7.1.1.Pill Counting – Function Description

asked to verify NDC codes before each counting transaction. Usually an RX label bar code is compared to the stock
bottle bar code. [Factory Default setting:

2.Drug Labeling – This function allows you to key in the actual name of the counted drug. The drug name is associated
with the NDC code which is stored in the scale’s database. Each time the drug is recalled from the database for
counting, the name of the drug along with the NDC code will be displayed. Drug name can be keyed in from the
scale’s keypad or through any PC keyboard which can be connected to the scale via the PS2 connector. [Factory

3.Drug Production LOT Entry – This feature allows you to key-in and assign each drug the actual production LOT
number. Assigning a lot number allows you to track database drug entries and update sample weights and sizes as
production lots change. Using this feature and updating drug weights improves counting accuracy and contributes to
proper database maintenance. [Factory Default setting:

4.Data Entry Reminder – This feature ensures that the database is always updated with current drug LOT information,
which is important for optimum counting accuracy. The data entry reminder feature reminds you to update drug data,
such as the average piece weight and sample size. The feature tracks NDC entries and displays a message reminding
you to update the database with new information if a pre-programmed amount of time has passed since the last entry.

6.Remaining to Fill - When performing a counting transaction, the remaining to fill feature assists in achieving cut off
at the proper pill count. When the feature is enabled, in addition to the displayed pill count, a remaining to fill
countdown is displayed. The display indicates how many more pills must be placed in the vial to achieve the desired
count, and indicates “0” at the target count. This feature helps to prevent overfilling. If too many pills are added, an
overfill indicator displays the number of pills that should be removed from the vial. [Factory Default setting:
