3-8-2- Adding samples during an assay
•
If the analyser is not connected to a centralised computer system, programme the profile(s) to be performed
on the samples.
•
If the light is green, open the sample compartment.
Removable trays
•
Slide the removable tray containing the new samples into a rail in the sample compartment until the
positioning pin is fully inserted.
•
The positions and the barcoded tubes are automatically identified by the integrated barcode reader as the
tray is inserted in the rail.
•
On the interface, the tray is displayed with the free and occupied positions. Each identified position is
labelled with the corresponding icon.
For tubes from patients whose profile has already been sent through via a centralised computer or manually
programmed, the profile in the memory is automatically associated with the position.
•
If the barcode is not read by the barcode reader or is missing for a position, identify the products installed
(see page 63).
•
Proceed in the same way for other trays to be added.
•
Close the compartment.
•
The trays defined for automatic start are automatically added to the analyser’s workload.
•
For the others, the new assays will be added to the analyser’s workload after clicking on the corresponding
button.
Fixed tray
•
Scan the barcode with the reader located on the front face. The analyser will beep when the barcode has
been correctly read.
•
Within 10 seconds, place the sample in a free position on the rack. If the sample is recognised, the analyser
will beep a second time. On the interface, the display will indicate that the position has been identified. If no
second beep is heard, the position is considered to be occupied but not identified. In this case, re-start the
barcode reading and installation process.
•
If the barcode label is illegible, click on .
•
Use the keyboard to enter the barcode identifier.
•
Select ‘Vial association with samples tray’ and click ‘OK’.
