for the rest of the message and is the first field in the HL7 MSH
segment (MSH-01).
The value is a decimal ASCII number, and the allowed range is
1 to 127. The default setting is 124, which is the pipe character
(|).

|
Sending Facility
|
A user-defined value that further identifies the sending application
among multiple identical instances of the application running on behalf
of different organizations. The default is Sun HL7 adapter.
This is the fourth field in the HL7 MSH segment (MSH-04).
|
Receiving
Application
|
A user-defined value for the receiving application among other
applications within the network enterprise. The default value is Sun HL7 adapter.

|
Security
|
The implemented application level security features.
This is the eighth field in the HL7 MSH segment (MSH-08).

HL7 Application processing rules.
Specify one of the following options:
-
D - The message
is part of a debugging system.
-
P - The message
is part of a production system.
-
T - The message
is part of a training system.

be an additional value, the processing mode,
following the initial value. This value can be A (archive), R (restore
from archive), or I (initial load).
|
Version ID
|

This value is matched by the receiving system to its own version to
ensure that messages are interpreted correctly. The default value
is 2.5.
This is the 12th field in the HL7 MSH segment (MSH-12).
|
Country Code
|
A code that indicates the country of origin for the message
(see HL7 Table 0399). Use the 3-character (alphabetic) form of ISO
3166. This value is used to specify default elements in a message,
such as currency. The default value is USA.
This is the 17th field in the HL7 MSH segment (MSH-17).
|
Character Set
|
The character set(s) used by the messages (see HL7 Table 0211).
If the field is left blank, the character set is assumed to be the
7-bit ASCII set. The default value is 8859/1 (printable
7-bit ASCII character set).
This is the 18th field in the HL7 MSH segment (MSH-18).
|
Principal
Language of Message

language of the message.
This is the 19th field in the HL7 MSH segment (MSH-19).
|
Alternate Character Set Handling Scheme
|
The value for the alternate character set handling scheme to
be used when any alternative character sets are used and a special
handling scheme is necessary (see HL7 Table 0356). Possible values
are ISO 2022-1994, 2.3,
or <null> (blank). Leaving the field blank
indicates that no character set switching will occur.
This is the 20th field in the HL7 MSH segment (MSH-20).
|
Conformance
Statement ID
|
A unique identifier that applies to a query’s conformance
statement. It can also be used as a Message Profile Identifier to
assert constancy with a message profile (grammar, syntax, usage, and
so on).
This is the 21st field in the HL7 MSH segment (MSH-21).
|
Validate MSH
|
An indicator of whether to validate the MSH segment of the data
message (for inbound) and the MSH segment of the ACK (for outbound).
Select true if you want the Collaboration to
validate the MSH segment; otherwise select false.
This parameter is used in Collaboration code.
Note –
This property does not affect structural validation of
the entire HL7 message itself. Structural validation is always performed.
