This will allow you to select either of the following two functions:
•
Single Bottle mode: In Single Bottle mode, each bottle is managed as a
separate entity, therefore, each bottle will have a defined limit usage and
will be defined by the specific type of reagent it contains. In this mode, the
number that identifies the physical position of the bottle in the processor
always corresponds with the program step number. It is important to
understand this operation of the processor and of the
RMS . Unlike the
Group Mode, in the Single Bottle Mode the program step # and the
identification # of the bottle are the same, plus, the reagent is identified by
its specific name (i.e. 70% alcohol, xylene, etc.).
•
Group mode: The intent of the Group mode is to automate the reagent
management process that is performed manually in many laboratories.
The physical shifting of the bottles by the operator is
not necessary
because the ATP™ automatically changes the order of use of the bottles
in relation to the prior usage of the reagent. In the Group mode, reagent
bottles are managed as a group based on the type of reagent contained in
the bottles.
The RMS automatically keeps track of the number of processes performed
and the total number of cassettes processed. Changing the RMS mode
will reset the counter to zero, therefore, it is recommended that all
reagents are replaced prior to changing the RMS mode.
