRESCRIPTION(S) TO THE OVERSIZED AREA
To file prescriptions in the oversized area, follow the steps listed above in
section 3.1.2 COUPLING PRESCRIPTION(S) IN THE REFRIGERATOR.
3.1.4. CUSTOM ITEM COUPLING
A custom item is any non-prescription item without a barcode. For example
you can couple a lost I.D. card or a hard copy prescription, to be handed back
to the patient, into a SmartBasket.
1. Press [F1] to access the ENTRY screen.
2. Place a basket on the IntelliPad.
3. Enter the patient’s social security number into the “Rx or Name” field.
Note: entering the Patient’s social security number allows the items to be
found in the Search [F2] tab by scanning the patient’s I.D. card. If the
social security number is not known enter the patient’s last name; when
the patient returns the item will have to be found manually.
4. Enter all known customer information in the Customer Data field and click
OK. It is important to fill in as much demographic information as possible
to enable the Second Patient Identifier feature to work.
Figure 9. Customer data field.

3.3.1. FILE COUPLED PRESCRIPTIONS IN THE INTELLICAB
With multiple IntelliDrawers available, the users need to know which
IntelliDrawer has the most available “cubbies” for each size SmartBasket. To
find the most available, the user simply presses the round blue button on
ANY IntelliDrawer and the GSL Logo will light up the most available of each
size SmartBasket (small, medium, and large).
Once an IntelliCab drawer is identified as having the most available space,
the user must “authenticate” access to the IntelliCab by holding his/her
SmartBadge up to the numeric pad on the IntelliDrawer. (Users must log-in
at the start of the shift before they are allowed to access the IntelliDrawers.
See Chapter 2, section 2.1.) When authenticated, the GSL Logo flashes to
notify the user that access has been granted.
Once authenticated, open the drawer and place the appropriate
SmartBasket in any available cubby. The SmartBasket is placed into the
cubby with the opening facing out. Once the SmartBasket is “shelved,” green
indicator lights flash below the SmartBasket and a “happy” chirp notifies the
user the SmartBasket has been shelved successfully.
After the user shelves all available SmartBaskets of a particular size, or
when there are no empty cubbies remaining, simply close the drawer.
Repeat as necessary.
1. PRESS BUTTON FOR LOCATION
2. AUTHENTICATE TO OPEN
3. FILE ANYWHERE IT FITS
Figure 25. Filing linked SmartBaskets into the IntelliCab.
TIP: Be sure to wait until you see the lights below the baskets blink and hear

4.3.3. MANDATORY CONSULT.
The Mandatory Consult feature involves
drugs that need special handling by the RPh in order to ensure that
the prescription is dispensed to the correct patient.
The dispensing clerk attempts to perform the retrieval operation and
receives a message that a RPh MUST become involved. (Figure 36)
At this point the RPh needs to log-in and perform the Pull [F12],
retrieval and deliver functions.
Figure 36. Mandatory Consult. Special Handling Required.
The RPh logs-in, receives the Second Patient Identifier screen and
must enter the secondary identification or override. (Figures 37 and

4.3.4. AUTHENTICATE. After identifying the IntelliCab which displays the
light and number matching that on the workstation, hold the
SmartBadge up to the front panel on the IntelliCab to authenticate
access to the cabinet. The SmartBadge should be held there until the
identified number and light start blinking.
4.3.5. RETRIEVE. Once authenticated to access the IntelliCab, the user
opens the drawer and locates the SmartBasket with the 3 green LED
lights displayed BELOW the SmartBasket. The user removes the
SmartBasket and returns to the workstation. A patient may have
prescriptions in multiple SmartBaskets. If more than one SmartBasket
is lit, remove ALL SmartBaskets as noted above. If more than one
IntelliCab is displaying the user’s number and light, this process can
be repeated as necessary. Once all SmartBaskets are retrieved, the
workstation will return to the Search [F2] screen.
4.3.6. If the workstation displays ‘Your Current Manual Pick List:’ the user
proceeds to the location listed on the screen and retrieves the items.

CHAPTER 6. INSPECT PRESCRIPTIONS - INSPECT [ F6 ]
The INSPECT [F6] function allows a user to retrieve and inspect the contents of a
linked SmartBasket(s). After the SmartBasket is retrieved, it may either be unlinked
or re-shelved without having to re-link the contents to the SmartBasket.
Tip: This function can be very useful if you want to find all locations of
prescriptions for drug recalls.

Finding and selecting prescriptions in the Inspect tab works very similarly to the
Search and RTS tabs. You may sort the database by clicking the header at the
top of the columns, typing in the white boxes located above each column, or by
using the search bar unique to the Inspect tab.
A combination of search strings can be entered in the search bar. The following
table lists all the possible searchable data.

An unchecked box will list only Non-controlled items.
Simply type the information you are searching for and click the Filter button on
the right side of the screen. A table will appear with the results (Figure 51).
Left mouse click on the first item to highlight; then right mouse click to see a text
box of options. At this point you have two choices: Enable the item to pull for
inspection, or Show Details for…1. Container or 2.Patient name and prescription
data.
Figure 51. INSPECT [F6] screen – right mouse click to enable pull for inspection.
If an item is Enabled to pull for inspection, then follow the lights to the IntelliCab
that displays the number and color displayed on the screen (same as the
retrieval process).
Once you retrieve the item for inspection, the prescription may be decoupled
from the SmartBasket (see ENTRY [F1] screen) or re-shelved. If you want to
return the prescription to the cabinet (in the original SmartBasket) you may
simply return it to any open cubby in the same IntelliDrawer as long as the
drawer remained open during inspection. If you closed the drawer after
retrieval, the item must be Verified [F3] before returning it to the IntelliDrawer.

The States drop down box is a list of all the possible
actions that may have been taken on a particular
prescription. Check the box to select the appropriate
action.

The filter is used to filter specific elements from the database. The filter works
exactly as the filter in the Inspect [F6] tab. See 6.1 for more information. Once
a prescription is delivered, it will no longer show an association with a Basket.
Notes can be added to specific prescriptions and recalled later from this
screen by clicking on Add Notes.
