INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE –
3M™ Attest™ Auto-reader 390 Configuration
Note:
Ideally, the 3M™ Attest™ Auto-reader 390 should be empty (i.e., have no
incubating BIs) when it is reconfigured.
Press the
and
buttons on the front of the 3M™ Attest™
Auto-reader 390 simultaneously for 3 seconds to enter configuration mode. Once in
configuration mode, use the Up
and Down
buttons to set the 3M™ Attest™
Auto-reader 390 clock, audible alarm, and incubation well configuration as desired.
The button
acts as an “Enter” key and moves the flashing cursor to the next
changeable setting.
Setting the 3M™ Attest™ Auto-reader 390 Clock
The 3M™ Attest™ Auto-reader 390 date and time are displayed in this format:
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM, with the time displayed using a 24 hour clock. To change the
year, if necessary, push the up or down buttons to set desired year, then press
to
advance to the month, adjust as necessary and press
to advance to the day. Use the
button to move to the time and set the hours and minutes.
Setting the Audible Alarm Function
Move across the top row of text by pushing the
button. The flashing “B” in Buzzer
indicates this is a changeable setting. It is recommended this be set at “Buzzer Enabled”
to audibly alert the operator to a positive BI but it may be set to “Buzzer Disabled” by
using either the up or down button. Note: If Buzzer Disabled is selected, and the changes
accepted, the speaker icon ( ) will disappear from the LCD panel and the alarm will be
disabled for all positive 3M™ Attest™ Rapid Readout Biological Indicators, error codes,
and caution code alarm warnings. Note: The 3M™ Attest™ Auto-reader 390 display
backlight flashes whenever an audible alarm sounds. Disabling the audible alarm does
NOT disable the LCD display backlight flashing.
Press
to select the desired option and advance to the bottom row of text.
