Approving a UDR Calibration
The instrument status must be in
Standby
in order to proceed with the steps below to
approve a UDR calibration model.
The Multi-Point UDR Calibration Result report must show at least one instrument
response (IR) for each calibrator level. If not, the entire calibration run must be
repeated. The exception to rerunning the entire calibration occurs when one of the
calibrator levels has a status of
Incomplete
. The incomplete sample may be rerun as
part of the same calibration rack and its results added to the rest of the calibration data.

NOTICE
A Calibration for a UDR reagent may be approved with the status of "Incomplete" for
some of the calibrator samples. This calibration will include only the completed
replicates for each calibrator level. The incomplete replicates will be completed in a
subsequent run if the calibration rack has not been cleared or removed from the system.
These calibration replicates will be performed using the sample dilution defined for the
UDR.
NOTICE
At the end of this run the UDR reagent will again have a status of "Unapproved" and
require approval to return to "Calibrated". This calibration will now include all the
completed replicates from both runs. If the calibration dilution and sample dilution are
not the same, these replicates could be significantly different. In this case it is
recommended that UDR calibration racks with incomplete replicates be removed from
the system following calibration approval.
