Configure Barcodes
The ThinPrep 5000 processor compares the vial ID with a slide ID. The Configure Barcodes option
establishes the ways that the processor will compare the ID information.
The Configure Barcodes settings are a series of questions about how sample vials are labeled when
the vials are prepared for processing and a series of questions about how a slides are labeled in your
laboratory.
Note:
Some barcode configuration options described in this operator’s manual may not appear on
the screen display for an instrument. The screen display only shows the options available for
that particular instrument. For example, ThinPrep 5000 processors with a particular scanner
installed cannot read 2-D barcodes on vial labels, and a particular scanner reads a maximum
of five types of 1-D barcodes in vial labels.
The Configure Barcodes settings require that a portion of the information in a vial ID is also used on
a slide label. The vial ID can be the same ID that is used on a slide. The slide ID must be a minimum
of 5 characters and a maximum of 64 characters, but the format used for the slide ID adds its own
requirements. For example, in the OCR: Imager format, the slide ID must be 14 characters, or for a 1-
D Code 128 barcode to be legible on the slide, the slide ID can be a maximum of 14 numbers or
8 alpha characters. Generally, the 2-D barcode formats can use more characters in the slide ID than
the 1-D barcode or OCR formats.
