Change HL7 Soup Senders or Receivers to a text Encoding that is not listed

 Not all text Encodings are listed in the HL7 Soup UI.  It makes it too noisy for most users, so only the common ones are there. However, you can change it to any installed encoding via the following steps.

  1. Create your sender. Set the Encoding to 8859-1 and save it.
  2. Close HL7 Soup
  3. Load the file in notepad C:\ProgramData\Popokey\HL7Soup\Settings\1\FunctionSettings.json
  4. Search in the file for the name of your sender.
  5. Change the Encoding property to your Encoding. Google "C# encodings" if you want to find the official encoding name.
  6. Save the file
  7. Reopen HL7 Soup.

Now, if you send with that sender, it will use your Encoding.
