Aborting a Test Sequence
During the testing sequence, an operator may choose to abort the test sequence by selecting one of
two alternative methods: a) by pressing the “Start Test” button at any time during the test sequence
other than during the breath sampling period(s); or b) by pressing the “A” key on the instrument
keyboard.
NOTE
It is suggested that operators use the instrument keyboard to abort the testing sequence. If an
operator mistakenly uses the “Start Test” button to abort a test sequence while the instrument is in the
breath sampling period (i.e.,
“Please Blow”
phase), the instrument will record a “Refused” test
sequence rather than a “Sequence Aborted” test.
Breath Test Refusal
During a testing sequence, an operator may decide that a subject has, through some willful act,
refused to comply with instructions to provide an acceptable breath sample. If so, the operator should
indicate a breath test refusal by pressing “R” on the instrument keyboard or by pressing the “Start
Test” button during the breath sampling period (i.e., the
“Please Blow”
phase). The instrument will
display the “Subject Test Refused” message.
NOTE
It is suggested that operators use the instrument keyboard to indicate a refused breath test. Unless
the instrument is in the breath sampling period (i.e., the
“Please Blow”
phase) when the operator
uses the “Start Test” button to indicate a refused breath test, the instrument will record a “Sequence
Aborted” test rather than a “Subject Test Refused” result.
