Prologue
This service manual is based on the basic version of CoaDATA 2001/4001.
This version is the basis for all written documentation and drawings.
Program version V 1.12 Release 30.03.2000 is the basis for the software.
Modifications due to further development of this product might be possible.
This technical documentation has been developed for skilled technicians only. It shall enable the technician to
service the analyzer. It cannot replace a thorough service training.
Ahrensburg, June 2001
Rev. C 0.5
Purpose
CoaDATA 2001/4001 is a further development of CD2000/3000. It is an opto-mechanical coagulation analyzer
based on the turbodensitometrical measuring principle.
All routine coagulation tests can be run on this analyzer.
Instrument description
CoaDATA 2001/4001 is modularized.

The user communicates via display and enters all settings by the membrane keyboard.
The measuring channels are selected by the keys CH1 to CH4.Cuvettes are detected automatically.
The menu is selected by the < and > keys as well as the mode, Esc and Enter key.
Parameters are entered by the number keys.
The measuring channels are heated to 37,4°C in a thermal block. In this block there are 4 additional positions for
reagent bottles and 4 cuvette wells per channel.
In order to print the results a thermal printer is integrated into the instrument.
On the back side of the instrument is the socket for 115/230 V, 60/50 Hz power supply. Above the socket is the
switch for the power supply. I is switched on, O is switched off.
It is mounted in one module together with the voltage selector and the fuse holder.
On the back side of the instrument there is also a RS232 port for data communication with a check box or an
external PC.
Rev. C 0.6
Security directions
Check whether the voltage selector is in correct position

before connecting the instrument to the mains.
Use only power cables with ground connection to connect the instrument
to the mains.
Use only power sockets with ground connection.
Never interrupt the ground connection!
Make sure the instrument is not exposed to humidity, explosive gases and
magnetic interferences.
Pull the power socket before opening the instrument.

The service mode in the CD2001 / CD4001 gives you the possibility to check the individual modules and
funtions.
It can be accessed by authorized staff like the service technicians only.
The service routine is part of the operating software installed in the analyzer. According to the drivers used in the
installed software the individual functions can be tested.
Functions
The service mode has several test and calibration functions.
Test functions
1. optic test
2. mixer test
3. stirrer motor test
4. heating test
5. RS232 test
6. keyboard test
7. display test
Calibration functions
1. calib. temperature
2. default parameters
Rev. C 2.1
Access to the service mode

The service mode is part of the installed software. A special number code grants access for the technician. This
code can be entered only after the instrument has been switched on.

Labor GmbH
- Each key stroke is confirmed by a beep tone.
- It is not possible to correct the entry.
- To repeat the number code the analyzer has to be switched off and on again.
If the number code was entered successfully the service mode will be opened. It will be displayed as follows:
SERVICE select:

phot 768 768 768 768
By pressing the Enter key the parameters for the next channel can be entered.
In this function the reference value for the LED is not a fixed lamp voltage.
It is rather a PWM • signal.
The lamp intensity canNOT be regulated with this test.
The photo transistor signal depends on the instrument. There may be deviations between left and right channel.
Exit this function
By pressing the ESC-key once this function can be exited.

The LEDs remain switched on.

Dipping- / Piercing sensor TE Typ K
Probe tube 110x4mm
Adaptor for TE pair Type K
2. Preparation
- Fill 400 µl Aqua-Bidest into the lower cuvette well on the right side of the incubation block so
that 2/3 is filled.
- Put the dipping sensor into this well.
Calibration
CALI: intern: 37.4

1. Wait until the temperature has stabilized to 37.4 on the internal display.
2. Read the actual temperature of the thermal block from the digital multimeter and enter via the
keyboard numbers.
It will be displayed in the external field automatically.
The decimal point can be entered by pressing the „>„ key.
Press Enter to confirm. The calibration value will be set in the analyzer
automatically and will be displayed in the internal line.
3. Wait again until the temperature has stabilized to 37,4 in the internal line.
The displayed ntc value will show you whether the instrument heats up or cools off in order
to reach 37,4°C.
Rising values mean 'cool off', falling values mean 'heat'.
4. If the value in the internal line has stabilized to 37,4 it must be compared to the
digital multimeter. If the values deviate repeat this procedure from item 2above.
If both values are identical finish calibration and save by pressing the ESC key.

UTILITIES menu What for?
The user mode in the CD2001 / CD4001 has several functions which can be accessed by the user as well as the
service technician. This is the utilities menu.
Here the instrument can be adapted to the individual needs, the temperature can be calibrated and the instrument
parameters can be printed.
With a security code the utilities menu can be protected against unauthorized access.
Each operating software has routine standards installed on the analyzer. Depending on the installed software
version the parameters of the analyzer can be set.

How to mount the membrane keyboard
- When mouting the membrane keyboard it is necessary to remove the display first.
Follow the instructions in „Demounting the display“.
- Degrease the adhesion surface area.
Attention: Do not remove the protective film from the adhesive yet.
- For trial put the membrane keyboard into the hollow of the housing top.
- Adjust the membrane keyboard in such a way that it is well-centered. Remember this position!
- Now remove the protective film only in the area of the display window. Then remove the protective film
from the adhesive. Make sure that it has been removed completely.
- Now take the membrane keyboard into one hand and, with the other hand, put the connection cable
through the display opening in the housing.
- Position the foil into the hollow with both hands.
- Carefully affix the foil from the vertical center to the housing.
- Press it tightly from the center to the outer edges.
Note: Each membrane keyboard can be affixed just once. Detaching it might lead to functional
problems.
Rev. C 3.12
Hints how to assemble the instrument
Before finally assembling the instrument pay attention to the following:
- The fuses for the power supply unit have the proper value.
- All screws have been connected tightly.
- All cables have been connected properly in the housing bottom.
- All cables have been connected properly in the housing top.
- The earth conductors are in proper condition.
- No loose parts are in the analyzer.
- Plug the cables to the card reading board onto the respective pins on the main board.
- Put the clip on this plug so it won't loosen.
- Plug the cable to the printer board onto the respective pins on the main board.
- Put the clip on this plug so it won't loosen.
- Check the correct position of the voltage selector and the fuses before switching on the analyzer.
