Hazards
Introduction
The c4000 is designed for optimal operator safety; however, this does not reduce the importance of safety awareness where hazards exist. This section
describes the types and locations of potential hazards that could cause physical harm or damage to the laboratory environment, or where failure to follow
instructions may result in instrument failure or generation of erroneous patient results. Warnings are inserted throughout this manual to alert Field Service
Representatives (FSRs) to potential hazards.

Hazard Signal Words


Standard warning conventions, including hazard signal words and symbols, are described below.
 

Signal Word Definition

Denotes an immediate hazard which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury
DANGER!   or death. This signal word represents the highest level of any hazardous situation.

Denotes a hazard which could result in moderate to serious personal injury.


WARNING

Caution   conditions or activities that could interfere with proper functioning or performance
of the instrument.

Denotes operator or service information.


Note  

Safety Icons and Hazard Symbols


Safety icons in this manual and on the c4000 identify potentially dangerous conditions. Field Service Representatives must recognize the icons and
understand the type and degree of potential hazard. The following icons may be used with text or in lieu of text. If text accompanies the icon, it describes the
nature of the hazard and is labeled with DANGER, WARNING or CAUTION. In some situations, instrument labels refer Field Service Representatives to the
manual for specific information.

Indicates the material is Toxic (T) or Very Toxic (T +).

Indicates the material is Harmful (Xn) or an Irritant (Xi).

Indicates the material is Corrosive (C).

Indicates the material is Dangerous for the environment (N).

Electrical Hazards
The c4000 does not pose uncommon electrical hazards if installed properly and operated without alteration and connected to a power source that meets
required specifications. Refer to Electrical, Power, and Heat Output Specifications in System Specification for details.
Basic electrical hazard awareness is essential to the safe operation of any system. Only qualified personnel should perform electrical servicing. Elements of
electrical safety include, but are not limited to the following:
• Inspect electrical cabling into and on the c4000 periodically for signs of wear and damage.
• Turn the instrument OFF before disconnecting the power cord and before servicing any electrical or internal components.
• Determine the cause of a blown fuse or thrown circuit breaker and correct the problem before attempting to resume operation of the equipment.
• Only use replacement fuses of the specified type and electrical rating.
• Verify the power to the instrument is turned OFF. Be aware that a high voltage charge may remain on the power supply with the power OFF.
• Use an electrically insulated tool to disconnect the power supply and short both male pins to the instrument chassis.
• Keep liquids away from all connectors of electrical or communication components.
• Unplug the instrument before clean up of major liquid spills.
• Make sure hands are dry prior to touching any switches or outlets.
• Keep the floor dry and clean under and around the c4000.
• Use only approved power cords and electrical accessories, such as those supplied with the instrument, to protect against electric shock.
• Connect power cords only to properly grounded outlets.
• It is recommended that a ground fault circuit interrupter be used when working in a wet environment.
Mechanical Hazards
The c4000 is an automated system that operates under computer control. As with most automated equipment, there is potential for injury and bodily harm
from moving mechanical components whenever the instrument is in operation. The c4000 minimizes mechanical hazards by providing guards to protect
against accidental contact with moving components.
The c4000 requires accurate positioning of all samples, reagents, calibrators, controls and consumables before executing any program. If safeguards must
be removed or disconnected during setup and testing procedures, use caution. Stay a safe distance away from the moving components: fast-moving parts
may cause injury. Always replace the safeguards upon completion of setup and testing procedures. It is never acceptable for instrument operators to reach
into the instrument when it is in an operating mode. Should intervention be necessary during a run, the run should be interrupted according to instructions
defined in the operations manual.
Field Service Representatives of the c4000 may be potentially exposed to mechanical hazards when working on the following functional groups or
subsystems:
• C2 Reaction Carousel
• D1 Reagent Supply Center
• D2 Reagent Supply Center 2
• E4 Wash Solution Pump
• E5 ICT Reference Pump
• E6 ICT Aspiration Pump
• E7 Inner Probe Wash Pump Bellows
• E8 H.C. Waste Pump Peristaltic
• E9 Cuvette Wash Pump, Bellows
• G1 Sample Syringe Drive
• G2 Reagent Syringe Drive
• R1 Mixer Assembly
• R2 Sample Pipettor
• R3 Sample Pipettor Head
• R4 Reagent Pipettor Elevator
• R5 Reagent Pipettor Head
• R6 Cuvette Washer Assembly
• R7 ICT Assembly
• S1 Sample Carousel
• Robotic Sample Handler (RSH)
Injury may result in the event of an instrument malfunction or an unexpected sequence of mechanical component movements. Basic elements of mechanical
equipment safety include but are not limited to:
• Never bypass or override a safety device unless during setup or testing activities
• Never operate the instrument without protective covers and barriers in place unless during setup or testing activities
• Never perform manual tasks on the work surface of the c4000

hypochlorite).
5. Dispose of spilled and contaminated material in accordance with the facility’s waste disposal procedures.

Instrument or Part Decontamination


Any part subject to user handling (for instance: keyboards, printers, monitors, disk drives, front panels, etc.) requires decontamination prior to servicing or
shipment. When handling or decontaminating spare parts for shipping or repair, use safety precautions as listed below.

Caution Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (protective eyewear, gloves, lab coat) while performing decontamination
activities.

1. Remove all specimens, reagents, controls, calibrators, etc. from the instrument.
2. Cycle sodium hypochlorite solution (chlorine bleach) through the fluid pathway (including probes, if applicable) that contacted the human-sourced
material or products containing potentially infectious material. Allow the solution to stand for a minimum of 10 minutes. If a chlorine bleach solution
cannot be used, cycle buffer or water through the fluid pathway to thoroughly flush the fluid pathway.
3. Remove all waste materials from the instrument, if present.
4. Rinse waste containers with 0.1% sodium hypochlorite or other suitable disinfectant prior to shipping or disposal.
5. Wipe down the surface of each instrument and component with a detergent solution followed by an appropriate disinfectant, such as 0.1% sodium
hypochlorite.

Note Under normal circumstances, printed circuit boards do not require decontamination. Field Replaceable Units (FRUs) enclosed inside the skins
of computer and peripheral equipment are not considered contaminated. Decontamination may affect the performance of a printed circuit
board or internal computer component.

Waste Handling and Disposal


It is the responsibility of each facility to label all waste containers and to characterize its waste stream to ensure the waste is disposed in accordance with
appropriate waste disposal regulations.
Dispose of sharps in an appropriately labeled, puncture resistant and leakproof container.

Products That Contain Thimerosal or Mercury


Some reagents, calibrators and controls contain thimerosal or mercury and may be considered hazardous by various environmental regulatory agencies. Do
not directly sewer waste fluids that contain thimerosal or mercury.

Products That Contain Guanidine (Thiocyanate)


Do not mix oxiding agents, such as sodium hypochlorite (chlorine bleach), with liquid waste. Toxic gases may be generated.

Chemical Hazards
Field Service Representatives may be exposed to hazardous chemicals when handling reagents, calibrators, controls, or liquid consumables (including
bleach). Exposure to hazardous chemicals is minimized by following instructions provided in the assay Package Inserts and Material Safety Data Sheets
(MSDS). Exposure levels are further reduced by the design features of the instrument when it is used properly.

Precautions
In general, observe the following precautions when handling chemicals:
• Consult Material Safety Data Sheets for safe use instructions and precautions.
• Avoid contact with skin and eyes. If contact with material is anticipated, wear impervious gloves and protective eyewear and clothing.
• Always maintain good housekeeping. Do not eat, drink or store food and beverages in areas where chemicals are used.
• If irritation or signs of toxicity occur after exposure, seek medical attention.
Hazard symbols that appear on c4000 product labeling are accompanied by Risk (R) and Safety (S) numbers representing specific risk and safety phrases
defined by applicable European Community Directives. The risk and safety phrases describe precautions used when working with a particular chemical or
chemical mixture. Refer to the corresponding phrases indicated in the Package Insert or similar document for all (R) and (S) numbers that appear on product
labeling. Other country-specific warning and precautions may be included on the labeling.

Sodium Azide
Some products contain sodium azide. Observe the following precautions when using products that contain sodium azide:
• Do not mix any chemical or product with a pH below 6 with solutions or residues that contain sodium azide (such as wash buffer). Sodium azide
releases hydrazoic acid, a very toxic and pungent-smelling gas when the pH is lower than 6.

CautionThe pre-trigger solution has a pH lower than 6. Allowing the pre-trigger solution to contact wash buffer or dried wash buffer residue may result
in the release of hydrazoic acid, a very toxic and pungent-smelling gas. Care must be taken to clean up any spills or residue that may have
occurred due to leaking components (ex. pumps in the pump bay) identified during servicing of the instrument.

• Flush drains thoroughly with water several times a day to prevent potentially explosive metal azides from forming on lead, copper or brass
components or on solder in laboratory plumbing if product and/or instrument waste is released to a drain. Detailed information about azides in
laboratory drains is available in Current Intelligence Bulletin No. 13 Explosive Azide Hazard (August 16, 1976), a publication issued by the U.S.
National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), at cdc.gov/niosh.

A copy of the bulletin is also available on the Abbott Diagnostics Global internet site at abbottdiagnostics.com (select the International region),
under Support - Technical Library - Other Reference Documents, or by contacting your Abbott representative.
Physical Hazards
Safe practices should be observed while working with the following physical hazards to avoid potential injuries.

Sharps and Probes


In general, the use of sharps and glassware should be minimized.
The probes are sharp and may be contaminated with infectious materials. Avoid contact with these components and handle them cautiously in order to
prevent injury. Use mechanical means to remove contaminated broken glassware.
When handling the external waste pump (c4000 optional accessory), use proper personal protective equipment.
Dispose of sharps in an appropriately marked, puncture resistant and leakproof container before treatment and disposal.
Heavy Objects
The system is heavy and sections of the shell are unsupported. Ensure you have adequate help before attempting to move the system.
Push only on solid sections of the housing; do not exert pressure on unsupported sections of the shell.
The c System high-concentration waste container is heavy when full. The i System wash buffer reservoir is heavy and bulky when full. Use care when
handling the container to reduce the risk of injury.
When moving or lifting heavy objects, obtain assistance and always use proper lifting techniques.
Hot Objects
The buffer heaters, lamp and lamp housing may be hot. Allow the surface to cool before touching and handling. Use temperature resistant gloves, if
necessary.

Trip Hazard
The c4000 is equipped with a power cord and various computer connectors. To avoid a tripping hazard, ensure cords in high traffic areas are properly
stowed.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Many of the electronic components on the c4000 circuit boards are susceptible to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Static discharge of as little as 100–200 volts
can damage or destroy a component. Always wear a wrist ground strap and discharge static electricity from your body prior to touching and working on the
instrument.

Note All card cage boards are shipped with a ground strap and graphical instructions for use. This symbol is placed on the card cage to identify the
appropriate ground location.

