Luminex xPONENT 3.1 Rev 2 - Manual (Page 93)

• Allow running a batch with expired reagents - Allows batches to run with expired
reagents.
• Allow running a batch if XY temperature is not in range - Allows batches to run if the
XY temperature is not in range.
• Allow running a batch if the instrument is not calibrated or verified - Allows batches to
run if the instrument is not calibrated.
• Use Weighting as default option for quantitative analysis - Sets the weighting for
quantitative analysis to default to ON for new protocols.
• Warn when saving/running a New Batch with New Protocol without saving the
Protocol and/or Standard and Control information - Enables a dialog box warning when
saving or running a new batch with a new protocol when you haven’t saved the protocol
and/or standard and control information.
• Prompt for reacquiring of the last errored wells for an aborted partial batch -Allows
users to choose to reacquire aborted wells when resuming a stopped/partial batch or to
start with the next unacquired well.
Batch Settings - This section displays the following options:
• Calibration expiration days - Type the desired number of days a system calibration
remains active before expiring. The default number of days is seven.
• Analysis display decimal places - Type the number of digits the system displays. The
default number of digits is three.
• Minimum bead count for obtaining results - Type any whole number from 1 to 1000000.
This is the minimum bead count that must be observed by the instrument for a particular
analyte before this data is used in statistical calculations and is displayed on the graphs
and results table. When set to a number greater than 1, the analyzer does not display data
for bead sets not generating events equal to or less than this value. Type 1 to display all
events.
• Allow batches to be run or saved without lot number, expiration or manufacturer -
Allows saving lots without normal required information.
• Run Routine after batch completes - Select this option to specify a particular routine to
run after a batch is finished. If you select this option, then select a routine from the Routine
to run after batch completes list.
Batch Thresholds - Displays the following options:
Low bead count detection - Selecting either Error or Warning stops the batch or logs a
warning if the number of successive wells in the Well Count box are run without reaching
the number of beads in the Bead Count box. Click in either box to type a number other
than the default.
Cancel - Cancels changes.
Save - Saves changes.
