IMPORTANT! CAUTION! CAUTION! IMPORTANT! The following warnings are used throughout the manual for safety reasons (warnings beginning WARNING, DANGER) or to allow optimum use of the VIDAS system (warnings beginning with CAUTION or IMPORTANT). Read through these notes careffully before using your VIDAS system. The date and time must be correct. The VIDAS software depends on these parameters to function correctly. After the date has been accepted, a series of figures is displayed. After initialization, the message in figure 2-5 appears. (Page 2-9) It is very important to respect the required volume indicated in the technical sheet of the tests. (Page 2-17) Itis very important that all of the SPRs are properly placed in the SPR block. The VIDAS Module cannot detect the presence or absence of SPRs. The prepared sample and Reagent Strip may be wasted if you do not follow this step. (Page 2-18) Make sure the SPRs are in sections before you start the work list. (Page 3-22) Do not enter Patient ID's of patients in the Patient Queue. The program will enter them automatically. (Page 3-36) VIDAS/VDM Procedures Manual v8 0234 See ViWarnings IMPORTANT! WARNING! CAUTION! IMPORTANT! Make sure that the modifications have been saved correctly. To do so, it is imperative that you print a fill report, when you create several Work Lists, and then check the following: - Patient ID - Patient Name - Sample ID ~ Assay Code and Dilution Factor If any of the above data is incorrect, use the "Modifying the Work List” Menu to correct it. (Page 3-43 Before you perform any decontamination procedures, please adhere closely to these precautions to minimize health risks. (Page C-2) Be careful not to allow any disinfectant solution to spill into the electrical components of the instrument. (Page C-2) Do not use a spray cleaner of any type on the instrument.

How to use this Manual Introduction Scope of the Manual This manual covers a set of procedures for the major functions of the VIDAS system. This includes the VIDAS software and selected procedures for the computer. With these procedures you can perform all the functions required to run a test on the system, including «System and software configuration «Entry of required data © Creation and processing of Work Lists «Generation of reports ‘As you become more familiar with the system, you will learn that some of the programs contain a level of flexibility that allows several modes of opera- tion. While procedures for some of these modes are included in the manual, a complete set covering all possible operations was not feasible. VIDAS7VDM Procedures Manual Vi 0254 TATIntroduction How to use this Manual Organization of the Manual Following this chapter is Chapter 2, Getting Started. It contains an overview of the system. Chapters 3 through 9 are each dedicated to a specific menu in the VIDAS system. All procedures in a chapter relate to system functions found on that menu. The structure of each chapter is the same. There is an introductory section containing the following material: List of procedures in the chapter List of function keys used in the procedures * Asection called “Where to Begin,” which shows how to find in the VIDAS menu system the procedures in the chapter The procedures follow the introduction. Some of the procedures are divided into sub-procedures. Following the procedure chapters are the appendices, which contain the _ following information: © Appendix A provides specifications for the Test Kitand VIDAS Module. © Appendix B lists the assays and their corresponding codes. * Appendix C provides a preventive maintenance schedule for VIDAS equipment. © Appendix D lists alphabetically error messages that could appear on the User Interface portion of the VIDAS screens, along with explanations of those messages. Following the appendices is a glossary of terms, and a special section on the operation of system's computer. VIDAS/VDM Procedures Manual v6 02.54How to use this Manual Finding Topics or Procedures Finding Topics or Procedures There are four devices in the manual to help you find what you are looking for. The first three are used to find procedures and the last, the Index, is used to search for topics. Table of Contents The main table of contents for the manual is located ‘on page V-1 thru V-4, in the material preceding this chapter. It lists each chapter and the procedures within each chapter. List of Figures Pages V-5 to V-6 contain a list of the figures of the manual. Warnings All the warnings in this manual are grouped together on pages V-7 to V-8. They should be read carefully before intervening in any way on your VIDAS system. Graphic Symbols This "visual lexicon” of the standard symbols used for our systems can be found on page V-9. Chapter Contents Every chapter containing procedures begins with a mini table of contents specifically for the chapter. . These tables also list any sub-procedures that may be present. Page Headers Every page in the manual has a header and a footer. Page numbers are found in the footer, but the headers also contain a device for finding a procedure. A header is made up of two parts. One is the chapter title. This title is always found on the inside part of the page, where it is attached to the binder. The outside portion of the header contains | the title of a procedure. This title can be found on every page that includes the procedure. It is located on the outside of the page so that you can “thumb through” pages to locate a procedure. | Index A standard topical index is located at the back of . the manual. Use it to locate a procedure or a | particular topic that may be part of a procedure. VIDAS Procedures Manual v3 0234 TH‘Typographic Conventions How to use this Manual Typographic Conventions The following typographic conventions are used throughout the VIDAS Procedures Manual. The ENTER Key An instruction to use this key ALWAYS takes the form Press . NOTE: On some data terminals, this key may be labeled “RETURN.” The function of the two keys is identical. Function Keys Function keys include all control keys, the ESCAPE key, and the SHIFT key. They are capitalized and enclosed in angle brackets. Example: U, , The control key, , works like the key. You press the key labeled “CTRL” while pressing the other designated key. Instructions for using function keys ALWAYS start with “press.” Example: Press P to print the screen, Data Entry Data entered into the system via the keyboard or the optional bar code reader is ALWAYS shown in bold italics. Instructions for making a data entry begin with “type,” and conclude with “press .” Example: Type the Work List ID number and press . Exception Single-key entries may not require pressing . Such entries begin with “press” and are enclosed in angle brackets. Example: Press to quit. 4 VIDAS Procedures Manual vi 02.94How to use this Manual Typographic Conventions References References to the VIDAS Reference Manual or to other sections in this manual are denoted by a star. Notes and Cautions NOTES are separate paragraphs containing special information. A CAUTION is used to warn you about a possible hazard or about other extremely important information. VIDAS Procedures Manual va 029 TS |Procedures How to use this Manual Procedures Several elements are used in the procedures. Each relates to what you see on your data terminal as you use a program.

