(4) The next sample number to the previously analyzed sample in Auto mode appears
above the numerical keys. Clear the number by pressing [C] key and input a new
sample ID number with the numerical keys, if needed.
NOTE: • After the power ON, the next sample No. is automatically set to No. 1,
increasing by 1 for each succeeding sample (e.g., 1, 2, 3, ...).
• When less than 10 samples are set in a rack, the Sample Nos. will be
automatically assigned for the vacant tube position(s). Therefore, for
example, when the next Sample No. is set to "1" and the Tube No. is
set to "5", the analysis for the rack ends with Sample No. 6.
(5) Press [ENTER]. The numerical keypad will disappear. Verify that the input
sample number is displayed to the right of [Sample No.] key.
NOTE: • The sample ID cannot be set to zero.
• The initial value is 1, with the number increasing by 1 for each
succeeding sample (e.g., 1, 2, 3, ...).
• The sample ID can include numbers (0-9) and hyphens up to a
maximum of 13 characters.
• Hyphens cannot be placed at the beginning or end of the sample ID
number, nor can two hyphens be placed consecutively.
• A number will not be carried beyond a hyphen. For example, the
number following 2-999 will be 2-000; 1-99-000 will follow 1-99-999.
• The number following 9999999999999 will be 1.
