begin test,” open a test card pouch

3. Insert the test card. Upon successful insertion, the epoc
reader will beep once and calibration will begin. The reader
must remain on a flat surface throughout testing
4. After calibration is complete, the message
“Inject Sample”
will appear on the Test Results page tab

After calibration is complete, the Host will display
a status bar indicating the time remaining to
inject a sample (450 seconds)