There are two types of prompts. One is usually in the form of a question and asks for data to be entered. In the procedure these prompts are indented and in a different type face. For example, Enter the Work List ID The other type of prompt is rarely written in the procedure but is seen on almost every screen in a program. This is the function key prompt. It has this name because it tells you which function keys are active at that point in a program, and what each one does. These prompts are always displayed in reverse video on the bottom line of the data terminal screen. For example, reer Some screen prompts have defaults, entries already programmed into the system. Defaults are enclosed in square brackets. Example: Do you want a fill report (y/n) Cy]. (y/n) indicates the acceptable entries. {y] is the default. To ask for a fill report you can type a y and press , or simply press to accept the default. A procedure consists of a series of steps. These are clearly labeled and numbered. The first sentence of each step is the instruction for what you should do. The remaining text usually describes what happens after you perform the instruction.

Figure 2-1 VIDAS Screen While you are using the VIDAS, the screen contents change. However, practically all screens have one thing in common.’ The screen is divided into two portions, the Status Summary (top portion) and the User Interface (bottom portion). IDASTVDM Procedures Manual v6 0294Getting Started Using the VIDAS Screens Status Summary User Interface This portion of the screen gives you the status of the VIDAS Module. Most of this section is composed of a table representing the five Sections, labeled “A” through “E,” and the six Positions, labeled “POS 1" through “POS 6." This area displays the Work Lists that represent the tests you run in the system. The column labeled Status shows the progress of each Work List as it runs. This field is also used to display error codes and is an integral part of the VIDAS troubleshooting system. Finally, there are two fields in the first row. On the left is the Module Status field. Normally, this field displays “OK,” showing that the VIDAS is working properly. In the event of a problem, error codes are displayed. The other field is the current date and time. This field is updated whenever any portion of the Status Summary screen changes. This portion of the screen is where you interact with the VIDAS software. It displays all of the VIDAS menus, but it is also where you see the various messages, fields, and prompts that are the normal parts of the system. All of the entries that you make into the system therefore appear here.
