Interacting with the device
Header
: Displays important system information,
like the date and time, current operator ID queue and
status line messages.
The four placeholders below the date and time indi-
cate, from left to right:
•
the number of active errors
•
the number of records in the printing queue
•
the number of records in the output queue
•
the number of items in the worklist
ǽ
The background color of the status bar is a ba-
sic notification about the system’s status. It turns
yellow to indicate a warning message and red to
indicate an error.
ǽ
Active error and warning messages can be listed
by tapping the status bar area.
Content navigation bar:
Indicates the current section of the system. The
navigation bar shows the track of the location within the menu structure. ‘»’ is the
hierarchy separator character.
Content area:
The primary operation area of the Touchscreen. If the ‘autologin’
operator is enabled (See “10.4.2 System security settings”), the Measure screen
is displayed first. In the work area the user can start a measurement, switch to
the LabStrip U mALB/CREA test strip, handle the worklist, cycle through the
worklist items and go to the QC, Main and Data screens.
This part of the screen will sometimes also display instructions, feedback, or
error messages.
4.2 Touchscreen operation
The touchscreen can be operated with bare fingers, gloved fingers, ballpoint
pens with retracted tips, or any stylus-like object. Tap the touchscreen gently
but firmly in a touch-sensitive area to get a response. Generally, the screen areas
that have frames around them respond to tapping: buttons, check boxes, radio
buttons, and text boxes.
The touchscreen display is made of glass. Do not touch the screen if the
glass is cracked or shattered. Glass screens are sensitive to drops and
mechanical shocks.
ǽ
A separate foil layer is attached to the screen to prevent liquids from leaking
into the system.
ǽ
Sound effects are on by default and the system confirms successful tap
events with a short clicking sound.
