Please note :
The C: drive of the Panel PC is write-protected. Any installation or modification requires an unset
of the write-protection. Otherwise the modification gets lost after the next reboot.
The write-protection has to be set again after each installation or modification. This requires a re-
boot of the system. Please refer to chapters 3.1 and 3.2.
Please note:
Correct functioning of the cobas e 411 analyzer can only be guaranteed, if the analyzer is set-
up strictly according to the instructions in this manual. Any deviation from this may cause un-
expected analyzer behavior.

6 Instrument Software installation
After the installation of new software version 02-03 the following steps have to be performed
• Host Communication in Elecsys mode now, define all tests in “Host Test Code Setting”
• Re-definition of the deleted profiles (Utility-System-Profile Setting)
• Re-definition of the deleted Calculated Tests (Utility-Calc. Test)
It is recommended to perform a backup of already existing data files, before performing the
installation of the new software version and initialization of the data base.
As the data base initialization also deletes any previously performed calibration, the Initial BlankCell
calibration need to be repeated.
If this is a complete new installation then the Reference Files were updated to the latest version when
Initialize Database was selected. If you update the software version and the database is kept, you
MUST read in the latest version of the Reference Files as they are not updated automatically. New rea-
gents will be launched in the near future which require the new Reference File version f.e. 402 (means
version no. 4.02).
