iQC Codes
A.1 Using iQC Codes for
Troubleshooting
The analyzer can display warnings, iQC codes, and messages to help
diagnose and resolve potential problems.
iQC (Intelligent Quality Control) is a series of automatic checks that
verify the chemistry, optics, and electronic functions of the analyzer dur-
ing each run. This ensures that operators in a wide range of environ-
ments report only accurate and reliable results. iQC automatically
suppresses a single chemistry — or the entire panel — if it detects
uncharacteristic performance, and immediately alerts the operator to any
problems.
If the analyzer displays an iQC code, find the code in the following
pages, and try the suggested solutions in the order presented.
Note: If the iQC code is not listed or if you cannot correct a
particular problem, record the iQC number or print the
report, and contact Abaxis Technical Service, 24 hours a
day, 7 days a week, at 1-800-822-2947, or send a fax to
1-877-900-9333.
