5 Configuring the System
The 248 can be used with the default (factory set) options and values,
but there are several setup options available on the 248 which allow
you to customize the 248 for your laboratory. Where applicable, we
have recommended settings.
Full instructions on how to choose options and enter data is given in
Section 1, Understanding the System. If data is entered which is outside
the allowable range, or incorrect with respect to values already entered,
the data entry field flashes and the value reverts to the previous value
to allow you to enter the data again.
The setup options are available in 3 menus:
• Operating Setup
• System Setup
• Service Setup
When you have configured the 248, print the Setup Report, Page 5-7, so
you have a record of the options selected.
