Creating Bar Codes and Magnetic
Cards
The following sections provide the information you need to configure bar codes and
magnetic patient ID cards.
The bar code reader can read Code 39, 39EX, 128, PDF-417 (2-D), Interleaved Code 2
of 5, and Data Matrix bar codes.
The card reader can read magnetic cards that adhere to ISO 7810 and 7811.
NOTE:
All data resides in fixed-width fields. The bar code or card generator must be
programmed to add “trailing spaces” after fields shorter than the fixed length of
the fields being used by your system.
Manual Reader Configuration
The following table identifies the available fields for configuring your magnetic
card reader and bar code reader. Refer to
“Setting Up a Card Reader” on page 149
and “Setting Up a Bar Code Reader” on page 151 for instructions on accessing the
configuration window.
When instructed to enter a field's Offset and Length , keep in mind the following
information:
• For Offset , enter the field's beginning position.
For the first field in the bar code or magnetic card, the offset will be 0. For the
subsequent fields, the offset is typically the sum of the previous field's offset and
length. However, this is not always the case; there may be cases where fields may
have gaps between them.
• For Length , enter the total number of bytes for this field.
Where appropriate, maximum or required lengths are noted, along with any other
recommendations or restrictions.