Static Hazard
Static protective procedures are used during the manufacture of PC boards. Replacement PC board assemblies are also protected by use of static protective
packaging as well as boxed to prevent physical damage. Assemblies that have failed and are returned for repair are also handled at the repair shop under
static protection procedures.

Handling Guidelines PC Subassemblies


These guidelines assure protection against failures created by static:
• Retain spare PC board subassemblies in the static protective bags.
• Use an approved static protective field service kit, or the ground strap shipped with the board, whenever a board is removed from an instrument
or protective bag.
• Replace the defective PC board in the same protective bag to return for repair.
Continued use of the protective shipping boxes, both during shipping and storage, eliminates most failures caused by physical damage.

Static Protective Service Kit


The static protective service kit is designed to keep the FSE/FSR, replacement part, work surface and instrument at the same ground level. Generally, an
instruction set accompanies the kit. In the absence of specific instructions, follow ESD Procedure.

ESD Procedure

Note Use where ESD symbol is present and static protective equipment is not shipped with replacement part.

 
1. Place the work mat on a solid surface close to the instrument. Allow the ground strap to reach the instrument.
2. Attach the ground clip to the instrument chassis.
3. Attach the other end of the ground clip cable and the connector from the wrist strap to the work mat. (Exception: Some wrist strap cables provide a clip
to connect to the same ground source as the mat cable).
4. Attach wrist strap to your wrist; make sure the metallic button on the inside of the wrist strap is in direct contact with skin.
5. Place PC boards removed from the instrument on the work mat.
6. Replacement PC boards should be placed on the work mat before removing from the protective bag and remain on the mat until installation.
7. Defective PC boards should be placed in the static protective bag before removal from the work mat area.

c4000 Processing Module


Overview
The ARCHITECT c4000 is a high performance clinical chemistry diagnostic system capable of quantifying selected analytes in biological fluids.
The system consists of the c4000 Processing Module, the Robotic Sample Handler (RSH), and a separate System Control Center (SCC) for
initiating and monitoring operations.
 
The system can be configured with up to 220 different assays including Ion Selective Electrode (ISE) analysis of sodium, potassium, and chloride
with up to 90 different cartridges onboard. It can process samples at 400 tests/hour without ICTs and a maximum throughput of 600 tests/hour
when running both photometric and ICT tests (9 second system cycle). Individual assay time is a maximum of 10.5 minutes for photometric tests
and 4 minutes for ICT tests.
 
Operational modes include random, continuous access and priority processing. Endpoint and rate reactions are calculated using absorbance
measurements that are converted into concentration units. Absorbance measurements are made using a diode array detection system. The
Integrated Chip Technology (ICT) for electrolyte determinations consists of an integrated module using ion selective electrode technology.
 
Quality control (using Levy-Jennings and Westgard rules) and on-board data storage is located on the hard drive of the SCC.
 
The c4000 reaction carousel contains 99 permanent, rectangular cuvettes in a temperature controlled water bath maintained at 37°C for a stable
reaction process. The cuvettes are held in 9 cuvette holders (segments) designed for the c4000 system. Each of the 9 segments contain 11
cuvettes. The reaction carousel rotates clockwise 1 ¼ turn every nine seconds during processing and positions the cuvettes for sample and
reagent dispensing, mixing, photometry and cuvette washing. Each individual cuvette is read as it passes through the optical light path.
 
A water distribution system is used to wash the cuvettes, sample probe, reagent probes and mixer blades. The cuvette washer is used to
distribute diluted alkaline and acid solutions during the cuvette wash process. The mixer assembly utilizes 2 mixers to mix the sample and
reagent in preparation for final analysis.
 
The c4000 has 1 reagent supply center that contains both the R1 and R2 reagents. The inner and outer carousels are split into 15 segments and
have a total of 90 positions for 55/20 mL size wedge bottles, or 66 positions for 90 mL size wedge bottles.
 
The RSH is used to move the carriers to the proper position for sampling. The RSH has total 20 slots for loading/unloading sample and carriers,
and also has 3 pockets on the carrier positioner for continuous sampling.
 
Pressure monitoring circuitry is incorporated for clot and bubble detection on the sample pipettor. An alert is issued when a clot or bubble is
detected providing the operator the opportunity to rerun or check the quality of the sample. Pressure monitoring is also provided for the R1 and
R2 pipettors.

Assay Processing Sequence


 

Position(s) Description

1 The sample pipettor dispenses sample into the cuvette at the starting position.

2 The reaction carousel rotates approximately 1 and ¼ turns (124 cuvette positions). The cuvette
containing sample is now at the first reagent dispense position. Reagent pipettor 1 dispenses reagent
1 in the cuvette.

3 The reaction carousel rotates on cycle (1 and ¼ turns) to the first mixing position where the mixer unit
(mixer 1) mixes the sample and reagent 1.

Note Each time the reaction carousel rotates, the cuvette passes the photometric position
where the lamp is located and the photometer measures the absorbance.

4 The reaction carousel rotates one cycle to this position at which no activity takes place.

5 The reaction carousel has completed 4 cycles. Each cycle rotates the reaction carousel 124 cuvette
positions (approximately 1 and ¼ turns). Since there are 99 cuvettes in the reaction carousel, each
cycle indexes the carousel 25 cuvette positions (124-99=25). After 4 cycles the cuvette is now one
position beyond the original starting position (4x25=100).

6-68 The reaction carousel continues to rotate and the reaction mixture incubates. The photometer takes
absorbance readings every time the cuvette passes the photometric position. Although the cuvette
passes the photometric position 68 times, the c4000 processing module only uses up to 33
absorbance readings for calculation of results.

69-97 The cuvette washer removes the reaction mixture to waste and cleans the cuvette with Alkaline
Wash, Acid Wash, and DI water. Then the cuvette washer dispenses DI water into the cuvette for a
water blank measurement to ensure cuvette integrity. Finally, the cuvette washer aspirates the water
and dries the cuvette.

100 The clean cuvette waits for new sample dispense.

Some assay protocols may also use the following locations:


 

Position(s) Description

5 If onboard dilution is required, the sample pipettor aspirates the diluted sample and dispenses
the sample into the new cuvette that is currently at position 1.

22 For an ICT sample, the ICT probe aspirates the diluted sample into the ICT unit.

37 If the reaction requires a second reagent, reagent pipettor 2 dispenses reagent 2 into the
cuvette.

38 The mixer unit (mixer 2) mixes the second reagent with the sample and reagent mixture.

Photometric Technology
Photometry is defined as the measurement of light, which travels in waves. The color of light is a function of its wavelength, which is the distance
between the peaks of a light wave. As the wavelength of light is varied, a visible change in color is detected. Material that appears to have color
absorbs light at specific wavelengths and reflects others producing different shades of color. For example, a substance that absorbs blue light at
475 nm reflects all other wavelengths and is seen as yellow, which is the sum of all other reflected light.
In a laboratory setting an assay specific reagent solution is mixed with a patient sample causing a chemical reaction and color change to take
place over time. Photometric technology uses a light source and optics unit to measure the kind and the amount of light absorbed or transmitted
by the solution. This technology follows Beer's Law, which states the absorbance of a solution is directly related to its concentration. The
relationship between transmittance and absorbance as a function of concentration is explained as follows:
Transmittance is the amount of light that passes through a solution and is measured photometrically. The amount of light reaching the optics
is expressed as the percent transmittance. As the concentration of the color in the sample is increased, the percent transmittance is
decreased although the relationship is not linear. A more linear relationship is established by plotting the logarithm of the %T. Absorbance
measures the amount of light that is absorbed by a solution. Absorbance describes the percentage of light transmission and is directly
proportional to concentration.

 
Standards or calibrators with known concentration values are measured in a photometric system. The measured absorbance values are plotted
against the known concentrations of the calibrators and a calibration curve is drawn. The absorbance of the patient sample is measured and
compared to the calibration curve and the concentration value of the patient result is calculated.

End-Point Assay
End-point assays are reactions that reach equilibrium and at that time, there is little or no further change to the absorbance readings. During this
equilibrium time, the system measures the absorbance readings used for calibration and calculating results.
For end-point assays, the system calculates the concentration using the absorbance data obtained in the Main Read Time specified on the
Configure assay parameters window - General Reaction Definition view.

End-Point Assay Reaction Curve Example

Rate Assay
 
Rate assays are reactions that measure the constant change in absorbance over time. The system performs readings several times during this
reaction, calculates absorbance change (activity), and uses the readings to calculate results.For rate assays, the system calculates activity using
the change of absorbance per minute in the Main Read Time specified on the Configure assay parameters window - General Reaction Definition
View.

Optics System
Serum or urine sample is dispensed into a glass cuvette and mixed with reagent. In the constant reaction process, variable rate of absorbance or
final absorbance at the end of the reaction process is used for calculating the measurement result. A spectrophotometer is used to monitor the
absorbance at 16 defined wavelength(s). The 99 cuvettes in the reaction carousel rotate in a water bath that maintains constant temperature
(37°C) for a stable reaction process.
The optical system of the c4000 module is a reaction cuvette direct photometry system that serves to direct and align the light from the source
lamp, through the water bath and cuvette, and into the optics unit. The system focuses only light that originates at the source lamp. The analyzer
uses a concave diffraction grating and is capable of taking monochromatic and bi-chromatic measurements at 16 different wavelengths.
Monochromatic measurements compare the absorbance of a chromogen in a sample solution against a water or reagent blank. Bi-chromatic
analysis uses the absorbance difference of a chromogen between two pre-selected wavelengths.

C4000 Optics Assembly


 
Light from the tungsten halogen source lamp passes through the aperture, heat absorbing filter, convex focusing lens, water bath lenses and
cuvette. The heat absorbing filter protects the first convex lens.
The light passes into the optics assembly through another convex focusing lens and is reflected off of a mirror 90 degrees through a slit to a
diffraction grating. The slit controls the size of the light beam onto the grating assembly. The grating breaks up the focused light beam into the 16
component wavelengths (340nm to 804nm) and reflects the light spectrum to the diode array. The photo diode detects and measures changes in
light intensity.
The current signal from the photo diode array is changed to a voltage and is amplified by the pre-amp board. In the DAQ board circuitry, the
signal is inverted and selected from 16 channels by a multiplexer. The Trigger Sensor signals the DAQ board the cuvette is in the light path and
is in position for the readings to take place. A gain control circuit (on the DAQ board) changes the signal to an optimum level, converts the analog
signal to a digital value and passes the signal to the CPU board. Final result calculations are performed by the system control center.
 

DAQ

Beginning of a Sample Processing Run


 
• Photometric gains are set to compensate for lamp degradation:
- Light passes through cuvette #34and into the optics assembly where the Diffraction Grating separates the light into 16 different
wavelengths and focuses them onto 16 different photo-diodes. The current signals from the photo-diodes are changed to a voltage
equivalent and amplified by the pre-amp board in the optics assembly. The signal range from the output of the pre-amp is 0V
(dark) to -5V max
- The DAQ Board inverts the signal (0V to +5V) and multiplexes it to the DAQ gain control circuitry
- The DAQ gain control circuitry increases or decreases the signal level input to the DAQ ADC circuitry. For example, if the output of
the pre-amp is –1.5V, a gain of x2 is selected and the input level to the ADC becomes 3V
- The amplified signals are converted by the DAQ to a digital value of 35000 (2.5VDC) to 65000 (5.0VDC) with a maximum gain of
4.0.
• The optics shutter is closed, and a dark current read is taken. This value is used to offset noise in the detection circuitry and is used in
the absorbance calculation
• Cuvette #34, containing water, is used to perform a trigger check. During the trigger check, the system rotates the reaction carousel and
locates the cuvette segment tab for the cuvette. After the trigger sensor detects the trailing edge of the tab, the optics are used to
calculate the center of the cuvette by locating both edges of the cuvette. The difference from the target (expected) value is the offset.
The offset value is used to determine when the system begins the optical readings on the individual cuvettes as they pass by the optics
• The system performs a water blank/cuvette integrity check optical read on each cuvette. The digital readings from the DAQ are sent to
the SCC via the CPU and are used to check the individual cuvette integrity. If the check passes, the readings are used as the water
blank value in the absorbance calculation. If it fails the system skips the cuvette during the run and generates an error message.

During a Sample Processing Run


• Sample is dispensed into a cuvette, reagent is added and mixed
• Thirty-three reads are made at the sixteen wavelengths.

Note The c4000 module reads a total of 68 points of photometric data. However, the SCC utilizes 33 read points to keep equal
conditions throughout “C” series instruments.

• The digital readings from the DAQ are sent to the SCC via the CPU and depending on the assay reaction type and configuration, the
software extracts the proper wavelength readings for the selected read time
• The unknown sample value is used in the absorbance calculation. The measured absorbance values are plotted against the known
concentrations of the calibrators and a calibration curve is drawn. The absorbance of the patient sample is measured and compared to
the stored calibration curve and the concentration value of the patient result is calculated.
Abs = -10/5log ((sample voltage – dark voltage) / (water blank voltage – dark voltage))
 

Lamp Monitoring
This function monitors the lamp energy, to detect lamp output fluctuations. This minimizes generation of aberrant results caused by normal lamp
degradation.
• Lamp monitoring is performed during the cuvette water blank measurement
• Reads are a bi-chromatic calculation of the absorbance at 340nm and 380nm wavelengths
• Readings are analyzed against recent lamp data
• A range (Max-Min.) of the bichromatic reads are calculated and compared to the predefined threshold in the system software
parameters
• Bichromatic optics errors are generated when the reads are outside of specifications due to lamp instability and/or an issue with the
water bath

Ending of a Sample Processing Run


• The cuvette washer removes the reaction mixture to waste, and cleans the cuvette with Alkaline Wash, Acid Wash, and DI water
• The cuvette washer dispenses DI water into the cuvette for the water blank measurement
• The cuvette washer aspirates the water and dries the cuvette in preparation for the next sample
• If additional sample analysis is not requested, the sample probe dispenses water into the cuvette for hydration

Integrated Chip Technology (ICT)


The ICT module is an integrated subsystem for determining sodium, potassium and chloride in fluid samples. The ICT module contains a solid
state ion selective electrode for each analyte. Each electrode is based on the unique properties of ion specific membranes that develop an
electrical potential or voltage when exposed to a solution containing the analyte it is designed to measure. The voltage developed varies in
response to concentration changes – the higher the sample concentration, the larger the voltage output. The voltage on the ion selective
electrode is compared to a reference electrode that is an integral part of the ICT module.

ICT Module and Flow


 

Electrode Description

Sodium (Na+) A Crown Ether ionophore incorporated into an ion-selective plastic membrane.
(It is NOT a glass electrode, and therefore is less affected by pH changes)

Potassium (K+) Valinomycin incorporated into an ion-selective plastic membrane.

Chloride (Cl-) A solid silver chloride (AgCl) disk.

Reference A silver/silver chloride electrode in a potassium chloride (KCl) gel inner solution, separated
from the sample by a porous ceramic tube.

The c4000 module uses an on-board bulk solution known as ICT reference solution. Reference solution is used in the ICT fluidic system in
determination of electrolyte values. The solution serves to stabilize the temperature of the ICT electrodes, provides known concentration or
standard for calculating the concentration of the sample and to rinse out the sample at the measurement process. Proper fluidic operation is
critical for accurate and precise results. A capacitive sensor located in the reference solution cup monitors fluidic operation. If the cup does not fill
or if the reference solution is not aspirated an error is generated.
 

ICT Reference Solution Cup Level Sense Description

The ICT Reference Solution Cup contains level sense electrodes used to sense the presence of ICT Reference Solution. When the cup is full, the
solution covers both electrodes and provides a conductive pathway between the electrodes. After the ICT Module completes aspiration, the fluid
level drops below the electrodes and there will be no conductive pathway between the electrodes.
The analyzer confirms the ICT Reference Solution is dispensed and aspirated correctly by detecting the solution level in the ICT Reference
Solution Cup before and after aspiration.

 
If solution is not detected prior to aspiration, the systems generate error code 5622 Unable to process test, ICT reference solution cup not filling.
If solution is detected after aspiration, the system generates error code 5623 Unable to process test, ICT reference solution not aspirated.
When the ICT Reference Solution is not properly detected, the analyzer stops measuring the ICT assay, flags associated results and generates
an error code that is added to the message history log. The analyzer stops measuring ICT Assays, but the cup is not drained. The level of
solution left in the cup after an error is the same level of solution that generated the error. The level detect electronic signal pathway is as follows:
1. ICT Reference Solution Cup Sensors.
2. IREF Level Detect Board.
3. CNN.
4. CPU.

IREF Level Detect Board LED Operation


The IREF Level Detect Board is mounted on the side of the ICT Pre-amp board (located at the front, upper right of the c4000 module). There are
two Light Emitting Diodes (LED) located on the board.LED 2 turns on only when the c4000 module CPU is reading the status of the level sense
electrodes in the ICT Reference Cup. During this brief status check (when LED 2 is on) observe LED 1. If the cup is full during the status check,
LED 1 will be on at the same time as LED 2. If the cup is empty, LED 1 will be off when LED 2 is on. Just before the ICT assembly moves down
to aspirate, both LED2 and LED1 turn RED momentarily (cup is full), and turn off. After the ICT assembly aspirates and moves up, LED2 turns
RED momentarily and turns off. LED1 never turns on because the IREF Cup is empty.

Serum Sample Progression


If concentrated ICT Diluent is used, the R1 pipettor aspirates 69uL of ICT Diluent and dispenses it into the cuvette along with 276uL of water. The
ICT Reference Solution read in step four is used to condition the ICT and is not used in result calculations.
1. 15ul of sample is aspirated and dispensed into a cuvette by the Sample Pipettor.
2. The R1 Pipettor aspirates 345uL of ICT Diluent and dispenses it into the cuvette containing the sample.
3. The ICT Diluent and sample solution are mixed utilizing the R1 Mixer.

Fluidics
Fluidics Overview
The Water Management Unit (WMU) provides incoming water distribution for the c4000 module. The WMU is located on the left rear side of the
instrument. The unit consists of a number of valves, pumps and tubing that direct clean reagent grade water used for the water bath, probe wash,
mixer washing and cuvette washing.
On-board the WMU is a 3-liter internal water supply tank which fills automatically to maintain water availability and enables water to be distributed
throughout the c4000 module when needed. Float switches in the WMU tell the c4000 module if there is adequate water available and if the low
concentration waste drain system is working properly.
A magnetic pump (MP), located in the WMU, pumps water to the sample probe, reagent probes and mixer wash cups for external probe washing.
A water degasser is incorporated in the system to reduce bubbles in the DI water for the Probe Wash Pump, Cuvette Wash Pump, Wash Solution
Pump, and Water Bath Fill Pump.
• The bellows style Probe Wash Pump provides degassed water for dispensing and internal probe washing by directing the degassed
water through the inside of the sample and reagent probes.
• The bellows style Cuvette Wash Pump provides degassed water for washing the cuvettes by directing the degassed water through a
manifold and to the various cuvette wash nozzles located on the cuvette washer head.
• The syringe style Wash Solution Pump uses degassed water to create and deliver a 1.3% alkaline and 0.9% acid solution to the wash
nozzles for cuvette washing.
• The peristaltic style Water Bath Fill Pump provides degassed water for the reaction water bath.
There are two syringe style pumps used in the ICT subsystem:
• The syringe style ICT Aspiration Pump is used to aspirate sample and reference solution into the ICT module for analysis.
• The syringe style ICT Reference Solution Pump is used to fill and drain the ICT Reference Cup with ICT Reference Solution.
The cuvette washer generates high concentration waste (HCW) and low concentration waste (LCW) during the process of cleaning the cuvettes.
The peristaltic style HCW Pump removes the high concentration waste from the cuvettes and sends it to the HCW waste drain.
• Two diaphragm style vacuum pumps, VP1 and VP2, remove the low concentration waste from the cuvettes and send it to the LCW
Tank where it is gravity fed to an external drain hose.
The following schematic provides greater detail for the overall fluidics operation of the instrument:

Water Bath Fill


Water from the Degasser Unit is pumped through the Heater Assembly, water filter, manifold and into the water bath by the peristaltic Water Bath
Fill Pump. A float switch located in the water bath tells the c4000 module when the water bath is full.

Water Bath Heater


Once the water bath is full of water, the Water Bath Fill Pump turns off and the Water Bath Heater Assembly turns on. The Water Bath Heater
Assembly contains a magnetic pump (MP), heater and radiator. When the unit is on, it maintains a constant water temperature of 37°C ± 0.2°C
by re-circulating the water from the bath through a manifold, into the radiator, heater, and back to the water bath in a closed loop.
The manifold is also used to provide re-circulated heated water to the ICT Warming Jacket to keep the ICT module warm.

Sample & Reagent Lines - Internal Probe Wash


 

Probe Wash Pump


To wash the inside of the sample and reagent probes, the WMU supplies water through a manifold to the Degasser Unit that removes air
bubbles from the DI water. On the down stroke of the internal probe wash pump, water flows from the degasser through a check valve and into
the bellows style pump. On the upstroke, water is forced out the top of the pump through a check valve and into a valve unit that splits the water
flow to the COM ports of the sample valve, reagent 1 valve and reagent 2 valve.
When it is necessary to wash the probes internally, the sample and reagent valves allow water to pass through the NC ports to the sample and
reagent syringes and out to the probes. As the pump cycles, water is flushed through the probes and into the probe wash cups.
Upon completion of a wash cycle, the valves close the NC port (creating a slight pressure in the tubing between the Probe Wash Pump and the
valves) and open the NO port. The line pressure forces water to the Water Bath Overflow Area.

