Operator’s Manual – OPTI CCA-TS2
1-5
1 INTRODUCTION
The
bar code scanner
on the right side of the
instrument reads lot, expiration information, and QC
ranges if applicable from cassettes, controls, SRCs
and gas bottles, as well as user-input bar codes for
operator and patient IDs (Fig. 1-5).
The
thermal printer
is accessed by pressing the red
printer release button on the door (Fig. 1-6).
The printer uses heat-sensitive paper to print
measured values, quality control values, calibration
values, as well as patient and diagnostic information.
Contained within the same compartment is a
peristaltic pump
cartridge which is used to
transport liquids and gases (Fig. 1-7).
All liquids are contained within the OPTI Cassette
and do not enter the instrument.
NOTE: The peristaltic pump
cartridge is a
replaceable item
(See Maintenance Section 7.4.1).
