Meter Setup
56
ID setup
Use the ID Setup menu to enter settings for user management and patient management. These
settings are optional and set to Off/Inactive by default; the meter can be operated without these
settings.
There are three types of identification used with the meter:
■ System Administrator: The Admin. (Administrator) has special rights to enter certain
meter settings and is the only one who can enter and change these settings. It is not
necessary for Admin. identification to be activated to use the CoaguChek XS Plus meter.
However, it might be desired or necessary, depending on the regulatory environment and
the site of use.
■ Operator: The Operator ID is assigned to persons who use the meter to run tests. If you
want to use Operator IDs, you have several options:
– You may use Operator IDs to restrict the use of the meter to qualified personnel or a
predefined group of users. In this case an operator list created externally must be trans-
ferred to the meter, enabling you to select an Operator ID when logging in. For more
details see Data handling, starting on page 115.
– You may use Operator IDs for informational purposes only, in order to assign stored
measurement results to the users who performed the test. In this case Operator IDs may
be entered directly on the meter (by keypad).
■ Patient: The Patient ID is assigned to the person, whose test results are recorded. You
can either:
– block input of a unique Patient ID (in this case, every test is simply numbered in
consecutive order)
– allow a unique Patient ID as optional, or
– require a unique Patient ID for every test. Patient lists created externally can also be trans-
ferred to the meter, enabling you to select Patient IDs for a test from these lists. For more
details see Data handling, starting on page 115.
Operator IDs can be selected from a list (if available) or entered by using the onscreen keypad. If
passwords were created, they must be entered via the onscreen keypad. Patient IDs can be
selected from a list (if available) or entered by using the onscreen keypad.