Cuvette Washer Fluidics Overview


An eight step cuvette washing process is used to clean the cuvettes on the c4000 module. The cuvette washer aspirates sample and reagent
from previous reactions to a high concentrate waste container or drain. It washes the cuvettes with alkaline and acid wash solutions and provides
two water rinses. After the water rinses, it dispenses water for a water blank reading and dries the cuvette prior to the next sample.

1 High Concentration Waste (HCW) Pump- evacuates HCW from the


cuvette.
2 Wash Manifold- provides wash solutions to the nozzles.

3 LCW Manifold- used to evacuate wash waste (LCW) to Vacuum Pump 2.


4 Washer Nozzles- eight nozzles used to aspirate waste, wash and dry
cuvettes

Cuvette Washer Nozzles


 

Cuvette Washer Nozzles Description

Nozzle 1 Aspirates the high concentration waste through a high concentration waste peristaltic
pump. The nozzle also dispenses DIwater into the cuvette from the cuvette wash
bellows pump during the aspiration. Water is dispensed through small holes in the
welded area in the mid-section of the nozzle.

Nozzle 2 Delivers a 1.3% mixture of alkaline solution and DI water that is created and provided by
the Wash Solution Pump using a micro syringe block and 1 mL syringes. After the
alkaline solution is dispensed into the cuvette, it is aspirated through a vacuum pump.

Nozzle 3 Delivers a 0.9% mixture of acid solution and DI water that is also created by the Wash
Solution Pump. The alkaline and acid solutions are located on the weighted platform
scales in the front of the analyzer.

Nozzles 4/5 Dispense DI water into the cuvettes and aspirate the water through a vacuum pump.

Nozzle 6 Has two nozzles, one providing DI water that fills the cuvette to a certain level and the
other to aspirate part of the water out of the cuvette. The amount of water left in the
cuvette is used by the system for a water blank which is measured as the cuvette
passes through the optics unit. The transmission or intensity of the light measured in the
water blank is used as the reference value for the subsequent measurement of the
sample in this cuvette. It is also used as a cuvette integrity check.
Nozzle 7 Performs an aspiration of the water blank.

Nozzle 8 Has a porous cuvette drying tip installed on the nozzle that removes water from the
cuvette prior to introduction of the next sample. The nozzle is spring loaded which
allows the nozzle to move up when the drying tip is driven into the physical bottom of
the cuvette. This ensures the cuvette drying tip is touching the bottom of the cuvette.
Water in the bottom or on the side walls of the cuvette is aspirated by a vacuum pump
through small holes on the side and bottom of the nozzle shaft.
 

Cuvette Washing - Water Wash

Cuvette Wash Pump


The bellows style Cuvette Wash Pump supplies degassed water to the High Concentration Waste Nozzle, Water Wash Nozzle 1, Water Wash
Nozzle 2, and the Water Blank Nozzle. Degassed DI water is used to prevent water from dropping out of the nozzle tip due to bubbles in the
tubing.
During the cuvette wash process, water from the Degasser Unit is directed through a check valve and into the bellows on the down stroke of the
pump. On the up stroke of the pump, the cuvette wash valve opens the NC port allowing water to flow through a check valve and to a manifold
that distributes water to the nozzles for cuvette rinsing. During normal running, cuvette washing is a continuous process.
Upon completion of a wash cycle, the cuvette wash valve closes the NC port creating a slight pressure in the tubing between the Cuvette Wash
Pump and the valve. The NO port opens and relieves any pressure or air in the line to the WMU open tank.

Cuvette Washing - Alkaline and Acid Wash Solutions


 

Wash Solution Pump


As part of the cuvette wash process, alkaline and acid solutions are introduced into the cuvette aspirated. The Wash Solution Pump dilutes the
alkaline solution to 1.3% and the acid solution to 0.9% and distributes the solutions to the nozzles for the cuvette washing.
On the down stroke of the pump, degassed water from the Degasser Unit is supplied to the two 1mL syringes located on the front of the pump
through check valves mounted at the top of each syringe. At the same time, the ALK1 and ACD1 valves turn on (NC is open, NO is closed)
allowing aspiration of straight alkaline and acid solution from the bulk solution bottles into the micro syringes that are also mounted on the pump.
The 1mL syringes filled with water and small, measured amounts of alkaline and acid solutions in the tubing lines create the proper dilutions to be
delivered to the cuvette washer nozzles.
On the up stroke of the pump, valves ALK1 and ACD 1 turn off (NC is closed, NO is open) and valves ACD2 and ALK2 turn on (NC is open, NO
is closed), allowing the solutions to be pumped into the nozzles 2 and 3 of the cuvette washer.
At the completion of the cycle, valves ALK2 and ACD2 turn off (NO open, NC closed), allowing any remaining solution or air to be directed to the
low concentration waste tank through the valves normally open port.

Cuvette Washing - Water & Wash Solution Aspiration and Drying

Vacuum Pumps
After the cuvettes have had alkaline, acid or water introduced during the wash process, they must be emptied and dried prior to the next sample
dispense. To achieve this, a duel-headed vacuum pump is used to remove the contents of the cuvettes and provide a final drying before the
cuvettes are used again. The vacuum pump has two heads that are identified as VP1 [1] and VP2 [2].
 

1 VP1

2 VP2

VP1 is attached directly to the cuvette dryer tip and provides final drying of the cuvette before it is used again. Aspirated water is directed through
the vacuum pump to the LCW tank in the WMU.
VP2 [2] aspirates water rinse, alkaline wash solution and acid wash solution from the cuvettes into the nozzles through a manifold and directs it to
the LCW tank in the WMU.

Low Concentration Waste and Drain Lines

 
Low concentration waste from the reagent supply center, wash cups, and the water bath overflow area is directed to the LCW tank through a
drain pipe type waste manifold. (The water bath overflow area collects waste from the ICT reference solution cup, the sample and reagent valves,
and the water bath overflow.)
Low concentration waste from the cuvette washer and the air bleed lines from the wash solution pump is also directed to the low concentration
waste tank.
Waste from the tank is directed out of the back of the c4000 module. A float switch is located inside the LCW tank to alert the operator of an
overflow situation. The tank also has a separate overflow port to an external fitting should it overflow.

High Concentration Waste


 

HCW From Cuvette


Upon completion of a sample run, the patient sample and reagent are first aspirated from the cuvette through nozzle #1 (HCW Nozzle) on the
cuvette washer.
Cuvette washer nozzle #1 (HCW nozzle) is connected directly to the peristaltic style HCW pump. When the pump rotates, patient sample and
reagent are aspirated from the cuvette into the nozzle and sent to the external high concentration waste container or drain.

HCW From ICT HCW Cup


ICT waste is drawn from the ICT HCW Cup through a check valve and into the #14 syringe on the ICT aspiration pump during the down stroke of
the pump. On the subsequent up stroke of the pump, the waste is pushed through the other side of the check valve to the external high
concentration waste container or drain.

ICT Aspiration Pump Fluidics


 
Located on the right side of the ICT Aspiration Pump, is the number 11 syringe, or Aspiration Syringe. It is used to aspirate sample or ICT
Reference Solution into the ICT Module for measurement.
• On the down stroke of the ICT Aspiration Pump, the aspiration syringe draws down and aspirates fluid into the ICT Probe, through the
ICT Module, into the normally closed (NC) port of the Pinch Valve, out of the common port (COM) and into the aspiration syringe.
• On the upstroke of the pump, fluid is pushed up through the common port of the Pinch Valve, out of the normally open (NO) port, and
into the ICT High Concentration Waste (HCW) Cup.
Located on the left side of the ICT Aspiration Pump, is the number 14 syringe. It is used to pump waste from the ICT HCW Cup to an External
HCW Container or drain.
• As the ICT Aspiration Pump moves down, the number 14 syringe draws the high concentration waste from the ICT HCW Cup down
through a check valve and into the syringe.
• On the upstroke of the pump, the waste is pushed out through a check valve and to the External HCW Container or drain.

ICT Reference Solution Pump Fluidics

 
Located on the right side of the ICT Reference Solution Pump, is the number 12 syringe. It is used to aspirate and dispense ICT Reference
Solution into the ICT Reference Solution Cup.
• On the down stroke of the ICT Reference Solution Pump, ICT Reference Solution is aspirated from the bulk solution bottle, through a
check valve and into the syringe.
• On the upstroke of the pump, the ICT Reference Solution is pushed up through a check valve, through the Warming Ring and into the
upper port of the ICT Reference Solution Cup.
On the left side of the ICT Reference Solution Pump, is the number 13 syringe. It is used to pump fluid from the ICT Reference Cup to the Water
Bath Waste Overflow area.
• On the down stroke of the ICT Reference Solution Pump, the number 13 syringe aspirates the ICT Reference Solution from the bottom
port of the ICT Reference Solution Cup down through a check valve and into the syringe.
• On the upstroke, it pushes the solution through the check valve and into the Water Bath Waste Overflow area.

Motor Assembly Position Sensors


Optical sensors and flags are used to determine the home, rotational, or vertical position of a motor driven device. A flag attached to the device
interrupts the sensor signal by passing between the send and receive portions of the sensor. The interrupt signal indicates the presence of the
flag within a specific position range of movement for that device. The sensor signal is reported to the CNN Board and monitored by a control
circuit board contained in the card cage.
Up, Down and Down OK optical sensors are used on AC motor driven devices. For most stepper motor driven devices, the sensors are labeled
Home and Pitch. A flag interrupts both the Home and Pitch sensors when the DC motor assembly is in the home position.
 

HOME SENSOR:
Assembly starting or reference point.
Flag must be in sensor at the same time Pitch
Flag begins to enter the sensor.
PITCH SENSOR:
Tracks motor location.
Flag must begin to enter the sensor at the same
time Home Flag is in the sensor.

 
The Sensor LED board, located in the card cage, contains light emitting diodes that indicate the status of the sensor signals from all DC motor
and AC motor driven pump and robotic devices.

Robotics Calibration

 
The Stepper Motor Controller contains a factory set step table located in firmware. This table defines the default positioning step numbers for all
robotic horizontal and vertical positions and is not user configured. These step values are generic and not instrument specific.
The robotic calibration Mdse. train the robotic positioning by offsetting the SMC firmware generic step positions. This provides exact device
positioning that is instrument specific. The offset position numbers are written into SRAM on the DAQ Board and backed up in flash memory on
the CPU Board each time the user completes a robotic calibration M&D. There is no automated calibration of the sample pipettor at positions 1,2
and 3 in the sample solutions wash area. These positions are manually set utilizing M&D 1101 Robotic Test Tool (alignment data is saved to the
DAQ and CPU when the user exits the M&D).
The following is an example of the offset position step table that is shipped with a new c4000 system. M&D 6001 Save/Restore DAQ Data
provides options to view, modify and print this information.

