Communication ports

• The two USB communication ports provide connection to external devices, e.g. network, keyboard, USB storage device

• The two other communication ports provide connection to mouse and keyboard

• Furthermore there is a printer port, a network connector, a serial port and a port for an external CRT VG monitor

Parameters

• There are 10 electrode slots in the two electrode modules• One electrode slot for the reference electrode• Nine other electrodes available for the following

parameters:

pHpH, , ppCOCO22, , ppOO22, , ccKK++, , ccNaNa++, , ccCaCa2+2+, , ccClCl–– , , ccGlucoseGlucose, , ccLactateLactate

Oximetry parameters

ctHb = concentration of total hemoglobin

sO2 = oxygen saturation %

FO2Hb = fraction of oxyhemoglobin

FCOHb = fraction of carboxyhemoglobin

FHHb = fraction of deoxyhemoglobin

FMetHb = fraction of methemoglobin

FHbF = fraction of fetal hemoglobin

ctBil = concentration of bilirubin

Specifications – analysis details

• Sample volumes Macromodes 195 L (all parameters) Micromodes 35-95 L (all parameters)

• Measuring time Macromodes 80 sec., cycle time 150 sec., approx. 24 samples/hr Micromodes 80-135 sec., cycle time 145-200 sec., approx. 18 samples/hr

• Derived parameters 47 different derived parameters to choose from. See the types and definition in

teh ABL800 FLEX Specification sheet

11

Specifications - communications

• Computer specification Intel Celeron Processor Windows XP embedded

• True multi-tasking system Intel Celeron processor for DMS software Dedicated 80386 CPU for wet section

• Communication LIS/HIS communication based on ASTM and HL7 Network communication – Ethernet (TCP/IP protocol as communication protocol) True two-way communication

12

Customizable

• Very comprehensive setup programs More functions than ever can be customized Examples: operators and passwords, corrective actions, reference and critical

ranges etc.

• Automatic restart after replacements• On-line help systems

Video tutorials Help troubleshooting

• Connection to RADIANCE Especially analyzer remote control module

13

Sampler types

Syringe QC with adapterCapillary tube

Expired air Test tube

14

AutoCheck

• Automated QC measurements • Eliminates user-to-user

variance - results only reflect analyzer performance

• Time-saving• Holds 20 ampoules

15

Color touch screen

• Operation and management of the analyzer are performed via the color touch screen

• The screen is divided into three sections

1. Top section/status bar varies slightly according to the status of the analyzer and setup

2. Center section contains the main information and interaction area

3. Bottom section contains navigation buttons and varies slightly according to the screen in question

16

Top section

• The status bar describes the current task

E.g. calibration, rinse, aspiration The time bar is present when the

analyzer is performing a task

• The parameter bar lists all the measured parameters available and activated

• The traffic light gives an overview of various analyzer activities and the traffic light color shows the overall status of the analyzer – see the “02 What is what” presentation for a further description

17

Center section

• The center section is the main information and interaction area

• Each screen is identified by an icon and a name that matches the button that gives access to it

• The screen may contain text, check buttons, scroll bars, a screen keypad or screen keyboard

18

Bottom section

• The bottom section changes with the different options, depending on the screen in question

1. In the Ready screen Access various information, e.g. the

current time, next QC, if connected to RADIANCE

The buttons can be selected to give access to e.g. Logon/Log Off, the Menu

2. General navigation buttons “Close” – close actual window “Back” – go one step backwards

3. Other navigation buttons Results, ID, messages, print, etc.
