CAUTION
You must not modify the order of the tests on the System Test List window after initial setup. To avoid incorrect positioning of results on the print report, tests on the Daily QC window must be in the same order as they appear in the System Test List and Process Sequence windows. If you reposition any tests on the System Test List window, results for samples already run could be associated with the wrong test name.
Note
The maximum number of results displayed in the Daily Precision Control window is 200. When this number is reached, the system deletes the results starting from the first entry and adds new results after the latest entry. The system does not display a message that the maximum number of results was reached.
At the Menu Panel, select QC, then select Daily Precision Control.
Perform any of the following tasks on this window:
