Cycle ReportSetup
Reports from the last 100cycles can be printed or exported electronically to a USB drive. When the 100cycle limit is reached, the oldest cycles are replaced with the most recently run cycles.
Select the desired cycle(s) from the list of the last 100cycles (sorted with the most recently run cycles at the top) and select the desired function from the following options: print selected cycle,
export selected cycles, or export all cycles. Only one cycle may be selected for printing. Multiple cycles can be selected for export to a USBdrive.
To export electronic reports, insert aUSB drive (data storage device) into one of two USB ports on the GS Series sterilizer. Recommended USB drives include those with FAT32formatting. USB
drives with pre-loaded software (e.g. SanDisk’s Cruzer®) are not recommended. Connect only USB drives for the export of data to the USB ports. Do not connect external USB devices that supply
power to the USBports.
Select the cycle(s) for which you wish to export reports and press the OK button. The selected reports are stored in the USB directory selected by the user. The sterilizer will ask for confirmation
of the Folder designation before export. The electronic reports are generated in color and are sized as 20.3cm (8in.) x 27.9cm (11in.) images and contain the same information as the strip
chartreports.
The GS Series sterilizer has control sensors for temperature, %RH, and pressure that provide information to the control embedded software. In addition, the sterilizer has a duplicate set of
monitoring sensors that provide independent data and performance monitoring during critical sterilization stages for temperature, %RH, and pressure. The sterilizer defaults to report only on the
control sensors. Monitoring sensors can be selected for reporting in the Cycle Report options screen in Figure11.
