General information

1.1 Intended use

The content of this Short Guide only applies to the Mobile Scanner Gryphon™ GM4100-HC.

Figure 1: Mobile scanner in base station

1.2 Preface

Figure 2: … in mounted retainer

The optional mobile scanner Gryphon™ GM4100-HC facilitates the registration of virtual work place names during routine operation on the cobas p 612 and cobas p 612. At this, manual inputs are substituted by scanning a barcode label attached to the rack.

By working with virtual work place names, you can assign individual designations to racks and subracks during operation, independently from their original work place name. Especially when dealing with labeled archive racks, this can be used to facilitate the samples' retrieval by adding the label's content (barcode or textual name) to the work place name within the LI-record towards the host.

NOTICE

The installation described below may be performed by a trained

service technician

or likewise qualified personnel only!

General information

1.3 Safety guidelines

Roche PVT GmbH explicitly points out that all safety regulations concerning handling devices of the protection class I (protective earth conductor) must be heeded. It should be strictly avoided to work within the housing with the mains switch turned on. If this would become necessary regardless, the work must be carried out by trained and qualified personnel only, abiding all safety regulations.

DANGER

Electrical Shock!

Disconnect the mains power supply before working inside the device.

Also make sure that it cannot be reconnected during your work.

Among others, these parts are supplied by mains:

Rear side of the connector panel (mains connector)

Line

Power Distribution Module (PDM)

The following instructions should strictly be heeded when putting the system into operation and when repairs are carried out by a service technician:

Do not remove any parts of the housing, before it is ensured that the system has been disconnected from the mains!

When specific service or repair work on the internal components has to be carried out with the system still being connected to the mains, be careful not to touch any live parts or connectors inside the housing.

While the system is in operation, a disconnection or loose contact on the protective earth conductor inside or outside the instrument constitutes a potentially lethal danger. Intentional disconnection or removal of the protective earth conductor therefore is prohibited.

1.4 Disposal

The device must be disposed of in compliance with the respective national and international laws and regulations.

Routine operation

As soon as the system has finished its initialization at the start of a work cycle, the system opens any drawer of the output sorter containing a (sub)rack which utilizes virtual work place names

(refer to chapter 3.4 for details). A message will pop up requesting you to enter the racks' virtual work

place name.

Figure 17: scanner input request

Utilize the mobile scanner to read the barcodes on the corresponding racks. Close the drawer(s) again in order to resume operation.

NOTICE

The barcode must not contain blanks or special characters (like *, /, ; ?,...).

With every change of an affected rack during operation, a renewed input is necessary for the replacement rack. However, the system will not allow you to reuse virtual work place names previously assigned. Only after a data reorganization ('Routine' ► 'Clear Data'), the list of already used virtual work place names is deleted, and any previously used designation will be available again.

Virtual rack names, along with their original counterparts, are stored in the 'vname' subdirectory and also shown on the 'Routine' ► 'Sorting Lists' report view.

In addition to the original work place name, virtual work place names are transmitted to the host as part of the LI-record as well. The record will show both the original name and the virtual one, separated by a circumflex "ˆ".

Subracks

If the affected work place has been divided into multiple subracks, the procedure described above remains the same. But instead of the virtual work place name utilized for the whole work place, now each subrack's virtual name will be required.

Configuration of the mobile scanner

5. Configuration of the mobile scanner

The information below is, in a more general form, also contained within the original DATALOGIC

Product Reference Guide as well.

NOTICE

Complete reconfiguration is not mandatory for the first use of the mobile scanner. If a complete reconfiguration should be required, please refer to the DATALOGIC Product Reference Guide; page 33 ’Restore Custom Defaults’.

5.1 Connecting to the base station

Before configuring the mobile scanner it is necessary to link it with the base station.

Optional

: If the reader was previously linked to another base station, you must first scan the Unlink action command before relinking to the new base station (see DATALOGIC Product Reference Guide; page 24).

To link the mobile scanner and the base station, press the trigger to wake it and place it on the base station.

Next, proceed to the corresponding section in this manual to configure any desired settings and features associated with that interface.

5.2 Keyboard settings

Since the scanner's base station is connected to the system by means of a keyboard wedge, the keyboard must be set as well. Use the mobile scanner to read the respective barcodes.
