4.6 THE R-LIST (RUNNING LIST) WINDOW
4.6.1 S TANDARD USE OF THE R- LIST
The R-list contains the list of tests to be performed and may also contain the sample codes associated
to these tests. (For information regarding the R-list, see paragraph 4.1.3).
Before pressing the R-list key in the main window, the strips must be inserted in the tray.
Note:
The strips that are intended for dispensing the calibrators have to be inserted in the sample holder tray,
without leaving empty positions or inserting controls and/or samples between one calibrator and
another, from the first position onwards.
In case a calibration of a new product batch is executed the instrument will show, at the end of the
scanning of the bar codes of the strips, the error “NO CALIB” on every test of that batch. This error will
disappear directly after reading the calibrator bar code ; the sample code associated to the strip in
which the calibrator is dispensed, will then be substituted by the text “cal + acronym of the test in
execution”.
Whenever the association between the calibrator and the strip is already executed in the C-list
modality, remember to insert the strips of the calibrators in the first positions of the sample holder tray,
one after the other, as specified above.
If a C-list has been compiled, these strips will result already associated to the relative tests. If no C-list
has been compiled, it is sufficient to insert all the strips that do not yet contain serum, in the tray.
When the R-list key is pressed in the main window (confirmation is required), an identification
procedure starts, which identifies all the strips present in the tray, and indicates eventual errors (see
5.4.2.4).
ATTENTION
During the identification phase, the strips are classified according to “families” of homogeneous tests
relative to the execution parameters of the tests themselves. If several families are identified, the run
will be divided into sub-sessions, each of which is performed separately, one after the other, without
any interruption to the instrument function. Each sub-session is stored as an independent session.
