AlinIQ NCi - Copy NC (ancc) file onto a USB memory stick

NC files are uploaded to analyzers via USB memory stick as described in the next

section.

The following rules apply to the number and type of NC (ancc) files that may

reside on the USB memory stick:

• Any ancc file to be uploaded to an analyzer must reside at the top level of the

directory structure of the USB memory stick. The ancc file should not be in a

folder.

• The USB memory stick may contain multiple ancc files created with serial

numbers, but the serial numbers must be unique (there cannot be more than

one ancc file with the same serial number at top level).

• The USB memory stick may contain one and only one ancc file created without

a serial number. If both serialized and non-serialized ancc files are placed on the

USB memory stick at the top level, then upon upload to the analyzer, the

analyzer will attempt to upload a serialized ancc file if it finds a serial that

matches that of the analyzer itself, otherwise it will attempt to upload the

non-serialized ancc file.

Use the following steps to copy the ancc file onto the USB memory stick:

Plug the USB memory stick into the USB slot of the computer. A message

displays indicating that the operating system recognizes the drive and it is

ready to use.

From the

Start

menu, click

Computer

Downloads

In the displayed list, find the

filename.ancc

file and right-click on it.

Click

Send to:

and press

Enter

. This loads the file onto the memory

stick.

Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each ancc file to be copied.

AlinIQ NCi - Upload an NC (ancc) file to an analyzer

To upload an NC (ancc) file, an i-STAT Alinity base station and a USB memory

stick that the NC (ancc) file resides on are needed.

Some preformatted USB flash drives may not work with the i-STAT Alinity system. To avoid
issues, reformat the drive using a Windows PC before using the USB flash drive with the
Alinity system.

Follow these steps:

Plug the USB memory stick into the USB slot of the base station.

Place the i-STAT Alinity v Analyzer in the base station.
