operating the device.
Maintenance
The device should be subjected to yearly inspections and
WARNING! servicing. It is recommended that you make a service
contract. Maintenance and repairs to the device can only be
carried out by EKF-diagnostic GmbH or other services
authorised by EKF. Further instructions on servicing can be
found in pt. 13, p.37.

After each sensor change the device requires a period of time for sensor
conditioning. This time is shown in the display and counts down. During this
time the device is not ready for measuring.
• Insert the capillary into a pre-filled micro test tube, close it securely
and shake it approx. 10 times. The capillary must be fully emptied
and the hemolysis solution must have coloured it evenly, see
Figure 15. The sample can now be measured.
When opening or closing the micro test tube make sure that
you do not splash or spill any of the solution. The result would
WARNING! be an incorrect measurement.

• The gap between the barcode and the upper edge of the sheet
must be at least 7mm.
• The gap between the barcode and the lower edge of the sheet
must be at least 4 mm.
• The barcode must be at least 12mm wide.
• The label dimensions must not exceed 35 x 30.

Status text: Describes the current state of the device. (e.g. ready, in
calibration, in Stand-by etc.)
Advice text: This field is normally empty. When required it is used to
display messages
(e.g. surrounding temperature too high, etc.)
This display window is the ready window of the device. From here all of the
device‘s functions can be accessed.
The message "with calibration" can vary depending on the
calibration mode selected.

Tray no.:
The current tray number, this is raised by 1 every time measurement starts.
This can be pre-allocated in the menu, and is automatically set to 1 with
every cold start or change of date (at midnight).
Tray position:
This is always 1 for sample measurements. In calibration or controls /
STAT the corresponding position is displayed.
Measurement channel 1:
This displays the results for the parameter in measurement channel 1 (in
the example above this was the glucose measurement).
"+" or "-" next to the unit designates a value higher or lower than the
warning limits set. In the example above the glucose measurement
exceeds the upper warning limit (this can be set under the “Warning limits“
menu option).
"+++" or "---" instead of a value indicates a value higher or lower than the
measurement range (see technical data, pt. 15–p.43).
Barcode (optional):
Gives the barcode read for this sample position.
7.3. Controls
In principle control samples can be measured in any position (apart from
standard positions). However, internal device handling is set for the
positions C1 and C2.
Measurement of controls:
8. Memory
The memory can be called up in the states “Ready” and “Measurement”.
The following figure shows the "Memory" window.
Figure 20
The information displayed is identical with pt. 7.2 – p. 23, and is explained
there. The following provides some further details.
9. Info Menu
The Info Menu contains 4 windows which can be reached via the
arrow keys and which contain important information about the
device in a brief format.
10. Menu
The Menu can be called up at any time, apart from in the
measurement state (see pt. 7.1 – p. 22). All settings are retained
in the event of a power cut.
10.1. Stand-by
The device is put into Stand-by mode. The device can be activated again
with the warm start button (pt 5.1, p. 11_ff).
10.2. Numbering
• "By starting"
A calibration takes place first before every measurement. Controls
set are measured and evaluated. This also applies to STAT
measurements. In the "Ready" window the following is always
displayed:
"Ready with calibration"
• "Periodic"
The device calibrates itself automatically every 60 min. At
measurement start the samples (including STAT) are measured
immediately. In the Ready to measure window the following is
displayed: "Ready calibration in xx min", where xx
stands for the time until the next automatic calibration. If the
calibration time runs out while samples are still being measured,
the sample measurement is interrupted, calibration is executed
and the sample measurement continues (after successful
calibration). If a calibration was not successful (e.g. empty
standard micro test tube), an error message appears (this needs to
be confirmed) and the device changes to the ready to measure
state.
The display now shows
"Ready with new calibration".
At measurement start a calibration now takes place.
• "Time account"
The device is ready to measure for 60 minutes after a calibration.
After measurement start the samples (including STAT) are
measured straight away. In the Ready to measure window the
following is displayed:
"Ready xx min without calibration ".
Once the 60 min have elapsed calibration does not take place
automatically. The “Ready” window displays "Ready with
calibration". At the next measuring start a calibration takes
place again.
10.3.3. Units
The unit desired can be selected separately for each measuring channel.
10.4.1. Samples
Setting of warning limits for sample measurements, for both measuring
channels. The range in which the sample measurements are expected to
fall can be entered via the upper and lower limits. If the sample
measurements are above or below this limits, a "-" or "+" is displayed
next to the value displayed.
The limits which can be set are as follows:
glucose 0,5mmol/l ( 9mg/dl ) – 50mmol/l ( 900mg/dl )
lactate 0,5mmol/l ( 9mg/dl ) – 40mmol/l ( 720mg/dl )
10.4.2. Control 1
Here the special position C1 is evaluated, otherwise the procedure is
identical to pt.10.4.1. The upper/lower limits must agree with the permitted
limits of the control material used.
10.4.3. Control 2
Here the special position C2 is evaluated, otherwise the procedure is
identical to pt.10.4.1. The upper/lower limits must agree with the permitted
limits of the control material used.
10.7. EDP
This menu option contains all relevant parameters for connecting the
device with the hospital computers. Changes should only be made by
informed personnel.
Possible preambles:
{CR}, {CR LF}, {STX}, {STX CR}, {STX CR LF}, {STX DEL}
Possible postambles:
{CR}, {CR LF}, {ETX}, {CR ETX}, {CR LF ETX}, {DEL ETX}
10.9. Barcode
The barcode can be activated or deactivated. The barcode length used is
also adjustable. For reliable barcode recognition the barcode length used
must be set correctly. The length can be adjusted between 0 and 12, where
0 corresponds to a setting with variable barcode length (this setting is not
recommended).
• "Complete"
Here the complete array of menu items is available.
• "Routine"
For the sake of easier handling in daily routine, the following
greatly-reduced Menu is offered:
"Stand-by" (see pt. 10.1 – p. 26)
"Numbering" (see pt. 10.2–p.26)
"Warning limits" (see pt. 10.4– p.28)
"Menu type" (see pt. 10.11 – p. 32)
10.12. Extras
10.12.2. Histories
Here the device writes down important internal events of the most recent
weeks of operation. You can navigate using the arrow keys.
• "Calibration"
All calibration measurements of the last 4 – 8 weeks are listed
according the following scheme:
"Date – Time – Channel 1 – Channel 2"
• "Error"
All errors of the last 4 – 8 weeks are listed according to the
following scheme:
"Date – Time – Error code"
The error code is only of importance for service personnel.
• "Barcode test"
A test is carried out to determine whether the device can correctly
read the barcodes used, and whether barcode stickers have been
stuck on the sample tubes correctly (see pt. 6.6.3 – p. 21).
For this the sample tube is put into the sample position and the test
is commenced. Further directions appear in the display.
