Internal controls are ordered into 3 groups:
Optional
All internal controls known to the instrument that are not categorized as
“Required” or “In use” appear under “Optional”.
Required
Batch(es) is(are) queued. The QIAsymphony SP knows which internal controls
are required to run the queued batches. The required internal controls are not
detected automatically and have to be assigned to the detected positions
In use
The QIAsymphony SP either has automatically detected an internal control or it
was manually assigned to a particular position in the fifth tube carrier. These
internal controls are listed under the category “In use”.
Important
If the internal control was labeled with a bar code but the bar code was not
correctly read, the associated position button becomes yellow. To continue, the
internal control has to be manually assigned using the internal controls displayed
in the
Internal controls: list. If the internal control was not labeled with a bar
code but the QIAsymphony SP detected that a tube was present, Unknown IC is
displayed in the corresponding position. The internal control has to be manually
assigned using the internal controls displayed in the
Internal controls: list.
