1-4 VITROS ECi/ECiQ Immunodiagnostic System Version 2.0
Intended Use
For In Vitro Diagnostic use only. The VITROS®ECi/ECiQ
Immunodiagnostic System perform random access, batch, and STAT
immunodiagnostic assays on human fluid specimens. The system uses
chemiluminescence detection technology to provide accurate and reliable
results for heterogeneous assays. All reactions for a single quantitative,
semi-quantitative, and qualitative measurement take place within a coated
well.
Note: The availability of the ECi/ECiQ Immunodiagnostic Assays listed
and illustrated in this Guide are subject to regulatory registration,
licensing, clearance, or approval.
Installation and Site Specifications
Although equipment service representatives uncrate and install the
VITROS ECi/ECiQ Immunodiagnostic System at the laboratory site, the
site needs to be prepared according to specifications.
This section describes general requirements for installing the ECi/ECiQ
System at your laboratory, including physical and environmental
requirements.

e-Connectivity™
e-Connectivity™ requires a Virtual Private Network (VPN) and Modem.
The VPN and Modem require two electrical outlets and non-dedicated
power lines can be used. They can also be plugged into a single power strip
which can share the same receptacle as the ECi/ECiQ System. Power cords
are supplied with the VPN and Modem.
