In the event of prolonged storage, the analyser performance must be checked. The unpacking, installation and initial qualification of the analyser must only be carried out by a qualified IDS representative. After installation by Technical Services or an IDS representative, do not handle or move the analyser.
Maximum power consumed 750 VA. • If necessary, the installation of a regulated electrical supply may be required by IDS Technical Services. In order to ensure the analyser’s electrical safety (in accordance with standards), it is essential to check that the analyser and its associated peripheral computer equipment (external printer and computer) are properly earthed.
The acridinium esters emit light after reacting with hydrogen peroxide and an alkaline solution. IDS-iSYS Trigger A contains hydrogen peroxide in a dilute acid medium, and IDS-iSYS Trigger B contains a solution of dilute sodium hydroxide. The analyser automatically injects trigger solutions A and B into the reaction cuvette, which results in the oxidation of the ester into an excited form.
Subsequent calibrations must be repeated regularly in accordance with each assay’s instructions for use or as prompted by the analyser. Operating principle 1-5 IDS-iSYS User Manual - Revision M1 Software version V 14...
Requests for calibrations and controls can be made at any time. If the analyser is in the process of carrying out the assay, the calibrations and controls take place prior to the analyses requested on the samples. Operating principle 1-5 IDS-iSYS User Manual - Revision M1 Software version V 14...
To ensure that the cuvette loader functions correctly, only use full cubes of cuvettes. Never install isolated • layers in the loader. In the event of maintenance or an intervention by IDS Service & Support Personnel, the analyser and its • various components must first be cleaned and decontaminated as defined in the Maintenance section (see Section 5).

This block represents a request for information whose origin now can only be the IDS-iSYS. This request will be used by the IDS-iSYS after discovering a tube for a patient whose profile is known on the work list in order to request the tests to be carried out on this tube.

When a new SID is detected on IDS-iSYS (barcode reading or keyboard entry), IDS-iSYS examines the work • list first of all. If the associated profile is not in the work list, IDS-iSYS sends a request to the LIS. The LIS must send a • message in answer to each request.
