◆
Type the calibrator lot number using the virtual keyboard or an external keyboard (if one is
connected).
2- Enter the calibrator name:
◆
Press " Name " field to select it.
◆
Type the calibrator name in the " Name " field using the virtual keyboard or an external keyboard
(if one is connected).
3- Enter the calibrator expiration date:
◆
Press " Date " field to select it.
◆
Type the calibrator expiration date in the " Date " field using the virtual keyboard or an external
keyboard (if one is connected).
The expiration date must be given as a date with the date format set in the settings menu (See
Section 6,
3.4. Date format setting, page 6-5 ).
4- Select the number of calibration cycles in the " No. of cycles " combo box using arrows.
◆
The number of samples you can run for calibration is a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 11. In
order for the instrument to provide the best mathematical data for a good calibration, a minimum
of 6 sample runs is highly recommended for quality statistical calibration data.
5- Enter the calibrator target values for each parameter (WBC, RBC, HGB, HCT, PLT, MPV):
◆
In " Target values ", press value fields to select them.
◆
Type the calibrator target values in the fields using the virtual keyboard or an external keyboard
(if one is connected).
6- Press " Close " key to close the virtual keyboard if it is opened.
7- Press " OK " button.
Running calibration
1- A prime cycle is launched first. The following message is displayed: " Calibration cycle
initialisation in progress, please wait. "
Once the prime cycle is finished, the following message is displayed: " Please insert your sample
and launch the 1/X analysis of the calibration procedure. " ("X" represents the total number of
calibration cycles).
2- Run calibration cycle:
ABX Micros ES60 CT:
◆
Select the tube holder position for the calibrator vial and rotate it to the 12:00 o
'
clock position.
◆
Gently and thoroughly mix the calibrator material as indicated on the instruction sheet that comes
with the calibrator.
◆
Place the calibrator into the tube holder.
◆
Close the tube holder door.
The cycle will begin and the sample will be aspirated. During the cycle, the tube holder door will
open so the calibrator vial can be removed for the next sample.
ABX Micros ES60 OT
◆
Gently and thoroughly mix the calibrator material as indicated on the instruction sheet that comes
with the calibrator.
◆
Place the calibrator beneath the sampling needle and raise the vial upwards so that the sampling
needle enters into the blood.
◆
Press manual sample bar. The cycle will begin and the sample will be aspirated.
If " Cancel " button is pressed, the calibration procedure will be cancelled. In
this case, to rerun calibration, it will be necessary to run a startup cycle and
to identify the calibrator again.
Remove the cap from the calibrator vial before placing it into the sample tube
holder. Severe sampling needle damage will occur if the cap remains on the
vial.
