CAUTION: Baeries should not be placed into the ATP
Unit in the wrong direction, as this may cause permanent
damage to the internal electronics.
When the baeries are inserted correctly, the unit will
automatically turn on and enter the clock set-up mode.
Refer to section 4.8 for how to set the time and date.
2.5 Turning On the Unit
To turn the unit on, press the buon. The unit will beep once
and display the power-up self-check display:
NOTE: If the baeries are too flat, the unit may turn on and
back off again automatically, or may not turn on at all. If this
happens, replace the baeries immediately.
The unit will then perform its internal calibration self
checks (see section 2.7 below).
NOTE: If the clock is not set, the unit will automatically
enter the time and date set-up mode (see section 4.8)
before performing its calibration self-check.
Important Tip: When the baery is replaced, the date and
time need to be set.
2.6 Low Baery Indicator
The low baery icon indicates the state of the baeries:
Icon Baery State
Not Visable Good
Visable Low- replace baeries soon
Flashing Flat- replace baeries now!
When the baeries are completely flat, the unit will flash the
icon, beep three times, and automatically turn off:
CAUTION: Never leave flat baeries in the unit, as they are
prone to leaking/corrosion, which will damage the unit.
TIP: Always store the unit in a cool dry place when not in
use, as elevated temperatures will shorten the baery life.
2.7 Internal Self-Calibration
When the unit is turned on, it performs an internal
calibration, as the display counts down from 15 to 0
seconds.
NOTE: During the self-check sequence, there must not be
a Test® Swab device in the unit and the lid must remain
closed. If the
icon is shown with the arrow flashing, open
the lid and remove the Test® Swab device from the unit. If
the
icon is flashing, close the lid.
TIP: The “Menu Select” buon can be pressed at any time
to access the set-up menu options. Refer to section 4 for
further details.
When the calibration self-checks are complete, the unit is
ready to perform a sample measurement:
NOTE: When the unit is ready to perform a measurement,
with the lid closed and no Test® Swab device present, the
unit will automatically perform a zeroing cycle under any of
the following circumstances:
• The unit is turned on for a prolonged period of time
(typically 30 minutes).
• The unit is used in an environment where the temperature
changes significantly (typically 5°C).
• The user presses and holds down the “OK” buon for 1
second.
2.8 Turning the Unit Off
To turn the unit off, press the “Power On/Off” buon. The
unit will beep once and the display will go blank.
NOTE: To avoid accidental turn off, the “Power On/Off”
buon is disabled whilst the unit is performing a sample
measurement.
2.9 Power Saving Standby Mode
If the unit is on but has not been used for 19 minutes, it will
beep every 10 seconds for 1 minute and then automatically
turn off, and the display will go blank. If any key is pressed
during that time the unit will reset the Standby Mode
countdown. You can change the Standby Mode seings
(see section 3.4).
To turn the unit back on, simply press the “Power On/Off”
buon.
2.10 Low Memory Warning
The unit can store up to 2000 test results in its internal
memory. When the memory is more than 95% full (i.e. less
than 100 tests remaining) the following warning symbol is
displayed:
When the memory becomes completely full, no more tests
can be performed until the memory is either erased or
uploaded to the PC. Refer to section 5.
