Admin settings
The administrative settings (Settings → Measure-
ment flow → Maintenance → Admin settings) al-
low instrument-specific settings for the LIS con-
nection and GMT value to be adjusted. A Factory
reset can also be performed from here.
The following password is needed to change the
admin settings: QRGOSET. The password is used
as a confirmation step to ensure that the user does
not access this page inadvertently.
GMT
GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) is a universal refer-
ence time in relation to which the instrument's time
is stored. The GMT value is not visible to the user;
it is used internally for the instrument.
To set the GMT value, adjust the date and time
appropriately with the arrow buttons.
Internal clock
The date and time have been adjusted (in GMT)
at the factory.
Once a day, the date and time values are recorded
in the memory, on start-up.
If the clock battery runs out, the clock stops. Once
that clock battery has been replaced, the clock
continues from the last time value saved. The
time can be adjusted from the admin settings. This
operation requires a password. The new time en-
tered cannot be before the last time value saved;
supplying a time too far in the past results in an
error message.
Local time
Adjust the time in accordance with the local time.
The local time is saved to the memory as an offset
from GMT.
When changing the clock battery, adjust the date
and time appropriately. The time supplied can-
not be more than 24 hours before the last saved
(GMT) value. Giving a time too far in the past re-
sults in an error message: "Setting of date failed.
Date is in the past."
Security settings
When Security settings is set ON, user must al-
ways log in to QuikRead go Instrument with Op-
erator ID and password before starting to use
the instrument. Only emergency measurements
can be measured just with Operator ID, without a
password. All users have a role and need a user
account with Operator ID, full name and pass-
word. User roles are
Admin:
•
only one per instrument, Operator ID is AD-
MIN. The ID is not modifiable.
Supervisor:
•
has access to all except for performing factory
reset and deleting security logs.
Normal User:
•
can set user specific settings.
•
can see QC and LIS offline results, and option-
ally old patient results.
•
can add new QC lots locally when doing a
Quality control measurement. QC checking
needs to be ON.
•
can see error log and transfer the log to a USB
storage device.
