3.7 LIS Setup and Connection

3.7.1 LIS Communication Setup

The communication function supports unidirectional and bidirectional transmission of analyzer


data to LIS (HIS). The communication setup is done on the DMU. Scattergrams and
histograms can be transmitted in both binary and bitmap modes.
Network port communication is supported. Connection to LIS as client end or server is
supported. There are dynamic graphs or progress bars indicating communication process. To
ensure data safety, exiting from the DMU software during transmission is not allowed. If you try
to exit from the DMU, the dialog box "Transmitting, please try again later..." will pop up.
The communication setup of the DMU is as follows.

Q: Under what circumstances will LIS connection fail?
A: When DMU sends inquiry to LIS, the message includes sample ID. LIS shall respond to the
inquiry with results (including mode and patient information) within 10s; if the respond times
out, prompt message will be given, and the saving operation or analysis flow will be
terminated.
Q: Why I cannot use the communication function?
A: Invalid or no LIS communication setup; DMU is the server and no LIS connection.
Q: Under what circumstances will the 2-way LIS inquiry fail?
A:
1) "No LIS/HIS connection available": users do not input legal connection settings, and
the communication cannot be started.
2) If the server fails to get started, the message "Fail to start up monitoring. Please
restart the DMU software or change the communication port, and then try again." will
be displayed.
3) "Analysis mode invalid": there is no Analysismode in the message received, or the
Analysis mode cannot be recognized.
4) "Communication overtime": response times out.

4.2 WBC Measurement

4.2.1 Flow Cytometry by Laser

Figure 4-1 WBC Measurement

After a predetermined volume of blood is aspirated and diluted by a certain amount of reagent,
it is injected into the flow cell. Surrounded with sheath fluid (diluent), the blood cells pass
through the center of the flow cell in a single column at a faster speed. When the blood cells
suspended in the diluent pass through the flow cell, they are exposed to a laser beam. The
intensity of scatter light reflects the blood cell size and intracellular density. The low-angle
scattered light reflects cell size, and the high-angle scattered light reflects intracellular density
(nucleus size and density). The optical detector receives this scatter light and converts it into
electrical pulses. Pulse data collected can be used to draw a 2-dimensional distribution
(scattergram). As shown in Figure 4-1, X-axis represents the intracellular density and Y-axis
the blood cell size. Various types of analysis data can then be obtained from the scattergrams.

Figure 4-2 DIFF channel scattergram

4-2
Introduction of Major Parameters

By analyzing the DIFF channel scattergram, the analyzer presents the Lym%, Mon%, Eos%
and Neu%.

4.2.2 Electrical Impedance Method

WBCs/BASs are counted and sized by the Electrical Impedance method. This method is
based on the measurement of changes in electrical resistance produced by a particle, which in
this case is a blood cell, suspended in a conductive diluent as it passes through an aperture of
known dimensions. An electrode is submerged in the liquid on both sides of the aperture to
create an electrical pathway. As each particle passes through the aperture, a transitory change
in the resistance between the electrodes is produced. This change produces a measurable
electrical pulse. The number of pulses generated signals the number of particles that passed
through the aperture. The amplitude of each pulse is proportional to the volume of each
particle.

Figure 4-3 Metering diagram


Each pulse is amplified and compared to the internal reference voltage channel, which only
accepts the pulses of a certain amplitude. If the pulse generated is above the WBC/BAS lower
threshold, it is counted as a WBC/BAS. The analyzer presents the WBC/BAS histogram,
whose x-coordinate represents the cell volume (fL) and y-coordinate represents the number of
the cells.

4.2.3 Derivation of WBC-Related Parameters

Based on the analysis of the DIFF channel scattergram and the Lym region, Neu region, Mon
region and Eos region, the analyzer calculates the Lym%, Mon%, Eos% and Neu%. Having
achieved the WBC count, the analyzer proceeds to calculate Lym#, Neu#, Mon# and Eos# per
the following equations while Bas# is obtained directly by the Electrical Impedance method
and express them in 103/uL.

