3.3.14 PatientID(PID) Settings
Supervisors can use the instrument menus to require Operators enter PID to run tests.
When Operators are required to scan the PID, the user is prompted to activate the barcode scanner. For
more information about using the barcode scanner, see “Using the Barcode Scanner” (page 24) .
In addition to using the instrument menus to congure PID settings, Supervisors can also use CCM to
congure these same settings and to congure other more advanced PID settings. See “Centralized
Conguration Manager (CCM) Software” (page 71) .
3.3.14.1 Require Operators to Enter a PID and Specify the Method
Supervisors can require Operators to enter a PID before they run a patient test. By choosing whether
or not to require Operators to enter a PID, a Supervisor also species the method the Operator is
allowed to use to enter the PID.
1 Select (Settings) > Supervisor Settings > PID Entry Preference.
2 In the dialog box ( Figure 37 ), select the appropriate option:
● Not Required – Before Operators run a patient test, they are NOT required to enter a PID.
● Required (Scan or Manual Entry) – Before Operators run a patient test, they are required to
enter a PID. They can scan a compatible barcode or manually enter the PID.
● Scan Only – Before Operators run a patient test, they are required to enter a PID by scanning
a compatible barcode.

3.3.14.2 Reuse a PID (Automatic Entry of the Most Recent PID)
If a Supervisor requires an Operator to enter a PID when they run a patient test, they can choose to
have the instrument automatically enter the PID that was entered for the previous test. This is a
convenience that keeps the Operator from having to manually reenter the PID when they run a series
of tests. Instead, the Operator only needs to review the PID that was automatically entered and then
accept it.
PID reuse can remain enabled for no less than 1 hour and no more than 240 hours. The factory default
setting duration is 0 (zero) hours. Meaning, PID reuse will not go into e󰀨ect until a Supervisor species
a duration other than 0 (zero). See “Specify PID Reuse Duration” (page 42) .
NOTE: If the instrument automatically shuts down or if an Operator manually shuts it down, the
PID reuse duration is automatically reset to 0 (zero).
Allow Reuse of a PID:
1 Select (Settings) > Supervisor Settings > PID Reuse (During Patient Test).
2 Select On to enable PID reuse:
● O󰀨 (Toggle O󰀨) – Disabled.
● On (Toggle On) – Enabled (the PID will automatically be entered into the dialog box).
