10.1 Connecting an External Printer
You can print results from the Piccolo Xpress using any USB-compatible external printer approved by
Abaxis. For a list of approved printers, call Abaxis Technical Support at 800-822-2947 (for Europe,
contact techsupport@abaxis.de).
Connect the printer as described in the printer's instructions. See
configuration instructions.
10.2 Connecting a Computer
The Piccolo Xpress analyzer is equipped to transmit patient and control results in multiple formats to a
computer through the analyzer's USB serial port. To receive the results from the Piccolo Xpress, the
computer requires terminal emulation software (such as HyperTerminal, included with Windows 95
through Windows XP) and driver software to communicate with the Piccolo Xpress.
Abaxis can also provide data files for interfacing with an LIS/EMR system. Contact Abaxis Technical
Support for details.
Test results can be saved to a text file for viewing with word processing, spreadsheet, and database
applications. This section describes the transmission specifications and hardware connections, and
using HyperTerminal to capture results to a text file.
Note:
Data management systems can be interfaced with the Piccolo Xpress to collect analysis
results. Since the installation for each type of data management system differs, please
contact your data management system supplier for more information.
