Verification time:
Enter the time (in hours) that is desired for checking the reagent deterioration index.
Sixteen hours is recommended.
NOTE: Always press the Modify and OK buttons if any change is made in the method
configuration. If no parameter is changed, exit by pressing the OK button.
If this is not done, the methods will not be programmed correctly and the results may be affected.
Factor Tab
Figure 8-4
In the
Factor
tab (Figure 8-3), select the
Decreasing method
option for reagents in which the
absorbance decreases upon increasing the analyte concentration. If this option is programmed
incorrectly, a
Warning: Sign error
message along with the calibrator concentration will appear during
the method calibration. This will also be reflected in negative results.
Select from the available methods for results calculation:
Factor
or
Calibrator
curve. If
Factor
option is
selected, enter the corresponding value in the field to the right.
If calibration curve option is selected, select
Calibrator
and complete the fields below. In the
Point
field
assign a number for each point (starting from 1)
Complete calibrator and absorbance field with the value “0”, since the concentration is taken from the
input value in the concentration field of the calibration parameters, and the absorbance value will be
adjusted automatically to the obtained value during the calibration.
