Scanning Fluid Barcodes

After replacing any depleted fluid bottles in the Fluids Drawer, scan all of the bottles in the
drawer into the Lower Bay inventory. The barcode for each label codes the fluid type, lot
number, expiration date, and bottle-specific identifier.
Note: If all of the Lower Bay inventory procedures are not completed correctly, the system
will force the operator to re-scan all of the Lower Bay fluid barcodes before continuing.
To scan fluid barcodes into the system:
1. Using the hand-held barcode scanner in the Fluid Drawer, scan each bottle into inventory
in the following order:
a) Wash Solution B
b) Wash Solution A
c) Auto Detect 1 A
d) Auto Detect 1 B
e) Auto Detect 2 A
f) Auto Detect 2 B
g) Oil A
h) Oil B
i) System Fluid Preservative
j) Buffer for Deactivation Fluid
As each fluid is scanned into inventory, the field next to the fluid name is populated with
the barcode.
Caution: If bottles are not scanned in the correct order, two possible scenarios
may occur:
2. After scanning, make sure bottle placement is still correct (barcode alignment, seams,
etc.) and that all 12 fluid lines are securely connected.
Note: Do not click Inventory on the Load Fluids window until the waste containers
have been emptied. If the inventory validation is attempted before emptying the
waste, all of the fluids in the Fluid Drawer will have to be rescanned.
3. Leaving the Fluid Drawer open, continue on to emptying the Tiplet Waste container.

♦
If one fluid type, for example Wash Solution, is scanned into the field of
another fluid type, for example Auto Detect 1, the barcode will not be
accepted.
♦
If bottle B of a specific fluid is scanned into a bottle A barcode field, the wrong
information will be in the database which could result in a bottle running dry
unexpectedly, causing a system failure.
