[MEDITECH-L] Advia 2120

[David McAllister]

I am trying to interface a Siemens Advia 2120 hematology analyzer to Meditech magic 5.61.  As with all of our other analyzer interfaces that have a serial port, I am using a lantronix uds1100 box.  I can go into OPS and do a remote printer inquiry and it shows as Ready so I know my physical connection between Meditech and the lantronix is good.  However, on the Advia it still shows a red dot for the LIS (it should be green).  I am using a standard null modem cable (the one that came in the box with the lantronix) between the 9-pin serial port on the analyzers PC and the 25 pin port on the lantronix box.

 

I have confirmed that the baud rate, parity, stop bits, and data bits programmed into the lantronix box matches the same settings on the analyzers PC.  I have tried all baud rates between 1200 and 9600 but still a red LIS dot on the PC.

 

Any ideas from anyone who has an Advia 2120 interfaced to Meditech on what to check next?  I’m stumped.  Thanks!

Do you have a RJ-45 connector attached to the analyzer, the specifications are on meditech.
