Alta / CTK / Athenese analyzer integration
SamLab ships driver profiles for 29 Alta / CTK / Athenese models across biochemistry, elisa, hematology, connecting over ASTM, Serial. Finished results reach result entry matched to the sample by barcode — nothing is typed twice.
Supported Alta / CTK / Athenese models
Every model below has a driver profile in the current SamLab build. If yours is a variant not listed, it very likely speaks the same protocol as its family — ask us and we will confirm it on a live connection.

How a Alta / CTK / Athenese analyzer connects
ASTM
ASTM E1381/E1394 records arrive over a serial cable or a TCP socket. SamLab acknowledges each frame and posts the results it carries.
Serial
A direct RS-232 link. Match baud rate, parity and stop bits to the analyzer; SamLab reads the stream and parses the result records.
The link is one-way: the instrument sends results and SamLab receives them. SamLab does not send the worklist back to the analyzer, so nothing here can change what the machine runs.
Common questions
- Is my Alta / CTK / Athenese model supported?
- If it appears in the list above, yes — the profile ships in the app. If it does not, tell us the exact model; most additions are a new profile rather than new code.
- Which cable or network setting do I need?
- It depends on the model: ASTM or Serial. The analyzer’s own LIS or “host” settings screen names the protocol it uses, and the matching section above says what SamLab expects.
- Does it need internet?
- No. The analyzer and the SamLab PC talk over a cable or the local network, so results keep arriving through an internet outage.
