Explanation
The reaction has been measured successfully. The
instrument displays a running sample number with the
current date (in "yymmdd" format). The result is displayed
using the units and test name specified on the magnetic
card.
Result texts if the result is under or over the calibration
limit values specified on the magnetic card.
Result texts if the result is over (POSITIVE) or under
(NEGATIVE) the cut-off values specified on the mag-
netic card.
The cuvette has been removed from the measurement
well during blank or reaction measurement. The test is
cancelled.
The cuvette has been removed after the assay. The
instrument automatically performs a self-test.
If this message is displayed immediately after an
assay has been performed, please discard the test
result. If this message is displayed when the instrument
is turned on or during an assay, please contact your
local supplier.
If there is a cuvette in the measurement well during
power-up, the user is asked to remove it.
