blank low.
Attention
 If choose reagents as blank media and set the high and low blank value, for determining the
quality of reagents.
▲ Samples
64
: The range of Sample absorption VS is 1-100 ul. Here, the range is
proposed VS ≥ 2 ul.
The importation of the equipment automatically diluted multiples is generally N ≥ 2.
Sample volume/ Dilution factor=testing amount; Test results automatically multiplied by the
dilution factor; the default is 1, means does not dilute, the routine set is "2."
In "Run set of parameters" under "reaction panels," select “half dilution” mode, the relations
between the largest number of diluted N and the diluted multiple D:
Diluted sample VDilution=VSoriginal sample/ DN≥1.6UL
Detergent dilution mode： Diluted sample VDilution = VSoriginal sample / D（Total volume is not
changed, the serum volume is decreased D * N times）.sample will be diluted by detergent first
Attention
 When setup dilution multiple, the sample amount can not less than 1.60 ul.
● Dilution mode, sample volume: 50ul, Diluted times:4（50ul serum + 150ul diluents =200ul）
Used for results of correction factor that has been
automatically diluted.
For example, ALT results for 300, diluted results for 310, so dilution correction factor can
calculated for 300/310 = 0.967.
Attention
● Dilution that the default value must be 1, can not be zero or any other characters.

Input range is 1-500 ul. Recommendations: 6 mm cuvette 200-220 ul, 8mm cuvette 350-400 ul.
Only double-reagent, the volumes of the second reagent, need to be entered, the range is 1-200 ul,
the second reagent need not to be added when set it for zero.
▲ Linear
Set up the linear range of reagents; please refer to the reagent

manual. The result exceed linearity value , it will be automatic diluted
Attention
 To ensure the equipment to dilute and re-examine, please set accurate linear range, so zero is
not allowed to set.
▲Reading of detection
It is used for serum blank, kinetic method. Testing Methods such as the kinetic, which needs to be
set "Assistant" and "Range". This feature is for reaction absorbance changes exceed the value of
the absorbance set of "scope". "Auxiliary testing" starting point generally choose the fourth point
after add serum and reagents. The number of assisted detection generally chooses five points. If
the absorbance response to change in value is lower than the absorbance value set in the "Range",
calculate results according to the normal points range setting of detection. Take ALT as an
example, if you want to open it when auxiliary test results are above the linear range. Linear range:
67
500, the calibration factor: 1746, absorbance value calculation: 500*60%/1746=0.1718，the low
absorption in the " Range " is set to: -0.1718, absorbance high value is set to: +0.1718. Testing
Methods such as the "End", choose the double reagent, and the serum as blank media, that is, test
absorbance value in the 1-15 point range when the first reagent and serum are added. Usually
select 1-3 in the 10-15 range, such as the choice of 10-11. Choose endpoint method”, ultra-linear
results will be automatically diluted.
Optional scope of detecting points is 0-54. DS-401/ DS-301/DS-261/DS-201/DS-161 effective
detection point range as shown in Figure 5-38/5-39/5-40: Before starting detection point is the
incubation period of time, the range of detecting point is reading point.
As an example for DS-201, set up checkpoints following steps: testing Period* Detection starting
point= Incubation time .For example: testing method is end-point method, incubation time for five
minutes, 14 seconds for the test cycle, and the testing start point is 5*60/14=22, Detection points
generally choose 1-3 points from the 23rd point. Detection points more than 1 for the equipment
will take average. If the testing end point is more than 54 after calculation, 54 points are elected. If
the test methods is the rate or two-point method：Such as single-detection reagent recommended
starting point is 12, the end point of detection 26, but should analyze different reagents response
curve at the same time, select the appropriate detection point range. Two- reagent test for
biochemical items, testing starting point should be set after 19:00.
Take DS-401/DS-301detection point for example set as follows: for example, a single-rate method
reagents, the detection point choose 25-35, double-reagent choose 35-45. If choose end-point
method for detecting the beginning point: Incubation time / test cycle+15.
Attention
 When test double reagents, it is called serum blank after adding reagents 1 and before adding
reagent 2 to choose detect of points.
 Detection of points should be set up under response curves, find a linear, select the effective
68
detection point above from the first point of adding serum.
 DS-401 Last test point is 34;ds301 Last test point is 52；ds201/261 Last test point is 44

