for the User to run a patient test.

Logging in as Supervisor
The Supervisor Menu allows the supervisor to access additional
functionality and security options depending on work environment and
the location of Sofia.
Entry to the SETTINGS menu is accomplished by logging in as
the Supervisor. Sofia comes from the manufacturer with a default
Supervisor login ID which should be changed when Sofia is initially
installed at the customer site. The default Supervisor ID is 1234.
Note: If the factory default ID is deleted and all other Supervisor
codes have been misplaced or forgotten, please call Quidel Technical
Support for a 1 day temporary Supervisor ID code that will allow the
User to create a new Supervisor ID code. Contact Quidel Technical
Support for assistance at 800.874.1517 (in the U.S.). For additional
contact information see (page 3).
