The table below shows the example of analysis result data of one sample.
* Algorithm of SUM2
Initialized to zero by receiving STX, the check character (2 bytes) is first calculated by addition of characters from
the character next to STX to ETX.
The modulo 256 of the addition result is then converted to hexadecimal digits in ASCII code, and the high digit (CSH)
and the low digit (CSL) are output in this order.
In TRANSPARENT 1 mode, the following settings ("TIME OUT I" and "TIME OUT O") are available on the UC-
3500 setting screen.

<ACK>
<EOT>
<Reception of NAK>
• If the analyzer receives <NAK> after sending a frame, it resends the frame after timeout.
• If the analyzer does not receive <ACK> after sending the same frame for the number of retry times (see Table
6-2 Transfer methods and parameters), it generates an error after sending <EOT>.

When a communication error occurs during sending of analysis order request, the analyzer follows the
settings in [ORDER ERROR] of [MEAS. SETTINGS].
• [SKIP]: No analysis is performed.
• [MEASURE]: Analysis is performed using the strip specified on the analyzer.
When a communication error occurs during outputting of analysis result data, the analyzer stops
outputting the data.
<No response>
• If the analyzer receives no response for the time set in [TIME OUT A] (see Table 6-2 Transfer methods and
parameters) after sending a frame, it generates an error after sending <EOT>. (*)
Analyzer Host
Frame
[TIME OUT A]
<EOT>
If no response continues, a

* Note: This error is issued to detect disconnection of lines (including the unplugging of cables).
When a communication error occurs during sending of analysis order request, the analyzer follows the settings in
[ORDER ERROR] of [MEAS. SETTINGS].
[MEAS. SETTINGS] – [ORDER ERROR]
• [SKIP]: No analysis is performed.
• [MEASURE]: Analysis is performed using the strip specified on the analyzer.
When a communication error occurs during outputting of analysis result data, the analyzer stops outputting the
data.
ii) Reception of frames (from host to analyzer)
<Sending of ACK>
• When the analyzer receives a frame, it checks whether or not the frame is received properly. If the analyzer
judges that the reception is proper, the analyzer sends <ACK> to the host when the reception of the next frame is
ready.
Analyzer Host
Frame
The frame is received
correctly. <ACK>
<Sending of NAK>
• When the analyzer receives a frame, it checks whether or not the frame is received properly. If the analyzer judges
that the reception is abnormal, the analyzer sends <NAK> to the host when it is ready to receive the frame to be
resent.

