ABL77 Service Manual Chapter 1: Introduction
Panel Options
Introduction
This section explains the panel options available with the ABL77 analyzer. When
servicing an analyzer it should always be returned to the same settings.
Available
options
The ABL77 can be configured for the following options:
• Blood gas and Hematocrit Only (BG/Hct)
• Electrolytes Only (Lytes)
• Full Panel (BG/Hct/Lytes)
Management
The different analyzer configurations are controlled through the analyzer software
configuration at the time of purchase. The analyzer can be upgraded or
downgraded after purchase.
The same configurations are also available in sensor cassette types. The different
types are controlled through the sensor cassette barcode.
A full panel sensor cassette may be used on any analyzer configuration. The
analyzer will report “ NI ” (Not Installed) for non-configured parameters.
A BG/Hct or Lytes sensor cassette will only report their respective configured
parameters when installed on a full panel analyzer. Other parameters not supported
by the sensor cassette configuration will be reported as “NI”.
When attempting to install a BG/Hct sensor on a Lytes only analyzer (or
vice-versa), the analyzer will reject the installation.
