5 5 2. Installation Please observe the following instructions for use: Insert the rechargeable battery if the instrument is to be used networkindependent or connect the photometer to the power supply unit. Press the key </> (Fig. 1) to activate the internal instrument check which is automatically carried out by the instrument. Following this, the instrument is immediately ready for measuring. 3. Description of the instrument Cuvette shaft Display Function keys Fig. 1

6 Power supply The Vario Photometer can be operated as desired using a power supply, a (9V block) battery or (model 6F22 or PP3) rechargeable battery Mains power operation The power supply connector plug is connected to the instrument s socket. The Vario Photometer is provided with a power supply unit (6-9V=) for operation at 230 V/50 Hz Network-independent operation Insertion of the rechargeable battery or the normal battery: Unscrew the knurled screws on the bottom side and remove the cap. Connect the rechargeable battery or the normal battery using the push-button contact and insert it. Place the cap back on top and fasten the knurled screws. The rechargeable battery cannot be charged whilst it is installed. A separate battery charger is required for this purpose. Please note: The Vario Photometer can be operated using a power supply and it is not necessary to remove the rechargeable battery or the normal battery for this purpose. 3.2 Measuring system The optical section is shown in Fig. 2. Focus Cuvette Fig. 2 The light emitted by an LED is first selected by an interference filter IF (HBW ~ 5 nm) in its spectral ranges (520 nm and 546 nm) and then guided concentrated to the cuvette in the shaft. After it has passed through the cuvette, a broadband photo sensor converts the light falling onto its sensor surface to current, proportional to its intensity.

7 7 4.

9 9 6. Internal quality control We recommend using the Diaglobal control solutions LAC QS and GLU QS to check the accuracy of measurements of lactate and glucose. We recommend using the blood control HEM QS and ERY QS with target value in the normal concentration area for checking the accuracy of measurements of haemoglobin, haematocrit and erythrocyte counts. We recommend using the Diaglobal control caps BIL QS to check the accuracy of measurements of bilirubin. We recommend using the Diaglobal control caps DIA QS to check the accuracy and precision of the system photometer and reagent. For all other parameters we recommend using the universal control sera from company Roche, Precinorm U Order-No.: (4 x 5 ml) for normal range Precipath U Order-No.: (4 x 5 ml) for pathological range 7. Measuring process 7.1 End point measurement The absorbency after reaching the end point is measured. It is measured against the reagent s blank count. Parameters: Haemoglobin (HB), Haemoglobin-SLS (HB SLS), Erythrocytes (ERY), Haematocrit (HCT), Uric Acid (UA), HDL Cholesterol (HDL/CHO) Calculation Concentration = Absorbance x Factor The erythrocyte and haematocrit counts are determined using stored reference curves. 7.2 End point measurement, taking the sample s blank count and preprogrammed measuring time into account After measurement of the sample blank count, the colour reaction is started in the cuvette and the end point absorbency is measured after a preset period has lapsed. Parameters: Bilirubin (BIL), Bilirubin for the newborn (BIL N), and Creatinine (CRE). Calculation: Concentration = Absorbance x Factor Measurement time: 2 Minutes The samples are measured in succession: Sample 01: Measurement 1 (sample blank value) Sample 01: Measurement 2 (result) Sample 02: Measurement 1 (sample blank value) Sample 02: Measurement 2 (result) etc.

10 10 Parameter: UREA (UREA) Calculation: Concentration = Absorbance x Factor Measurement time: 10 Minutes Blanks of the samples are measured in succession: Sample 01: Measurement 1 (sample blank value) Sample 02: Measurement 1 (sample blank value) Sample 03: Measurement 1 (sample blank value) etc. Results are measured one after another: Sample 01: Measurement 2 (result) Sample 02: Measurement 2 (result) Sample 03: Measurement 2 (result) etc. 7.3 Multipoint measurement, taking the sample s blank point and recognition of the end point into account After measurement of the sample blank value (= measurement 1), the colour reaction is started in the cuvette. The reaction process is monitored by the instrument (= measurement 2). The measuring procedure is stopped as soon as the end point is reached. The time needed to reach the end point is temperature-dependent. It is normally 2-6 minutes for the lactate test. If temperatures are close to freezing point, measuring times of up to 20 minutes may result, dependent on the parameters. Both single measurements and series measurements can be selected. If single measurements are made, the samples are measured one after another. For series measurements, all E1 values are measured first. Parameters: Lactate (LAC), Cholesterol (CHO), Triglycerides (TRI) Calculation of concentration in plasma = Absorbance Difference x Factor 7.4 Multipoint measurement, taking the sample s blank point and calculation of the end point into account After measurement of the sample blank value (= measurement 1), the colour reaction is started in the cuvette. The reaction process is monitored by the instrument. The end point is calculated using several absorbency values recorded at different times. Parameters: Glucose (GLU), Lactat-rapid (LAC-rapid) Measuring times: Glucose 2 minutes Lactat-rapid 1 minute

11 11 8. Measurement 8.1 Switching the instrument on Press the < / > key 8.2 Self-testing when switching on A self-testing of the digital and analogue circuit occurs when switching on the instrument. The operational device check proceeds automatically after the switching-on. It lasts ca. 5 seconds, after this the device is ready for measuring. Note: In case during the testing it should emerge that one of the device functions does not satisfy the required settings, the following display appears: <SERVICE> In this case please switch off the instrument. Please call the Service of Diaglobal GmbH (tel / 30 / ) or contact your speciality retailer. 8.3 Test selection Press the < / > key Select the desired method using from the menu using the right or left arrow key: LAC - LAC-rapid - GLU - CHO - HDL/CHO - TRI - HB - HB-SLS - ERY - HCT - UREA - UA - CRE - BIL - BIL N - ABS520 - ABS546 Press the right arrow key to mark the respective next test and the left arrow key to return to the previous test. The test currently selected is shown in the upper right-hand corner of the display. Confirm test selection by pressing the < / > key 8.4 Switching the instrument off To switch the instrument off, press the keys together. 8.5 Integrated operational device checks Self-testing when switching on The testing of the device s digital and analogue circuit occurs automatically already when switching on the instrument. Please see chapter 8, point 8.2. Differential measurements All measurements are based on differential measurements, i.e. after having chosen the desired test the instrument requests a reference measurement with a blank value cuvette. Thus, a reference basis to the measured value is established so that minor deviations may be compensated.

12 12 Measurement range controls The measurement ranges of all measurement results indicated in the display become verified by an integrated measurement range control. An error display appears when exceeding the measurement range. All measurement ranges, which are separately defined for each parameter, are documented in the respective package inserts as well as in the operating manual, chapter 9, technical data. Plausibility controls When performing multiple point measurements the extinction, which was measured first, represents the reference basis. The programme tests the individual measured values for plausibility. In case particular requirements (e.g. A2 > A1 for rising reactions) are not met, an error message is displayed.
