6.3.4 FLUSH IN PROGRESS Screen
The FLUSH IN PROGRESS Screen indicates the device is
flushing. This occurs automatically after a sample test
WARNING is detected to wash out any residual compound
before inserting a new Swab. This screen will also be displayed
after the User initiates a manual flush from the Settings Screen.
The device flush is complete when the progress bar is full: at
this point the screen will display the INSERT SWAB screen for
the next test sample.
A manual flush can be initiated from the Settings Screen
by pressing the Flush button .
This can be a useful troubleshooting tool if the device is experiencing errors.
Refer to Section 10 Troubleshooting for further guidance.
6.4 False Positives
If the device is unable to determine the result of a sample test the User will be displayed the PASS result screen
followed by a flush. This can occur for several reasons and may require the User to re-run a sample test. If the PASS-
>FLUSH result reoccurs frequently the device may need to be serviced.
A “PLEASE WAIT…” prompt will be displayed initially after the test has been run. The Graph button will show the
User the Electropherogram for the previously run sample test. While on the Electropherogram page the User can use
the Back button to return to the PASS Screen. Once the PROCEED button is displayed it can be used to commence
a device flush to prepare for a new sample test. This will return the User to the INSERT SWAB Screen.
6.5 Saving Results as a PDF
The Save PDF button located on the home screen allows the User to generate a PDF report for the sample test just
performed. This will export that run’s result sample test as a PDF and CSV file onto a USB memory stick or
downloaded if the device is connected to the internet.
To generate a PDF report, insert a USB flash drive into the device’s USB input. Navigate to the Settings Screen and
press the Save PDF button. A PDF report will be generated with data from the last scan. Once the Save PDF button
has been pressed it will turn grey indicating the system has begun to export the data file. Following a successful
export, the Save PDF button will display a green tick. If the Save PDF button displays a red cross the export has
been unsuccessful. Check to ensure the USB flash drive is fully inserted into the USB input and retry the export
procedure. An example of a PDF report is illustrated in Figure 27.
NOTE: FOLLOWING A SAMPLE TEST WARNING, THE DEVICE WILL AUTOMATICALLY RUN
A BLANK SAMPLE TO REMOVE ANY CONTAMINATION BEFORE A NEW SAMPLE CAN BE
RUN. WHILE THIS IS OCCURING THE USER WILL SEE THE FLUSH IN PROGRESS SCREEN.
