Connect Your Mindray BC-2800 to Any HIS or LIMS

The Mindray BC-2800 is a 3-part differential haematology analyser found in thousands of small and mid-size labs, communicating over a proprietary serial protocol.

The BC-2800 doesn't speak standard ASTM or HL7 — it uses Mindray's proprietary serial format, which is why most middleware can't read it. LISBridge includes a dedicated BC-2800 parser that decodes the proprietary stream and forwards structured CBC results to your HIS automatically.

How LISBridge Connects the Mindray BC-2800

01

Connect your instrument

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.

02

Parse the data

LISBridge reads the Proprietary serial stream in real time. Every result message is decoded — field by field — into structured data.

03

Validate results

Each result is checked for completeness. Duplicates caught. Malformed messages flagged. Only clean data moves forward.

04

HIS receives clean data

Validated results reach your HIS automatically — as HL7 or direct format. Stored locally too. No manual entry required.

Mindray BC-2800 — Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Mindray BC-2800 use ASTM or HL7?

Neither — the BC-2800 transmits results in a proprietary Mindray serial format. LISBridge ships a dedicated BC-2800 parser that decodes this format natively, so no protocol converter box is needed.

What parameters does LISBridge extract from the BC-2800?

The full 3-part differential CBC panel — WBC, LYM, MID, GRA, RBC, HGB, HCT, MCV, MCH, MCHC, RDW, PLT, MPV — as reported by the instrument.

Can I connect a BC-2800 with a USB-to-serial adapter?

Yes. Standard FTDI and Prolific USB-to-RS-232 adapters work. LISBridge auto-detects the virtual COM port.

My middleware vendor said the BC-2800 can't be interfaced. Is that true?

It can't be interfaced with generic ASTM/HL7 middleware — but LISBridge decodes the BC-2800's proprietary protocol directly. Plug in the serial cable and results flow to your HIS automatically.

LISBridge supports 35 instruments. See also:
