The different combinations of material, design, treatment (coating) and color (tint) have different LNAM values which are sent to DEO.
Device Settings for Essilor
Essilor has the ability to send VC labels with different values for specific devices. This is done in two ways; if done with a PROC record, the value is sent specifically to apply to only one type of device. For example, Essilor may send "PROC=R;GEN;;;LMATID;26", which indicates that LMATID=26 should be sent to a generator (GEN) which requests LMATID. This is standard behaviour for the VC PROC label.
Essilor also sends device-specific data inside of _LDCRYPT blocks. For example, inside the LMS file might be a block defined as:
_LDCRYPT=DEO:VFT;R;395
_ZZENCRYPT=DO=B
(some data)
_/ZZENCRYPT
The data inside the ZZENCRYPT loop can be optionally stored, in Rx-Universe, to be send to a device appropriate according to the DEO label. This data must be selected within Rx-Universe to be saved device-specific; the default behaviour is for all these options to be unchecked:
Each of the different labels (LMATID, LDTYPE, ENGMARK, GAX, etc) can be individually selected (or not). If selected, then the corresponding VC label values will be stored, in Rx-Universe, for that particular device type.
For ENGMARK records, there can be multiple records sent in the main section, as well as in one or more LDCRYPT blocks. For these ENGMARK records, records inside the DEO:VFT block will be sent to any DEV=GEN device; records inside DEO:LASEROPLM3 blocks will be sent to any DEV=ENG device. For ENGMARK inside of other DEO:XXXXX blocks, they will be sent to a device identifying itself as DEV=XXXXX where XXXXX is some device identified (for example, CTA). For ENGMARK records only, the values from any applicable LDCRYPT block will be send IN ADDITION to the ENGMARK records in the main section (in the section of the LMS file outside of the LDCRYPT blocks).
Save device ENGMARK - if checked, then any ENGMARK records sent in the LMS file will be saved and sent to an engraver which requests ENGMARK. Note that ENGMARK is normally a series of records, and not a single record as with most other VCA labels.
Note that for Essilor Digital only, it is possible for Essilor to send different ENGMARK records for different devices, by including ENGMARK records in the LDCRYPT blocks for specific devices. In this case, any ENGMARK records in the main section (outside of any LDCRYPT blocks) will be sent to all devices requesting ENGMARK. ENGMARK records received within a DEO:VFT block will be sent to any GEN device; and ENGMARK records received within a DEO:LASEROPLM3 block will be sent to any ENG device. Any other DEO: value will be sent only to devices of that device type (for example, ENGMARK records received within a DEO:CTA block would be sent to a DEV=VTA device).
