Explain ON and OFF selection

The following selections can be switched ON or OFF:

1. 30 min. method
   • 30 min. method ON: ESR's are measured after 30 minutes.
   • 30 min. method OFF: ESR's are measured after 60 minutes.
     
2. Display dilution
   • Display dilution ON: The dilution rates of all samples are shown in the status line on the screen directly after aspiration.
   • Display dilution OFF: Dilution rates are only shown if they are outside the selected accepted range.
     
3. EDTA mode
   • EDTA mode ON: Samples are presented in EDTA sample tubes. The samples are diluted in the Starrsed.
   • EDTA mode OFF: Samples are presented in pre-diluted CITRATE sample tubes. Dilution on the Starrsed is switched OFF.
     
4. Display graph
   • Display graph ON: A graphical presentation from the measured sample data is shown on the Main screen.
   • Display graph OFF: Default setting, no graph is shown.
     
5. Sample probe protection
   • Sample probe protection OFF: The sample probe motor will push the sample probe (inner needle) down to the set depth.
   • Sample probe protection ON: The sample probe motor will stop when a certain current limit is exceeded and returns to the home position.
   • Reset the Sample probe protection switch from ON to OFF and ON again.
     
6. Temp. Correction
   • Temp. Correction ON: A temperature corrected value for the ESR is shown besides the actual measured value.
   • Temp. Correction OFF: Only the actual measured ESR value is shown.
     
7. Fast filling
   • Fast filling OFF (Default setting): The carousel is filled with optimum pipette usage but completion of a sample rack takes a little longer. The rotation sequence of the carousel is evenly divided. In 60 minute method, the carousel moves one position every 40 seconds (approx.). In 30 minute method, the carousel moves one position every 20 seconds (approx.).
   • Fast filling ON: The carousel is filled with optimum sample speed. The sample tubes in the rack are faster available for the user but the carousel shows more unused pipettes.
     
8. Virtual keyboard
   • Virtual keyboard ON: If keyboard input is required, a virtual keyboard automatically pops up on the screen.
   • Virtual keyboard OFF: No pop-up screen of virtual keyboard.
     
9. Print after measurement
   • This will print the measured result on a single line directly to a dot matrix printer. If this option is switched ON, it is also possible to print a new header at the top of the results.
     When other printers then dot matrix are used, every result is printed on one new page.
     
10. Check for duplicate IDs
    • Check for duplicate IDs ON: It is not possible to run the same sample ID as long as this ID is in the pipette carousel data buffer
    • Check for duplicate IDs OFF: It is possible to run the same sample ID, even when it is still stored in the carousel data buffer.