Robotic Assembly Description

Reagent Supply Center


 
The c4000 Reagent Supply Center contains two reagent carousels for the R1 and R2 reagents. The carousels are split into 15 segments and
have a total of 90 positions for 55/20 mL size wedges, or 66 positions for 90 mL size wedges.
 

1 Inner carousel

2 Outer carousel

3 Fan

 
The Reagent Supply Center provides 2-10 degrees C refrigerated storage for assay reagent packs utilizing four +12VDC thermoelectric devices
(TEDs) located under the reagent carousel.
 
 

1 Fan

2 TED

3 TED

 
A temperature sensor is used to detect the internal air temperature and is mounted into the bottom area of reagent carousel. A thermostat
(ON/OFF control) is used to adjust the refrigerated temperature and a fan is used to exhaust the hot air from the TEDs.
A 2D bar code reader is used to scan and identify the reagent type and position of each reagent cartridge loaded in the inner and/or outer
carousel.
The inner carousel and outer carousel drive units provide rotation for the reagent carousels. Each drive unit consists of a +24VDC five-phase
stepper motor, gear and sensor assembly.

1 Inner Carousel Motor

2 Outer Carousel Motor


 

3 TED

Reaction Carousel
 
The c4000 reaction carousel contains 99 permanent, rectangular glass cuvettes in a temperature controlled water bath maintained at 37° C for a
stable reaction process. The cuvettes are held in 9 cuvette holders (segments) attached to the reaction carousel ring. Each of the 9 segments
contain 11 cuvettes. If necessary, all segments and individual cuvettes can be removed by the operator for cleaning or replacement.
The reaction carousel rotates clockwise 1 ¼ turn every nine seconds during processing and positions the cuvettes for sample and reagent
dispensing, mixing, photometry and cuvette washing. Each individual cuvette is read as it passes through the optical light path.
The reaction carousel is gear driven by a +24VDC five-phase stepper motor and sensor assembly. Adjustable and fixed guide rollers provide
proper tension and positioning of the carousel.
 

1 Adjustable and Fixed Guide Rollers


2 Motor Gear Cover

3 Motor Gear

 
A water bath float sensor tells the c4000 module when the water bath is full. A cuvette wiper cleans the side of the cuvettes prior to them passing
through the optical light path. The cuvette wipers are located at the rear of the water bath.
The water bath has water input/output ports located on the underside. These ports provide water input, heated water exchange with the heater
assembly and ICT module holder, and a drain.
 

1 VP 2

2 VP 1

 
The cuvette washer uses a 100VAC dual-headed vacuum pump to aspirate wash waste fluids and dry the cuvettes. Each pump head has a
diaphragm mounted on a shaft to move liquid in and out of the pump. As the pump motor rotates, each diaphragm moves up and down, creating
a vacuum in the fluidic lines, to aspirate fluid from the cuvettes. Each head has dual 0-rings and valves.
Vacuum Pump 2 (VP-2) drains the low concentration waste liquid from the alkaline, acid, and DI water washes of the cuvettes (nozzles 2 - 7 of
the cuvette washer). Vacuum Pump 1 (VP-1) provides vacuum for final drying of the cuvette, using nozzles 8. After drying, less than 2.0 ul
residual water remains in the cuvette.

Peristaltic Pumps
 

1 Head

2 Photo Sensor

3 Encoder

4 Motor
5 Pump Head Tubing

 
There are two peristaltic pumps on the c4000: High Concentration Waste (HCW) and Water Bath Fill. Each pump is driven by a +24VDC 2-phase
stepper motor and utilizes a photo sensor and encoder. The Water Bath Fill peristaltic pump supplies degassed water to the water bath. A check
valve is installed between the pump and the reaction water bath to avoid leakage. The High Concentration Waste peristaltic pump removes high
concentration waste from nozzle 1 on the cuvette washer. The pump is located near the wash station to prevent clogging by mixture of different
reagents. The HCW and Water Bath Fill peristaltic pumps and pump heads are different; the components are not interchangeable.
 

Cuvette Washer Assembly

 
The upper section of the cuvette washer has eight nozzles, mounted on a platform, that are use in an eight-step cuvette washing process. The
cuvette washer aspirates sample and reagent from previous reactions to a high concentrate waste container or drain. It washes the cuvettes with
alkaline and acid wash solutions and provides two water rinses. After the water rinses, it dispenses water for a water blank reading, aspirates the
water and dries the cuvette prior to the next sample.
The lower mechanical section raises and lowers the nozzles into the cuvettes as the reaction carousel rotates. The lower mechanical section
consists of a linear slide and 100VAC motor with three optical sensors to tell the c4000 module when the nozzles are in the correct up or down
position.

Mixer Assembly
 
The mixer assembly consists of two main sections. A lower mechanical section, consisting of a 100VAC motor and linear slide, provides vertical
drive to raise and lower the upper assembly. Three optical sensors in the lower section tell the c4000 module when the assembly is in the correct
up or down position. The upper section consists of the mixers and two +24VDC stepper motors used to rotate the mixers horizontally over the
reaction carousel. Optical sensors in the upper section provide feedback when the mixers are in the home position.
The mixers are designed using piezoelectric effect. Piezoelectric effect is the characteristic of certain crystals to produce electricity when under
strain or to produce vibration when a voltage at a specific frequency is applied. The mixers consist of a crystal attached to a thin mixer blade
contained in a plastic enclosure. A voltage is applied to the mixers at two different frequencies depending on the desired mixer movement over
the reaction carousel or wash cup. When in the cuvette or washing, a faster movement/shorter travel is required and the mixers are driven at
120Hz. When washing is complete, the mixers are driven at a lower frequency of 70Hz producing a slower movement/wider travel to remove
water from the mixer blades.
The Mixer Driver board drives the stirrers. The AC/DC and SM AC/DC controller and AC/DC Driver board provides control and drive to the
vertical elevator. The SMC controller and SMD board control and drive rotation to the stirrers. The CNN board serves as the distribution board for
monitoring various home sensor statuses.

ICT Assembly
 
The ICT assembly consists of a lower mechanical drive section and an upper section containing the ICT module. The lower mechanical section
has two +24VDC stepper motors used to move the module in the horizontal and vertical directions along with optical sensors to tell the c4000
module when the unit is in the up/down or rotational home position. The upper section of the assembly contains the ICT module, holder and
cover. The module holder has two ports that allow 37°C water to recirculate in a closed loop, indirectly stabilizing the temperature of the ICT
module.

Sample and Reagent Syringe Drives

 
The syringe drives provide aspiration and dispense of sample and reagent. Each drive has a +24VDC two phase stepper motor. The motor
rotates a ball screw mechanism to raise and lower the plunger located inside the attached syringe. Optical pitch and home (up) sensors are used
to tell the c4000 module when the drive is in the home position. The sensors are also used to detect a single rotation of the motor. The amount of
up and down travel the plunger moves determines the volume of sample or reagent dispensed or aspirated.

Sample and Reagent Pipettors


 
The sample and reagent pipettors are used to aspirate and dispense sample, reagent and solutions. Tubing from the probe and wires from the
pre-amp board run down the center shaft of the pipettor, and into a coiled spring enclosure (to avoid damage during movement).
The pipettors are belt driven in the horizontal and vertical direction by +24VDC stepper motors. The sample pipettor uses five phase motors and
the reagent pipettors use two phase stepper motors. The motor and belt assembly uses optical home and pitch sensors to tell the c4000 module
when the pipettor is in the home position. Pipettor positions for the reaction carousel, wash cups and reagent supply centers are software trained
from the home position and rotation is limited by mechanical stops. All pipettors incorporate a crash or guard sensor to tell the c4000 module
when an obstacle has been detected during downward travel.

Bellows Pump
 
There are two bellows style pumps used in the c4000 module. The two pumps are the internal probe wash and cuvette wash pump. The two
pumps function in a similar manner but are not interchangeable.
A 100VAC motor drives each pump and moves a bellows assembly up and down to provide aspiration and dispense of fluid. On the down stroke
of the pump, fluid is drawn in on the side port and on the up stroke of the pump, fluid is directed out of the top port. This is accomplished by the
use of directional poppet valves that permit fluid flow in only one direction. Optical sensors mounted inside the pump tell the c4000 module when
the pump is in the up or down position.

Wash Solution Pump

 
The wash solution pump uses an AC motor, gear head assembly, cam and lifter to move the two 1mL syringes and the two micro syringes. The
syringes create the 1.3% alkaline and 0.9% acid solutions used by the cuvette washer. The plunger of each syringe is attached to the lifter
assembly that is driven by the cam located inside the lifter. As the cam rotates, the lifter and syringes are moved up and down to provide the
proper dilutions. The micro syringes are contained in a syringe block and use the same tip seals and o-rings as the sample syringe. Optical
sensors mounted inside the pump tell the c4000 module when the pump is in the up or down position.
ICT Reference Solution (Iref) Pump

 
The ICT Reference Solution Pump uses an AC motor, gear head assembly, cam and lifter to move the two attached 1mL syringes. These
syringes are used to transport Iref solution to the ICT Reference Cup and remove the sample and Iref solution to waste. The plunger of each
syringe is attached to the lifter assembly that is driven by the cam located inside a cut out slot in the middle of the lifter. As the cam rotates, the
lifter and syringes are moved up and down. The Iref pump only has one sensor to detect full rotation of the motor.

ICT Aspiration Pump

 
The ICT aspiration pump uses an AC motor, gear head assembly, cam and lifter to move the two 1mL syringes. The syringes are used to
aspirate sample or ICT Reference Solution into the ICT Module for measurement and to pump ICT high concentration to an external container or
drain.
The plunger of each syringe is attached to the lifter assembly that is driven by the cam located inside a cut out slot in the middle of the lifter. As
the cam rotates, the lifter and syringes are moved up and down. The aspiration pump has a pinch valve attached to the frame of the pump. It
also has two optical sensors to tell the c4000 module when the pump is in the up or down position.

Liquid Level Sense (LLS)


The liquid level sense system is capacitance based where the sample or reagent acts as a capacitor in series with the sample or reagent probe.
A 32 KHz sine wave signal is applied to the probe and is also used as a reference signal input to a multiplier chip located on the LLS PCB. The
32 KHz sine wave signal from the probe is multiplied with the 32 KHz sine wave from the sine wave generator (reference signal). If the probe
does not encounter liquid, there will not be a significant phase shift on the 32 KHz sine wave signal from the probe. When two sine waves that
are in phase are multiplied, the output voltage is approximately zero, signifying that liquid has not been detected.
 
If the probe encounters liquid, there will be a phase shift in the 32 KHz sine wave signal from the probe because the liquid and base plate of the
instrument has some capacitance which causes a phase shift in the signal. When two sine waves that are out of phase are multiplied, an output
voltage is generated signifying that liquid has been detected.

