COMMUNICATIONS
QA Users can establish the bi-directional IRMA TruPoint communications
methods for the transfer of IRMA TruPoint test results to the Integrated Data
Management System (idms) or a host system (e.g., LIS, HIS), and the transfer
of device updates from DeviceSet to IRMA TruPoint analyzers.
Communications methods
• Serial Port: An RS232 serial port is located on the backside of the IRMA
TruPoint analyzer, below the printer. A double-ended RJ45 crossover
cable and cable adapter are available from your local service provider. The
cable adapter allows the cable to be connected to a computer com port.
Note: External serial servers connect to the IRMA TruPoint serial port.
• Internal Modem: The internal modem default setting is “disabled”. The
modem must be enabled prior to establishing modem results transfer
settings. Enable the internal modem as follows:
1. Turn the IRMA TruPoint analyzer “off”.
2. Touch the right side of the touchscreen while simultaneously holding
down the lower left corner of the touchscreen to access the Enter Feature
Code screen.
3. Enter the modem feature code 663366 and
press next .
4. Turn the internal modem “on” and press done .
Note:
• Not all IRMA TruPoint analyzers are equipped
with an internal modem. Contact your service
provider if you have questions about your
system.
• External Modem: An external modem may be used with the IRMA
TruPoint analyzer.
• Internal LAN 10/100 device: A LAN 10/100 port is located on the backside
of IRMA TruPoint analyzers equipped with an internal LAN 10/100
device. A CAT 5e patch cable is used to connect the IRMA TruPoint to
the receiving system.
