Labels
Set whether the SELECT LABEL screen appears at the start
of a test. If this is switched off, the label tagged to the result
will be DEFAULT and there will be no limits or dilution applied
to the test. This means that the results screen will always be
a blue result rather than a PASS or FAIL.
Reference
Set whether the SCAN REFERENCE button appears on the
Details page at the end of the test. If scanning a code is a
part of the workflow, set this switch on. If there is never a
code to attach to results, set this switch to off.
Scanner Settings
Kemio's barcode scanner ensures that the right sensor type
is used for a test, that the right calibration information is
used, and that the sensor is in date
If an incorrect barcode is scanned, the instrument displays
an error screen with advice on how to correct the problem
and proceed with the test.
• Scan every test. Each time Perform Test is pressed, Kemio
will prompt the user to scan the sensor barcode. Select this
option for total traceability.
• First test only. After powering on, the first test of a test
type will be scanned. Until the instrument is turned off, Kemio
will skip the prompt to scan a sensor.
• Manual entry. Select the correct code from the list on
screen..
Calibration/Validation
Batch Information
Kemio uses an electrochemical method with disposable screen-
printed and dosed sensors to measure chemicals in solution.
The single-use sensors produced in a single batch all have the
same performance characteristics
Calibration of each sensor batch is performed by Palintest
during production and the information is provided with the
sensors in the form of a QR code on the box.
The correct batch information must be used with a sensor. If
a sensor uses calibration information from the wrong batch, it
could produce a less accurate result. Kemio protects against
this possibility by encouraging the user to scan the batch code
to access the correct calibration batch for each test. If this
option is disabled, it introduces a possible user error.
For details on how to load batch information
before a test is performed, see p. 20.
