2.3 Slides and Magazines
2.3.1 Barcodes
Important
Only slides labeled with barcodes can be processed. Use only barcode formats
appropriate for the system (see Appendix A — System Specification
).
Magazine ID
The barcode on the magazine is the magazine ID. When the system has no LIS
connection, the magazine ID determines the analysis type.
• Orange magazines with barcodes consisting of prefix ‘PB’ followed by digits -
a peripheral blood analysis will be performed. The barcode needs to consist of
at least 3 digits.
• Blue magazines with barcodes consisting of the prefix ‘BFS’ followed by digits
- a body fluid analysis will be performed.
Note! LIS order will override the magazine barcode in determining analysis type.
