How to modify the result?
Results can be modified by pressing the
Edit button on the second result
page, before the record is printed or sent.
All fields can be modified except date and pad results, even if the particular field
was not available during the acquisition.
Before performing the next measurement
From the test table, remove the used urinalysis strip and dispose of it according
to your standard laboratory procedures. Wipe the table insert, if necessary.
7.2 Test features and customization
The testing process can be customized to the need of the laboratory. The
measurement feature settings define what activities related to testing process
(start) are automatically performed by the instrument. The measurement settings
define the activities performed by the analyzer and the collected information.
7.2.1 Features: Autostart-, print-, transfer- and fast mode
The measurement features can be modified on the Main»Options»User Options
screen.
Autostart: if enabled, measurement is automatically started (without further user
interaction) if a strip is placed on the test strip tray. By using this feature the
instrument can operate “touchless” (if all the additional data fields are disabled).
Default value: enabled.
Auto print: if enabled, the analyzer automatically prints the report of each meas-
urement. Default value: enabled.
Auto transfer: if enabled the analyzer automatically transfers the result to the
defined output (i.e. through the serial port to an LIS). Default value: disabled.
NOTE: These features can be modified by any operator and stored separately
for each operator (Pro)
Fast mode (serial reading): if enabled, the test strip is measured directly after
Measure is pressed on the Measurement screen (note: in fast mode the large
start button is renamed to Measure and the background is changed to orange).
In this case, it is up to the user to time the incubation period outside the analyzer.
When working in Fast Mode, ensure that you have a foolproof system for match-
ing sequence numbers to samples.
The status of fast mode cannot be saved. After logout or system restart the
analyzer always starts in Normal mode.
When performing serial measurements in Fast Mode, allow the strips
to react for approximately 60 seconds before inserting them in the ana-
lyzer and pressing MEASURE. False-low or false-negative results may
be obtained for some parameters if the reaction time is too short. Like-
wise, false-high results may be obtained for some parameters if the
incubation time outside the analyzer is too long.
