  • Causa
    An error relative to the liquid reagents management (test cells or anti-serum vials) might occur if the following conditions are present:1. ih-1000 is in status “ready to start” and:2. the user requests the unloading of a reagent rack while the system is creating the internal batch (the time slot during which the error could occur is about 2 seconds);3. another is loaded immediately afterwards in the same position.If all three conditions are present, the ih-1000 may not use the full set of liquid reagents required to perform the tests of the ongoing batch.Due to a software failure, the system may only use the vial placed in the first position of the re-loaded rack for all the tests of the ongoing batch.
