Cycle Count Description
Temperatures
Introduction
The actual temperature of each of the various components is shown along with:
•
the valid range.
• an indication of when a parameter is out of limits.
A yellow highlight indicates a warning condition and a red highlight indicates an error condition.
IMPORTANT
While the system is in the Stopped state, temperatures will not be accurate. If the system boots
directly into the Stopped state, no temperatures are shown for the systems that caused the Stop state. If
the system goes to Stopped from Standby or Running , the temperatures shown reflect the previous state
and will NOT be updated while the system is Stopped .

Table 10.2 Counters
Counter Description
Modular Chem Each result for each cup is counted separately. Even if ORDAC is triggered, the
counter only increments for the one result.
ISE A count of the number of samples run through the ISE module. Whether it is a
single chemistry per sample or a sample running all five chemistries, the ISE cycle
count increments only one time per sample processed through the ISE module.
Cartridge Chem Each cartridge chemistry reagent dispensed is counted.
Blade Count • This is the number of caps pierced by the blade(s).
• For 1-Blade CTS, the system sets this counter to zero when the blade is
replaced. To replace the blade for 1-Blade CTS, refer to
CHAPTER 9,
Maintenance .
CTS Count The total number of caps pierced by the Cap Piercer Module.
Sample Count The total number of sample containers that have been scanned by a sample ID
bar code reader.
