3.1 Programmable Test Locations
The unit can store up to 5000 individual programmable test
locations (numbered PROG# 0 to PROG# 4999).
Each location is assigned a pair of upper (  ) and lower (  )
result threshold values, plus an optional location name.
When a sample measurement result is displayed, the
RLU reading is compared against the selected Program
thresholds to determine the overall Pass or Fail result:
Banding Result
Reading ≤ lower threshold (  )  Pass
Reading > upper threshold (  )  Fail
For details of how to determine the appropriate program
thresholds for your particular operating procedures, please
contact your Getinge representative.
To set-up the Program thresholds, refer the section 4.2.
To select a Program location press the “P” buon, then use
the up and down buons to change the Program PROG# to
the desired Program location, followed by the “OK” buon
to accept the new location, or the “P” buon to cancel the
selection.
TIP: While selecting a PROG#, the display also shows the
time and date that the Program location was last tested.
NOTE: If the selected Program location does not have
any thresholds defined, they must be set-up using the
PROGRAM menu option (see section 4.2) before the
Program can be used.

that the liquid in the Test® Swab device is at the boom of
the tube.
When the measurement is complete, the test result and
overall pass/fail result are displayed:
