5. INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION
5.1. Touch Sensitive screen
prietest TOUCH provides a Touch sensitive LCD panel and a KEYPAD for easy user
interface. The Menus are displayed; the text of the parameter forms the TOUCH ZONE.
Touch screen Layout
For Example: In Kinetic Mode.
Above is the generic representation of a Test Screen. The Highlighted zones are TOUCH
ZONES, which are active. On touching the “Touch Zone” of a parameter, a sub menu/menu is
displayed or the requested action is carried out, and rest of the “Touch Zone” is deactivated.
For Example: -To activate the selection.
•To enter the primary filter value, touch any point in the shaded area “Pri” on the LCD
screen. On proper selection the analyser responds with blinking of the parameter text and
also the TOUCH ZONE and a submenu is displayed.
•To enter Test Name: Touching the “Name” touch zone provides a alphanumeric screen.
Enter the Test name by touching the Touch zone of that variable. The selected value blinks
and is displayed next to the parameter.
Selection Indicator
Selected onscreen item is shown in a shaded background. When the screen first displays, the
default selection is shown. Pressing a selection either highlights that item or activates it.

5.4. Probe
The instrument is provided with a probe to aspirate the sample into the flow cell. The push
button (Aspiration Switch) has to be pressed to activate the peristaltic pump.
5.5. Peristaltic pump
The instrument is provided with a peristaltic suction pump. The aspiration push button
switch activates the peristaltic pump. The pump is enabled during wash and during “Aspirate
sample” message
5.6. Instrument working principle
Instrument functional sequence:
-Switch on the instrument
-Program the test.
-Aspirate the sample into the flow cell
-The measures and the calculations are carried out according to the assay method
Following is the diagram representing the fluid system of the instrument. The peristaltic pump is
activated by the push button located on the probe. The sample is sucked into the flow cell for the
photometric reading
Waste Sample Solution
Peristaltic Pump
Flow cell
Direction of Arrows represents liquid flow
Sample is aspirated from the sample tube when aspiration switch is pressed. Aspirated sample is
then carried to the flow cell, carefully pushing previous sample from the flow cell. Flow cell has
18µl reading volume.

PRINCIPLE OF WORKING:
Below is the diagram representing the main functional elements of the instrument.
White light produced by the lamp is focused into a beam by lens and passes through the
interference filter and monochromatic light beam falls on the sample. Part of the light is absorbed
by the sample, the remaining is transmitted. The transmitted light is focused onto the photodiode.
The photodiode converts the received light in to an electrical signal that is transformed into digital
form from which the microprocessor calculates the optical density, taking in account of the blank
and bichromatic selection.

5.7. Printer
A) Internal Printer (Thermal Printer)
prietest TOUCH comes with a built in 20 column Thermal Printer. User has to take proper
care to handle this delicate instrument.
TIPS FOR CAREFUL USAGE OF PRINTER
Do not pull the paper when loaded
1. Lift the paper lever carefully and load the paper
2. Keep the instrument clean and dust free
prietest TOUCH gives line feed automatically wherever it is necessary for clear reading like
a. While powering on
b. In between character lines
User may operate the instrument by disabling the printer from the utilities menu.
How to insert the paper
Insert the thermal paper roll by placing the sensitive side facing down. The sensitive
paper side is recognizable by its smoother face.
Before inserting the paper After inserting the paper
B) External Printer (Optional)
Switch off the analyser before connecting the printer.
Disconnect the small cable from the external printer port (Ref Diagram in 5.3) provided on the
rear of analyser. User can then connect the external printer using the standard communication
cable to external printer port.
(Note : If an external printer is connected then the internal printer is disabled.)

prietest TOUCH USER MANUAL

can be used for browsing through the list pages
“PRINT”: For printing the test screen.
MENU : Select Menu for Main menu screen
6. INSTALLATION AND START-UP INSTRUCTIONS:
While installing and setting up the instrument, the safety warnings and general precautions
described in section 7 must be observed.
6.1. Placing the instrument
Place the instrument on a flat working surface or bench top capable of supporting the weight of the
instrument. A clearance of at least 3 inches around the instrument is required to assure optimal
ventilation. Room temperature should be between 18ºC and 35 ºC with a relative humidity below
85%. Protect it from direct sunshine and maintain the instrument in a clean, relatively dust free
environment to ensure maximum performance.
6.2. Power supply
Once the instrument has been placed, plug it into a power source by using the locally available
approved plug-in cable. Power cord should be CE, CSA and UL marked
Voltage : 115 -230 Volts ± 10%, 60-50 Hz
6.3. Protective Grounding
Warning: Make sure that electrical power source is properly grounded.
6.4. Start up Instructions
1. Switch on the instrument.
2. The instrument initializes all the parameters internally, and carries out a power on self-test and
then displays the following screen
•If a printer is enabled, Model Name, Version Number, Clinic name / Serial Number,current
time and date will be printed.(Note: If a printer is not enabled, “Disable printer” message is
displayed.Touch YES to disable or NO to proceed. Refer 5.7 for Printer settings)
•Once initialization is over, a lamp located within the instrument will glow. This lamp requires
90 seconds for stabilization.
•After the instrument completes the above steps, a TEST MENU SCREEN / MAIN MENU
Screen appears.
•The instrument is now in IDLE mode, and ready for use.
•Note: If the instrument is in Flow cell Mode and flow cell is missing,
“Insert flow cell” message will appear on the screen.

7. PRECAUTIONS
λKeep the place dry and clean.
λCheck all the grounding wires properly.
Repeat the readings, if Absorbance is more than 2.0 A.
Use original Packing for transportation.
λUse clean Cuvettes. Check the blank absorbance of the cuvette at regular intervals.
Check the temperature of cuvette block at regular intervals, especially before running kinetic and
fixed time tests.
Check the linearity of the instrument at regular intervals using standards.
λDo not take any reading when the lid is open
λIncubate the cuvettes at set temperature for at least 30 minutes before using
λIncubate the reagents at set temperature for at least 30 minutes before using
λWash the flow-cell immediately after high OD samples (1.5 A and above)
λNormally, avoid reading HIGH OD samples immediately after referencing
λWash the flow cell everyday morning before using and evening before closing down
Do not use any sharp objects on the Touch Screen. Always use the STYLUS provided to operate
the touch panel.
