Calibrating DxC Chemistries Using Assigned Calibrator Racks
From the Rgts/Cal screen, check the Calibration Time Left column shown in
days:hours:minutes and the Cal Status column to see which chemistries require
calibration.
Canceling a Calibration Request
Follow the steps below to cancel a calibration request.
Step Action
1 Select the Rgts/Cal icon from the menu bar.
2 Select the chemistries to be calibrated. If necessary, use the up and down
arrows to select more chemistries.
3Select Cal [F4].
4Select List [F5] to review the calibrator load list. Make sure the lot number
on the calibrator bottle is the same as the lot number on the screen.
5 Get the assigned calibrator racks listed on the screen and place the cups
into assigned rack positions as shown on the load list.
6 Place calibrator into sample cups.
• For Aqua cals 1, 2, and 3, fill a 0.5 mL cup.
• All other calibrators need 3 drops of calibrator in a 0.5 mL cup.
7 Place the rack (1) in the autoloader (2) with the rack bar code label to the
right. Press the RUN button (3) on the analyzer. Refer to Figure 5.9.
Step Action
1 Select the Rgts/Cal icon from the menu bar.
2 Select the appropriate requested and assigned chemistries to be canceled.
3Select No Cal [F8] to cancel calibration request.
Chemistries currently selected and programmed for calibration may be
canceled only if the calibration is not yet in progress.
Calibration reports for a given calibrator do not print until all calibrations
are complete for each chemistry requested, unlike sample and control
results, which print on a cup-by-cup basis.
