If the Instrument is configured for I2of5 with Check Digit ON, the Instrument will:
a. read an I2of5 label with check digit.
If the check digit on the label matches the check digit calculated by the
Instrument, the "read" is good and the Work List is searched for a
matching bar code number in the Specimen ID field. If a matching entry
is found in the Work List, the entry details are displayed in the
Demographics section of the RUN screen. When the result is available, it
is saved in the Data Log and the entry is deleted from the Work List. If
no matching entry is found, the specimen is identified in the Data Log by
the tube bar code number in the Specimen ID field.
If the check digits do not match, the "read" is not good and the Work List
is not searched. For SL models, the Rack and Tube # is assigned to the
Specimen ID field for that specimen in the Data Log. For CS models,
only the Sequence # is used to identify that specimen in the Data Log.
b. ignore all other bar code symbologies.
The Work List is not searched. For SL models, the specimen is identified
in the Data Log by the Rack and Tube number assigned to the Specimen
ID field by the Instrument. For CS models, the specimen is identified in
the Data Log by the Sequence number only and the Specimen ID field is
left blank.
If the Instrument is configured for I2of5 with Check Digit OFF, the Instrument
will:
a. read all four bar code symbologies' labels with a check digit.
The bar code reader reads the entire number including the check digit and
the Work List is searched. Because the bar code label has one extra digit
(check digit), no matching entry will be found in the Work List (which
should not contain the check digit). The specimen is identified in the Data
Log by the tube bar code number in the Specimen ID field.
b. read all four bar code symbologies' labels without a check digit.
The "read" is assumed to be good (without a check digit the bar code
number cannot be verified) and the Work List is searched for a matching
bar code number in the Specimen ID field. If a matching entry is found
in the Work List, the entry details are displayed in the Demographics
section of the RUN screen. When the result is available, it is saved in the
Data Log and the entry is deleted from the Work List. If no matching
entry is found, the specimen is identified in the Data Log by the tube bar
code number in the Specimen ID field.
