Send-results mode
You can configure the system to send results to the LIS
system using one of these modes:
• In automatic mode, the system sends results
immediately after each test. If the communication link
becomes disconnected, the results store as LIS
Pending, indicated by a number in the LIS indicator
circle. When the link is restored, the data is sent, and
the indicator number goes to 0.
• In manual mode, the system accumulates test results
in the results database until a user sends it to the LIS
from the Results screen.
