Status-Cycle Count

Introduction
Status-Cycle Count
Introduction
The Status-Cycle Count provides an approximation of an instrument's usage. This
information can be useful for estimating maintenance frequencies or anticipating
component failure. Cycle counts may be periodically collected by Beckman Coulter
using the instrument modem.

Counters
Each result for each cup is counted separately. Even if ORDAC
is triggered, the counter only increments for the one result.
A count of the number of samples run through the ISE module.
Whether it is a single chemistry per sample or a sample running
all five chemistries, the ISE cycle count will increment only
once per sample processed through the ISE module.
Each cartridge chemistry reagent dispensed is counted.
• This is the number of caps pierced by the blade(s).
• For 1-Blade Thick CTS, the system sets this counter to zero
when the blade is replaced. To replace the blade for 1-Blade
Thick CTS, refer to
The total number of caps pierced by the Cap Piercer Module.
The total number of sample containers that have been scanned
by a sample ID bar code reader.
