Description
(1)
Test name 1
-
Displays test names in the output order that has been set in the
Group. ISE and non dedicated LIH reagents are not displayed.
(2)
Test name 2
-
In case of 2-tests/1-reagent *, another test name is displayed.
(3)
Number of shots
or remaining
volume
-
The number of shots (tests) remaining or volume in mL. Select the
Shot/Vol.
drop down to change the display. Select the
Type
drop
down to view the shots or volume for the specified sample type.
(4)
Indicator
-
Displays the remaining reagent volume based on programming in
Reagent Inventory. If
Reagent Inventory
is not in use (values set to
0), then the indicator always displays the entire indicator bar at 100%.
If
Reagent Inventory
is in use, the indicator bar displays how much
reagent is remaining based on the amount required for the day. For
example, if Glucose is set to use 1,000 tests on Friday, and there are
500 tests of Glucose remaining in the bottle, the indicator bar will be
at half the display area, or 50%.
Reagent quantity indicator bar(s): The R1 indicator bar displays on
top of the R2 indicator bar if Advanced Calibration is set to No and
Multi Reagent Switch is set to No in
Parameters
. In a 3-part reagent,
the order of the bars is R1-1, R2-1, R1-2 from top to bottom. If
Advanced Calibration is set to Yes and Multi Reagent Switch is set to
Yes in
Parameters
(as in most cases), there is a single indicator bar
even for an R1/R2 assay.
(5)
Background
color
Orange
A reagent assigned to the Group is missing from the R1 or R2, the on-
board stability is expired, the reagent is expired, or the bottle is empty.
Yellow
Reagent volume is short (low).
Green
The remaining volume is less than the necessary volume based on
Reagent Inventory
calculations.
Light Blue
Required reagents are set.
