4. PATIENT LIMIT
For Patient Limit, you can set Mark Limits.
The Mark Limits are the values set to determine whether analysis values are within the
normal range or not. This program can be used to set the upper and lower Mark Limits for
each analysis parameter.
When analysis data exceeds the upper Mark Limit, it is flagged with [+] mark, and when it
exceeds the lower Mark Limit, it is flagged with [-] mark. Analysis data output to the built-in
printer or the host computer is also attached with either marks.
