Running Patient Samples
When to Run a FastPack
®
IP
The FastPack
®
IP System analyzer is ready to run a FastPack
®
IP at any time as long as it is turned on, has
reached operating temperature and pressure, and has been calibrated. If the analyzer is not at operating
temperature, the analyzer will not operate and the BLUE button will not function. Leave the analyzer
turned on 24 hours a day so that it will always be at operating temperature.
The analyzer performs a comprehensive Self Diagnostic test every midnight to ensure the system is
functioning properly. When the Self Diagnostic test is running, the analyzer door will be locked shut.
