turns off provided that a mandatory Comment Code prompt is not displayed.
This Inactivity Time Out default time can be increased using Customization.
If a mandatory Comment Code prompt is displayed, the analyzer will turn
off after 15 minutes or after the Inactivity Time Out, whichever is greater. In
the case of a missed required Comment Code, results will be stored and “_
_ _” will be entered as the Comment Code.
Prompting for mandatory data when results are ready for display:
The analyzer will turn off after 15 minutes or after the Inactivity Time Out,
whichever is greater, if there is no response to a mandatory data prompt.
A mandatory data prompt is a prompt for information that must be entered
before pending results are displayed.
In the case of a missed mandatory data prompt, results will not be stored
and the test record will state “Test Cancelled by Operator.”
Waiting for insertion of cartridge: After the prompt “Insert Cartridge”
is displayed, the analyzer will wait 15 minutes for the operator to insert a
cartridge unless the analyzer is in the Proficiency path, in which case the
analyzer will wait 5 minutes. If a cartridge is not inserted, the analyzer will
turn off. This timeout cannot be customized.
Other: The analyzer will turn off after 2 minutes of inactivity (no keys pressed)
in all other circumstances.
Test results, operator prompts and other messages are displayed on the analyzer’s
LCD Screen. The backlight for the display is turned on and off by pressing the 0
key for one second. The backlight will automatically turn off after ninety seconds
and when the analyzer powers down or is turned off. The backlight cannot be
