6.2.1 Tube tests

With the spectrophotometer MACHEREY-NAGEL tube tests can be selected in 

different ways. All test tubes are labeled with a barcode. When the start screen 

is active or the device is in measuring mode, the barcode of the inserted test 

tube will be scanned automatically. The instrument detects the tube test and the measur-

ing process is initiated automatically (tube tests which need to be measured against a 

zero solution cannot be measured automatically).
After the measurement has been completed, the measurement result will be displayed 

in the result window. Via 

 and the icons below the result window, different sample 

information can be added. Removal of the cuvette or leaving the menu via the remainder 

of the task bar icons quits the measurement process and stores the measurement result 

in the measurement memory of the device.

In addition to opening the measurement menu through barcode identification, in the test 

menu it is possible to manually select the tube test from a list through 

 or to manually 

insert the test number through 

 1  2  3 
 4  5  6
 7  8  9

 .

In case of these two options, the measurement will not be triggered automatically after 

insertion of the test tube. In these cases you can initiate the measurement by pressing
