Programming a Single-Point UDR Calibration
A single-point calibration update can be performed on a UDR after a multi-point
calibration has been performed and approved. This option is not available prior to
multi-point calibration. The single-point calibration update result is compared to the
multi-point calibration and the system calculates a scale factor. After the update is
approved, the scale factor is applied to quality control results and patient results.
The instrument status must be in
Standby
in order to program a single-point UDR
calibration. Program a single-point calibration as follows:
Step
Action
1
From the User-Defined Chemistries screen, select
Request Cal [F4]
.
(Refer to Figure 5.28.) The UDR chemistries on the reagent carousel will
be displayed.
2
Select up to six UDR chemistries for calibration.
3
Select
<OK>
to continue.
OR
Select
<Cancel>
to return to the User-Defined Chemistries screen.
4
From the UDR Cal Assign screen, select (check) the single-point update
box. The predefined update single-point level and the
Cal ID
fields will be
enabled. (Refer to Figure 5.43.)
5
From the UDR Cal Assign screen, enter an
available
rack number in the
Rack
field.
OR
Select
Clear Racks [F1]
and enter the racks and/or positions to clear.
Select
<OK>
to clear or
<Cancel>
to exit without clearing.
6
After a rack number is entered, fill in the
Pos
field according to the level
defined for the chemistry displayed.
7
Enter a Cal ID in the
Cal ID
field (optional). Up to 18 characters may be
entered.
8
Select
Save [F9]
or a menu bar icon to save the calibration program for the
displayed chemistry.
OR
Select
Cancel [F10]
to exit the screen without saving any calibration
programs.
9
Repeat Steps 1-7 to program additional racks for calibration of other UDR
chemistries.
