2 MEK-9100 HL7 Data Communication Protocol
Introduction
This document describes the HL7 based communication protocol of the
following product.
• MEK-9100 automated hematology analyzer: V01-01 or later
Applicable Standards
The communication specifications of the analyzer are based on the applicable
standards of each layer in the network layer framework “OSI (Open Systems
Interconnection)” which is defined in ISO 7498. The following table shows the
applicable standards.
Applicable Standards of the Communication Specifications of the Analyzer
OSI Reference Model
Applicable Standard
Layer Layer Name
7 Application layer HL7
5 Session layer MLLP
4 Transport layer TCP
3 Network layer IP
2 Data link layer Ethernet (IEEE 802.3)
1 Physical layer Ethernet (IEEE 802.3)
MEK-9100 HL7 Data Communication Protocol3
TCP/IP Communication Method
Communication uses TCP/IP sockets.
For the communication ports, each transaction defined in the application layer
is alloted to one port. For example, in the LAW profile, LAB 27, 28 and 29
transactions are assigned one port each (total 3 ports).
The send port of the analyzer (LAB 27 or LAB 29 in case of the
LAW profile) can be set to the same port.
LAW Profile Example
Analyzer
Port 50002
Analyzer Manager
Port 50001
Port 50003
LAB-27 transaction
LAB-28 transaction
LAB-29 transaction
Create a socket on the server and wait for a connection from the client. At the
transaction start, a socket is established at the client side, and connection is made
to the server.
If connection is established, the client sends a message to the server then it is
necessary to wait for a response message from the server. When a response
message is received, the socket is closed.
Socket Communication Example
Socket (Create socket)
Connect (Connect to socket)
Send (Send data)
Recv (Receive data)
Close (Close socket)
Client
Listen (Prepare socket)
Socket (Create socket)
Accept (Standby for socket

the following conditions.
[ ]: Square brackets show parts that may be abbreviated.
{ }: Curly brackets show parts that may repeat.
6 MEK-9100 HL7 Data Communication Protocol
Segments
Following table shows details of items which are used in the tables.
Segment Description
SEGMENT Shows the segment name.
SEQ
Shows the position of data in the segment. This is expressed in 3 layers. The first layer is the
field position, the second layer is the component position and the third layer is the subcomponent
position.
LEN Shows the maximum number of uppercase characters in the field.
DT Shows the data type of the field. For details about data type, refer to HL7 v2.5.1 Chapter 2.A.
OPT
Shows the handling method for field data.
The following conditions are observed.
M: It is necessary to set the data (including NULL data) at the sending side.
For NULL data, |””| double quotes can be used. (|| is not acceptable.) It is not always 		
necessary for the receiving side to use the data. But when the data does not exist (in the 		
case of ||), set the MSA-1 field of the response message to AE and it becomes possible to 		
notify errors on the sending side.
R: It is necessary to set the data (not including NULL data) at the sending side.
But to show NULL data, |””| double quotes cannot be used.
It is not always necessary for the receiving side to use the data. But when the data does 		
not exist (|| or |””|), set the MSA-1 field of the response message to AE and it becomes 		
possible to notify errors on the sending side.
RE: It is necessary to set this if the data may be used at the sending side. If it will not be used, it
is not necessary to set this.
It is not always necessary for the receiving side to use the data. But even when the data 		
does not exist, it is necessary to allow it.
O: Common use of data with the receiving side is optional.
X: Common use of data with the receiving side is not possible.
C (a/b): Follows the handling method of (a) if positive or (b) if negative. The conditions are 		
included in the protocol specifications. (a) or (b) will be M/R/RE/X.
Element name Shows the field name.
Protocol Specifications Field details are included in the protocol specifications.

LAB-27 Transaction Specifications
LAB-27 transaction is a communication transaction to query the orders.
A specific query about the conditions of the QBP message is sent from the analyzer
to the Analyzer Manager (sample system). (The Analyzer Manager is hereafter
referred to as “AM”.)
After querying, it is necessary for the AM to return a response as to whether the
query to the analyzer in regard to the RSP message was accepted.

LAB-29 Transaction Specifications
A LAB-29 transaction is a communications transaction where the analyzer sends
measurement results to the Analysis Manager (sample system). (The Analyzer
Manager is hereafter referred to as “AM”.)
Sends measurement results by OUL message from the analyzer to the AM.
For the AM, it is necessary to send a response to the analyzer by an ACK
message as to whether or not the measurement results were accepted.
If measurement results are based on a LAB-28 received order, the content of
each segment in the OUL message is nearly the same as the segments in the
LAB-28 OUL message except for some parts.
For fields that have discrepancies, refer to the protocol specifications for each
field.

