5.B. Starting a Protocol (continued)
Figure 37. Lot and expiration date entry screen.
When sample tracking of the lot and expiration date
of the Maxwell
®
RSC reagent kit is required, this screen will be presented so that the information can be
manually entered after a protocol is selected. If a kit bar code was scanned to select a method, this informa-
tion will automatically be recorded and this screen will not be displayed.
4. After selecting a protocol, you will be presented with a Cartridge Setup screen (Figure 38) that allows
you to specify the positions on the deck tray that will be occupied by cartridges and to enter identifica-
tion information for each sample.
a. Deselect empty positions by touching the blue rectangle for each position that will not be used. The
unused positions will turn gray with no data shown. The inclusion or exclusion of any given sample
processing position is only used for reporting purposes to indicate how many samples were
processed and in which position they were processed on the instrument.
b. Once cartridge positions are selected, you must enter all optional administrator-configurable
sample tracking information specified by the administrator to proceed. Administrators may
configure sample tracking information of sample identifiers such as Sample ID, Kit Lot Number,
cartridge ID, elution ID, and other information required by two additional administrator-defined
fields. All of the required information must be entered for all selected cartridge positions before the
Proceed
button becomes active.
• Touch the black box below a cartridge position to enter sample identifier information for the
selected position. If cartridge and elution tube bar codes are required, we recommend that these
are entered immediately before placing the cartridge or elution tube in the deck tray.
• Tap twice on the
Sample ID
box to enter the sample information manually.
