3. Configuring the Heska Element COAG
™
Analyzer
Note that the information is transmitted in the language chosen on the Heska Element
COAG
™
Analyzer.
Contact Heska Corporation for an updated list of applied LIS tags, enabling your LIS
operator to set a viable connection up to your Heska Element COAG
™
Analyzer. With
regard to any LIS system, Heska Corporation does not deliver any specification files,
drivers or middleware applications.

Industrial standard NCCLS LIS protocols, NCCLS LIS01-A2, Vol. 28, No. 13
and NCCLS LIS02-A2, Vol. 24, No. 33, have been implemented.
Guidelines
To configure your Heska Element COAG
™
Analyzer with a LIS, information
must be provided by the user.
Edit each field in the Network Screen (see
Figure 3.15
) by touching the purple arrow
button to the right of the corresponding entry box.
Server The following fields apply to the identification of your LIS server:
Data Export
Enables/disables data export to a LIS on the Analyzer. With data export
activated the following fields become editable.
Note that when enabling data export from the Heska Element COAG
™
Analyzer it
will still function as a stand-alone instrument saving all measurements on disk, but
will additionally transfer measurement results to your LIS.
Results measured when the connection to the LIS is offline are queued and
transmitted when a connection has been established. This queue does not survive
a power cycle (switching the instrument off/on).
With data export enabled a
Resend
button appears on the history pages for the
test results of the Heska Element COAG
™
Analyzer. This enables the operator to
retransmit all or individually selected measurements stored on the Heska Element
COAG
™
Analyzer. Touching
Resend
when the connection to the server is offline
will queue the measurement results for retransmission upon a reconnection. This
queue does not survive a power cycle (switching the instrument off/on).
With data export enabled, the LIS can query the Heska Element COAG
™
Analyzer
to resend individual or all results. If communication is lost in the process, the
Heska Element COAG
™
Analyzer will queue the intended measurements for
retransmission upon reconnection. This queue does not survive a power cycle
(switching the instrument off/on).
On the Home Screen of the Heska Element COAG
™
Analyzer, LIS connection
problems are indicated, notifying the user to check connectivity.
