NOTE
Check the reagent instruction, or consult the
reagent manufacturer or distributor to see if mixing
of R1 and R2 are allowed prior to testing.
3 Dispense sample or calibrator or control into the tube.
4 Incubate the tube in a water bath tank or external incubator for a while.

10 Select Calibrate and select calibrator in the drop down list box of S1-S8.
Put the inlet tube into the calibrator to be tested and click Aspirate . If it is
multiple-point calibration, you can proceed to the next step only when the
calibration tests of all the calibrators are completed. Put the inlet tube
into the sample blank, and click
Aspirate .
12
NOTE
You can determine whether it is necessary to run
sample blank.
Hemolysis, icterus or lipemia in the samples may
lead to unreliable test results, so a sample blank is
recommended.
13 Select Sample ID and click Sample. Put the inlet tube into the sample
and click
Aspirate . Repeat this to test other samples.
14 After calibration is finished. Click QC and select controls from the
drop-down list box C1-C3. Put the inlet tube into the control to be
tested and click
