4.3 Performing a test
1 Check the battery level.
2 Check that the date and time are correct. Correct
any wrong entries as described in Chapter 3, Meter
Setup/“Setting the date”.
If a lockout (Operator or QC Lockout) is displayed instead
of the Patient Test button, you must run a liquid quality
control test before you can perform a patient test (refer to
Chapter 5, Control and Proficiency Testing). When the
meter is in lockout status, a patient test cannot be
performed.
The next steps depend on whether you work with or
without patient lists.
If the Patient Test button is available, but a lockout is
displayed (QC!), one or more test parameters are locked.
A test can only be performed for parameters that are still
unlocked or as a STAT test (if this function is enabled and
if there are still STAT tests available). In these cases a QC
status screen will be displayed after touching Patient
Test.
For more details on STAT test configuration see pages 88
and 115.
■ If the battery icon turns red (one bar left), there may
not be enough power left for another test.
■ If there are no bars left in the battery icon, you cannot
perform any more tests. Power the meter off by
pressing .
In both cases, restore power by recharging the
battery pack, or using the power adapter.
