Clear Samples
Introduction
When the test program is processed, if all positions are used, the rack is not available for
programming again until it is cleared. Only the programming information is deleted; the results are
stored and are accessible through the recall function using the appropriate recall option.
Calibrator IDs or rack/position assignments are not cleared from within Sample Programming.
Refer to CHAPTER 4,
Reagent Load/Calibration , Calibrator Assignment , for information on calibrator
identification.

When clearing data, to verify exactly what will be cleared, first view the load list for the
