System Setup Options
Configuring the Chemistry Menu
15 User-Defined Chemistries
from the
Setup
screen, you can Configure the UDR by selecting
2 Chemistry Configuration/Sample Type
from the
Setup
screen. After the
Chem Configuration/Default
Sample Type
screen appears, selecting
UDR F2
presents a list of all User Defined Chemistries on the
system. Refer to CHAPTER 8,
User Defined Reagents
in this manual for additional information on
application of user-defined parameters.
Defining Chemistry Print Name
The Define Print Names function permits definition of the chemistry name that appears on the
chartable report. Each chemistry may be given a name of a maximum of 15 characters. To define the
chemistry print name, select
2 Chemistry Configuration/Sample Type
from the
Setup
screen. Select
Define F3
from the
Chem Configuration/Default Sample Type
screen to use the
Define Print Names
screen.
Inserting a Chemistry
The Insert function inserts a blank position for adding a chemistry to the menu. After a blank
position is inserted, the chemistries following that position are incremented by one position. If 180
is exceeded, the last one is dropped. From the
Setup
screen, select
2 Chemistry Configuration/Sample
Type
. Refer to the UniCel DxC Synchron Clinical Systems
Reference Manual
for additional
information on this procedure.
Deleting a Chemistry
The Delete Chemistry function requires that you first clear the calibration, sample programming
and control (QC) information from the instrument before deleting the chemistry from the system.
Where it is used, Beckman Coulter recommends that you remove chemistries from the system
following the sequence and procedures below to prevent problems with deleting chemistries from
the QC definition:
IMPORTANT
Control samples in the "sample required," "incomplete" or "rerun" status may prevent the
removal of the chemistry from the QC definition.
Remove the Chemistry from Reagent/Calibration (Example: DIGN)
1
Select
Rgts/Cal
from the menu bar.
2
Ensure the cal status of the chemistry DIGN is not "Requested." To cancel a calibration request:
•
Select the position for the appropriate requested and assigned chemistry to be canceled.
•
Select
No Cal F8
to cancel the calibration request. Chemistries currently selected may be
canceled only if the calibration is not yet in progress.
