2.1.3 Sample Racks
There are eight types of sample racks in all. These racks can be identified by the label color and name on the front of
the rack.
Normal rack [No label or name]
Start rack [Light blue, START]
IMPORTANT:
Use suitable sample racks. Set the samples, HbA1c control and HbA1c standard solutions in their specific
ports. Inaccurate measurement results will be obtained if measurements are performed with the wrong rack.
REFERENCE:
Orange labels indicate sample racks for diluted samples such as hemolysis samples, controls and standard
solutions.
Use Normal measurement, HbA1c reproducibility test (whole blood sample)
* Normally use this rack to measure samples.

Adapter Port guides are not attached at the time of shipment. Attach port guides if needed according to
the type of sample tubes to be used.
Sample container Sample tube
Use Normal measurement, HbA1c control measurement, HbA1c calibration, HbA1c reproducibility

Use the start rack when sample rack transportation is set to “loop transportation”.
Set this rack as the first rack to be measured on the loading side of the sampler. Measurement
operation will stop automatically after all samples have been measured and the start rack has
returned to its initial position.
Example: For normal measurements, set the start rack in the first position, followed by normal
racks in the 2nd to 10th positions.
