2) After the installation has finished, you can check the box next to Launch ConneXport to open it right away. Click Finish to quit the installer.


How to connect

Depending on the type of instrument, there are different possibilites on how to connect it to the PC:

CUBE/CUBE-S interface

A CUBE / CUBE-S instrument can be connected over the RS232 male (required cable order number: SZ0408) or (cable order number: SZ0407) USB Type Bconnector.

smart/solo interface

When using a smart or solo instrument, the RS232 female (on the right, cable order number SZ0406) or USB Type B (cable order number SZ0407) connector can be used.

Plug the other end of the cable into a chosen port of the PC and start EUROLyser ConneXport.

On the first startup you will be asked to select the instrument you are using. Choose your instrument and click Next >>. (This, and some of the following figures will show the procedure for a CUBE / CUBE-S instrument as an example. If a different device is connected some screens will appear differently, but the overall procedure stays the same!)

If your device is not yet connected to the PC, refer to the first paragraph on „How to connect“ and connect your instrument to the PC before clicking Next >>.


Afterwards you will be prompted to select the port to which your instrument is connected. The baudrate is fixed at 9600. If it was changed to 115200 on your smart or solo instrument, you need to change it back to 9600 (see Setting the baudrate on a smart / solo instrument on page 13). A CUBE / CUBE-S instrument‘s baudrate is always set to 9600. Click Save to save your settings. The past 3 screens will only show up once before the settings have been saved.


The EUROLyser ConneXport menu

After saving the settings, the application will open up its main window. The following section will explain the four main menu points:

• File: Here you can switch between the All Results and Results from Today windows or close the whole application (also possible with X on the top right corner).

• Export: Allows you to export all the currently shown results and locally save it as a CSV or Excel

file on your computer. • Settings: In the settings menu you can change the PC Port, enable Auto Run, configure how

results will be exported to CSV or Excel or enable/disable and configure HL7 export.

Auto Run: When Auto Run is enabled, ConneXport will launch automatically on each Windows startup and will continue to run in the background, even when closed with X. It can then be reaccessed through the tray bar. Clicking Exit over the File menu will close the application, even when Auto Run is enabled! Enable/Disable Auto Run and save your settings by clicking Save.


Export Configuration: The Result Format setting changes how the exported results will be displayed in the CSV or Excel file. Three different settings are available. Simply choose your desired format and a small preview will appear next to the selection. Check or uncheck the Export Fields boxes to set which parameters should be included in the exported CSV or Excel file. You can also change the Number Format depending on whether the decimal mark should be displayed as a comma or a full stop.

The CSV Export settings determine whether a semicolon or a vertical bar/pipe is used as a Delimiter for CSV. Again, save your settings by clicking Save.

HL7 Configuration: HL7 is disabled by default. Click on Enabled to enable it. Under Recipient you can choose the names of the receiving facility and the receiving application. The patient data can be sent as PID (patient ID) or PV1 (visit number), depending on what kind of patient data needs to be sent. Under Remote System the Port Number and Host of the recipient needs to be set in order for the data to be properly transmitted. Lastly, toggle Automatic Transmission ON to automatically send results after each transfer from the instrument. Under Send Result Type you can select whether All Results (QP), or either only Controls (Q) or only Patient (P) results will be sent. Click Save to save the configuration or Cancel to exit without saving.

• About: Shows the version number, copyright, address, telephone and fax number of the

manufacturer.

All results formerly displayed in bold characters will revert to standard characters after the Results Received: New (X) screen was cleared.

On the Results (X/X) screen you have the possibility to filter your measurement results according to Date and Result Type (Sample or Control):

Transmitting results with the HL7 Sender

If HL7 is enabled, a window will appear below the measurement result list. In case automatic transmission was enabled, new measurement results will automatically be transferred to the chosen host. Otherwise you need to manually select the desired results to transfer them.

Select one, several or all results (will be highlighted in blue colour) and click the button to start the transfer. To stop an active transfer click on or hit the button to clear the HL7 Sender list.

Note: For a result to be transferred, it needs to have the serial number of the instrument, on which it was measured, included in the data. In case there’s no serial number included, the result needs to be resynced with the serial number included (see page 12 for an instruction).


Successfully transferred results will be marked with an icon. The icon will always be shown in the result list, even when the result is deleted from the HL7 Sender window. If the transfer was unsuccessful it will be marked with an icon and also appear in the Unsuccessfully Sent window next to the HL7 Sender window. Check the serial number and/or host settings and try transferring it again from the Unsuccessfully Sent window. Results from that window cannot be deleted and will dissappear by themselves after a successful transfer. To send all the previously failed measurements at once, click on Send All.
