ROTATION BELT CALIBRATION

Notes :
Due to transportation shocks or long period of
-
vibration the belt which links the rotation driving
-
stepper motor to the X/Y system can be released.
-
-
The first points to check in the X/Y positioning
-
calibration are :
-
-
-1- The 2 gears ! which are :
- on the X/Y system on the rotation motor
-
- under the rotation stepper motor
-
They must be tightly screwed.
-
-2- The rotation belt which must be taut
-
enough.
-
For the belt test it is just necessary to touch the
-
-
rotation belt " . It must be straight but not too taut.
If it is too taut the axis of the rotation motor could be
-
destroyed in time.
-
If the belt is released it is confirmed by a dead
-
-
movement # that one can feel by moving the
sampling needle from left to right around the
-
standby position. When the belt is tight enough the
-
dead movement disappears and maintains only the
-
movement of the rotation gear box.
-
To pull the belt it is just necessary to unscrew (2
-
screws) the rotation motor on the back side of the
-
-
front panel, pull a little bit $ to tight on the belt and
finish by fixing the motor with the screws again.

X/Y UP/DOWN SYSTEM
Parts description

Notes :
The X/Y up/down system is detailed as follows :
-
-
-
! An optical switch in upper position. The infrared
barrier sensor is located on the back side of the
-
front fluidic panel. A vertical slide on the front metallic
-
panel allows the plastic optical switch to follow the
-
up/down movement and give the upper position as
-
the reference position. This optical switch is directly
-
fixed to the belt and the whole blood sampling needle
-
axis.
-
-
" An upper position gear which is directly fixed
to the stepper motor # . No gearbox in this case.
-
-
A space has been left around this gear in the front
-
panel to permit the up/down stepper motor to position
-
the calibration.

UP/DOWN BELT CALIBRATION

Notes :
Due to transportation shocks or long periods of
-
vibration the belt which links the Up/Down driving
-
stepper motor to the X/Y system can be released.
-
-
So check :
-
-1- The Upper gear ! fixation.
-
-
-2- The Up/Down belt which must be tight
-
enough.
-
Test the belt just by touching it ". It must be straight
-
but not too taut. If it is too taut the Up/Down movement
-
will be too strong and then the stepper motor will
-
pain and generate immediate Up/Down errors.
-
If the belt is released then it must be tightened again
-
by pulling on the Up/Down stepper motor by means
-
of the two screw which maintains it #. confirm the
-
right calibration by performing a soft Up/Down
-
movement made by hand on the X/Y system $.
-
-
If the Up/Down belt is not taut enough then
-
drops of whole blood can splashed around the
-
area of the blood sampling on the plastic front
-
panel.

NEEDLE AXIS CONTROL

Notes :
Due to possible transportation shocks the calibration
-
of the vertical metallic bars of the sampling needle
-
must be checked.
-
-
Place visually the vertical metallic bars in the same
-
optical line. Check that all the vertical axis are parallel.
-
-
If vertical axis are not parallel as in drawing !,
-
then correct it by hand " by twisting the total
-
vertical axis to obtain all the vertical metallic bars in
-
the same line #.
-
-
If the up/down axis bars are not parallel some
-
Up/Down Errors can occur.

X/Y SYSTEM OILING

Notes :
From time to time (around once a year) it is
-
necessary to oil the X/Y system. For this, it is very
-
important to use only sewing-machine oil. NEVER
-
use SILICON oil or Grease. Only one drop of
-
sewing-machine oil is enough.
-
-
! Clean the 2 vertical axis with a dry piece of cloth
-
(Use a cloth which leaves no cloth dust) to take off
-
the old dirty grease or old dirty oil.
-
-
" Put one drop on the front axis. Put the drop over
-
the hole of the needle carrier which is made in the
-
front vertical axis.
-
-
# Put one drop on the back axis. Put the drop
-
over the hole of the needle carrier which is made
-
for the back vertical axis.
-
-
$ Put one drop on the bottom gear of the up/
-
down belt. Do Not put any oil on the belt.
-
-
) Make some vertical movements to distribute
-
the oil all along both vertical axis and inside the
-
bottom gear of the up/down belt.

-
controlled by digital data which are the number of
-
steps of the stepper up/down motor. A reference +
-
upper position gives the position where step=0.
-
-
+ The upper reference position is achieved when
-
the upper position optical sensor is masked by the
-
plastic barrier.
-
! Ht_Bd : Blood sampling down position
-
" Ht_Sk : Cleaning sink down position

ROTATION CONTROL SOFTWARE

Notes :
The rotation movement of the X/Y system is controlled
- by digital data which are a number of steps on the
- stepper rotation motor. An initialisation position is
- defined by a large optical slot in the optical wheel.
- This position is initialized on the RBC chamber when
- the MS9 starts up or when modifications are made
- in the fluidic data. This initialisation movement give
- the distance between the Pdl (predilution position)
and RBC (RBC chamber) on which is positioned the
-
large slot reference position. Here are the number of
-
steps for each movement:
-
-
! Sk->Bd : From Sink to whole blood sampling
-
" Sk->Pd : From Sink to Predilution cuvette
-
# Pd->Sk : From Predilution cuvette to Sink
-
$ RB->Pd : RBC chamber to predilution cuvette
-
) RB->Sk : RBC Chamber to Sink
-
, M_Pdl : Steps left for Pdl mixing position
-
- M_Rbc : Steps right for RBC mixing position
-
/ Bd->Sk : From Whole blood sampling to Sink
-
0 Pd->Sk : From Predilution cuvette to Sink
-
-
The speed of the stepper rotation motor can be
-
also controlled with the following digital data :
-
Acc_Qt : Acceleration step quantity
-
Acc_Pt : Acceleration slope
-
Dcl_Qt : Deceleration step quantity
-
Dcl_Pt : Deceleration slope
Spd_Gh : Speed for going to left
Spd_Dt : Speed for going to right

Greasing (.../...)

Notes :
The greasing sequence must be done as follows:
-
-
! Open the vial of very specific grease supplied
-
only by MS Labos. NO OTHER GREASE MUST BE
-
USED.
-
-
" Using the fingers to grease is the better way
-
to proceed here. make sure the hand (finger) is clean
-
to avoid spreading dust or dirty particles.
-
-
# $ Spread the grease all around the master
-
piston place.

Hb PHOTOMETER
Principle

Notes :
The photometer measures the Haemoglobin (Hb)
-
value with the total reduced Hb haemolyzed Blood
-
solution which comes from the first dilution
-
previously analysed and counted in the WBC
-
chamber. A reference value for Hb (Blank Hb) from
-
the Hemoref® Solution is needed. The optimal
-
value for this Hb reference measuring is around
-
'25'.
-
Hb br = Hb Blood result
-
Hb bk = Hb reference value
-
Hb 1d = Hb first dilution value
-
Hb br = Hb 1d - Hb bk
-
the measuring principle is a Beer-Lambert
-
photometry integration. This integration is done with
-
a capacity / resistivity system. The Beer-Lambert
-
reaction gives an exponential result of the
-
concentration which linearly integrated by the inverse
-
function a such capacity / resistivity integrator.
-
The main weakness of a photometry sensor is its
-
very high variation in temperature. This is the reason
-
why a reference value is needed. Only the difference
-
in value between Hb 1d and Hb bk is fixed even if
-
the temperature shifts.

Maintenance

Notes :
The whole blood sampling needle needs to be
-
cleaned when the external washing of the needle is
-
not perfect. It means when the external sleeve of
-
diluent falls not properly outside the needle and when
-
drops of blood or diluent are splashing around the
-
needle. That must be done as follows :
-
-
! Use the thinnest possible abrasive paper.
-
-
" Take the needle out of the Sink and then start to
-
polish the needle from up to down only with vertical
-
movements. Do not make any rotation # or down
-
to up polishing movements, this could destroy the
-
vertical scored surface of the needle.
-
-
$ Then clean in the same way the needle properly
-
with a cloth wetted of alcohol.

