4.1.3.1 Connection to Host Computer not available
The following procedure is recommended:
• On the basis of the paper J-list, assemble the strips necessary to perform the tests.
• Place all the strips in the tray (it is not necessary to respect the order of insertion from the
paper J-list), taking care to place the calibrators always in the first positions of the tray.
• Start the identification process through the R-list command in the Start Window.
• Get positioned on the first identified position.
• Dispense the serum in the cuvette #1 of the strip
• Assign the patient code (if available) to the strip through the bar code reader.
• Proceed to the next position (strip).
• Repeat steps 5-7 for all the samples.
• Once the process is completed, if no errors have been signaled, the cycle can be started.
For more details about the R-list windows see paragraph 4.6
4.1.3.2 Connection to the Host computer available
If there is a connection to a host computer, the following procedure is recommended:
• Enter the C-list window from the Start Window.
• Insert all the patient codes in the table, on the basis of the paper Job-list printed from the
Host and using the bar code reader.
• Request programming by the Host, using the Host command. The system completes the C-
list with the compilation of the column of the tests associated to the samples present. The
acronyms of the tests are magenta colored, because they are still temporary codes (test
code followed by a series of zeros).
• Assemble the strips relative to the tests requested by the host and go to position on the first
sample of the table.
• Enable the MOD mode of use, to modify.
• Read the strip code with the bar code reader. If the test code is correct, the strip code is
assigned on the table. If the strip code does not correspond to the test code expected by the
C-list, no code is assigned.
• Insert the strip read into an empty position of the tray.
• Repeat steps 6-7 for all the list.
• Exit from the C-list window and enter the R-list.
• Once the instrument has identified all the strips, dispense the serum into the strips, starting
from the strip in the first position until all the samples on the tray are finished.
