3.2 Self Tests
The system performs self-tests during startup of the software, and at certain points
during the operation of the system. When the software starts, the system is checked
before the operator can start analyses. During this phase, both the hardware and the
software components are tested for anomalies, as well as various requirements for
the operation of the system. If the LIS communication is enabled, the program will
also check the connection to the LIS.
After each slide the system has processed, it checks the positioning of the motors.
While the program is running, the database size is compared intermittently to the
rules set for archiving or automatic deletion of old entries, thus ensuring that the
database is kept at a reasonable and maintainable size.
The communication with, and response of the hardware, is tested continuously
during the operation of the system, and a message will inform the operator if an
error occurs during slide processing or other operations on the system.