4-3
Introduction of Major Parameters

4.3 HGB Measurement

4.3.1 Colorimetric Method

HGB is determined by the colorimetric method. The WBC/HGB dilution is delivered to the
HGB bath where it is bubble mixed with a certain amount of lyse, which converts
hemoglobin to a hemoglobin complex that is measurable at 530nm -535 nm. An LED is
mounted on one side of the bath and emits a beam of monochromatic light, which passes
through the sample and is then measured by an optical sensor that is mounted on the
opposite side. The signal is then amplified and the voltage is measured and compared to
the blank reference reading (readings taken when there is only diluent in the bath), and
the HGB is measured and calculated in the analyzer automatically.

4.3.2 HGB Parameters

The HGB is calculated per the following equation and expressed in g/dL.

HGB(g/dL)  Constant  Ln  

4.4 RBC/PLT Measurement

4.4.1 Electrical Impedance Method

RBCs/PLTs are counted and sized by the Electrical Impedance method. This method is based
on the measurement of changes in electrical resistance produced by a particle, which in this
case is a blood cell, suspended in a conductive diluent as it passes through an aperture of
known dimensions. An electrode is submerged in the liquid on both sides of the aperture to
create an electrical pathway. As each particle passes through the aperture, a transitory change
in the resistance between the electrodes is produced. This change produces a measurable
electrical pulse. The number of pulses generated signals the number of particles that passed
through the aperture. The amplitude of each pulse is proportional to the volume of each
particle.
Each pulse is amplified and compared to the internal reference voltage channel, which only
accepts the pulses of a certain amplitude. If the pulse generated is above the RBC/PLT lower
threshold, it is counted as a RBC/PLT. The analyzer presents the RBC/PLT histogram, whose
x-coordinate represents the cell volume(fL)and y-coordinate represents the number of the cells.

symbols in the fluidics diagram.

6.5.1 Mindray valves

 Symbol:

2-way valve 3-way valve

 Appearance:

2-way valve 3-way valve

Spring pole

 Function:

2-way valve: to build up or cut off a passage. When power off, the passage from the inlet of the
valve to outlet is cut off; when power on, the passage is built up.
3-way valve: to switch among passages. When power off, the public end and the NO (normally
open) end are connected; when power on, the public end and the N.O.(normally open) end are
connected.

The internal movement of the valves is driven by electromagnet and the restoration is driven
by the spring, so it is recommended not put the valves power-on for too long. When the
electromagnet valve is working, the spring pole will lower down, and it will rise to the initial
position when power off. You can touch the spring pole and feel the descending or ascending,
in order to determine whether it is in action.

Major functions:
1. Sample aspiration and dispensing. The ASP syringe and sample probe SPB works together to aspirate 33uL 2 of blood, and dispenses 9uL, 6uL and
52.08uL of blood into different channels.
2. Cleaning inside and outside of the sample probe. Cleaning inside of the sample probe can be done by DIL syringe, SV01, 02, and 03 valves working
together, it can also be done by SH syringe, SV13 and 14 valves working together. Cleaning outside of the sample probe is done by DIL syringe, SV02
and 03 valves working together. Waste is collected by the probe wipe and waste pump.
3. Aspirating and dispensing probe cleanser. When aspirating probe cleanser, SV13 and SV14 is electrified, the SH syringe aspirates 3.6mL of probe
cleanser from the sample probe SPB. The probe cleanser is stored in the reservoir T47 (marked in red in the figure above). When dispensing probe
cleanser, the sample aspirating assembly delivers the sample probe to the reaction baths (DIFF, WBC and RBC bath), SV13 and SV14 is electrified, the
SH syringe dispenses certain amount of probe cleanser to the counting bath.

6.6.2 WBC&HGB Channel

The structure of the WBC&HGB channel is as follows:


The blue lines are the flowing paths of diluent, the peach lines are the flowing paths of lyse, and the wine lines are the sample flowing paths (this rule applies to
all following figures in this chapter).

Refers to whole blood CD mode. For whole blood CBC mode, the volume is 24uL of blood, for predilute CD mode, the volume is 80uL of prediluted blood,
while for predilute CBC mode, the volume is 40uL of prediluted blood. If not otherwise specified, the mode in this chapter refers to whole blood CD mode.

6.6.2.1 WBC analysis


The diluent syringe dispenses diluent into the WBC bath along the blue paths, the sample probe dispenses blood sample into the WBC bath, and the lyse
syringe dispenses LH lyse into the WBC bath along the peach paths. The sample, diluent and lyse are mixed by bubbles generated by the pressure chamber
via SV12, and aspirated into the back bath by vacuum via the aperture (wine lines). The cells are measured when they pass the aperture, and the sample
volume is calculated from the analysis duration. After analysis, the WBC bath is drained by SV23 and the waste pump.

