Overview
The ADVIA 2120/2120i Hematology System consists of two main components:
the computer and the analyzer. Although there is a main power switch for the
system, you must also turn each component on and off individually.
If you log on using a supervisor name and password, the system opens
the ADVIA 2120/2120i Shell.
3. Turn on the analyzer.
IMPORTANT
When you restart the analyzer, make sure that at least 60 seconds have
passed since you turned it off.
a. Select On at the analyzer touchpad.
b. When the computer finishes loading the software, it displays the Log
On / Off tab. A message on the status line indicates system preparation is

NOTE
If any of the internal diagnostic checks fail, the system displays an error
message on the status line. Turn off the system, wait 60 seconds, and
then restart it. If the error recurs, call your Service Representative.
c. The system automatically opens the Startup tab. Review the status of the
Startup process.
IMPORTANT
2-3
To ensure good system performance, turn the computer off at least once a week.
You must follow the proper procedure when shutting down the ADVIA
2120/2120i Hematology System. Failure to do so can result in corruption of the
database.
When you turn off the analyzer in an emergency, it is unable to drain some lines
as it would normally. As a result, when you restart the system, you should
perform a System Wash, using the Hydraulic Functions tab on the Utilities menu,
before running samples.

All products or objects that come in contact with human or animal body fluids should be
handled, before and after cleaning, as if capable of transmitting infectious diseases. Wear
facial protection, gloves, and protective clothing.
The operator should follow the recommendations to prevent the transmission of
infectious agents in health-care settings as recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory
Standards Institute (formerly NCCLS) in Protection of Laboratory Workers from
Occupationally Acquired Infections; Approved Guideline - Third Edition. 2005. CLSI
Document M29-A3. This document contains complete information on user protection and
it can be used as reference material for instructions on laboratory safety.
WARNING: Local laws and regulations protect the environment and encourage resource
conservation by regulating the disposal of hazardous wastes. Because some of the wastes
generated by the analyzer may be classified as hazardous waste, you must be familiar
with the applicable hazardous waste handling and disposal laws and regulations in your
area.
All analyzer waste is stored in an 11-liter waste container. When the fluid level in
the container reaches the Maximum Level line (approximately 8 liters), an
error message appears on the monitor and an audible alarm is sounded. The
system will not aspirate any more samples until the waste container is emptied.
Manual Waste Removal
CAUTION: Make sure all cycles are completed before disconnecting the waste container.
The waste container must be connected to the system when any system cycles are in
progress, including the system startup cycle. If the waste container is not connected, fluid
will back up into the UFC and damage the system.
5. Replace the full container with an empty one and connect the waste and
vacuum lines and level sensor to the new container.
CAUTION: Do not open the waste container cap! If the cap is loosened or not replaced

6. Empty the full container by opening the spigot (5) into a drain that is capable
of accommodating a flow rate of approximately five liters per minute. Total
drainage time will be about two and a half minutes.
7. When the waste container is empty, close the spigot and store the container
for future use.
IMPORTANT: Make sure that the spigot is closed securely; otherwise, sufficient
operating vacuum may not be reached.
draining, disconnect the level-switch sensor. Sample aspiration during waste removal
may damage the analyzer.
4. At the waste removal assembly tray, turn the mode selector knob (2) from
NORMAL to EMPTY.
5. The waste in the container should start to empty. It will take between two and
five minutes to completely empty the container. When you see air bubbles in
the discharge line (3), the container is empty.

a. Insert tube into rack with the barcode label visible above the rack
barcode label that indicates the rack number and sample position. Do not
twist tube within rack.
b. Load rack onto input queue with labels facing front of analyzer.
2. If the Standby indicator is lit, press Standby.
3. At the touchpad, select Start/Stop Sampler.
The Start and Rack in Sampler indicators are lit.
4. Evaluate control results or validate patient results when available.
To run samples from the manual closed-tube sampler:
3. Scan the tube label or enter the sample information in the Manual Sample ID
tab.
IMPORTANT: Make sure the correct sample ID appears on the status line before
aspirating a sample using either the manual open-tube sampler or the manual
closed-tube sampler. Waiting displays on the status line while the system searches
for a matching workorder.
Make sure the correct sample selectivity appears on the status line. If you run a
control with a mismatched selectivity (Example: running a CBC/Diff control with
a Retic selectivity), the results will not appear in the Review /Edit tab and, in
some cases, the system computer may require a restart.
4. Aspirate the sample.
a. Insert and push down tube containing the well-mixed sample into the
manual closed-tube sampler. Hold tube parallel to the sampler well wall.
b. Sample is automatically aspirated the sampling light flashes.
c. When the sampling light stops flashing, remove the tube.
