    There is a potential that the analyte comments may be deleted if the specific analyte is not counted in the mask. this risk is avoided in the case that the user makes comments against the “blood film comments” analyte for reporting blood film comments. the differential keyboard orders a profile that contains all of the additional blood cell types that can be manually counted. in many instances these additional cell types will not be identified in the count and will not receive a result (eg blasts, myelocytes, etc). the expected behaviour is that if a cell is not counted, then these analytes will be removed from the profile when the final count is accepted.

    There is a potential for incorrect handling of extra-long result messages that are sent form the cobas® 8000 data manager and received into it 3000 using a “v2” instrument driver. this is applicable for messages that are greater than 33 results in length per episode and if the configuration of the predefined buffer size is not optimal. the “v2” instrument drivers for cobas® 8000 use a buffer to ensure that extra-long result messages are processed correctly. if this buffer is not configured for the specific driver that is installed, then there can be a mismatch in the amount of data that is truncated. the effect of this being that results and flags after result #33 in the string may be delayed and in some cases may not be reported to cobas® it 3000.

    Three issues requiring correction have been identified by the manufacturer:1. during reliability tests on the steel rope, one of the springs broke and the safety catch did not hold. the safety catch mechanism does not activate due to the counteracting force of the remaining spring. as a consequence the u-arm moves down uncontrolled. the manufacturer has identified that this can occur in the field earliest after 2.5 years of operation. these 2.5 years are calculated for a worst case usage of the system. 2. during installation all 3 screws for one sib chain wheel were found loose. if all 3 screws of one of these wheels loosen completely, the detector carriage and/or the tube carriage can move down uncontrolled until stopped by the corresponding end stop.3. during in-house testing it was detected that the life time of the wire rope is significantly lower than the specified 10 years. the replacement of the wire rope every 3 years is required.
