6. Troubleshooting
Negative control failure
1. Clogged sample filter
2. Contamination of Lamina
3. Contamination of Negative control
Calibration rack failed
1. Labels not aligned properly on the rack
2. Poor barcode label quality
3. STM tube detector is misaligned or out of calibration
4. Barcode reader is misaligned
5. Inadequate mixing (air pressure is low or there is a leak in air
system)
Non uniform flow in Runfile
1. Fluid system leak
2. Obstruction in fluidic path (sample filter)
3. Loose fitting in fluidic system
4. Faulty peristaltic pump cassettes
5. Flow cell failure
Inconsistent cell count from run to run in Runfile
1. Faulty pump cassettes
2. Loose fitting in fluidic system
3. Obstruction in fluidic path (sample filter)
4. Low air pressure
5. Flow cell failure
SP-FLI (spatial flow index) is high in all Runfiles
1. Loose fitting in fluid system
2. Faulty pump cassettes
3. Obstruction in fluidic path (sample filter)
4. Flow cell failure
SP-KSP are high in all Runfiles
1. Peristaltic pump is not working properly
• Faulty pump cassettes
• Bad roller
2. Flow restriction in fluid system
Bubbles are present in fluid system
1. Cannula pump manifold leak
2. Loose fitting in fluid system
3. Faulty peristaltic pump cassettes
