3-8-4- Releasing an alarm during an assay
On the interface, a problem during an assay is indicated by a change in colour of the
ALARM
button from
green to red. The number of alarms is indicated in the
ALARM
button.
Some faults do not interrupt the run cycle (for example, lack of reagent or sample) and may be resolved in the
course of the run cycle.
Other faults will terminate assays (for example, lack of IDS-iSYS System Liquid, fault in a module, etc.). If a
module is faulty, the analyser will carry out the assays which do not use this module.
•
Click on the
ALARM
button.
•
The software opens the faults window and indicates the fault which has occurred.
•
In the case of a lack of ancillaries (for example, IDS-iSYS Cuvettes or IDS-iSYS System Liquid) installing the
new ancillary and ensuring its barcode identifier is read by the barcode reader will automatically release the
fault.
•
If the fault involves one of the internal ancillary reagents or the IDS-iSYS Wash solution, the run cycle must
be stopped before the fault can be resolved.
•
For other faults, select the fault then click on
.
•
If the fault cannot be resolved during the assay, the software displays a message.
•
Release this message, then either wait for the end of the current workload or request all assays to be
stopped.
Option «Clot detection»: releasing specific alarms
When a system is equipped with the option «Clot detection», two di
ff
erent alarms may occur during a run
cycle, either when a clot is detected during sampling, or if the probe is clogged. User intervention is required
after releasing one of these two alarms.
The message indicating that a clot is detected under the sampling needle can be resolved during the run cycle.
If the sampling probe is clogged, the cycle must be stopped and the message released.
WARNING:
RISK OF BIOLOGICAL CONTAMINATION
The probe is in contact with biological samples. There is, therefore, a potential risk of
infection.
Wear disposable gloves for all handling procedures.
Clot detected
When a clot is detected during sample pipetting, the arm stops over the position where the fault is detected
and the probe waits over the sample concerned.
•
Select the fault then click on
. The sampling probe moves up.
