To set the Program result thresholds on the unit, first 
select the PROGRAM menu option by pressing  . Scroll 
to “PROGRAM” and press “OK”. Then use the up and down 
buttons to scroll through the list of Programs, followed by

to accept the new location, or the “P” button to cancel the 
selection.

TIP: When selecting a Prog:, the display also shows the time 
and date that the Program location was last tested.

NOTE: If the selected Program location does not have 
any thresholds defined, they must be set-up using the 
PROGRAM menu option before the Program can be used.

4.3 Establishing ATP Pass/Fail Limits

For instructions on establishing Pass/Fail limits, refer to the 
implementation guide included with your system, or visit 
the resources available on www.getinge.com.

4.4 Viewing Stored Test Results

The unit can indefinitely store a maximum of 2000 test 
results in its internal memory, even when the batteries are 
low or removed.

To view these stored test results, select the MEMORY menu 
option by pressing the   button. Scroll to “MEMORY” and 
press “OK”. Then use the up and down buttons to scroll 
through the test results, pressing the “OK” button to exit.

TIP: After reviewing the stored test results, a failed Program 
location can be selected for retesting by pressing the 
button (see section 4.2).

 

  

TIP: While reviewing the stored test results, a failed (f) 
Program location can be selected for retesting by pressing 
the “P” button. Refer to section 3.3 for details.

4.5 Viewing Statistics Data and Test Failures

The test results database can be analysed by selecting the 
STATISTICS menu option by pressing the   button. Scroll 

to “STATISTICS” and press “OK”. This will display a simple 
comparison of all the stored results. The   button also 
provides a direct shortcut to this function.

The up and down buttons can then be used to scroll through 
all of the failed ( f ) test results. Press the   button to exit.

TIP: When reviewing the failed test results, a Program 
location can be selected for retesting by pressing the “P” 
button (see section 4.2).

 

  

With the unit turned on, the Set-up Menu can be accessed 
by pressing the   button.

NOTE: Getinge SafeStep ATP Monitor software is required 
for sections 3.1 to 3.3. For further details, refer to the 
separate Getinge SafeStep ATP Monitor User’s Manual 
located on the Getinge SafeStep ATP Monitor software CD 
that comes with the unit.

4.1 User ID

The unit can store  (0 to 200) User Ids. Each test result will 
be tagged with the currently select User Id.

Select the User ID menu option, then use the up and down 
buttons to scroll through the list of User IDs, then press the 
button to select the a User ID, or the “OK” button to cancel 
the selection.

TIP: User:0 is the default selection if no User ID list has been 
defined.

4.2 Setting up Program Test Points and  

Pass/Fail Limits

The unit has the ability to store a list of 5000 unique 
Program test points (Prog# 0 to 5000), each with its own 
upper and lower pass/fail result threshold values.

Program test point location names can only be 
programmed to the unit through the Getinge SafeStep ATP 
Monitor software. Program pass/fail thresholds can either 
be set-up on the unit, or set using the Getinge SafeStep 
ATP Monitor software. If a location name is entered and 
threshold set in the Getinge SafeStep ATP Monitor, and 
then downloaded to the unit, the threshold values can’t be 
changed via the unit. This is a security feature and prevents 
inadvertent changes to the thresholds after they have been 
set.

TIP: Prog:0 has a special function, whereby the threshold 
values defined for Prog:0 are used as the initial values 
when setting-up the other Prog thresholds. Thus setting 
Prog:0 with your typical threshold values will save time 
when setting-up the other Programs. The unit comes with 
pass/fail thresholds of 100 RLU for pass and 100 RLU for 
fail. These pass/fail thresholds were determined based on 
a comprehensive study looking at ATP, food residue, and 
microorganism samples. To receive the report or more 
information on setting up pass/fail thresholds contact 
Getinge USA, Inc.
