Interface: ManufacturerRecord

The M (manufacturer) record - vendor-defined free-form data (QC / calibration / maintenance), surfaced VERBATIM and never interpreted into typed clinical fields.

Interpreting a vendor M record as clinical data would be a fabrication, so this record carries no typed accessors at all: the exact wire text is in ManufacturerRecord.rawLine (byte-preserving) and the tokenized tree in RecordBase.fields. Nothing is parsed into a value, a code, or a unit.

Properties

fields

readonly fields: readonly AstmField[]

The record's fields. fields[0] is the type-letter field; data fields are 1-indexed after it.

Inherited from

RecordBase.fields

---

rawLine

readonly rawLine: string

The record's exact wire text (terminator excluded), preserved byte-for-byte.

Emit reproduces these bytes exactly whenever a reader using the delimiters being emitted against would recover the fields this record models - always the case when the record is already in those delimiters, and also when it carries no delimiter either set would split on. Otherwise the record is re-encoded from RecordBase.fields, so the row can never go out in delimiters the header does not declare. To change a value, edit fields; editing this string has no effect on emit.

recordIndex

readonly recordIndex: number

0-based ordinal of the record within the message.

Inherited from

RecordBase.recordIndex

---

type

readonly type: "M"

The record's raw type letter.