LLS Board
The LLS board is used to detect contact with liquid surface by the sample probe, R1 probe and R2 probe. The LLS board is located above the
Card Cage. The thresholds for liquid detection are adjustable with potentiometers located on the LLS board. The CNN PCB generates the +5V
and ±15V (isolated) used by the LLS PCB. This provides separation from the DAQ ±15V. This ensures that the oscillation noise from the level
sense board does not influence the DAQ board. The threshold voltages for the Sample Pipettor and Reagent Pipettor are adjustable on the LLS
PCB located above the Card Cage.

Sample Pipettor LLS Errors


The Sample Pipettor LLS circuitry is monitored as the Sample Pipettor steps down into the tube/cup. During this travel and when in fluid, the LLS
signal is monitored for any change. If liquid is detected, the Sample Pipettor will step down an additional 3mm prior to aspiration.
• “Liquid Not Found” error is generated when the Sample Pipettor travels to the lower step limit without detecting liquid.
• “Liquid Contact Broken For Sample Pipettor” error is generated when (after liquid detection and aspiration into the probe) the LLS
circuitry detects a change of phase, due to the loss of liquid (prior to dispense).
• “Sample Pipettor Error While Moving Down” error is generated when the Crash Sensor is activated as the Sample Pipettor steps down
to detect liquid.
• “Liquid Too High For Sample Pipettor” error is generated when the LLS circuitry detects fluid at a step position that is higher than the
top of the cup.
• “Liquid Too Low For Sample Pipettor” error is generated when air is detected during sample aspiration.

Reagent Pipettor LLS Errors


The reagent pipettor LLS circuitry is monitored as the Reagent Pipettor steps down into a cartridge. During this travel and when in fluid, the LLS
signal is monitored for any change. If liquid is detected, the Reagent Pipettor will step down an additional 5mm prior to aspiration.
• “Liquid Not Found” error is generated when the Reagent Pipettor travels to the lower step limit without detecting liquid
• ”Liquid Contact Broken For Reagent Pipettor” error is generated when (after liquid detection and aspiration into the probe) the LLS
circuitry detects a change of phase, due to the loss of liquid (prior to dispense)
• “Reagent Pipettor Error While Moving Down” error is generated when the Crash Sensor is activated as the Reagent Pipettor steps down
to detect liquid
• “Liquid Too High For Reagent Pipettor” error is generated when the LLS circuitry detects fluid at a step position that is higher than the
top of the cartridge
• Liquid Too Low For Reagent Pipettor” error is generated when air is detected during sample aspiration

c4000 Pressure Monitoring Hardware Description


A piezoresistive pressure transducer (Pressure Sensor) is situated in series with the sample and reagent probe tubing. The sensor is located on
the Preamp Sensor PCB Assembly that contains a power supply and amplifier circuitry. The transducer generates an analog voltage that is
proportional to the pressure change monitored.

 
Analog electrical signals flow from the sensor to the PM Board located in the Card Cage. Analog signals are converted into 16 bit digital signals
by an A/D converter located on the PM Board. (Digital electrical signals also flow from the LLS Board to the PM Board.)
A digital signal processor (DSP) contains firmware that determines if the pressure signal from the transducer is within the specifications for the
task (aspiration, dispense or probe rinse) being performed. The PM Board sends and receives data from the c4000 CPU via the Compact PCI
bus.

c4000 Pressure Monitoring Functional Description


The c4000 Pressure Monitoring (PM) subsystem is operational during the aspiration, dispense and wash aspirations of the c4000 sample and
reagent pipettor arm operations.
The PM subsystem is designed to detect abnormalities such as clots (probe obstructions) and air bubbles within the patient sample, and air
bubbles and large amounts of foam in reagent bottles during aspiration and dispense operations. It also monitors the wash pressure during the
internal probe wash to determine if the wash pressure is below or above pressure thresholds referenced in the PM Board firmware.

PM During Aspiration
During sample and reagent aspiration, the pressure monitoring and liquid level sense circuitry is active as the probe descends toward liquid. If
liquid is not sensed correctly, an LLS error–such as liquid not found, or liquid too high–is generated and pressure monitoring ceases for the
aspiration event.

Note An LLS error generates an accompanying PM error because the LLS error halts processing for the aspiration event, and results in
an abnormal pressure waveform for the aspiration.

If liquid is detected correctly, the pressure monitoring continues and the resultant PM waveform is analyzed for abnormalities. If a PM error is
detected, the PM Board sends an error message to the c4000 CPU and SCC and aborts the processing of that sample. If a PM error is not
generated, the c4000 continues to process the sample.

PM During Dispense
The PM subsystem is also active during the sample and reagent dispensing operations. If a PM error is detected during sample or reagent
dispensing, the PM Board sends an error message to the c4000 CPU and SCC and aborts the processing of that sample.

PM During Internal Probe Wash


The PM subsystem monitors the pressure during reagent and sample internal probe wash operations to determine if excessively high or
abnormally low pressures exist. Some of the abnormalities detected include clogged probes that create excessively high pressure, or major leaks
in the tubing or failed wash pumps that can create low-pressure conditions.
The c4000 performs wash operations before each run initiates. If a failure occurs during the wash sequence prior to the initiation of a run, the
system stops, and the run terminates and generates a wash error.
If a sample probe or reagent probe wash error occurs during a run, and cannot be resolved after 5 consecutive washes, the run terminates.

Key Diagrams, M&Ds and Alignment/Adjustment Procedures


 

Diagram/M&D/Procedure Description

M&D 3805 Pressure Monitor Test This procedure will test the pressure monitor board and pressure
monitor transducer for communications and consistency.

1127 Crash Sensor Alignment This procedure allows the user to align the crash sensor for either the
sample probe, the R1 probe, or the R2 probe.

P-617 LLS Voltage Adjustment Perform this procedure to adjust LLS threshold voltages on the LLS
board.

Temperature Control System


The c4000 analyzer utilizes temperature sensors to monitor:
• Internal ambient temperature
• Water Bath temperature
• Reagent Supply Center temperature
Temperature readings from the Water Bath, Reagent Supply Center and Ambient sensor are monitored in real time and stored on the c4000
module until a request command is received from the SCC. Temperature data is used to calculate a moving average that is compared against
defined normal ranges; an error is generated if specifications are exceeded.

AC/DC Controller
The AC/DC Controller PCB, located in the card cage, monitors voltage from temperature sensors, converts the voltage to a digital equivalent
(A/D) and sends the digital data to the c4000 analyzer CPU. Temperature data is used to initiate heating or cooling and to generate errors if any
of the three temperatures exceed specification. The SCC uses data to display temperatures in a readable format.
The AC/DC Controller Board contains potentiometers on the top, front edge to adjust displayed temperatures on the SCC monitor. The
potentiometer can be used to adjust the displayed temperature to match temperature output of a calibrated thermometer when needed. However,
adjustment of the potentiometer does not affect the actual system temperature, it only changes the displayed temperature.

Reagent Supply Center


 
• The Reagent Supply Center provides 2-10°C refrigerated storage for assay reagent packs
• The Reagent Supply Center is cooled utilizing four 12VDC thermoelectric devices (TEDs) located under the reagent carousel
• A temperature sensor detects internal air temperature. It is mounted into the bottom area of reagent carousel
• A thermostat (ON/OFF control) is used to adjust the refrigerated temperature
• A fan exhausts hot air from TEDs

Water Bath Heater Assembly


The function of the Water Bath Heater Assembly is to circulate and heat degassed DI water in the Water Bath to 37°C +/- 0.2°C. Major
components include:
• Radiator and fan
• Heater
• Water Bath Circulation Pump
• Temperature Bath Controller PCB (TBC)
• Ambient Temperature Sensor (thermistor)
• Water Bath Temperature Sensor (thermistor)
Water Bath Circulation Pump
Water circulation is provided by the Water Bath Circulation Pump (magnetic pump) and is constant as long as the water bath is full. If the Water
Bath is NOT full, the Water Bath Circulation Pump and Heater shuts off.

Water Bath Temperature Sensor


Water temperature is monitored with the Water Bath Temperature Sensor located in the bottom of the Water Bath.

Temperature Bath Controller (TBC) and Heater


Water temperature is controlled by the TBC circuit board. 100VAC supplied to the TBC drives a heater element located inside a foam-jacketed
water bottle. The element is fused and has a control thermistor installed for feedback. The fuse blows at 70°C.
Water bath temperature is adjusted by rotating VR1 on the Temperature Bath Controller circuit board. Rotating clockwise increases temperature.
Counter clockwise, lowers temperature. A jumper is included on the TBC circuit board for 30°C or 37°C water bath operation (c4000 uses 37°C
only).
Two LEDs on the TBC indicate the status of the heater:
• CPU CMD (LED 2) displays the on/off signal status from the card cage
• HEATER (LED 1) indicates when the heater is on/off and when temperature controls are stabilized. The HEATER (LED1) dims when
stabilized or off.

Radiator, Fan and Ambient Temperature Sensor


The heater assembly has a fan/radiator section. The fan for the radiator turns on when water bath temperature reaches 37.2°C and ambient
temperature reaches 28° C. An error is generated if water temperature is outside of the 36.7°C to 37.3°C range. An error is generated if ambient
temperature is below 15°C or above 30°C.
Both Fan and Heater are turned OFF under the following conditions:
• Water Bath is draining
• Water Bath is filling
• Water Bath is priming (air purge)
• System is booting up

Robotic Sample Handler (RSH)
Overview
The ARCHITECT c4000 RSH (Robotic Sample Handler) is the interface through which samples are presented to the system for identification
and aspiration.
The operator places samples into carriers (five sample positions per carrier), which are inserted into the load/unload platform. The Carrier
Transport (robotic arm) picks up the sample carrier from the load/unload platform, positions it at the barcode reader for carrier and sample
barcode label identification, and places the sample carrier on the Carrier Positioner. The Carrier Positioner moves the sample carrier to the
sample aspiration position. After sample aspiration, the Carrier Transport returns the sample carrier to the load/unload platform for removal.

 
Throughout RSH processing, the presence of the carrier is monitored at the following locations:
• Load/Unload Platform- a lever mechanism and sensors located underneath each platform detect the presence of a carrier on the
load/unload platform.
• Carrier Transport Picker Arm- a sensor located on the picker arm detects when a carrier is on the picker arm during transport
between the platform, bar code reader or positioner.
• Bar Code Reader- an error is generated when the carrier label is not detected.
• Carrier Positioner- a reflective sensor on the rear of the Carrier Transport is used to detect the presence of a carrier on the
positioner.
 

Hardware Description
The RSH contains the following main hardware components:
• Load/Unload Platform
• Load/Unload Sensor Boards
• Carrier Transport
• Carrier Positioner
• Bar Code Reader
• RSH Distribution Board
• Card Cage Boards
 

Load/Unload Platform
The operator loads sample carriers into the load/unload platform sections, which positions each carrier for transporting by the carrier
transport. There are four bays on the load/unload platform of the c4000 RSH. Each bay contains five sections. There are a total of 20
sections separated by partitions. Each section accommodates one sample carrier.
 
