I have an accounting system that is specially designed for small diagnostic centres.
One of my clients is expanding in other medical/laboratory fields and he is purchasing the following equipment from Roche:
sysmex XS-1000i
cobas interga 400
cobas e411
cobas u411
sysmex XS-1000i
So he asked if I could connect my accounting system - with the above analyzers - so he wouldn't have to use another software (LIMS?) and enter the data twice.
Roche sent me a couple of emulators, but before going on an studying the HL7 standard and (probably) reinventing the wheel, does anybody have in mind any product or code that I could use with my WinDEV17 apps?
Ideas welcomed |

| Hey Steven, I've been writing laboratory instrument interfaces most of my life. Are you wanting to interface via serial port or are you going to use a lantronix device. These instruments you have listed don't natively communicate via hl7. Each one has it's own proprietary protocol. Do you have the specs on each one? |

Hi Ken,
You are right - they have there own protocols called ASTM and COBAS.
I was playing around with an emulation application Roche sent me - it is called Host Interface Test Tools - and since it also had a HL7 mode, I thought that the analyzers also worked with HL7.
Now for the questions.
1) I was thinking of communicating via the Serial port.
Ofcourse since I am no expert here, I would appreciate any advise ..
2) Yes I have the specs for all the analyzers.
I am attaching one of them.
I can send you all the files Roche sent me, since they NEVER said I can't redistribute them

Hi Ken,
I replied on the mysnip forum, but it seems to take a lot of time to "replicate/tranfer" to this forum ...

I would use a lantronix device which converts the serial to TCP/IP. I find TCP/IP easier to recover from communication problems, plus you don't have to run serial cables all over the lab.
I have written code for those analyzers in VB 2008 that I still have. Maybe that will help you in converting it to Windev code. I'm in the process of actually writing a laboratory information system and will be also writing in bi-directional capability to instruments, point of care device and reference labs...

By the way, I see the attachment in the email but can't click on it to download. You can send it to klossman@gmail.com if you want....
Thanks |

Hi
I need a bidirectional communication from my software HL7 orders to Roche Cobas 601 analyzer
Do you do that?
Thanks |