testing conditions（ΔA/Min）=-0.20 ~ +0.20, the range is 500, As shown in Figure 5-42 as follows,
P1 is reagents incubated time, P2 is assisted detection time, P3 for the detection of the time. First
add the reagents, add samples from the 15th point, P2 is conditional of support detection, used to
determine whether reaction is excessive, see if the equipment is automatically diluted, map of the
Blue Line is the normal response curve, red color indicates that curve response is excessive,
obviously results will be very high. The judgment ways of the equipment: 1) in response test,
when│ Δ A / sub-│<0.20, equipment use the normal test point P3 to test results; 2)when 0.20 of
P2<│ΔA/Min│< linear value 500/F, P2 will be use of testing the results; 3)when │ΔA/Min│of
P2> linear value 500/F, four times the equipment is automatically diluted, and then re-judged by
the above method; If after the four-fold diluting │ΔA/Min│of P2 >linear value 500/F, equipment
will be diluted again, diluted 42=16 times, if the maximum number N of diluting is 3, diluted
multiples is D, the equipment can be diluted up to three times, maximum dilution multiple= DN .
Detergent dilution mode is different , Sample will be diluted by detergent first,
Result = Result diluted* D
For example ALT Item parameters, R1 ：S=400 ：40，diluted multiples of 4, auxiliary testing
conditions（ΔA/Min）=-0.20 ~ +0.20, the range is 500, As shown in Figure 5-42 as follows, P1 is
reagents incubated time, P2 is assisted detection time, P3 for the detection of the time. First add
70
the reagents, add samples from the 15th point, P2 is conditional of support detection, used to
determine whether reaction is excessive, see if the equipment is automatically diluted, map of the
Blue Line is the normal response curve, red colors indicate that curve response is excessive,
obviously results will be very high. Judgment ways 1) in response test, when│ Δ A / sub-│<0.20,
equipment use the normal test point P3 to test results; 2)when 0.20 of P2<│ΔA/Min│< linear
value 500/F, P2 will be use of testing the results; 3)when │ΔA/Min│of P2> linear value 500/F,
four times the equipment is automatically diluted, and then re-judged by the above method; If after
the four-fold diluting │ΔA/Min│of P2 >linear value 500/F, equipment will be diluted again,
diluted 42=16 times, if the maximum number N of diluting is 3, diluted multiples is D, the
N
equipment can be diluted up to three times, maximum dilution multiple= D

Solutions for being jammed sample & reagent probes:
Open “action test”. First of all, click “water pump on”; secondly, choose “valve on” and then click
“valve off”. Test several times. So, the conclusion will show samples & reagent probe is jammed
or not. Besides, we can judge conditions about the 2-way electromagnetic valve or by syringe
dispense water. And get it through by a needle and take “probe maintenance” or “probe cleaning”.
The way to discern whether the 3-way electromagnetic valve is well:
Solutions for improper the 3-way electromagnetic valve:
Method 1: Find out relevant dilutor syringe in the “action test” and turn on and off
electromagnetic valve come-and-go to notice sound. which means electromagnetic valve is well.
Or else, it’s damaged.
Method 2: Carry on “Device maintenance/wash pipeline” to observe whether there is water in the
cuvettes. If there is water, electromagnetic valve is in good condition. Or else, it’s not.
Solutions for the stability of detecting system:
Mix ALB and TP in 1:10 and then remove sample probes. (for accurate testing results). With TP
132
testing method to observe its repeatability. If CV is less than 0.65%, it means the detecting system
is stable.
Generally speaking, if the testing results are not normal, it is caused by the detecting system or
sample which can be judged in this way.
9.2 Corrections and replacements for common parts of the analyzer
In order to make the analyzer run normally, it’s necessary to correct or replace some parts for
effective maintenance.
Attention
 The user must be trained by professional engineers who carry on maintenance and
replacements.
9.2.1 The replacement to lamp

Being damaged or running for 2 years.
The steps as follows:
1, Turn off analyzer for 15 minutes
2, Open the back cover of the analyzer; find power adapter of lamp and cut it off.
3, Unscrew four screws on the cover of lamp and remove the cover and then remove the
chinaware housing for the lamp.
4, Unscrew four screws fixing the lamp and remove the damaged lamp.
5, Connect the chinaware housing of the lamp again and fix the lamp with the screw. And ensure
the shrapnel is in the right direction.
6, Fix the cover with four screws.
7, Connect the power adapter of lamp.
8, Close the back cover.
Warning
 Do turn off the power supply before replacing the lamp. Or else, it may damage the lamp
133
again.
 It is dangerous to take replacement when the analyzer shut down just now. Because, the
temperature is very high.
9.2.2 The replacement for the piston of injector

1, Enter into “Device run/ device maintenance”, and then click “Device reset’.
2, Open the window of the injector.
3, Unscrew the tail screw of injector’s piston.
4, Unscrew the screw for fixing the glass of syringe and then remove the glass and the piston.
5, Take out the old piston from the glass and clean the new piston with alcohol.
Smear the grease at the middle of the piston and insert the piston into the glass carefully and
ensure that the piston reach the top of the glass.
6, Adjust and fix carefully with screw. Ensure the piston plumbs down to the center of the glass.
As the figure 9-1, 9-2 show.
7, Draw the piston down about 3mm along the glass gently
8, Screw the screws lying in the two ends of piston tightly.
9, Close the window of dilutor syringe well with screw.
Figure 9-1
134
Figure 9-2
Attention
 Do not scratch the piston during installation. Or else, it is easy to make the piston leak air so
that testing results are not accurate.
 Ensure the piston is situated in the center of the glass. Or else, it may damage the glass or
reduce lifespan of the piston.
 While the piston has been used for three months, it must be smeared grease.
9.2.3 The replacement to probes

