Error Recovery Procedures

Error Recovery Shutdown

The Error Recovery Shutdown procedure takes the LH 1500 system offline, stopping the command

of the Line Controller, interrupting LIS interfacing and powering off the automation line.

If possible, allow all specimens to complete analysis and arrive at appropriate positions on the

Outlet and Stockyard.

If possible, press PAUSE/RUN button on the Outlet Unit keypad. Verify all sample tube carriers

(pucks) stop behind the Outlet Unit and there are no moving sample tube carriers on the track.

Ensure all sample tubes are removed from the tracks and Connection Units.

NOTE

Once a specimen is scanned at the bar-code reader inside the Connection Unit, the Line Controller

assumes analysis is complete.

• During Error Recovery there may be unanalyzed specimens in a Connection Unit or on a

LH 750. Unanalyzed specimens must be analyzed by Secondary Analysis Mode or STAT-

CASS Mode after Error Recovery. If not, the unanalyzed specimens will route to the

Stockyard or Outlet if placed back on the LH 1500 System without being analyzed by the

LH 750.

• During Error Recovery specimens that have been analyzed by the LH 750, but not routed out

of the Connection Unit, can be placed back on the LH 1500 System and will be properly

routed to the Stockyard or Outlet.

At the Line Controller Main Menu screen Menu Bar, select System Operation > Shutdown. The

Shutdown screen appears. If Shutdown is desired, select

<OK>. To cancel Shutdown, select

<Cancel>, then Select <OK>.

The Shutdown Reminder screen appears. If Shutdown is desired, select <OK>. To cancel

Shutdown, select

<Cancel>, then Select <OK>.

Ensure that the System Status box is Ready.

Ensure that the Host Communication box is Offline.

NOTE

While the Host Communication box is Offline, the LIS interfacing will be interrupted. LIS operations

will be compromised. Do not allow the Host Communications to be Offline for extended periods.

Perform System Startup to reset Host Communication to Online and restore LIS interfacing.

The Shutdown in Progress screen appears briefly on the Main Menu screen.