6.6.2.2 HGB analysis


The analysis principle of the HGB channel is colorimetric method. By comparing the intensity of the transmitted light through the background and the blood, the
HGB concentration can be obtained. The intensity of the transmitted light through the diluent is detected first, and during WBC analysis, the intensity of the

6-18

Leo(I) lyse is dispensed into the DIFF bath by lyse syringe via T11, Leo(II) lyse is dispensed into the DIFF bath by lyse syringe via T12. Bubbles are dispensed
from the pressure chamber to DIFF bath via SV10, after reaction, the sample is transmitted under the flow cell along the orange line in the figure. The sheath
fluid syringe is started to form sheath fluid along the blue lines in the figure. The sample is driven to the flow cell for analysis by the sample syringe. After the
analysis, the sheath fluid syringe cleans the flow cell and sample preparing tubes along the blue lines in the figure. The DIFF bath is drained by waste pump
and SV27.

Figure 6-4

The diluent syringe dispenses diluent into the RBC bath along the blue paths, the sample probe dispenses diluted blood sample into the RBC bath. The sample
and diluent are mixed by bubbles generated by the pressure chamber via SV11, and aspirated into the back bath by vacuum via the aperture (wine lines). The
cells are measured when they pass the aperture, and the sample volume is calculated from the analysis duration. After analysis, the RBC bath is drained by

SV24 and the waste pump.

6.7 Introduction to Sequences


Taking the CBC+DIFF analysis in the closed whole blood mode as an example:

6.7.1 Closed Whole Blood CD Mode Sample Analysis Sequence

The closed whole blood CD mode analysis sequence consists 3 parts:


Pre-piercing sequence, 5.6s
Piercing sequence, 4.4s
Analysis sequence, 60s

6.7.1.1 Pre-piercing Sequence


The fluidic actions are shown in the following figure.
0~1.2sSampling assembly moves from WBC bath up position to the sample aspiration position.
1.3~1.6sThe sample probe moves to position of the isolating bubbles.
1.7~1.9sV1 and V2 are opened, and the DIL syringe aspirates 50uL of isolating bubbles from the sample probe.
1.2sWaste pump LP2 is turned on to drain probe wipe waste pipe
3.5~4sThe SH syringe aspirated 450uL of diluent.

6.7.2 Closed Predilute CD Mode Sample Analysis Sequence

The closed predilute CD mode sample analysis sequence is almost the same as whole blood
sequence stated above, the major differences are:
1. Pre-piercing is not needed, so the pre-piercing sequence only involves a probe
descending action.
2. Since the sample of predilute mode has been diluted already before presented to the
analyzer, the aspiration volume is 80uL, half of which is dispensed to the WBC bath, and
the other half is dispensed to the DIFF bath.
3. There is no sample probe swing or cleaning action.

6.7.3 Autoloader Whole Blood CD Mode Sample Analysis

Sequence

The autoloader whole blood CD mode sample analysis sequence is almost the same as the
closed whole blood sequence stated above, the major differences are:
1. The aspirating position is at the autoloader track, not the sample compartment.
2. The pre-piercing sequence of autoloader mode may overlay with the last 10s of the main
analysis sequence

6.7.4 CBC Mode Analysis Sequence

Compared with the CD mode, the CBC mode analysis sequence does not involve fluidic
actions of the DIFF & optical channel, the rest of the sequence is almost the same with that of
the CD mode, with the following differences.
1. Aspiration volume The aspiration volume of whole blood CD mode is 33uL, while that of
the whole blood CBC mode is 24uL. The aspiration volume of predilute CD mode is 80uL,
while that of the predilute CBC mode is 40uL.
2. There is no action involving the DIFF bath, including dispensing of sample, LEO(I) lyse
and LEO(II) lyse, bubble generation of the DIFF bath, cleaning, etc.
3. There is no action involving the flow cell, such as preparing of sample, sheath fluid and
sample flow, sample preparing channel cleaning, etc.

