## Configure Query SCU Service Properties

Before querying a remote machine, select an Application Entity that supports the Query SCU service type and define the number of responses to be returned.

1. Open the DICOM Network Services utility by entering the following at the IDL command prompt:

   DICOMEX_NET

2. On the Configuration tab, modify settings in the Query Retrieve SCU Application Entity area:

- Application Entity Name — select an Application Entity from the droplist. The default is IDL_AE_QUERY_SCU. If you have defined other Application Entities that use the Service Type of Query SCU, they will appear here.
- Max Query Responses — enter the maximum number matches to return for a query. The default value is 100.
