Note:
• If Patient ID entry is “Required”, and a patient ID was not entered during
the Calibrating phase, the Patient ID screen will display instead of the
Analyzing screen after sample injection. A patient ID must be entered
before results will display or print. Enter a patient ID and press
next to
advance to the Analyzing (or Results) screen.
• If the analysis completes before the patient ID is entered, a flashing
“ANALYSIS COMPLETE” message displays in the upper right corner
of the Patient ID screen. Results will not display or print until a Patient ID
is entered and
next is pressed. This screen cannot be bypassed; the only
way to exit this screen is to enter a Patient ID.
• If a Patient ID has not been entered (no results were displayed or printed),
and IRMA TruPoint powers-down, the test results may be viewed and
printed by recalling the result. If the test being recalled was the last
patient test performed on the analyzer, a patient ID can be entered upon
recall. Refer to Section 4-Recall Patient Results for instructions on
recalling last test result.
• If the test being recalled was not the last patient test performed on the
analyzer, the results can be viewed or printed, but a patient ID cannot be
entered. Refer to Section 4-Recall Patient Results for instructions on
recalling test results.
• A configuration option may have been selected by the QA User which
defines the minimum and maximum number of characters that must be
entered for a valid Patient ID. If the ID entered does not conform to the
defined ID length, an Invalid Length message will display. Enter a Patient
ID of acceptable length.