In the base of each section is a lever mechanism with a flag, which interacts with a set of sensors mounted on the load/unload sensor
board.

 
When a carrier is inserted into a section, the carrier present flag activates the sensors, indicating the presence of the carrier and whether it
is fully seated in the section or partially loaded.
 

Load/Unload Sensor Boards


There are four load/unload sensor boards that correspond to the four bays. The boards are connected in a daisy chain with a termination
connector at the end of the chain.

Note The load/unload sensor boards are not compatible with the i1000 load/unload sensor boards.

 
Light emitting diodes (LEDs) attached to the load/unload sensor boards indicate the state of each section to the operator.
• Indicators off - no sample carrier is loaded in the section
• Green (steady) - sample carrier is loaded, but processing has not begun. Samples can be accessed
• Amber (steady) - sample carrier is processing and cannot be accessed
• Green (blinking) - processing is complete and the sample carrier can be accessed
• Amber and green (alternating) - bar code scan or other error occurred. Carrier can be accessed
• Blue- indicates that the section has been configured for priority processing
- Up to 7 sections can be configured for priority processing on a stand-alone c4000 RSH
- Up to10 sections can be configured for priority processing on a ci4100 integrated system

Carrier Transport
The carrier transport is a robotic device that interacts with the load/unload platform, bar code reader and the carrier positioner. The carrier
transport assembly moves along the length of the load unload platform, riding on a linear rail guide. It interacts with each section to pick up
the sample carrier, move it to the bar code reader and then place the carrier on the carrier positioner. It also returns sample carriers from
the carrier positioner to the load/unload platform for removal.
 

Carrier Transport Front

 
• Picker Arm: attaches to theta shaft, supports and retains the carrier during pick and place operations
• Rail Guide Sensor: sensor in picker arm that detects the presence of a sample carrier
• Theta Motor, Encoder and Shaft: moves carriers in theta axis during pick and place operations
• Z- Motor, Encoder, Shaft and Sensor: moves carriers in the Z (vertical) direction, raising and lowering carriers during pick and
place operations
• X- Motor and Encoder: drives the carrier transport along the rail guide in the x axis
• Flex Chain Connectors: the flex chain contains two cables that provide the control and power signal information between the
carrier transport board and the RSH distribution board.
 

Carrier Transport Rear


 
 
• Carrier Transport PCB: printed circuit board mounted to the carrier transport frame that interfaces all transport assembly motor
and sensor signals to the RSH distribution board via the flex chain cables.
• Carrier Positioner Carrier Detect Sensor- senses the presence of a carrier on the Carrier Positioner.
• X Motor Gear and Rollers- moves the Carrier Transport horizontally along the rail assembly.

2 Roller

3 X Motor

4 X Motor Gear

5 Gear engages teeth under rail

Carrier Positioner
The carrier positioner moves the sample carrier into position for sample aspiration by the processing module sample pipettor.
The carrier positioner consists of the following major components:
• Positioner Tray (contains three pockets)- attached to the slide rail. Each pocket holds one sample carrier
• Carrier Positioner Motor- gear moves the positioner tray along the slide rail
• Carrier Positioner PCB: interfaces the carrier positioner motor and sensor to the RSH Card Cage.
 

RSH Distribution Board


The RSH distribution board is mounted to the left RSH support, behind a protective cover.
It provides the interface circuitry between the RSH card cage and the following:
• Carrier Transport PCB (via the flex chain)- stepper motors and sensor signals
• Load/unload board sensors and LED indicators
• Bar code reader signals
 
 

1 Flex Chain Connectors at Carrier Transport

2 Bar Code Reader

RSH Card Cage


The RSH card cage is located on the right side of the c4000 processing module. It contains the Motor Driver Board, Controller Board,
Indexer Board and Card Cage Back Plane.
 
 
 
Major components of the RSH card cage are:
• Card cage fans- forces air downward through the card cage in order to dissipate heat generated by the RSH card cage PCBs
• Card Cage Backplane- interface for +5VDC, +12VDC, +36VDC power, analog, and digital signals connecting the RSH Card Cage
to the system power supply, SCC, and the electronic devices of the RSH
• Controller Board- CPU controller for the RSH
• Indexer Board- provides motor control data (speed, direction and power)
• Motor Driver Board- provides the drive current to the stepper motor windings.

Integrated ci4100 RSH

Overview

 
1 cRSH

2 iRSH

3 SCC

 
The integrated ci4100 RSH consists of the cRSH (c4000 RSH) and iRSH (i1000SR RSH) connected by a long transport rail and platform
bridge. Both the cRSH and iRSH are manufactured by Toshiba.
The iRSH is manufactured by Toshiba and is not the same as the stand alone i1000SR RSH manufactured by Abbott.
The integrated ci4100 RSH receives power and control signals from the c4000 module Main Power Supply and c4000 module RSH Card
Cage. The SCC is located inside the i1000SR module.
 

System cRSH iRSH

c4000 Toshiba N/A

i1000SR N/A Abbott

ci4100 Toshiba Toshiba

 
When integrating a new c4000 and a new i1000SR, the i1000SR will arrive without the Abbott RSH. The Toshiba add on iRSH will be
installed on the i1000SR module.
When integrating a new c4000 with an existing i1000SR, the i1000SR RSH will be removed, discarded and replaced with the Toshiba add-
on iRSH.
 

Hardware Description

1 RSH Distribution Board

 
There are four bays on the load/unload platform of the cRSH (bays 1-4). Each bay contains five sections. There are a total of 20 sections
separated by partitions. Each section accommodates one sample carrier.
 
The cRSH is essentially the same as the stand alone c4000 RSH except for the following:
• The bar code reader is moved to the iRSH
• The transport rail is longer
• The flex chain is longer
• The cRSH Load/Unload Sensor Boards are connected in a daisy chain to the iRSH Load/Unload Sensor Boards. The terminator is
installed on the last iRSH Load/Unload Sensor Board.

Note The cRSH and iRSH Load/Unload Sensor Boards and Load/Unload Platforms are not compatible.
 

1 Bar Code Reader

2 Bottle Spinner

 
There are four bays on the load/unload platform of the iRSH (bays 5-8). Each bay contains four sections. There are a total of 16 sections
separated by partitions. Each section accommodates one sample carrier or reagent carrier. The bar code reader and bottle spinner is located
on the iRSH.

ci4100 RSH Card Cage and Power Supply


The card cage for the ci4100 RSH is located on the right side of the c4000 processing module. It is the same RSH card cage that is used on
the stand alone c4000 system.
The Main Power Supply in the c4000 module supplies the +5VDC, +12VDC, and+36VDC power for the ci4100 RSH.

ci4100 RSH Sample Processing


Samples, in primary tubes or sample cups, are placed in sample carriers. The sample carriers are then inserted into sections on the load
unload platform. Carriers in the priority sections are processed first, in the order they were inserted, followed by carriers loaded in the routine
sections. The user can configure up to ten priority sections on the ci4100 RSH.
Once sample carriers are loaded onto the load unload platform, the following occurs:
• The carrier transport (CT) moves to the first carrier and picks it up out of the section. The system software and the carrier
detection sensors have already determined which sections contain reagent carriers and which contain sample carriers. The system
software prioritizes the processing order of the carriers.
• The CT moves the carrier to the barcode reader where the carrier ID and sample IDs are scanned. The CT then returns the carrier
to its original section.
• Based on the SID scanned, the system determines whether a test order request exists for each sample in the carrier. If test orders
exist, the CT picks up the carrier and places it on the i1000SR Aspiration Platform or c4000 Carrier Positioner. Module optimization
software determines the processing order for each test requested on that carrier.
• The pipettor aspirates from each sample, as determined by the optimization (scheduling) software. Once sample aspiration is
complete for all samples in the carrier, the CT moves the carrier back to the load unload platform.
• Blinking green indicator lights on the load unload platform indicate that sample aspiration for all samples on that carrier has been
completed and the carrier can be removed by the operator.

ci4100 RSH Reagent Processing


The i1000SR reagent kits are loaded onto the i1000SR reagent carousel through the load unload platform in an automated process. Kits are
loaded on reagent carriers. Each carrier has a specific, color-coded seat for each type of reagent bottle. The microparticle bottle position is a
rotating seat, connected to a cogwheel.
This cogwheel engages with the bottle rotator at the bar code reader scan position so that when a reagent carrier is presented for scanning,
the microparticle bottle is rotated in front of the bar code reader beam, allowing a successful label read.
When a reagent kit is presented to the load unload platform for loading, the system software determines when an acceptable timing
opportunity exists in between sample processing, to allow the reagent to be loaded without interrupting the lockstep routine.
Upon initiation of the reagent loading, the carrier transport picks up the reagent carrier and moves it to the bar code read position. The CT
lowers the carrier until the microparticle seat cogwheel engages with the spinning bottle rotator disk. All 3 bottle positions are then scanned.
If a valid read is obtained, the carrier transport then moves the reagent carrier to the reagent carousel load position and loads it on the
carousel.
The system software automatically schedules an empty reagent kit or a kit with LLS failure for unloading. When there is a timing opportunity
as determined by the software, the carrier transport picks up the reagent carrier from the reagent carousel and moves it back to the load
unload platform for removal by the operator.

AC/DC Block Diagram

1 Control EPLD The control EPLD (Electrically Programmable Logic Device) includes the drive circuits
for the AC motors and DC valves; contains a majority logic circuit for the sensor input,
a sensor and status input register; and interfaces these circuits to the bus.

2 Temperature measurement circuit Temperature information form the temperature sensors is input to this circuit (8-bit
A/D converter. This circuit supports five temperature sensors: for the water bath, for
the reagent supply center 1, for the reagent supply center 2, for the sample carousel,
and the internal temperature sensor. (See Temperature Sensor Adjustment.)
3 Power Supply Voltage Monitoring Circuit This circuit monitors six voltage levels to allow the host CPU to determine whether
each power supply has reached the minimum specified voltage. (See Power Supply
Monitored Detection Voltages.)

4 Other Output Circuits In addition to the circuits mentioned above, the AC/DC Controller board includes the
mixer driver interface circuit, LED drive circuit, and buzzer.

5 General Purpose DIPSW This is a general purpose DIPSW input port used during development. (all switches
should be in the down position)

6 General Purpose LED This is a general purpose LED display port used during development.

7 Reset Circuit The reset circuit outputs the reset signal to each circuit when the power is turned ON
or the reset SW is activated.

8 PCI Interface Circuit This circuit controls the interface bus with the host CPU. This circuit uses an EPLD.

9 Power ON LED This green LED lights when the+5VDC power is supplied.

PM
The PM subsystem detects abnormalities, such as; clots (probe obstructions), air bubbles in patient sample, air bubbles and large amounts
of foam in reagent bottles during aspiration and dispense operations.
Wash pressure is monitored during internal probe washing to determine if the pressure sensed is below or above pressure thresholds
(referenced in the c4000 PM Board firmware).

