Chapter 6 Calibration
Calibration Factor Calculation
As each run of the whole blood samples is completed, a Calibration
Factor is calculated and updated. This factor is displayed in the column
labeled <SPEC (N) FACTOR>.
The column labeled <MEAN FACTOR> contains the average of the
calibration factors for all of the whole blood samples used in the
calibration. The number in parentheses after mean factor indicates the
number of samples used to compute that mean factor.
The <FACTOR % DIFF> column displays the difference between the
calibration factor currently in the instrument and the mean factor
computed by the Auto-Cal program.
When all runs of all whole blood samples have been completed, the
message:
NEW CAL FACTOR COMPUTED. READY FOR ACCEPTANCE
is displayed on the bulletin line.
1. Press [PREVIOUS SPECIMEN] and/or [NEXT SPECIMEN] to
review and/or print the results of all whole blood samples analyzed.
NOTE: These results are only available for review and/or
printing before the [ACCEPT MEANS] key is pressed.
2. Press [PRINT] to obtain a printout of the <SPEC> and <MEAN
FACTORS> and the <FACTOR % DIFF>.
3. Enter the factor % difference for each parameter in the Mode to
Mode Calibration Criteria Worksheet provided at the end of this
procedure. (This worksheet may be duplicated as needed.) The
Calibration Criteria are shown in Table6.6.
NOTE: Delete the sign of the factor % difference value before
entering it in the chart.
4. To determine which parameters require calibration, continue with
the next section.
