CAUTION CAUTION
While the system is aspirating samples from the universal rack handler, you may receive a 6205 error. When this occurs, the DPP will stop. When the system completes its analysis of the samples in progress, restart the analyzer and the universal rack handler.
On the Menu panel, select Request, then select Test Result Monitor.
On the Test Result Monitor window, monitor the run:
Sample information and system status
When the run is completed, the operating mode display becomes STOP. Select Exit to close the window.
The center of the window resembles the sample tray. The outer ring is the STT tray; the inner ring is the CTT tray. Each tray position is a circle.
As the run continues, the circles containing samples change color. The colors indicate the current status of each sample. The color codes are displayed at the lower left of the window.
Additional information about the color codes
The button bar at the top of the window displays the Sample Search and Rack or LAS. Sample Info. buttons.
· Select the Sample Search button to display a dialog box where you can search for sample information by sample number by STT position (tray number and sample position), or by Rack/LAS position (rack number and sample position).
The search returns a Sample Information window showing the sample number, position number, sample status, and the time remaining to complete the analysis of the sample.
· If a rack handler or laboratory automation system (LAS) is in use, select the Rack or LAS. Sample Info. button to display the following sample information in the Rack or LAS. Sample Information window:
w Sample number.
w Sample status (see the status codes listed on the Test Result Monitor window).
w The time remaining to complete the processing of the sample.
NOTE
If processing has completed or if there are no samples available for processing when you select the Rack or LAS. Sample Info. button, the system displays a message that no sample information is available.
The left side of the Test Result Monitor window displays three panels.
· The System Status panel shows the current operating mode of the system.
· The Sample information panel shows the sample number and sample position of the currently selected position on the STT/CTT graphic. If this is a barcode analysis, the barcode number displays, and the position number is 00-00.
· The code panel shows the color codes used in the STT/CTT graphic to represent sample status.
In the middle of the sample tray display, the tray (TT) number for the current run displays in the TT No. list box. If this is a barcode analysis, the TT number is 0.
To view the status of prior tray samples that are still in process, select the down arrow of the TT No. list box, then select the number of the tray you want to view.
The right side displays result data for the sample that has just been processed. When the next sample is processed, its data appears.
NOTE
Some results may not display because of limits in the display area.
· Each sample is identified by sample number, tray and position number, sample type, and dilution factor.
· The tests performed are listed with their result values.
· A result may indicate that a special circumstance was found. For example, if sufficient sample was not available, the "s" mark appears in the results.
