Let’s look at each step of the sample processing sequence in detail by selecting the numbers below. audf_Atellica_SHC_SampleProcessing_Sim1.mp3 Before a sample container is processed by the system, the laboratory automation system, or LAS, provides the sample container barcode ID to the system. audf_Atellica_SHC_SampleProcessing_Sim2.mp3 The Sample Handler connect input robot can then transfer the sample to a carrier on the Atellica Magline Transport. audf_Atellica_SHC_SampleProcessing_Sim3.mp3 The system routes the carrier to the Sample Handler Connect Tube Characterization System, or TCS. The TCS is an integrated system of 3 cameras that reads the barcodes of the sample containers, and also determines the height and width of the sample containers. If the sample barcode read by the TCS matches the LAS input, then the system identifies the required tests and continues processing the sample. audf_Atellica_SHC_SampleProcessing_Sim4.mp3 The system determines the most efficient path to the applicable analyzer aspiration station and controls the Atellica Magline Transport to deliver the carrier and associated sample to the analyzer. audf_Atellica_SHC_SampleProcessing_Sim5.mp3 After aspirating all tests, the system returns the sample to the Sample Handler Connect. audf_Atellica_SHC_SampleProcessing_Sim6.mp3 And the Sample Handler Connect output robot transfers the sample to the LAS. During operation, the operator can simultaneously load and unload samples from the Sample Handler sample drawers while the system processes samples from the LAS. The Sample Handler can be used to load tube types that the LAS does not support such as tube top cups or capillary tubes. The Sample Handler Connect returns all LAS-routed samples back to the LAS. The operator removes all operator-loaded samples from the system through the Sample Handler racks and drawers: 6 The SHC output robotic arm transfers the sample to the LAS. During operation, the operator can simultaneously process samples from the Sample Handler sample drawers while the system processes samples from the LAS. The Sample Handler can be used to load tube types that the LAS does not support (i.e. tube top cups or capillary tubes). 5 After aspirating all tests, the system returns the sample to the SHC. 4 The Atellica Magline Transport delivers the sample to the analyzer(s) for aspiration. 3 The SHC tube characterization system checks the sample barcode to confirm it matches the LAS input. If the barcode information matches, the system identifies the required tests and continues processing the sample If the barcode information does not match, the system marks the sample as mismatched and the SHC output robot returns it to the LAS 2 The Atellica® Sample Handler Connect (SHC) input robotic arm transfers the sample from the LAS to a carrier on the Atellica Magline® Transport. 1 The Laboratory Automation System (LAS) provides the sample barcode ID to the system. ?

To open the front top cover, the operator must release the interlocks by selecting an unlock button in the software. When the cover is unlocked, the system removes power from the Sample Handler Connect (SHC) robots so they cannot move Input Robot: loads sample containers onto the SHC from the LAS Output Robot: returns sample containers to the LAS from the SHC Tube Characterization Station (TCS): an integrated system of 3 cameras that read the barcodes on the sample containers the SHC transfers from the LAS. The images obtained by the cameras determine the carrier ID of the Atellica Magline® Transport carrier holding the sample container, and the sample container barcode ID. The cameras also measure the height and width of the sample containers, and determine the center point of the sample container in the carrier Disclaimer Please note that the learning material is for training purposes only.

Assessment Slide Hardware Overview Hardware Overview audf_Atellica_SHC_HardwareOverview_Sim1.mp3 The Atellica Sample Handler Connect is a sample transfer unit that provides hardware for transferring routine and STAT samples between a connected Lab Automation System (or LAS) and an Atellica Sample Handler. The top cover of the Sample Handler Connect is controlled by a system of interlocks. To open the front top cover, the operator must release the interlocks by selecting an unlock button in the software. When the cover is unlocked, the system removes power from the Sample Handler Connect robots so they cannot move. Let’s look at the components that can be accessed when the top cover is open. Hardware Overview audf_Atellica_SHC_HardwareOverview_Sim2.mp3 The Sample Handler Connect uses a pair of robots to transfer sample containers between pucks on the connected LAS and the carriers on the Atellica Magline Transport. One robot is dedicated as the input robot to load sample containers onto the Sample Handler Connect from the LAS. The other robot is the output robot to return sample containers to the LAS from the Sample Handler Connect. Hardware Overview audf_Atellica_SHC_HardwareOverview_Sim3.mp3 This view shows a top-down view of the interior components. The Sample Handler Connect Tube Characterization Station, or TCS, is an integrated system of 3 cameras that read the barcodes on the sample containers the Sample Handler Connect transfers from the LAS. The images obtained by the cameras determine the carrier ID of the Atellica Magline Transport carrier holding the sample container, and the sample container barcode ID. The cameras also measure the height and width of the sample containers and determine the center point of the sample container in the carrier. Congratulations!
