TABLE 23 Connectivity Map - HL7 MSH Segment (Continued)
Name Description
Receiving Facility A user-dened value that further identies the receiving application among
multiple identical instances of the application running on behalf of dierent
organizations. The default value is Sun HL7 adapter.
This is the sixth eld in the HL7 MSH segment (MSH-06).
Security The implemented application level security features.
This is the eighth eld in the HL7 MSH segment (MSH-08).
Processing ID The sub-component processing ID of the MSH-11 eld. MSH-11 is used to
indicate whether a message is processed as dened in the HL7 Application
processing rules.
Specify one of the following options:
■
D - The message is part of a debugging system.
■
P - The message is part of a production system.
■
T - The message is part of a training system.
In some cases there may be an additional value, the processing mode,
following the initial value. This value can be A (archive), R (restore from
archive), or I (initial load).
Version ID The HL7 version as displayed in HL7 Table 0104 - Version ID. This value is
matched by the receiving system to its own version to ensure that messages are
interpreted correctly. The default value is 2.5 .
This is the 12th eld in the HL7 MSH segment (MSH-12).
Country Code A code that indicates the country of origin for the message (see HL7 Table 0399).
Use the 3-character (alphabetic) form of ISO 3166. This value is used to specify
default elements in a message, such as currency. The default value is USA.
This is the 17th eld in the HL7 MSH segment (MSH-17).
Character Set The character set(s) used by the messages (see HL7 Table 0211). If the eld is left
blank, the character set is assumed to be the 7-bit ASCII set. The default value is
8859/1 (printable 7-bit ASCII character set).
This is the 18th eld in the HL7 MSH segment (MSH-18).
Principal Language of
Message
The 2-character ISO 639 alphabetic code that species the principal language of
the message.
This is the 19th eld in the HL7 MSH segment (MSH-19).
Alternate Character Set
Handling Scheme
The value for the alternate character set handling scheme to be used when any
alternative character sets are used and a special handling scheme is necessary (see
HL7 Table 0356). Possible values are ISO 2022-1994, 2.3,or<null> (blank).
Leaving the eld blank indicates that no character set switching will occur.
This is the 20th eld in the HL7 MSH segment (MSH-20).
