Hospitex Diagnostics Screen Master Touch – Service manual
The instrument should be located in a clean environment, placed on a stable surface, and away
from direct sunlight, which could affect the operating temperature and the quantity of light
measured by the instrument.
- Please check the setting of the power supply switch according to your country’s electrical
network.
- Connect the power plug to a good grounded AC wall outlet, preferably one that is not
shared with other electric appliances and with low fluctuation of line voltage compared to
the standard voltage specified (10-15%).
- Keep the instrument away from other appliances that generate high frequency electrical
noises (e.g. radiological instruments).
- Before connecting the power cord, check that the AC power supply corresponds to the value
that is stated on the instrument’s label.
5
Hospitex Diagnostics Screen Master Touch – Service manual
Caution
Do not connect the instrument to a power supply different from the value indicated on the label.
- Before connecting the power and finishing the installation section, make sure that the
instrument is turned off (check the polysnap located on the rear part of the instrument).
- Make sure that your AC main line has an efficient ground line. A bad ground line
connection may compromise analysis results and damage the instrument.
- After turning on the instrument, pay attention not to spill liquids or micro solid substances
on the surface around the instrument.
If the above procedures are carefully followed, you are now ready to TURN ON the
instrument by using the switch located on the rear panel.
Measurement block
Open the measurement block cover lid, positioned on the top left part of the instrument. Inside you
will see:
- Peristaltic pump that allows the solution to enter the instrument for measurement.
- Incubator well, which keeps the flow-cell or manual cuvette at the temperature of
approximately 37° C.
- Inlet tube.

Tube setting
Make sure that the transparent tube (the one that connects the flow-cell with the internal hydraulic
circuit) is not twisted or squashed.
Place the red tube around the peristaltic pump and make sure that the white plastic connections are
set as shown in the figure below:

Incubator
The incubator temperature is brought up to 37 °C by the software and it will remain constant until
the instrument is turned off.
NOTE: It is very important to heat the macro cuvettes to the proper temperature for obtaining the
most accurate analysis results.

4. READING ABS
Press the “READING ABS” message and the sub-menu will appear.
In this menu it is possible to read the Photocell amplifier energy, and to perform an Absorbance
reading.
Select Filter: The filter that operator want to set, use the right and left arrows to select:
(340nm 405nm, 505nm, 546nm, 578nm and 630nm)
Actual Filter: The filter currently placed under the light beam

Tension: The mVolt value present on the Photodiode preamp.
1. Select filter with arrows then press wheel icon, the desired filter will be placed under the
light beam
2. In order to obtain the Abs value make and aspiration with water and wait for
measurement.
3. Set the test tube of water (or other substances) in the inlet pipe and press the PUSH
button.
4. After a few seconds, continuous evolution of the ABS value will appear on the display.
5. Press 0 key to have zero on the current ABS value (water or other substances). You will

In “READING ABS” screen you can monitor (after having filled water) tension coming from
optical group (OPT TENS) and tension coming in A/D converter (A/D TENS) , using a particular
filter (FILTER)
Tension Mode Measurement is very useful to verify lamp calibration, filter / lamp / lens /
photodiode / preamp board quality, position sensor working.
Moreover in this screen you can test correct pump motion.
If you have a correct calibrated optical group, when you use the flow cell, the TENSION
values are between 250 mV (for 340 nm) and about 3.5 V (for 630 nm) for all filters.
Regulate trimmer R1 to obtain 3,5 V on the Tension menu (see picture bellow):
