Selecting Measuring Mode

The COMBILYZER Plus can be operated in two different modes:
- In Timer mode, the instrument waits for the strip to incubate for 60 seconds
before it reads the first pad. In this case, incubation is controlled by the
instrument.
- In Fast mode, the test strip is measured directly after Start is pressed. In this
case it is up to the user to time the incubation period outside the analyzer.
- In the Menu/Service/Mode submenu it is possible to toggle between Fast
mode and Timer mode.
Warning! When performing serial measurements in Fast mode, allow the strips
to react for approximately 55 seconds before inserting them into the
COMBILYZER Plus and pressing Start. If the reaction ( incubation ) time is too
short or too high false results my be obtained. Refer also to the package insert of
the COMBINA 11S test strips.

Setting Patient ID for Measurement

A measurement can be identified by assigning a Patient ID to it. The Patient ID
can be entered before starting the corresponding measurement, or it is also
possible to enter the Patient ID later in the Memory submenus (see chapter
4.6.3. for details). To assign a Patient ID for the upcoming measurement, press
the Set ID button in the Meas submenu. Use the key pad displayed on LCD to
type in the Patient ID and store it by pressing the OK button. The results of the
measurement will be stored under the Patient ID.
