If there is no printer attached, record the result be­
fore removing the cuvette from the measurement
well. When the cuvette is removed, the instrument
will again perform a self­test.
Performing self test
wait...
If the self­test is not successful, discard the
previous test result.
After a successful self­test the LCD will display:
Ready for use
<test> lot <lot>
With software version 6.1 or later the last meas­
urement will remain blinking on the LCD after
the self­test.
To begin a new test, begin with a new cuvette and
sample. If the instrument is not used for 80 minu­
tes it automatically moves to the "Read the card"
state. Continue by reading the magnetic card.
8 CALIBRATION
The instrument is factory calibrated. Proper
functioning of the instrument is checked by
the self­check procedure prior and after every
measurement. In case of malfunction, an error
message is displayed.
The calibration data defining the overall assay
curve or cut­off value for each kit is encoded on
a magnetic card. This information is transferred
to QuikRead 101 Instrument by passing the
magnetic card through the card reader on the
instrument.
