Add barcode content to a result It is possible to read and display the complete content of
a barcode (not only the extracted ID) and add it as a com-
ment to the test result, to be further processed by the
DMS. This option can only be configured via a DMS. The
following options can be set:
■ Barcode content will not be added to the result
■ Barcode content will be added to the result
■ Barcode content will be displayed for confirmation
after scanning and then added to the result
If the meter is set to the last option (enabled with confir-
mation), you can choose to display the complete barcode
content in the confirmation screen as follows:
■ The barcode is displayed as a continuous string of
characters without any formatting. The separator
characters (“~%$+?”) are shown. See example in
top screen in the illustration on the left.
■ The barcode is divided into separate lines for easier
reading. The separator characters (“~%$+?”) are
replaced by line breaks. See example in the bottom
screen in the illustration on the left.
The replacement of separator characters by line breaks
is only applied temporarily for display in the Barcode
Confirmation screen. The barcode information stored
with the test result contains the original separator
characters.
During a patient test, the Barcode Confirmation screen
appears before the Patient Confirmation screen, if both
are enabled.
