Performing Tests
Periodically you may need to run tests on the DCA Vantage system.
NOTE:
You cannot use the external barcode reader to initiate tests.
Optical Test
The DCA Vantage system is designed to run a comprehensive series of self
checks of the optical measurement system. These self checks are run
automatically during every patient and Quality Control sample measurement.
If any of the measurement criteria are out of specification, the system displays
an error code and no result is given for that measurement.
In addition to the automatic self checks performed during every sample and
Quality Control measurement, an optical test cartridge is available for you to
run additional system performance checks before calling your local service
provider for assistance. The main purpose of this test cartridge is to help you
eliminate system hardware issues if errors are reported during sample and
Quality Control measurements.
Use the optical test cartridge:
