Patient list validation
Depending on DMS settings, you have the following options for patient list validation when work-
ing with Patient lists:
A Patient ID does not have to be on the list to be used (only valid for validation mode
“off”).
The meter displays a warning if the Patient ID entered is not on the list.
The meter displays an error message if the ID was not found on the list of valid Patient IDs.
To proceed with the test, you must scan ( if ID set to “hidden”) or select ( if ID set to Required) a
valid Patient ID.
Barcode scanner
Using a DMS, the barcode scanner may be configured to accept only selected barcode symbol-
ogies (e.g., EAN-13 Barcodes are not allowed). Furthermore it is possible to define a barcode
mask for Patient ID and Operator ID. With masks being defined, the meter checks a barcode after
scanning and rejects it, if it does not match the mask.
