To program the Orange rack for repeat analysis on the Beckman Coulter AU5800:

- If using Sequential analysis:
Place samples in numeric order based on the repeat run requisition. Do not leave empty spaces in the rack.

- If using Barcode analysis:
Place samples in any position in the rack.

No specific programming steps are required beyond correct sample placement based on the analysis method.
