4.3 Modification for Chemstrip 5 OB and Chemstrip 7 Urine Test Strips
For readings with Chemstrip 5 OB or Chemstrip 7 Test Strips, the Type N test strip tray is required to accomodate the
shorter test strips. It is necessary to modify the “strip type” setting on the analyzer to either “Chem 7” or “Chem 5” as
appropriate. To do this, press START and use the function keys to select “Menu”, followed by “Setup 1”, “Strip”, and then
“Type”. Select the appropriate strip type from the menu. Press START to confirm and then insert the Type N test strip tray
into the reader. The Urisys 1100
®
Urine Analyzer is now ready.
For Chemstrip 5 OB and Chemstrip 7 Urine Test Strips, calibration with the Chemstrip Calibration Strip is not necessary.
The instrument calibration is performed via the gray reference pad on the test strip tray.
Please note that the Chemstrip 5 OB and Chemstrip 7 Urine Test Strips do not have a compensation pad. Consequently,
when used with either of these strips, the Urisys 1100
®
Urine Analyzer does not compensate for strong intrinsic urine
coloration and occasional false-positive readings may occur.
4.4 Operator ID
The Urisys 1100
®
software allows the activation/deactivation of the operator identification code, containing up to 12
alphanumeric characters. The Operator ID and Authentication mode can be activated in Setup 3.
NOTE: Please ensure that you have a barcode reader and/or an AT/PC keyboard prior to activation, as you will need one
for this function.
Normal
If activated, the operator ID is asked upon every restart of the system and coming out from sleep mode.
This operator ID can contain up to 12 alphanumeric characters and will be printed out together with the test results and
will be sent to the host.
4.5 Authentication
It is possible to download up to 300 operator IDs with corresponding passwords (up to 12 alphanumeric characters) from
the host PC via the ASTM protocol.
Device can be used only by an operator with ID and password in the downloaded list. Entry of incorrect operator ID and
passwords causes a lock out. This prevents access of the instrument by unauthorised users.
Operators having supervisor rights (maximum 2) have access to all results, may send the instrument log file to the host or
print the last 10 actions of the log file and may deactivate the authentication mode.
* Hospitals may use Chemstrip 10 UA Urine Test Strips (Cat. No. 418003).
