3.1.3
System Indicators
The meanings of on-screen displays used on the BD Veritor™ Plus Analyzer are as follows:
Symbol
Hourglass: An indication that the Analyzer is nearing end of life, either due to usage duration (time) or usage count.
In addition to the Hourglass icon, a descriptive message will appear on the screen after the power-on self-test is
complete. The message describes which end-of-life event is approaching and the remaining usage time or usage
count available. Each end-of-life event generates a unique message; insertion of a test device terminates all
messages and immediately initiates a test.
When this symbol is present, the user should contact their BD representative to order a new BD Veritor
Analyzer.
The symbol switches from a continuous state to flashing when end of life is imminent.
See section 2.2 for an explanation of lifetime specifications.
Plug: When the Analyzer is properly connected to the facility power supply and powered on, the Plug icon will
appear on screen.
Before calling BD, check if the supplied AC Adapter is used.
Battery Not Charging:
In the event the battery icon does not indicate the battery is charging while the power supply is plugged into the
™
BD Veritor
Plus Analyzer, examine the AC Adapter plugged into the Analyzer. The supplied AC Adapter has a BD
label near the coaxial power connector and conforms to the sample labeling in section 2.3.
If the Plug icon is flashing, it indicates a failure in the battery charging circuit. Contact your local BD representative.
The Analyzer may continue to be used when connected to the facility power supply.
Battery: An indication of battery strength. The maximum battery strength is represented by four bars.
When the battery is nearly discharged, no bars are displayed and the battery outline flashes, indicating an imminent
need for recharge. While the battery is charging, the bars will cycle to indicate charging is underway. Once the
battery is fully charged, the cycling will stop and four bars will appear in a continuous state.
On BD Veritor™ Plus Analyzers that are connected to the BD Veritor™ Plus Connect, this symbol indicates when
the Analyzer is connected to the facility LIS.
On BD Veritor™ Plus Analyzers equipped with a BD Veritor™ InfoWiFi module, this symbol indicates connectivity to
the wireless network. Please refer to the instructions provided with the module for more details.
This symbol only appears on BD Veritor
options. The envelope symbol appears when test results are waiting to be transmitted. A flashing envelope indicates
that data are in the process of being transmitted. The envelope symbol disappears when result transmission is
complete.
Do not use if product damaged - Indicates a medical device that should not be used if the package has been
damaged or opened.
Disposal of electronic products / Separate collection for waste of electrical and electronic equipment. Do not dispose
of battery in municipal waste.