7 Optical System

7.1 Overview of Optical System Principle


The optical system principle of BC-5390 is based on that of the flow cytometer: when the
stained cells pass the facula detection area under the influence of "Hydrodynamic focusing",
light scatter is produced after exposure of the a cell under light beam, where the forward
scatter reflects the volume of the cell, and the side scatter reflects the complexity of the
nucleus. Therefore, BC-5390 is able to differentiate different cells by collecting and analyzing
the forward scatter and side scatter, and presents the result using 2D scattergram. The optical
system is composed of the laser radiation module and scatter sensors.

7.2 Optical Path and Workflow of the Optical System


The optical path of BC-5390 optical system is shown in Figure 7-1.

The BC-5390optical system uses semiconductor laser (1) as the light source, which emits a
red laser beam of 670nm. The laser beam passes through the collimating lens (2) and gets
collimated, and then adjusted by cylindrical lens A (3) and B (4) which are placed orthogonally,
to form a flat elliptic laser beam of 15um*300um (@13.5%) going through the sample flow (6)
in the center of the flow cell (5).

7-1
Optical System

Figure 7-2 Laser facula through the flow cell

After the sample probe releases the white blood cells treated with reagent, the sheath flow
wraps the cells and makes them pass through the flow cell one by one, as shown in Figure 7-2.
The flat elliptic laser beam irradiates light on each white blood cell passing through the flow cell
(the red line shown in Figure 7-1).
After the light scatter comes out of the flow cell (5), it is collimated by posterior collimating lens
(6) into parallel light, and then split by the light splitter (7) into 2 scatter beams which are the
same in dimension. The forward scatter split by the light splitter passes through a forward
scatter diaphragm (8) and becomes the 2-5 degree scatter, and is then focused on the forward
scatter PD by the forward scatter focusing lens (9); the side scatter split by the light splitter
pass through a side scatter diaphragm (11) and becomes the 8-20 degree scatter, and is then
focused on the side scatter PD by the side scatter focusing lens.
The forward scatter and side scatter are transferred to electric signals by the PD, which are
then processed by the signal processing system based on which the 2D scattergrams are
generated, and thus the 5-part differentiation of white blood cells are achieved.

7.4 Optical System Status Determination


The BC-5390 optical system status is determined using 7um standard particle. The operation
procedures and determination criteria are as follows:
1. Get a vial of 7μm standard particles, mix it by shaking the vial gently, and then dispense
3-4 drops into a 1.5ml centrifugal tube. Dilute the solution in the centrifugal tube to 1ml,
cap the tube and mix it well to prepare the standard particle solution for status
determination, as shown in Figure 7-4;

7-3
Optical System

3. Select "Standard Particle Mode", and then click "Calculate". Check if the "FS Gravity
Center Position" falls in the range of 17.6±0.5, and "SS Gravity Center Position"
105.3±1.0. If not, enter the FS peak target (17.6) and SS peak target (105.3) in the
"Peak Target" fields, and then the instrument will automatically calculate the gain. Click
the "Gain Setup" button to apply the gain;
4. At the "Run" screen, run the 7un particle solution again, and then check if the "FS
Gravity Center Position" is 17.6±0.5, and the "SS Gravity Center Position" is 105.3±1.0.
Repeat Step 2-4 until these 2 valves falls in the respective range;
5. If the "FS Gravity Center Position" and "SS Gravity Center Position" of particle 1 meet
the requirements, check if the following requirements are met:
FS 0.1max Width (SD) ≤10.00
SS 0.1max Width (SD) ≤15.21
Check if the FS and SS gains displayed on the "Gain" setup" (Setup>General Setup>Gain)

7-4
Optical System

meet the following requirements:


FS Gain ≤150
SS Gain ≤220
6. If the requirements are met, the optical system status determination is finished, and the
result is Pass. If the requirements are not met, see the next section below.

7.5 Maintenance and Replacement of the Optical


System

 This product contains visible radiation or laser component. When servicing


the product, follow the instructions in this manual to avoid injury of your
eyes.

When the optical system test using standard particle fails or when error occurs, service is
needed. Service of BC-5390 optical system includes maintenance and replacement, where
maintenance refers to the cleaning, wiping procedures when there is no component damaged,
and replacement generally refers to the replacement of the whole optical system when there is
component damaged or maintenance failure (considering the shortage of service tools and the
complexity of the service procedures).

7.5.1 Maintaining the Optical System

The maintenance of optical system is usually used when there are errors like flow cell clog.
See the details below.

