OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW
The Retest Sample Handler (RSH) Module is the portion of an integrated instrument system with which
the operator interacts to load and unload samples. The sample-handling module moves samples from the
loading platform to each aspiration point on any processing module through an instrument system.
Indicator lights located on the front of the RSH provide carrier status information to the operator. The
design of the RSH allows random and continuous access, and sample positioning for automatic retesting.
Overall RSH configuration is determined by the Processing Module configuration.
Two types of bays position samples for either routine or priority processing.
Priority bay (RSH)
The priority bay is a holding area that positions samples for priority processing. Samples are placed in
Sample Carriers and then loaded into the priority bay. These samples are processed prior to other samples
in the routine tray bays.
Routine bay (RSH)
The routine bay is a holding area that positions samples for routine processing. Samples are placed in
Sample Carriers and then loaded into Carrier Trays. The Carrier Trays are then slid into a routine bay.