TIME OUT B
If no response continues, a
communication error occurs.
* Note: This communication error occurs in order to avoid an endless software loop.
When a communication error occurs during sending of analysis order request, the analyzer follows the settings
in [ORDER ERROR] of [MEAS. SETTINGS].
• [SKIP]: No analysis is performed.
• [MEASURE]: Analysis is performed using the strip specified on the analyzer.
When a communication error occurs during outputting of analysis result data, the analyzer stops outputting the
data.
Analyzer Host
* Note: This communication error occurs in order to avoid an endless software loop.
When a communication error occurs during sending of analysis order request, the analyzer follows
the settings in [ORDER ERROR] of [MEAS. SETTINGS].
• [SKIP]: No analysis is performed.
• [MEASURE]: Analysis is performed using the strip specified on the analyzer.
When a communication error occurs during outputting of analysis result data, the analyzer stops
outputting the data.
The analyzer judges that the frame received is correct when the following conditions are satisfied:
There is no error in characters (parity error, framing error, etc.)
The checksum included in the frame and the one calculated match.
<Reception of EOT>
When the analyzer receives <EOT>, it judges that the reception of all frames is completed.
Analyzer Host
Frame
<ACK>
<EOT>
Reception completed
CAUTION:
The sent data is always assumed to be received properly by the host and will not be resent.
1. If the analyzer receives EOT instead of ACK (or NAK), it aborts the current communication process.
2. If the analyzer receives an incorrect character other than ACK, NAK, and EOT, it sends EOT and aborts the
communication.
The host computer performs the same processes as those in items 1 and 2 above.
3. If the analyzer receives NAK or timeout of no response from the host computer, it resends the data as many
times as specified in [RETRY] (See Table 6-2 Transfer methods and parameters).
If the status still does not recover, the analyzer sends EOT and aborts the communication process for one
sample.
In the case of sending analysis result data, however, the analyzer retries sending the data until the power is
turned off.
This means that all analysis result data after that which is not received by the host will be sent to the host at
the point of error recovery, unless the instrument power is turned off.
As for order request data and order results, the analyzer stops sending the sample data when the
communication process is aborted.
1. The analyzer sends order request data when the barcode on the sample tube is read properly.
2. The analyzer does not request the order when the barcode on the sample tube is not read properly, and
performs analysis by using the strip specified on the [BOTTLE EXCHANGE] screen.
3. The analyzer suspends the sending of analysis result data and order request data after sending order request
data until the following condition is met:
• Order data is received properly from the host and order result data is sent from the analyzer
• [TIME OUT O] is over.
* When the analyzer detects [TIMEOUT O], it assumes that no order data is returned from the host,
and proceeds to the next process (i.e. sending order request data or analysis result data).
4. If any abend occurs during sending of order request data in HANDSHAKE mode, the analyzer discards the
order request currently being sent.
In this case, it is not required that the host send order data to the analyzer, and neither does the analyzer send
order result data to the host.
④ Cautions for order data (Host→Analyzer)
1. The host computer sends order data to the analyzer within the designated [TIMEOUT O] when the host
receives order request data properly.
2. If any abend occurs during sending of order data in HANDSHAKE mode, the host computer discards the
order data without resending it.
In this case, it is not required that the host receive order result data.
1. The analyzer sends order result data to the host when it receives order data properly.
2. The analyzer does not send order result data when it does not receive order data within [TIMEOUT O] after
sending order request data to the host.
In this case, the analyzer performs analysis according to [ORDER ERROR] of [MEAS. SETTINGS].
• [SKIP]: No analysis is performed.
• [MEASURE]: Analysis is performed using the strip specified on the analyzer.
3. If any abend occurs during sending of order result data in HANDSHAKE mode, the analyzer stops sending
the current order result data and discards the received order.
In this case, the analyzer performs analysis according to [ORDER ERROR] of [MEAS. SETTINGS].
• [SKIP]: No analysis is performed.
• [MEASURE]: Analysis is performed using the strip specified on the analyzer.
1. The analyzer does not send analysis result data when [ORDER ERROR] is set to [SKIP], since no analysis
is performed when the order data is abnormal.
2. If any abend occurs during sending of analysis result data in HANDSHAKE mode, the analyzer discards the
data currently being sent.
The analyzer then proceeds to the next process if the error has occurred during real-time sending, or discards
the sending of all sample data specified after the error occurs and completes the process if the error has
occurred during batch sending.
⑦ State transition table
The host performs the process according to the following state transition table.
When the host computer returns order data to the analyzer, it sends the record below.
Order data record
* For details, see "6.1.2.5 Order data record (Host→Analyzer)".
When the analyzer returns order result data to the host, it sends the record below.
Order result data record
* For details, see "6.1.2.6 Order result data record (Analyzer→Host)".
Sample barcode:
• When not using barcode, space (20H) padding of 14 bytes
3 Barcode ID 14 bytes
• In case of barcode error, "*" padding of 14 bytes
* Barcodes are also read and output for [C.] series (control
mode analysis).
Example: "01"
4 Tube position 2 bytes
• When using rack barcode, "01" to "10"
• When not using rack barcode, space padding (20H)
6.1.2.5. Order data record (Host→Analyzer)
Order data record consists of 7 fields.
Example: "⌴Strip⌴⌴9A"
"⌴Strip⌴11A"
10
7 Test strip name
⌴: Space (20H) bytes
Space (20H) is padded in case the order does not exist in the host.
6.1.2.6. Order result data record (Analyzer→Host)
Order result data record consists of 3 fields.
* Although BLD (Occult blood) is one item, the analyzer automatically determines whether the result is BLD
(Hemoglobin) or BLD (RBC). When storing the results after discernment on the system, assume that the result is BLD
(Hemoglobin) if the concentration value includes a decimal point, and assume BLD (RBC) if the value is an integer.
Note that the units are different between BLD (Hemoglobin) and BLD (RBC). Be careful when reporting values with
units.
BLD (Hemoglobin): [mg/dL]
BLD (RBC) : [cells/uL]
* The result output follows the format registered in [TESTMODE]-[DECISION DATA].
* When R%(2) is used, reflectivity is set to each field of R%(1) and R%(2). Meanwhile, when R%(1) is employed, a
space (20H) is set to the R%(2) field.