 Flow cell exterior wall needs cleaning

 Error presentation: the gravity center in the scattergram descends, FS and SS valves
in the gain setup screen slightly high, and the dots in the scattergram are more
sporadic (but still in a normal dispensing).
 Error confirmation: click "Adjust Laser" at the optical adjustment screen and make
sure the laser is turned off. Open the top cover and right door with a cross-headed
screwdriver, loosen the 6 screws fixing the optical system shielding cover to remove
the cover. Turn on the laser again at the optical adjustment screen. Avoid staring at
the laser beam. Check along the laser beam to see if there is brightened dot on the
exterior wall of the flow cell.

 Troubleshooting: if evident brightened dot is found, wipe the place with dust-free
cloth dipped with anhydrous alcohol until the dot disappears.
 Note:
1. Avoid staring at the laser beam in the maintenance process;
2. Do not touch the radiation-proof diaphragm or damage the flow cell assembly while
wiping;
3. Check if there is any evident brightened dot on the exterior wall of the flow cell after
wiping.

 Flow cell interior wall needs cleaning

 Error presentation: abnormal DIFF scattergram. The figures below show examples of
abnormal scattergrams of normal blood sample and standard particle.

 Error confirmation: click "Adjust Laser" at the optical adjustment screen and make
sure the laser is turned off. Open the top cover and right door with a cross-headed
screwdriver, loosen the 6 screws fixing the optical system shielding cover to remove
the cover. Turn on the laser again at the optical adjustment screen. Avoid staring at
the laser beam. Check if there is brightened dot on the interior wall of the flow cell. At
the meantime, place a white paper before the side scatter PD assembly, and check if
there is a ring in the focal facula, shown as follows:

Flow cell interior wall needs


cleaning (exterior wall also needs
cleaning in this example).

 Troubleshooting: if the flow cell interior wall needs cleaning, do the following to run
the self-maintenance program of the analyzer.

1. Click in the "Work Center" area at the right side of the IPU, and select "Service";
2. At the "Maintenance" screen, select "Soak DIFF Bath";
3. Follow the prompts to perform the automatic probe cleanser maintenance.
4. After the maintenance (about 20 minutes), switch to the "Run" screen, and follow the
steps prescribed in Chapter 7.4 "Optical System Status Determination" to run the 7um
standard particle, and check if the results fall into the reference ranges.
If the automatic maintenance does not solve the problem, and after removing the cover,
brightened dots are spotted on the interior wall of the optical system flow cell, follow below
steps to manually clean the flow cell with probe cleanser,

7-7
Optical System

1. Follow the steps described in "Error confirmation": open the top cover and right door,
loosen the 6 screws fixing the optical system shielding cover to remove the cover.
2. Take out 2 clean S-50 tubes or 3350 silicone tubes (length: about 10cm). Connect one
tube to the newly unpacked syringe, and the other one to the waste outlet connector of
the flow cell. Snip the plastic cable tie using a pair of diagonal pliers, and then remove
the flow cell tray using a screwdriver. Unplug the sheath fluid inlet tube, and plug the
tube which is connected to the syringe;
3. Draw the diluent from the flow cell assembly with the syringe, and then put the other end
of the tube connecting to the waste outlet into a small beaker. Inject a certain volume of
probe cleanser with the syringe, and make sure it is visible that the probe cleanser is
flowing into the flow cell.

Figure 7-11 Manual probe cleanser maintenance

4. After the flow cell is fully filled with probe cleanser, wait 10-15 minutes. Slightly draw the
fluid with the syringe, and check if the brightened dot on the interior wall disappears;
5. If the dot disappears, draw out the probe cleanser out of the flow cell assembly, and then
reset the tubing. In the PC software, click Menu>Service>Maintenance>Clean>Flow cell
to perform the flow cell cleaning until the "DIFF Particles Total" of the background count
"Special Info." becomes less than 50 (place the cursor on the background count result of
the "Review" screen, and then right-click the mouse to show the "Special Info.");
6. If the brightened dot still exist after manual cleaning, the optical system needs to be
replaced. See the next section for details.
 Note:
1. Generally speaking, if the scattergram distribution is similar to Figure 7 or it is judged
that the flow cell interior wall needs cleaning, perform automatic maintenance of the
flow cell first, and do not remove the cover for check until the automatic maintenance
fails or does not take effect;
2. Wear proper personal protective equipment during manual cleaning, and wear the
PVC gloves properly; do not drop the probe cleanser on the instrument or on the
clothes/skin of any people.

 Flow cell clog

 Error presentation: when flow cell clog occurs, the valve pressure ascends, and the
"Flow cell clog" error is reported by the instrument.
 Error confirmation: the error report of the instrument;
 Troubleshooting: click the "Remove Error" button to see if the error can be removed.

7.6 Optical System Gain Calibration


Optical system gain calibration is necessary when the maintenance or replacement of the
optical system finished, the analyzer is left unused for a long time, the ambient environment is
changed, or the analyzer has experienced a long-distance transportation, in order to make
sure the optical system can work properly. The calibration should be performed as instructed
below:
1. Select the venous whole blood mode (open-vial) for sample analysis, and run the R&D
control. After the analysis is completed, select the analysis data in the "Review" screen,
and then click the "Optical" button on top right to go to the optical adjustment screen,
2. Select "Control Mode" and click "Calculate" as shown in Figure7-15. The "FS Gravity
Center Position" of particle 2 should fall in ±1.94 of the control target, and the "SS
Gravity Center Position" should fall in ±2.6 of the control target. If one or both of the
valves are out of range, perform the next step of gain calibration.

Figure 7-15 Optical adjustment screen of control

3. Enter the FS and SS gravity center targets of the control into the "Particle 2 Peak target"
fields, and then the analyzer automatically calculate the gain valves needed, which are
displayed in the "Gain" column. Click the "Gain Setup" button, and the FS and SS gain
will be updated to the new gain valves.
4. Run the control again, and go to the "Optical" adjustment screen. Perform Step 2 to
confirm. If the valves are still out of range, repeat Step 1-3 until they fall in the respective
range.

8.4 Drive Board

8.4.1 Overview

The drive board is an auxiliary control board, its control commands come from upper modules,
such as digital control board. The drive board analyzes control commands from upper modules
and transmits them into bottom layer control signals to realize drive control of the moving parts
(sample collection assembly, syringe assembly), heat engineering parts (heater) and fluidic
parts (valves, pumps); it gathers temperature and position information of the analyzer or its
components via the sensors, and sends some or all of the information to the upper modules as
necessary. Its functional diagram is as follows:

8.5 Autoloading Board

8.5.1 Overview

The autoloading board realizes sample feeding, mixing and barcode scanning.

8.5.2 Function

1. Driving step motors


The autoloading board drives the following 5 step motors:
1) Mix mechanism X motor
2) Mix mechanism Z motor
3) Mix motor
4) X loading motor
5) Y feeding motor
The step motor drive is bipolar constant current half-step drive, the position of each step motor
is detected by the corresponding position sensor.
2. Electromagnet control
The electromagnet controls the opening of the sample compartment (manual closing).
3. Built-in barcode scanner control
The built-in barcode scanner reads tube barcodes and tube rack barcodes. The autoloading
board controls the built-in barcode scanner via MCU. The MCU communicates with the built-in
barcode scanner (UART) via serial port 1.
4. Position sensor and micro-switch status detection
There are 13 position sensors and 1 micro-switch in the autoloading board. Status detection of
position sensors and micro-switch is done by FPGA, the MCU inquires about the storage
status of the FPGA when necessary.
5. Parameter storage
Due to the production and installation deviation of the mix mechanism, initial position of the X
motor and mix motor of the mix mechanism need to be adjusted, the position parameters after
the adjustment are stored in the autoloading board.

8.17Analyzer Status Indicated by the Indicators


The analyzer status can be told from the following two aspects.
Analyzer power indicator: the power indicator is on the left plate, as shown in the following
figure. The power indicator is in static green after the power switch in turned on, which shows
the power supply of the analyzer is normal. If the indicator is off after the power switch is turned
on, that means the power supply of the analyzer is abnormal or the indicator is damaged, the
analyzer shall not be started until the problem is solved.

9.6 Sampling Assembly

 The sample probe tip is sharp and may contain biohazardous materials.
Exercise caution to avoid contact with the probe when working around it.

9.6.1 Structure Introduction

The sampling assembly is designed to aspirate, dispense, and mix the samples. The sample
probe moves in two directions:
1. X-Direction: go to the sampling, DIFF, WBC, RBC positions, and complete sample
mixing;
2. Y-Direction: complete sample fetching, sample probe cleaning, etc.

Figure 9-15 The structure of the sampling assembly

9-23
Mechanical System

X-direction mechanism consists of the horizontal bracket, X-direction guide bar, guide bar fixer,
synchronous belt and pulley, X-direction home position photocoupler, and motor. There are
notches on the horizontal bracket, each of which matches a position detection photocoupler to
detect the position.

Figure 9-16 The structure of the X-direction mechanism of the sampling assembly

There are 8 positions on the X direction for the sample probe, which are (from back to front):
RBC bath position, WBC bath position, CRP2# bath position, CRP1# bath position, DIFF bath
position, autoloading sampling position, CRP latex reagent position, and closed sampling
position.

9-24
Mechanical System

Figure 9-17 The structure of the Y-direction assembly

The sample probe is driven by the piercing slide. The rotation of the motor is transferred into
the linear motion by the lead screw nut set, which is the Y-direction motion guided by the
guiding axle. The Y-direction home position photocoupler is installed on the piercing bracket,
and the barrier of the piercing slide is used as the barrier of the photocoupler, in order to locate
the Y-direction positions of the sample probe.

9.6.2 Maintaining the Assembly

For piercing force deficiency in Y-direction (error 0228 is usually reported), follow the
instructions below:

 Check if any set screw fixing the Y-direction motor shaft on the lead screw is loose;

 Check if any screw in the piercing bracket is loose;

 Check if the assembly is well lubricated, and add some lubricant to the parts which have
sliding friction in Y direction (e.g. the ring contact surface of the Y-direction guide bar and
the piercing slide, lead screw nut set, etc.);

 Check if the Y-direction photocoupler or motor is damaged. Replace with a new one if
damaged.

For X-direction motion not in place (error 0201 is usually reported), follow the instructions
below:

 Check if the press bar of the fixing belt is loose;

 Check if the X-direction detection photocoupler comes into contact with the horizontal
bracket in the whole motion process, which damages the photocouplers or influence the

9-25
Mechanical System

proper operation of the photocouplers;

 Check if the X-direction photocoupler barrier comes into contact with the X-direction home
position photocoupler;

 Check if the assembly is well lubricated, and add some lubricant to the parts which have
sliding friction in X direction (e.g. the ring contact surface of the X-direction guide bar and
the piercing bracket, the contact surface of the horizontal bracket and the rotation stop
block, etc.);

 Check if the X-direction motor is damaged. Replace with a new one if damaged.

 The following sections introduce the replacing procedures of motors and photocouplers:

9.6.2.1 Replacing the X-Direction Home Position Photocouplers

9.8 Debug Screen Introduction


For closed models, if any part of the sampling assembly or the autoloader is replaced, it is
necessary to check and adjust the mechanical positions (Sample Probe Up Position, DIFF
Bath Up Position closed piercing position and Pincher pinching position.
The adjustment can be completed at the "Debug" screen.
Click "Menu→Service→Debug" to enter the "Debug" screen.

9-39
Mechanical System

Figure 9-28 "Debug" screen

Note 1: after clicking "Start", the assembly should be at the default position, not the adjusted
position; after clicking "Start", the button changes into "Save". The adjustment only takes effect
if you click "Save" after the adjustment. The "Check" button is used to simulate the actions in
normal sample analysis process. Remember to remove the fixtures as instructed.
Note 2: Click the "Coarse Adjust" (bottom left) button to switch to "Fine Adjust", and click again
to switch back. When the button shows "Coarse Adjust", it means the current state of motor
adjustment is "Fine Adjust", when the motor moves 2 steps by one click; when the button
shows "Fine Adjust", it means the current state of motor adjustment is "Coarse Adjust", when
the motor moves 20 steps by one click.
Note 3: in the horizontal movement of the sampling assembly, the stride of one step is 0.16mm;
in vertical movement, 0.04mm.

9.9 Adjusting the Position of the Sample Probe


The adjustment of sample probe positions includes the adjustment of:
 Sample probe up position (probe wipe position)
 DIFF bath up position
 Autoloading piercing position
 Closed piercing position
Note: the "Sample Probe Up Position" variation is included in the formula of autoloading and
closed piercing position step calculation. Therefore, sample probe up position adjustment
is of the first priority; if you adjust the autoloading/closed piercing position first, further
adjustment is needed after the sample probe up position adjustment, since the change of the
sample probe up position will lead to the change of the autoloading and closed piercing
positions.
