Closed Mode QC
QC samples may be run on the Sample Loader using the “Q Labels,”
which are bar code labels provided with the Sample Loader. Each label is
designated Qx, where x indicates the file number. If these labels are
placed on the control tubes, the results are automatically transmitted to
the file indicated by the label. QC samples may also be run on the
Sample Loader without these labels.
NOTE: Be sure the Work List is OFF before beginning these
procedures. If necessary, refer to the Work List section of this
chapter for instructions.
