You have completed the IMMULITE 2000 Immunoassay System Required Maintenance Online Training Course. Listed below are the key points that have been presented. Take time to review the material before you proceed to the final quiz.   Weekly Maintenance Procedures •  Cleaning the Waste Tube Cleaning the waste tube keeps the tubing clean which prevents bacterial growth.  The software must be logged off to access the diagnostics screen in order to perform the waste tube maintenance procedure.  Select the Waste Tube diagnostic option from the Load Program window and follow the instructions on the screen to effectively perform the waste tube cleaning procedure.   Monthly Maintenance Procedures • Checking the dispense angle of the reagent probe The reagent probe dispense angle procedure checks the integrity of the reagent probe.  You must access the diagnostic window by logging off the software and selecting the option in the Load Program window to initiate the dispense reagent probe angle.  Follow the instructions for the successful completion of the maintenance procedure.   • Cleaning the fan filter Cleaning the fan filter allows for proper cooling of the computers and hard drives.  Open the top cover of the system and open the side door panel by loosening the screw to access the fan filter.  Remove the fan filter and replace with a clean fan filter for proper air flow.   • Decontaminating the Clot Detection Transducer The decontamination of the clot transducer keeps the clot transducer free of microbial growth.  The clot detection transducer procedure can be performed by accessing the diagnostics window and selecting the transducer decontamination option to initiate the procedure.  Follow the instructions on the screen to successfully complete the procedure.   • Decontaminating the fluid bottles and lines Decontamination of the bottles and lines keeps the bottles and fluidic lines free of microbial growth.  You will initiate the maintenance procedure on the software to decontaminate the lines; and use 70% isopropyl to wash the bottles and rinse them well with distilled or DI water.   • Performing the water test PM The Water test PM ensures that the system water is free of alkaline phosphatase contamination.  To perform the water test PM, the system must be logged off to access the diagnostics window.  Select the water test PM option from the Load Program window and follow the instruction on the screen to successfully complete the procedure.   Quarterly Maintenance Procedures • Replacing the CO2 scrubber The CO2 scrubber maintains the integrity of the substrate.  To replace the CO2 scrubber, the top cover of the system must be opened.  You will remove the old CO2 scrubber and replace it with the new CO2 scrubber by removing and replacing the attached black tubing to the new CO2 scrubber.   Select Next to continue.   The IMMULITE 2000 Weekly Maintenance procedure consists of: Waste Tube Cleaning Diagnostic Select Next to continue.

You have completed the General CentraLink Software Configuration online training course. Listed below are the key points that have been presented.  Take time to review the material before you proceed to the final quiz. The Water Test PM is used to check the water on the system for alkaline phosphatase contamination which can affect patient results. Evaluating Water Test PM Learn how to evaluate the Water Test PM. Slide NumberText BlocksCalloutsAudio ScriptImage File1To evaluate the Water Test PM results: Ensure that the CPS measurement for each reaction tube is <1100. Select Next to continue.Note: If audio does not automatically start, select the play arrow in the top left to begin.Upon completion of the Water Test PM, the IMMULITE 2000 System generates a printed report to evaluate the Water Test PM results. Ensure that the CPS measurement for each tube is less than 1100.2Enter the Substrate Only CPS value in the first blank on the line for each tube.  Select Next to continue. If the first criteria passed, enter the Substrate Only CPS value in the first blank on the line for each tube. 3 Subtract the Substrate Only CPS from the individual water CPS. Select Next to continue. After entering the value in the appropriate fields, subtract the Substrate Only CPS from the individual water CPS.4Enter the result in the second blank on the line for each tube. Select Next to continue. Next, enter the result in the appropriate field on the second blank on the line for each tube. 5The difference between the CPS measurement of each tube and the Substrate Only CPS must be ≤200 CPS.When complete, select the X in the upper-right corner to close the window and continue.If any of the measurements fail the criteria, repeat the procedure. If the difference between the CPS measurement of each tube and the Substrate Only CPS measurement is less than or equal to 200 CPS, the water test passed.

Welcome to the VersaCell™ Overview course. The VersaCell™ is a robotic device that continuously loads and unloads sample tubes to and from the instruments connected to it. Its design lends itself to flexible connectivity based on the customer's needs and space constraints. The VersaCell™ can be used to connect one instrument to a track system, to connect two instruments in a linear configuration, or to connect two instruments in an L-shape configuration. In this course, the operator will learn how to perform basic operations of the VersaCell™ system, including how to startup and shutdown the VersaCell™, how to navigate the VersaCell™ software, and how to run samples and monitor their status. Click the next button to review the course objectives. Maintaining the fluidic lines keeps the lines free of microbial growth and ensures accurate patient results.
