LIS connection Instruction 1. Communication Mode & Parameter Setting 1.1 RS232 Port Parameter Setting Baud rate:38400 Data Bits:8 Stop Bit: 1 Check bit:N/A Data cable should directly connected with 2nd,3rd,5th feet, One end is male connection, the other end is 9 pin SATA(female connection). 1.2 The protocol is one way communication. The instrument send the data directly by RS232 port, the computer does not have to response to the received data. 2. Data Transmission form 2.1 The result data per frame is 57 bytes. Data Format Sum mode Frame Tail ( 2 Frame Header(4bytes) Data(50 bytes) Validation bytes) (1Byts ) As following table 0D,0A 0XFF,0x24,0XFF ,0X24 ? Data(50 bytes) 3. Sample Placeholder 1 byte Patient No. (ASCAII Code) 15 bytes ITEM Result Unit (ASCAII ( ASCA (ASCAII Code) II Code) Code) 8 bytes 6 bytes 8 bytes Reference Value (single-precision floating point number) Upper Limit:4 bytes Lower Limit: 4 bytes Sample No. (ASCAII Code) 4 bytes Received data as below: FF 24 FF 24 03 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 31 30 32 20 20 68 73 2D 43 52 50 20 20 3C 30 2E 35 20 20 20 20 6D 67 2F 4C 00 00 00 00 00 00 20 41 20 31 30 32 59 0D 0A Parsed as below: FF 24 FF 24 Instruction beginning symbol 4 bytes 03 Placeholder, meaningless 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 31 30 32 Patient Number, 15 bytes(ASCAII Code), the patient No. is 102. 20 20 68 73 2D 43 52 50 Test Item, 8 bytes(ASCAII Code), The test item is hsCRP 20 20 3C 30 2E 35 Test result, 6 bytes(ASCAII Code), the test result is 0.5. 20 20 20 20 6D 67 2F 4C Unit, 8 bytes(ASCAII Code) , the unit is mg/L 00 00 00 00 Lower limits of normal 4 bytes (floating number) The lower limits of normal is 0. 00 00 20 41 Upper limits of normal 4bytes ( floating number) The upper limits of normal is 10. 20 31 30 32 Sample number, 4 bytes (ASCAII Code) , The sample No. is 102. 59 : Sum mode Validation 0D 0A : Instruction end symbol 4, If test item is CRP, the test results will be showing CRP and hsCRP separately. The test results higher than 5, CRP: Actual test result hsCRP: >5.0mg/L CRP <5.0mg/L The test result lower than 5, CRP<5.0 mg/L hsCRP : Actual test result Reference value: CRP: <10mg/L hsCRP<3mg/L
