General information
Current rev. 4.X hard disks are produced by a different manufacturer (Fujitsu). New
touch screen/PC units produced with a current rev. 4.X hard disk are labeled with a
green dot (sticker) containing the letter "F". The capacity of the current rev. 4.X hard
disk is 40 GB. As a difference to the other versions the hard disk LED on front of the
touch screen/PC unit will be lit when there is no disk access with Hitachi hard disks
and remains dark when there is disk access. This is the normal operation.
Fill level determination
Time to change The time to change is estimated based on the installation date (start date) of solutions
and packs as well as the sample and calibration throughput of the last 14 days. When
having low sample throughput the time to change can be limited by the on board
time.
On board time The on-board time for solutions and packs is 42 days starting from software version
5.00 (28 days for earlier software versions).