Notes :
Here Sound means 'Beep'. When the mother board

does not have enough correct hardware to work,
-
it beeps to indicate by the number of Beeps which
-
is depending of the Bios origin.
-
The previous MS9 mother board uses an
-
AMIBIOS® ,
-
The new MS9 industrial embedded mother
-
board uses a BIOS AWARD® ,
-
which gives diverse sound information.
-
Most of the time it means that one must check the
-
following points depending on the number of Beeps
-
of course :
-
- Check if the RAM is slotted correctly
-
- Check that the Video board is slotted correctly
-
- Check that the daughter boards is slotted correctly
-
- Check that the microprocessor is slotted correctly
-
-
If all checks seem to be OK, change the Mother

Error Messages
During the power-on self test (POST), the BIOS either sounds a beep code or displays a message
when it detects a correctable error.

Following is a list of POST messages for the ISA BIOS kernel. Specific chipset ports and BIOS
extensions may include additional messages. An error message may be followed by a prompt to
press F1 to continue or press DEL to enter Setup.

Beep
Currently the only beep code indicates that a video error has occurred and the BIOS cannot initialize
the video screen to display any additional information. This beep code consists of a single long
beep followed by two short beeps. Any other beeps are probably a RAM problem.

BIOS ROM checksum error - System halted


The checksum of the BIOS code in the BIOS chip is incorrect, indicating the BIOS code may have
become corrupt. Contact your system dealer to replace the BIOS.

CMOS battery failed


CMOS battery is no longer functional. Contact your system dealer for a replacement battery.

CMOS checksum error - Defaults loaded


Checksum of CMOS is incorrect, so the system loads the default equipment configuration. A
checksum error may indicate that CMOS has become corrupt. This error may have been caused
by a weak battery.
Check the battery and replace if necessary.

CPU at nnnn
Displays the running speed of the CPU.

Display switch is set incorrectly.


The display switch on the mother board can be set to either monochrome or color. This message
indicates the switch is set to a different setting than indicated in Setup. Determine which setting
is correct, and then either turn off the system and change the jumper, or enter Setup and change
the VIDEO selection.

Press ESC to skip memory test


The user may press Esc to skip the full memory test.

Floppy disk(s) fail


Cannot find or initialize the floppy drive controller or the drive. Make sure the controller is installed
correctly. If no floppy drives are installed, be sure the Diskette Drive selection in Setup is set to
NONE or AUTO.

HARD DISK initializing


Please wait a moment...
Some hard drives require extra time to initialize.

HARD DISK INSTALL FAILURE


Cannot find or initialize the hard drive controller or the drive. Make sure the controller is installed
correctly.
If no hard drives are installed, be sure the Hard Drive selection in Setup is set to NONE.

MELET SCHLOESING Laboratoires - Osny - France D Page 156


Hard disk(s) diagnosis fail
The system may run specific disk diagnostic routines. This message appears if one or more hard disks
return an error when the diagnostics run.

Keyboard error or no keyboard present


Cannot initialize the keyboard. Make sure the keyboard is attached correctly and no keys are pressed
during POST. To purposely configure the system without a keyboard, set the error halt condition in Setup
to HALT ON ALL, BUT KEYBOARD. The BIOS then ignores the missing keyboard during POST.

Keyboard is locked out - Unlock the key


This message usually indicates that one or more keys have been pressed during the keyboard tests.
Be sure no objects are resting on the keyboard.

Memory Test :
This message displays during a full memory test, counting down the memory areas being tested.

Memory test fail


If POST detects an error during memory testing, additional information appears giving specifics about
the type and location of the memory error.

Override enabled - Defaults loaded


If the system cannot boot using the current CMOS configuration, the BIOS can override the current
configuration with a set of BIOS defaults designed for the most stable, minimal-performance system
operations.

Press TAB to show POST screen


System OEMs may replace the Award Software BIOS POST display with their own proprietary display.

FK1 library can not be loaded correctly with the
-
following warning message on the 24th line of the
-
screen:
-
-
- FK1 Lib NOT LOADED !
-
- CK1 Lib NOT LOADED !
-
-
That comes from the fact that the daughter
-
boards FK1 (Fluidic board) &/or CK1 (acquisition
