Plug in via RS-232 or point it at LISBridge over TCP/IP. Auto-detection identifies the instrument and loads the correct parser — no manual selection.
LISBridge reads the ASTM E1394 stream in real time. Every result message is decoded — field by field — into structured data.
Each result is checked for completeness. Duplicates caught. Malformed messages flagged. Only clean data moves forward.
Validated results reach your HIS automatically — as HL7 or direct format. Stored locally too. No manual entry required.
All test codes reported by the Pentra 400 are extracted — ALT, AST, GGT, ALP, creatinine, urea, glucose, total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides, total protein, albumin, calcium, phosphorus, and others configured on the analyser.
Yes. LISBridge handles multiple simultaneous instrument connections. Both the haematology XLR and chemistry Pentra 400 can connect and stream results through the same installation.
The Pentra 400 uses 9600 baud over RS-232. LISBridge auto-detects the baud rate from the instrument profile.
LISBridge passes through any reference range values included in the ASTM R| record from the Pentra 400 to the HIS as transmitted.
LISBridge supports 35 instruments. See also:
