(EAN-128) on reagent box. Updated information is displayed (lot,
exp. date, volume).
Note: Use barcode on box for RED, SNR, and FFS. Do not use barcode label on

Caution: NR(S) MUST be replaced each time the NR(L) cube is replaced.
Empty NR(S) does not trigger message.
If needed, manually input Reagent information:
a. Press [↑] or [↓] to select reagent for manual entry.
b. Press [MANUAL] on function menu. Manual Input is displayed.
c. Press [↑] or [↓] and input information for new lot:
• For Lot No.
• Press [NUM/ALP] 1 time (ALP). Input 1st letter of Lot No.

• [↓] to Exp. Date. Use “Num” key, input Month (nn).
Press [→] to Day. Use ‘Num” key (nn).
Press [→] to Year. Use ‘Num” key (nnnn).
• [↓] to Exp. after Opened. Use “Num” and input open dating.
Open dating is 60 days except SULFOYSER which is 90 days.
• [↓] to package size. Input size from box.
d. Press [OK] to exit Manual input display and return to Reagent Setting
screen. Lot No., open Exp. Date, and package size is displayed.
4. Remove cap from new reagent container. Using clean technique, remove

6. Reagent replacement is documented on Reagent Log in XE Main Menu,
Controller icon, Reagent Log icon. This Log may be printed by Report,
Ledger (LP) Print. A Remaining Reagent Volume icon is also available.
Notes:
• When changing NR(L) and RED, the diluent and dye must be changed at
the same time. NR(S) does not trigger message.
• If STROMATOLYSER-NR or RET-SEARCH (II) reagents are empty and no
replacement reagents are available, XE may still be analyzed using Open
Manual Mode for CBC and DIFF orders only. Do not perform Auto Rinse or
Shutdown.
• STROMATOLYSER-4DS (FFS) is replaced when the FFS reagent cycle coun-
ter reaches 2000. Do not replace this reagent unless “Replace FFS” Error
