Enabling Parameter Selection At Analysis; Defining Custom Panels - Siemens Rapidlab 1200 Operator's Manual

Rapidlab 1200 Operator's Guide: System Configuration

Enabling Parameter Selection at Analysis

The Parameter Selection option allows you to turn selected parameters off at the
Analysis screen. For example, if blood gas and electrolyte parameters are selected
and you want to measure only blood gas parameters, you can turn all the
electrolytes off. The system then analyzes only the blood gas parameters for the
current sample.
By default, the Parameter Selection option is off. When the Parameter Selection
option is off, the system displays the parameter as available but it does not display
the parameter as a button and you cannot select it. This means you cannot turn
parameters off at the Analysis screen.
When you turn on the Parameter Selection option, the names of the parameters
display as buttons on the Analysis screen. You select the parameters to turn them
off or back on before analyzing a patient sample. After analysis, all available
parameters are turned on.

Defining Custom Panels

A custom panel contains a set of parameters that you define to meet your testing
needs. A custom panel allows you to select all the parameters you select for a test
with one touch. You can create up to 6 custom panels on the Rapidlab 1200
system. You can also select a default custom panel.
You can set up 6 custom panels for 6 different panels of tests.
You can select custom panels and a default custom panel for both normal samples
and microsamples.
NOTE:
in the
The Analysis screen displays the custom panels in the left lower corner of the
screen. Since the Analysis screen can display only 3 custom panels at a time, the
system divides the panels into 2 sets of 3 each. At the Analysis screen, you can
select and display set 1 or set 2 but not both sets. Consequently, if you define
custom panels that could be used together, ensure you define them within the
same set.
NOTE:
the set selection buttons at the Analysis screen. If you do not select any
parameters for a panel button, the system does not display the panel button at the
Analysis screen
The Analysis screen only displays custom panels after you define panels
screens.
