5. Analysis of Test Strips
Note: The Urispec
®
Plus will perform an automatic calibration each time a test
is run.
5.1. Select strip
The Urispec
®
Plus reader can read different test strips. Upon turning on the
instrument, the display will show all available strips. Select the strip you want to
use and press .
NOTE: If you do not make a choice, the reader will start with the preselected
strip after approx. 15 seconds.
NOTE: The strip selection screen only appears when the reader is turned on.
If you want to change to a different strip type, turn the instrument off and turn
it on again. Then make your choice.
5.2. How to perform a measurement
The Urispec
®
Plus is very easy to use. In order to start the measurement, the
test strip is placed on the strip holder. The instrument automatically detects a
new strip and starts the measurement. A progress bar appears, that indicates
the remaining analysis time. After 30 seconds the test strip is drawn into the
instrument, after 60 seconds it is released.
NOTE:
Make sure to remove excess urine by blotting the test strip carefully on a lint-
free cloth.
NOTE: If "Autostart" is deactivated, the measurement must be started using
the start control panel
(see 10.5. How to deactivate and activate the
autostart, page 32).
After the measurement, the instrument will release the analysed test strip which
can now be discarded. The result is displayed on the screen and is transferred
via the interfaces and / or printed according to equipment settings.
For additional information on the test strip, please read the package insert that
comes with the strips.
DANGER:
Urine and used test strips bare the danger of infection. Always use protective
gloves during handling and disposal. The disposal of used test strips should
be performed according to the regulations for the handling of potentially infec-
tious material.
