analysis
because the
sensor or the
cartridge is not
working
correctly.
Perform the following steps until the system is
ready for use:
• Perform up to two 2-point calibrations.
• If the parameter fails the 2-point calibrations,
view the events log for D codes and messages.
• Replace the sensor if necessary.
• If the parameter passed the 2-point
calibrations, perform AutomaticQC analysis
for the failed level of control.
• If the parameter fails AutomaticQC analysis,
analyze a QC sample for the failed level using
QC material from an ampule.
• If the parameter fails the ampule QC analysis,
review the events log for D codes and
messages.
• If the parameter passes the ampule QC
analysis, replace the AutomaticQC cartridge.
The target
ranges for one
or more
parameters are
too narrow.
• Verify that the target ranges entered for the
control are correct.
If you specify target ranges that are narrower
than those provided with the control,
parameters may fail QC analysis.
• Analyze QC for the failed level.
Refer to Performing Unscheduled QC Sample
Analysis‚ page 4-4.
• If the results are within range, restore the
parameter.
Refer to Restoring Parameters‚ page 4-12.
• For AutomaticQC samples, analyze the failed
level.
Refer to Performing Unscheduled QC Sample
Analysis‚ page 4-4.
If the results are within range, the system
restores the parameter.
• If analysis fails again, review the events log for
D codes and messages.
