5.5 Measurement of parameters in the optical measuring position
If optical tests have to be carried out it has to be ensured that no used cuvette is in the optical
measuring position of the MC 10 plus when it is switched on. If this can not be granted switch off
the instrument once again for the reason of security, remove the cuvette from optical
measuring position and switch on the analyser again.
The measurement of parameters in the optical measuring differs from measurements in the
mechanical measurement positions as follows:
a) The activating key of the measuring position is not located directly under the measuring
position but in the keyboard right from the right arrow key.
b) A total sample / reagent volume of at least 300 µl has to be reached ifor ensuring a correct
measurement.
Before a photometrical test can be carried out it has to be programmed as freely programmable
test (FP1, FP2 or FP3) in the test parameters (chapter 3.3). It is possible to select a freely
programmable test as photometrical test which can be run parallel to to mechanical tests.
Please ensure the correct input of the calculation formula (chapter 3.4 when programming the
test.
The measuring position activating key F1 is not activated for the photometrical measuring
position. The automatic measuring position reset has full function when this feature has been
adjusted accordingly in the settings menu.
