PALTM

PALTM language for Higgins E2 printers is a powerful printing and programming language. E2 printers work like any other printer when using a PAL Windows driver or other software written to take advantage of PAL. But what if the PC or Host application speaks another language? Many host applications have been written to support a specific type of printer and can’t be easily changed to support other printer type without costly upgrades or programming changes. Using PAL, a program is written which “translates” the current language into the new desired label format. This program is then stored in the printer where it continuously does its job.

PALSAFEPALSAFE is a complete, Windows-based, stand-alone software solution for use in downtime patient admittance administration. Each PALSAFE solution is customized and includes pre-designed data Input and printing templates to match the hospital’s specific application requirements. All patient data entry records are automatically encrypted. When the downtime situation is cleared, PALSAFE data can be exported to the hospital’s HIS via Excel or flat file formats.
