Preparing the Lower Bay
The operator must manage the Lower Bay inventory any time the computer workstation is
started or restarted, one of the fluids becomes depleted or expires, or one of the waste
containers is filled.
The System monitors every component in the Lower Bay and displays the number of tests
remaining for each component in the Lower Bay
panel of the Inventory screen.
Managing the Lower Bay inventory involves four tasks:
1. Replacing depleted or expired fluids
2. Scanning the barcodes of the fluids into the system
3. Emptying the solid and liquid waste containers
4. Priming the fluid lines in the system
To begin the Lower Bay inventory process:
1. Click Load... in the Lower Bay
panel of the Inventory Status screen.
A Load Fluids
window opens, giving basic instructions for the Lower Bay inventory
procedure.
2. Open the Fluid and Waste Doors. Rotate the drawer latches and pull out the Fluids
Drawer.
Note: The number of available tests that is displayed for Auto Detect 1, Auto Detect 2, Oil
and Wash Solution is the total combined number of tests remaining in both the A and B
bottles of each fluid.
Note: If system is shut down, on-board stability is not tracked for the following fluids: Auto
Detect 1 & 2, Oil, and Wash Solution.
Warning: Always wear proper protective equipment, including a laboratory coat, gloves,
and eye protection, when working with hazardous materials.
