Active Test List Window; Reagent Information Window - Siemens ADVIA 2400 Operator's Manual

This information is used by the Reagent Inventory window.
Perform any of the following tasks at this window:
•
set the reagent container type, lot number, and expiration date
•
start the Days Remaining counter for non-barcoded reagent containers
•
print the settings
•
clear the settings

Active Test List window*

Use the Active Test List window to temporarily deactivate a method, so that method-
related alarm messages (for example, missing reagents) are not generated. You would use
this function if, for example, for tests that you do not run every day.
After you make your selections, activating or deactivating a method, you must initialize
the system for the changes to take effect.
The Active Test List window displays all tests loaded on the system, but the deactivated
or unchecked tests are grayed out.
At the Active Test List window, you must select all the tests you expect to run. If
NOTE:
a test is not selected, the system skips that test. An error message does not display in the
Alarm message box on the Operation Panel, but is recorded in the error message log.
Active is checked if the test is active.
Test Name displays the name and number of the test.
R1 Pos No displays the position of R1 on the reagent tray.
R2 Pos No displays the position of R2 on the reagent tray.

Reagent Information window*

Use this window to review and edit reagent information, such as on-system stability,
calibration frequency, and fill volumes for barcoded reagents and to enter information for
non-barcoded reagents.
The Reagent Inventory and Reagent Container Set windows use this information.
