2-6 Operator’s Manual – OPTI CCA-TS2
2 SETUP
6. Performing tHb Calibration
The tHb Calibrator Cassette should be run prior
to patient testing when rst setting up your
analyzer. The tHb calibrator should then be run
every three months. Your OPTI CCA-TS2 will
remind you when the tHb calibration is due.
The tHb Calibrator Cassette can be found in
the storage compartment in the back of your
analyzer.
• In the <Ready> display, scan the bottom
bar code on the calibrator cassette package
by holding it 2-3 inches (5-8 cm) from the
bar code scanner located on the bottom
right-hand corner of the analyzer (Fig. 2-14).