  • 4. 2 MEK-9100 HL7 Data Communication Protocol Introduction This document describes the HL7 based communication protocol of the following product. • MEK-9100 automated hematology analyzer: V01-01 or later Applicable Standards The communication specifications of the analyzer are based on the applicable standards of each layer in the network layer framework “OSI (Open Systems Interconnection)” which is defined in ISO 7498. The following table shows the applicable standards. Applicable Standards of the Communication Specifications of the Analyzer OSI Reference Model Applicable Standard Layer Layer Name 7 Application layer HL7 5 Session layer MLLP 4 Transport layer TCP 3 Network layer IP 2 Data link layer Ethernet (IEEE 802.3) 1 Physical layer Ethernet (IEEE 802.3)
  • 5. MEK-9100 HL7 Data Communication Protocol3 TCP/IP Communication Method Communication uses TCP/IP sockets. For the communication ports, each transaction defined in the application layer is alloted to one port. For example, in the LAW profile, LAB 27, 28 and 29 transactions are assigned one port each (total 3 ports). The send port of the analyzer (LAB 27 or LAB 29 in case of the LAW profile) can be set to the same port. LAW Profile Example Analyzer Port 50002 Analyzer Manager Port 50001 Port 50003 LAB-27 transaction LAB-28 transaction LAB-29 transaction Create a socket on the server and wait for a connection from the client. At the transaction start, a socket is established at the client side, and connection is made to the server. If connection is established, the client sends a message to the server then it is necessary to wait for a response message from the server. When a response message is received, the socket is closed. Socket Communication Example Socket (Create socket) Connect (Connect to socket) Send (Send data) Recv (Receive data) Close (Close socket) Client Listen (Prepare socket) Socket (Create socket) Accept (Standby for socket connection) Bind (Bind socket) Recv (Receive data) Send (Send data) Close (Close socket) Server
  • 6. 4 MEK-9100 HL7 Data Communication Protocol Session Layer Specifications In the session layer, in accordance with the HL7 MLLP (Minimal Lower Layer Protocol), the HL7 message which is defined in the application layer in the following format is enclosed by a start block (SB) and an end block (EBCR). The start block (SB) can be appended or not appended to the HL7 message by a setting on the System window. Format: SBdataEBCR Symbol Hexadecimal Code Description SB 0x0B Start bit (1 byte) Note that this is not an ASCII STX (0x02) or SOH (0x01). data ― Variable length data. This data is shown in the HL7 message data in the application layer. EB 0x1C Stop bit (1 byte) Note that this is not an ASCII ETX (0x03) or EOT (0x04). CR 0x0D Carriage return (1 byte)

SEQ Shows the position of data in the segment. This is expressed in 3 layers. The first layer is the field position, the second layer is the component position and the third layer is the subcomponent position. LEN Shows the maximum number of uppercase characters in the field. DT Shows the data type of the field. For details about data type, refer to HL7 v2.5.1 Chapter 2.A. OPT Shows the handling method for field data. The following conditions are observed. M: It is necessary to set the data (including NULL data) at the sending side. For NULL data, |””| double quotes can be used. (|| is not acceptable.) It is not always necessary for the receiving side to use the data. But when the data does not exist (in the case of ||), set the MSA-1 field of the response message to AE and it becomes possible to notify errors on the sending side. R: It is necessary to set the data (not including NULL data) at the sending side. But to show NULL data, |””| double quotes cannot be used. It is not always necessary for the receiving side to use the data. But when the data does not exist (|| or |””|), set the MSA-1 field of the response message to AE and it becomes possible to notify errors on the sending side. RE: It is necessary to set this if the data may be used at the sending side. If it will not be used, it is not necessary to set this. It is not always necessary for the receiving side to use the data. But even when the data does not exist, it is necessary to allow it. O: Common use of data with the receiving side is optional. X: Common use of data with the receiving side is not possible. C (a/b): Follows the handling method of (a) if positive or (b) if negative. The conditions are included in the protocol specifications. (a) or (b) will be M/R/RE/X. Element name Shows the field name. Protocol Specifications Field details are included in the protocol specifications.

  • 23. MEK-9100 HL7 Data Communication Protocol21 LAB-29 Transaction Specifications A LAB-29 transaction is a communications transaction where the analyzer sends measurement results to the Analysis Manager (sample system). (The Analyzer Manager is hereafter referred to as “AM”.) Sends measurement results by OUL message from the analyzer to the AM. For the AM, it is necessary to send a response to the analyzer by an ACK message as to whether or not the measurement results were accepted. If measurement results are based on a LAB-28 received order, the content of each segment in the OUL message is nearly the same as the segments in the LAB-28 OUL message except for some parts. For fields that have discrepancies, refer to the protocol specifications for each field.
