Operating the System
CAUTION:
Operate the system strictly as instructed by this manual. Inappropriate
use of the system may lead to unreliable test results or even
equipment damage or personal injury.
Before using the system for the first time, run the calibration program
and QC program to make sure the analyzer is in proper state.
Be sure to run the QC program every time you use the system,
otherwise the result may be unreliable.
Do not open the cover of the sample/reagent disk when the system is
in operation.
The RS-232 port on the analyzing unit is to be used for connection with
the operation unit only. Do not use it for other connections. Only use
the supplied cable for the connection.
The operation unit is a personal computer with the control software
installed. Installing other software or hardware on this computer may
interfere with the system operation. Do not run other software when the
system is working.
Do not use this computer for other purposes. Inappropriate use of it will
probably introduce computer virus, which may spread into the system
through floppy disks, software or network.
Do not touch the display, mouse or keyboard with wet hands or hands
with chemicals.
Don’t place the MAIN POWER to ON again within 10 seconds since
placing it to OFF; otherwise the system may enter the protection
status. If it does so, place the MAIN POWER to OFF and place it to ON
again.
Maintaining the System
CAUTION:
Maintain the system strictly as instructed by this manual. Inappropriate
maintenance may lead to unreliable results or equipment damage or
personal injury.
To wipe off dust from the system surface, use a soft, clean and wet (not
too wet) cloth, soaked with soap water if necessary, to clean the
surface. Do not use such organic solvents as ethanol for cleaning. After
cleaning, wipe the surface dry with dry cloth.
Switch off all the powers and disconnect the power plug before
cleaning. Take necessary measures to prevent water ingression into
the system, otherwise it may lead to equipment damage or personal
injury.
Replacement of such major parts as photometer, probe, mixing bar and
syringe plunger assembly must be followed by a calibration.
