Designating Reflex Tests During Sample Rack Loading

To designate specimens for reflex testing during Sample Rack loading:
1. Load a Sample Rack containing specimens with test orders of the configured
screening assay (assay type found in the Assay column of the Reflex Testing
Configuration screen). If running in batch loading mode, skip Step 2.
In batch loading mode, the screen transitions to the Sample Rack Loading
screen. In random access mode (LIS), specimens that meet the above criteria
are labeled with an "R." Do not close the Sample Bay Door when designating
reflex tests during loading in batch loading mode.
2. If running in random access mode (LIS), select a rack containing specimens with
the "R" notation and then select Rack Details.
3. From the Sample Rack Loading screen, if designating all specimens for reflex
testing, select Reflex All and skip to Step 9. Otherwise, continue to Step 4.
4. If no specimens are to be designated for reflex testing, select Accept Rack.
Otherwise, continue to Step 6.
5. Select the Reflex Assay field to choose the reflex assay for the specimen of
interest.
The Reflex Assay Selection window opens.

testing.
