8 Calibrating the analyzer
8.1 Introduction
Calibration is a procedure to standardize the analyzer by determining its deviation under
certain specified conditions. In order to get accurate sample analysis results, you should
calibrate the analyzer per the procedure below when necessary.
All the parameters or part of the parameters of WBC, RBC, HGB, MCV and PLT can be
calibrated by the calibration programs.
NOTE:
• The analyzer identifies a sample as a calibration sample only if the analysis is started
from the "Calibration" screen.
• Calculation of reproducibility is included in the calibration procedure.
8.2 When to calibrate
This analyzer is calibrated at the factory just before shipment. It is electronically stable and
does not require frequent re-calibration if you operate and maintain it as instructed by this
manual.
A re-calibration of the analyzer is required if:
• An analytical component has been changed.
• You are going to re-use the analyzer after a long-term storage.
• The quality control results indicate there may be a problem.
• Use environment changes significantly.
NOTE:
• Calibration shall be carried out by technical support only.
• All of the measured parameters must be calibrated before readings of this analyzer can
be used as valid analysis results.
