The test will not proceed and a new card will be required. Incorrect 22 ul will be detected by the system as an insufficient sample volume. The test will not proceed and a new card will be required. Select the best answer. ? Question 3 of 10 When does the operator insert the test card into the Reader? After the operator has connected an epoc Reader to an epoc Host and automatic electronic QC and configuration are complete After the operator has connected an epoc Reader to an epoc Host and automatic electronic QC and configuration are complete After the operator has connected an epoc Reader to an epoc Host and automatic electronic QC and configuration are complete After the operator has added the sample Before the Host has connected to a Reader Multiple Choice Incorrect The Host must be connected to a Reader before inserting the test card. Incorrect The sample must be added after the card is inserted and sensor calibration is successfully completed. Correct Select the best answer. ? Question 4 of 10 When does the operator add the sample to the Test Card? After Test Card calibration is complete, the Test Status indicator turns solid green and the Host displays Inject Sample After Test Card calibration is complete, the Test Status indicator turns solid green and the Host displays Inject Sample After Test Card calibration is complete, the Test Status indicator turns solid green and the Host displays Inject Sample After removing the card from the pouch ensuring the Test Card is on a flat surface At any time Multiple Choice Incorrect If the sample is injected too early, the test will be aborted. Incorrect The sample should not be injected in a test card that is not properly inserted into the Reader. Correct Select the best answer. ? Question 5 of 10 Within what temperature range must the Test Cards be stored? Between 15-30 degrees Celsius (59-86 Farenheit) Between 15-30 degrees Celsius (59-86 Farenheit) Between 15-30 degrees Celsius (59-86 Fahrenheit) Between 5-20 degrees Celsius (41-68 Fahrenheit) Between 20-35 degrees Celsius (68-95 Fahrenheit) Multiple Choice Incorrect Test cards stored at this temperature range has an upper limit that is too high and this may impact the sensor performance. Incorrect Test cards stored at this temperature range has a lower limit that is too low and this may impact the sensor performance. Correct Select the best answer. ? Question 6 of 10 The sample should be added to the test card using the following technique: While maintaining downward pressure, use index finger of the other hand to steadily depress the syringe or capillary plunger with a single, smooth, continuous motion until prompted to stop with audible beep, green flashing light on reader, and sample acceptance on host Allow a large hanging drop to drip onto the sample port Push the syringe onto the sample entry port and using a quick, firm action, add the sample Multiple Choice Incorrect You do not use a quick, firm action in order to add the sample to the test card. Incorrect Samples cannot be added by using a hanging drop to drip onto the sample port. Correct Select the best answer. ? Question 7 of 10 How does the operator perform a soft reset on the NXS Host?
