Note
On systems that use a rack reader and MTPs, confirm that host communication is
running. If host communication is interrupted (host timeout message or host
communication error message), contact your network administrator. If the problem
persists, contact your Beckman Coulter representative.
Important
Use MTPs with bar code labels in automatic mode. The rack reader detects MTP IDs
when a drawer is closed.
