DiaSpect Tm User Manual

6.4 Quality Control

The DiaSpect Tm system is factory calibrated and requires no further calibration.
The DiaSpect Tm analyzer will perform an automatic self-check after each
measurement. Passing the self-check verifies the measurement performance and
is indicated by a check-mark. An error code is displayed if the self-check fails and
the analyzer will cease measuring, so there is no risk of an incorrect result being
displayed.
DiaSpect Controls HBT are available to facilitate compliance with local, state
and/or federal regulations or accreditation requirements.
Run the controls as described in section 7.3. Control values must fall within the
ranges stated on the vial labels. If controls are not in range, repeat with a new
cuvette. If values are still out of range, contact Technical Support at
1-800-531-5535.

6.5 Disposal

Dispose of used cuvettes in a container for potentially infectious waste. Consult
local environmental authorities for adequate disposal.
