Paper Installation

to the right of the printer paper slot (see Figure 3). The cover can then be
lifted back. Place the paper roll in the compartment and pull out the first few
inches of paper to just beyond the edge of the compartment. The
thermosensitive side of the paper (the outer surface of the paper roll)
should be facing downwards (see Figure 4). Close the cover again by
pressing until it locks audibly into position.
Self Check
(5) Switch on the Urisys 1100
®
Urine Analyzer using the on/off switch at the
rear of the instrument. The analyzer will then automatically perform a self
check. The analyzer is factory set to read Chemstrip 10 MD test strips. It
checks that the correct tray has been inserted. On completion of the self
check, the tray returns to the start position and the retaining bar opens (see
Figure 5). If the self check is completed sucessfully, the message “Self
Check OK” will print along with the time and date.
ATTENTION: If the message E9 Wrong Tray! is displayed after the Urisys 1100
®
Urine Analyzer is switched on, press the
START button. The selection menu STRIP TYPE is displayed. If you use the Chemstrip 10 MD Test Strips, select CHEM 10
by press ing the left function key. If you use Chemstrip 5 OB or Chemstrip 7 Test Strips, select CHEM 5 or CHEM 7
respectively, by pressing the corresponding function keys.
Calibration
(6) Upon first use of the analyzer, the message “REPEAT CALIBRATION” appears after a successful self check. This also
happens if the analyzer is not used for more than seven days. Calibration must be performed using a Chemstrip
Calibration Strip prior to reading patient samples when using the Chemstrip 10 MD* Test Strip. See Section 5 for
details on this calibration procedure.
ATTENTION: If Chemstrip 5 OB or Chemstrip 7 Test Strips are used, calibration is not necessary with the Chemstrip
Calibration Strips. The instrument calibration is performed automatically via the gray reference field on the test strip tray.

®
Urine Analyzer leaves the factory with default settings for Printer Results, Interface Mode, Test Strip
Type, Reporting Units, Language, Date/time format (see Section 3.4) and Operator ID. Individual facility preferences
can be entered via the menus. See Section 3 for details on modifying instrument settings through the software menus.
