2.2 Method Parameterization
2.2.1 PT-parameterization
Method parameters in the analyzer have been preset by the manufacturer.
Prior to performing clotting analysis you must update the method parameter
for the reagent used.
• Set analyzer to STANDBY mode
< 1 PT >
STANDBY
• Press Mode. The analyzer will request you to enter an up to 5 digit long
secret number (factory setting: 11111). For additional information refer to
chapter 2.2.8.6 Menu secret number.
<- secret no.:
..
_________
If the wrong number was entered STANDBY will be displayed. As soon as
the correct number has been entered, the following display will appear:
<1.conv>
Press the arrow key -> to display the following menus: <1. conversion>,
<2. conversion>, <replication>, <measurement> and <cuv remove
detec.>.
Overview PT parameterization:
<1.conversion>
<curve>
input of a 9-point calibration curve under or
<quick>
to enter the 100%-value and slope or
<none>
for no conversion
<2.conversion>
<INR>
input of the ISI-value for INR or
<ratio>
input of normal value for ratio calculation or
<none>
for no conversion
<replication>
select single or double determination
<single>
and the coefficient of variation
<double>
(CV 1-20%).
<measurement>
start reagent volume, reagent lot. no.
and sample incubation time.
<cuv remove detect.>
refer to chapter 3 Software
<ON>
activates the automatic cuvette detection
