1.4. Sample identification
A Single sample number identifies orders that are generated from the worklist. If the operator
does not enter a number, the instrument will automatically assign a number as followed:
«AUTO_SID_xxxxx»
Fig. 4–1 Automatic sample numbering
If the operator enters an order with a Sample ID that already exist in worklist, the previous
order will be updated! Modifications cannot be performed during the sample analysis process.
Orders are deleted once the sample analysis is complete.
3 modes of sample identification are available:
◆
Barcode identification (see 1.5. Barcode Identification, page 4-5)
◆ Rack/Position identification (see 1.6. Sample identification on Rack/position, page 4-
8)
◆ Automatic numbering by the instrument.
1.5. Barcode Identification
The Barcode Identification mode is the most recommended mode on the ABX PENTRA 80 be-
cause it ensures the best security and flexibility. Easy association between Sample orders and
the sample tube can be identified by the barcode.
The «Sample ID» field must match that of the barcode label. Entering the sample tube posi-
tion in the rack is not available while in this mode.