The method of replace samples probe is the same as the regent probe’s replacement. Concrete
steps as follows:
1, First of all, opens the cover of the probe and then cut off swathe for fixing the probe with pliers.
2, Unscrew the pinching screws with fixing wire and the compacting screw of the probe.
3, Remove the probe and the soft tube covered the probe.
4, Install a new probe and a soft tube. The structure of the soft tube is as the below figure 9-3
shows.
5, Fix the probe and the wire well with the compacting screw and swathe
135
6, Close the cover.
As the below Figure 9-4 shows:
Figure 9-3
Forcing screw wire 1 Probe tube swathe
Figure 9-4
Attention
 Ensure the installed probe is vertical.
The screw (M2*4) fixing the connecting line 1 of probe is not too long. Or else, the probe would
be pressed so that the probe can’t flex up and down result in crashworthiness is out of function
9.2.4 The replacement to cuvettes

While the cuvette has been smirched or damaged, it needs to take the testing “cuvette water blank
test”. If the blank absorbency of the cuvette exceeds 0.02A and still useless after it has been
cleaned, we suggest that replace it.
Attention
 The anterior side and the back side are both detecting interface. Therefore, do not touch the
two sides.
136
 The surface of the cuvettes placed must be level. Or else, it is easy to leave behind the water
in the cuvettes during the cleaning so that the testing results are not accurate.
 Use the same batch cuvettes as far as possible.
9.2.5 The replacements to fuse

1. Take the fuse out from the appendixes bag. To mention that the fuse of mainframe is 8A and
water heating system is 4A.
2. Turn off the power of analyzer and pull out the plug.
3. Pull the power wire from the power socket of mainframe and elicit the fuse housing.
4. Take out the damaged fuse housing and install a new fuse into fuse housing and then plug the
fuse housing into power socket.
5. Switch on the power plug.
Caution
 The operator must use fuse of appointed specification. Do not misuse the two fuses.
9.2.6 Adjustments for the sensitivity of liquid level detecting

While “liquid level detecting” is useless, it can be adjusted as following steps Uncover the back
cover with tool and find out the relevant circuit by the below Figure 9-5 and the flicker of
indicator. There are a-row binary dialers for each one,the value is larger,and liquid surface
induction is more sensitive . As the Figure 9-5 shows:
numerical value of sensitivity：4

1248
Attention:
New liquid detector board V2.1 was update, it needn’t adjust sensitivity, it have detector board and
pre- detector board , as show Figure 9-5.1
137
Figure 9-5
Figure 9-5.1
Caution
 The sensitivity of liquid level detecting is from 8 to 13.
9.2.7 Adjustments for GAIN & OFFSET

Take the 12-channel main board for example. The picture of main board is as the chart 9-6 shows:
12- Channel main board
138
Rs232
Offset(right)
Gain(left)
Chart 9-6
Seen from the Chart 9-6, lists every part and relevant function of the mother board in detail. The
6-core socket on the left is used to connect the detecting board. The initial voltage of detecting
board can be measured and amplified AD through the resistance on the right Thus, it can be
judged whether the detecting board and its initial voltage are in normal range. 340nm: voltage
0.2-0.4, 405nm: voltage 0.4-0.8 and so on. In the two-row resistor, the left arrange is the
adjustment to the GAIN and the right arrange is to adjust the OFFSET. The detecting channels
from up to down are: 340、405、450、505、546、578、620、670nm etc.. If individual is different,
perhaps the order is different. So, consider as bought analyzer as standard.
9.2.7.1 The adjustment to OFFSET
Enter into “Blank test” interface of the software after analyzer is reset. As the Figure 9-7 shows:
choose “Monitoring” and take out the cuvettes where each wavelength lies. (340nm begins with
cuvettes No. 58 for DS-401; 340nm begins with cuvettes No.24 forDS-261/201; DS-301 is
cuvettes No.8) and then put them into the black cups which are used for sheltering light. As the
139
Figure 9-7 shows, observe the real-time voltage and adjust the resistor of every channel of the
right arrange to the numerical value needed. If the numerical value varies greatly and exceeds 80,
it needs adjusting.
Relevant adjustments:
1, Examine capability of detecting board and check whether it is fixed well and installed suitably.
2, Examine the connecting wire or replace.
3, Replace the main board.
Generally speaking, the reaction curve is not desired and the absorbency of reagent is unusual
(more than 2.2) or repeatability is not good, it is necessary to check the OFFSET numerical value.
Figure 9-7
The steps of the adjustment to OFFSET, please refer to Figure 9-8
140
Figure 9-8
Cuvette Black Cuvette
The adjustment to OFFSET:
1, Take out the cuvettes;
2, Pull it into the black cuvettes for sheltering the light;
3, Adjust the resistor every channel on the right of the main board
It is suggested that OFFSET should be examined every 3 months. The usual arrange for 8 -channel
main board: 100---300nm, the wavelength 340nm is about 300nm; the other wavelengths are
about 150nm; to 12- channel main board: all the wavelengths are 20-80nm.
9.2.7.2 The adjustment to GAIN
Please refer to above the adjustment. After injecting water into cuvettes, observe real time voltage
and adjust resistor of every channel to reach necessary value 55000 and usual value is
30000~62000. As the below Chart 9-9 shows: (it needn’t the black cuvettes for sheltering the
light)
