It is important to check your reagents before processing samples. Check usable volume Check number of tests Check elapsed time Verify Reagents Learn about checking the reagent's availability Instructions:If media does not automatically start, select the play arrow to begin.Flash File:/content/generator/Course_90014493/sim_CS25_CheckReagents_9/sim_CS25_CheckReagents_9.swfHTML5 File:/content/generator/Course_90014493/sim_CS25_CheckReagents_9/index.htmlPDF File: Select each tab to learn about common errors encountered during sample processing. Indicator of an Error: Audible alarm and IPU displays Error Help dialog box Probable Cause The sample volume is insufficient The sample is not set in rack The sample adheres to the back of the tube cap The liquid surface sensor has failed Corrective Action Check the sample volume Verify sample is not adhered on the back of tube cap Set the sample with the required volume in sample rack and reanalyze If errors persists, contact Siemens Technical Solutions Center   Indicator of Error: Sample No displays as ERR00000000 on Joblist Probable cause The anti-rotation holder is damaged or not attached The barcode label is dirty Corrective action Verify the sample barcode label is correctly placed in rack Check the condition of the barcode label Check the results on the joblist and reanalyze sample If error persists contact Siemens Technical Solutions Center   Indicator of Error: Audible alarm and IPU displays Error Help dialog box Probable cause The rack barcode label is dirty The rack barcode label does not meet specification The rack barcode label is not affixed or has peeled off The sample barcode scanner has failed or is dirty Corrective action Check the sample rack barcode label Check the analysis order in the joblist If errors persists, contact Siemens Technical Solutions Center  Select ► to continue.
