2. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
The plate moves toward the front and back of the instrument.
When taking an optical reading, the reaction plate automatically positions itself under the
8-channel optical system. A filter wheel with four or six filters rotates below the plate.
Depending on the setup, reports may be displayed or printed to create permanent lab
records and physician reports.
