Brief description
In the end of August 2017 software version 2.5.0h will be available. The new software will include a lot of
new features as well as bug fixing. Together with the software we will issue a new setting database
version 4.0. The setting update is not compatible with the old software 1.9.0. It is mandatory to update the
software to 2.5.0h in order to use the new settings version 4.0.
A. Setting update
Compared to the previous database following settings have been changed:
alpha-AMYLASE liquicolor : Calibration stability 21 days
auto-BILIRUBIN-D liquicolor : Calibration stability 7 days; Concentration limit high 6.0 mg/dl
auto-CREATININE liquicolor : Calibration stability 7 days; Interfering method HbA1c-2
CHOLESTEROL liquicolor (LCF) : Concentration limit high 1100 mg/dl
CRP : Calibration stability 14 days
CYSTATIN-C liquidiret : Calibration stability 28 days
GLUCOSE Iiquicolor : Concentration limit low 2 mg/dl
GOT (ASAT) IFCC mod. liquiUV : Concentration limit high 600 U/l
HbA1c liquidirect : Concentration limit low/high 15/140 mmol/mol
HDL CHOLESTEROL liquicolor : Calibration stability 28 days; On board stability 25 days;
Concentration limit high 150 mg/dl
IMMUNOGLOBULIN IgA direct : Calibration stability 14 days
IMMUNOGLOBULIN IgM direct : Calibration stability 21 days
IRON TPTZ liquicolor : Calibration stability 14 days
LIPASE liquicolor : Concentration limit low 5 U/l
MICROALBUMIN : Calibration stability 30 days
TOTAL PROTEIN Iiquicolor : Calibration stability 28 days
UREA liquiUV : Calibration stability 14 days; Concentration limit high 350 mg/dl
URIC ACID liquicolorplus : Calibration stability 30 days; Concentration limit low 1 mg/dl
RHEUMATOID FACTORS : Calibration stability 21 days
Total Iron Binding Capacity : New calculated test
1. Methods:
a. Smaller Kit Sizes for Reagents available
For the following tests the setup in the Database is made
for two different kit sizes.
The kits will be available to order in the end of September 2017.
In the end of the year more tests will be added.
d. Units
The software allows the definition of a method without a Unit.
e. Predilution
The sample pre dilution can be applied to calibrator and QC
g. Negative Results display/report: If the lower concentration limit is set to zero and no repeat run
is activated, all negative results will reported as zero
c. The number of default replicas for the Reagent Blank can be changed.
3. QC Menu:
a. QC Statistic Levey Jennings graph display and printout:
- SD was added to the left axis and values/ unit was added to the right axis
- The In-Range (min/max) zone is displayed green
- CV is rounded with 2 decimal position
- results out of concentration validity limits are not taken into calculation of statistics or shown in
the graph
- Date and point number was added to the printout
c. QC Set
- Lot number is mandatory
- Expected mean was added
- changes in limits are applied to already tun tests for the corresponding QC Set and Lot number
- Copy function was implemented to create a new Qc set using an existing set
4. Main Screen
a. Estimated time to finalize sample processing was added.
b. An Eventlog for the system and ISE are added to the main screen. The current operation status
will be displayed such as Initialization, Warming up, Tip cleaning, Cuvette Blank, Cuvette Check,
Cuvette Washing, Intensive Cuvette Cleaning, System Flush, Photometer Calibration Clot
Calibration and Intensive Washer Cleaning.
b. In the sample menu a manual dilution factor can be programmed. The result will be
automatically corrected by the factor.
c. The dilution date and time is added to the detail screen on the Test Done menu.
e. Function to remove all samples from a tray was added to the sample tray menu.
6. Calibration Menu
a. The Lot number was added to the calibration set and traced up to the sample result.
b. Time of calibration curve creation was added to the date in the Calibration In Use menu.
c. Calibration Set menu a Diluted from concentrate was added. The new option allows
performing a pre dilution of the standards with user defined dilution rates.
2
d. Mean Error between the concentrations and the calculated concentrations and the R was
added to the Calibration menu.
e. An expiration date was added to the calibration set. It is not possible anymore to run a
calibration with an expired calibration set.
7. Maintenance
a. Maintenance Scheduler
The user can program a remainder for all maintenance task.
c. In the reaction tray menu, cuvettes which failed the water blank are displayed black and
strikeout with a yellow line.
d. Photometer Calibration
The change of cuvette 1 is not necessary anymore, due of the cuvette water blank
d. Database
A shrink procedure of the database remove empty fields and will re-index the database to increase
the performance.
e. LIS
- To handle samples with priority a new field has been implemented to the LIS protocol. The field
needs to contain an S.
- Individual test results can be transmitted using the Test Done menu.
- Time stamp is added to the ErrorsLog communication
f. Debug
The debug section is now available for the SuperVisor of the Lab. It allows deactivating important
checks. If they do so they have to take the responsibility for it.
9. User Manual
According to the new features the user manual has been updated. All chapters have been revised
to improve the usability for the end user.
