8. QC TESTS
Step 3: Once analysis of the first QC test cartridge is finished, the SoToxa™ Mobile Test System will prompt you to remove the current test
cartridge and insert the other QC test cartridge. Note that if QC failed on the first cartridge, QC testing will be abandoned; see step 5.
Step 4: Following analysis of the second QC test cartridge, results of the QC test will be displayed as ‘QC Results: Pass’ or ‘QC Results: Fail.’
Step 5: If the QC tests have failed, contact Customer Service. Do not continue testing.
Step 6: After acknowledging the results by selecting OK, the analyzer will prompt you to print the QC results. Refer to section 7.7 Printing results.
Step 7: After printing the analyzer will prompt you to remove the test cartridge to complete the QC testing.
8.4 QC lockout
If the PQC and NQC cartridges have not been successfully completed in the last 15 days, no further drug tests can be initiated until the quality
control checks have been completed.
The following screen will be displayed when a test cartridge is inserted if the analyzer is in lockout mode.
The QC lockout symbol will also be displayed in the status bar.
Press the right soft key to exit and then insert either one of the two QC cartridges to initiate the QC testing as described in the section above.
