Automatic Calibration Options
The Operator may configure the AEROSET System to perform
automatic calibrations for the following situations:
• Calibration at the end of the specified calibration interval
• Calibration after reagent lot change
• Calibration after Reagent Cartridge change
NOTE: When calibration is automatic (initiated by the
System), the Operator will not have the opportunity to
cancel the calibration unless it occurs simultaneously with
another assay calibration exceeding its configured interval.
NOTE: For further information about defining calibration
parameters in the Assay Configuration screen, refer to
Module 8, Configuration.
NOTE: For the Automatic Calibration option to be used,
the calibrators must be defined on the Calibrator/Control
Carousel.
NOTE: When configured, an automatic calibration is
performed only when a reagent lot change or cartridge
change occurs during a run. An automatic calibration is not
performed when a reagent lot or cartridge change is
detected at the start of a run that is initiated from the
READY status.
NOTE: If an automatic calibration is expected during a
run, ensure the correct calibrators are loaded before
starting the run.
NOTE: Stability of calibrators on the Calibrator/Control
carousel has not been established.
• Operator will be notified when the
calibration interval is exceeded if don’t
have Auto Cal configured.
When an assay calibration (not
configured for auto-calibration) exceeds
its configured interval, the “Cancel” key
will be available. Selecting the “Cancel”
key will cancel over-interval calibrations
as well as auto-calibrations.