SM AC/DC Block Diagram

 
Main Functional Areas
 

1 PMC (Pulse Motor Controller) There are two LSI (Large Scale Integration) pulse motor controller types mounted
on the SM AC/DC Board.

2 FPGA Controller The FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) controller consists of AC motor, DC
valve drive circuit, the majority decision logic for sensor input, sensor, lead register
of status, and counter circuitry for PITCH sensors.

3 SM Status LED The stepper motor LED turns red when the Motor Control LSI (Large Scale
Integration) is busy.

4 Debugging LED and Switch 16-bit DIP SW for debugging. The color of the LED is red.

5 Power ON LED The Power Indicator LED is green when the +5V is on.

6 PCI Interface This interface controls the interface bus with the host CPU. This circuit uses a
FPGA.

7 RS232C Interface Provides for communication with a barcode scanner.

AC/DC Driver
 

AC/DC Board

AC/DC Driver PCB


The AC/DC Driver board drives AC (motors, magnet pumps, etc.) and DC components (magnetic valves, etc.) from the AC/DC or
SM_AC/DC controller boards located in the card cage.
 

AC
The driver board receives AC motor rotation control and ON/OFF signals from the AC/DC and SM AC/DC Controller boards. The control
signals are conveyed by SSR (Solid State Relay) to AC motors, magnetic pumps and magnetic valves. The control signal and the input side
of +5 volts are isolated electrically from the output side of the drive circuitry by use of solid state relays mounted in the board. An output
circuit is present to provide feedback to the AC/DC and SM AC/DC Controller boards and to check operation of the device (ON/OFF).

DC Drives
The DC region is controlled by signals sent from the AC/DC and SM AC/DC Controller boards. The control signal and +5volts is isolated
electrically from the output side of the drive circuit by use of a relay mounted on the board. An output circuit provides feedback to the CPU
and monitors the relay’s operation.

Note Magnetic valves are not equipped with sensors so a feedback signal is prepared in the card cage.

Driver Box
The Driver Box Assembly contains driver boards for motors and magnetic valves. The following boards are contained in the Driver Box.
• SMD Board–The SMD Board receives stepper motor control signals from the SMC and SM AC/DC boards. Power for each driver
is supplied from the power supply. Drive signals for each stepping motor is provided by each mounted driver circuit.
• AC/DC Board–The AC/DC Driver Board receives ON/OFF and motor rotation control signals from the AC/DC and SM AC/DC
Controller boards. Drive signals for 100VAC motors, 12VDC magnetic pumps and magnetic valves, are converted by SSR; with the
relay mounted on the board.
• STR-Driver 2 Board–The STR-Driver (Mixer) 2 Board receives control signals for the Piezo Stirrers from the SMC and SM AC/DC
Controller boards, and provide output signals for driving the Piezo Stirrer for each STR unit. The AC/DC Controller board provides
control signals for vertical (up/down) movement of the Mixer Assembly.

IREF Level Detect Board
Correct LED 1 and LED 2 Status
Before the ICT assembly drives down and aspirates ICT reference solution from the cup, LED 1 Read Status and LED 2 ICT Reference Cup
Full turn ON.
LED 2 turns on only when the c4000 module CPU is reading the status of the level sense electrodes in the ICT Reference Cup. During
this brief status check (when LED 2 is on) observe LED 1. If the cup is full during the status check, LED 1 will be on at the same time
as LED 2. If the cup is empty, LED 1 will be off when LED 2 is on.
1. Just before the ICT assembly moves down to aspirate, both LED2 and LED1 turn RED momentarily (cup is full), then turn off.
2. After the ICT assembly aspirates and moves up, LED2 turns RED momentarily and then turns off. LED1 never turns on because the
IREF Cup is empty.

Thermal Bath Controller (TBC) Board
The TBC Board maintains water bath temperature at 37+ 0.3C, keeping the reaction liquid temperature within +0.1C target value.
Ambient air temperature sensors connect to this board. The board provides 24 and 100VAC to control heater, pump, fan, and motor valve.
The pump fan and motor valve are controlled by a photocoupler. The heater is controlled by the CPU using the thyristor (solid-state semi
conductor acting as a switch to turn the heater On/Off).

Main Power Supply
Outside voltage is supplied to an isolation transformer via circuit protector and line filter. The transformer converts input voltages to 24VAC
and 100VAC.

Primary Input
The c4000 uses external AC voltage from 200VAC to 240VAC (± 10%). Five corresponding selector plugs; 200, 208, 220, 230, and 240 are
available on the transformer. The plug closest to external voltage should be selected.

Output
The power supply generates continuous 100VAC to individual power supply. The individual power supply generates:
• +3.3, +5 and ±12VDC
• +12VDC separately for magnetic values
• +24VDC for the SMD
• +5, ±12 and ±36VDC for the RSH
• ±15VDC for analog (feedback) circuitry
• +11.45VDC lamp power supply
The powers supply is equipped with no fuse breakers (NFB), an emergency stop switch, and power indicator LED board for monitoring active
status of various DC power supplies. Relays control AC system output and low-voltage supply.

Retrieve Current Logs Option

This option captures logs for troubleshooting or software investigation. The table below details each log and describes when that log
is used. The log name has the following format: date_24time_serial#_logname.xxx (where x-axes is the extension of the log file). The
files may be copied to a floppy disk, CDR/CDRW disk or hard drive. If floppy disk is selected the logs are compressed and saved to
1 or more floppies. If CD is selected the files are recorded uncompressed to a blank or appendable CDR or CDRW disk. If hard
drive is selected the files are saved uncompressed to D:\Logs. In addition, all logs are saved in an archive file (refer to Copy Archive
Logs to the C Drive option for additional information).

Copy Database to CD Option

This option backs up the database to the C: drive, compresses the database and records it to a CD. Once copied, the compressed
file is deleted from the C: drive. This option may be required when requested for software investigation.

Copy Archive Logs to CD Option

This option allows the user to copy previously retrieved logs from the hard drive to a CD. When the Retrieve Current Logs option is
selected, copies of the logs are compressed into one file and stored in D:\LOGS\ARCHIVEDLOGS. The file is named with the
following format: date_24time_serial#_[1-5}.zip. Up to five compressed archived logs are saved on the hard drive with 1 being the
newest and 5 being the oldest. The user is able to copy one or more archive files to a CD at a time.

Retrieve Memory Dump File Option (FSE only)

This option compresses and records the memory dump file to a CD. The memory dump file is used to gather data (debug
information) on the utilization of system memory for the SCC.

P-215 PM Log Interpretation

Purpose Use to interpret PM log data after performing procedure P-204 Log Retrieval Procedure. Module SCC
Materials Required Floppy, CD, or modem for retrieval Time N/A

Example of PM Log:

The above sample represents only some of the potential errors. More than one error can occur, such as the 0X0150, because they
are or'd (combined) together. The 0X00150 shows a communications error and clot (0X0010) and two shape errors (0X0020).

PM
Definition Probable Cause and Corrective Action
Status

0X0001 Invalid Syringe PMIB is telling Syringe to cut on/off too early.

Try PMIB, LLS Board, Software protocol, experiment protocol

0X0002 Air Only No liquid was picked up during aspiration. Also known as front end pulse error.
Aspirated
Check LLS to see if it is triggering above the liquid
Check for droplets on side of container (condensation, splashing)
Is the container empty?
Check for connection tightness, and then start with sensor

0X0010 Clot Detected Clot Score Exceeded 1000. A clot was sucked in during aspiration.

Bad Samples. Check sample, especially if whole blood, for chunky bits (clots). Replace if clumpy.
Try a new probe then a sensor. Be sure to flush using CLI command for the pipettor (OMS XX
JGXXXX) before running PM again.

0X0020 Shape Error Shape Error. Air was aspirated after liquid was sampled. Shape score in log exceeds 180

Sample fluid not homogenous (usually blood samples)


Probe hitting side of container. Check Robo Cal
Erratic LLS. Check LLS log for consistent liquid found position
Can be loose robot components (mount screws or Z-Motion Slop)

0X0040 Start /Stop


0X0100 Communications Suspect when you get multiple different errors on the same pipettor. Can be combined with another
Error number.
0X0500 Communications The system may not see all the data.
Error
Broken or open connections on PMIB board. LLS/PMIB Connector wires broken. Check
connections or replace PMIB
Replace LLS Board
It has been observed that the PM/LLS components sometimes work fine except in certain
combinations with a particular pipettor. Try swapping the whole set of parts between a working
pipettor and the one in question.

0X0200 Over Pressure Overpressure detected.


Detected For overpressure, either the probe or sensor is clogged or the probe hit the bottom of the container and
sealed off without z-crashing.

0X0400 Under Pressure Under pressure detected.


Detected For under pressure, check for liquid in container
General If you get a large number of errors on a single pipettor regardless of sample size, the probable causes
are:

Sensor (erratic, not linear any more, leaking)


PMIB
Connections
LLS Board

P-216 WAM Log Interpretation Version - 96756-111_286_2

Inspect tools for damage, ensure calibration is not expired and replace if necessary.
 
At the completion of this VP: G110 - After repair is complete, verify per released Operation and Service Procedures. If the system/instrument produces
results, ENSURE appropriate Quality Control is in specification and calibrate as necessary.

P-216 WAM Log Interpretation

Purpose Use to interpret WAM log data after performing procedure P-204 Log Retrieval Procedure. Module SCC
Materials Required Floppy, CD, or modem for retrieval Time N/A

A guideline to use for the WAM Station Delta at each probe position is that it should be at least 1250 units (1.25 C (33.6 F) degrees).

The WAM Log record structure (each line of data) is:

Date Current_Time Module_ID Zone_Number St1test# St1Max St1Delta St2test# St2Max St2Delta St3test# St3Max St3Delta

06/10/1998 17:36:43 |1 |2 | 25 | 27274 | 34 |0 | 27649 | 852 |0 28808 | 2651

St1, St2, St3 means station 1, 2, 3 in that order.

Note
In the logfile, it is all squeezed together to conserve disk space and looks like:
06/10/1998 17:36:43|1|2|25|27274|34|0|27649|852|0|28808|2651

Note
Aspirations occur twice per lockstep - this means two lines of data for each lockstep.

Note
If no RV is present at a probe position, data is reported, but is very low. This occurs as an RV enters and moves through a wash zone.
At the first lockstep when an RV enters a wash zone, the data for Probe 1 looks normal, while the data for probe 2 and 3 is low. At
lockstep 2, the data for probe 1 and 2 should look normal, while the data for 3 is low. At lockstep 3, the data for all three probes should
look normal. (This assumes that there are at least three (3) RVs in the process path.)

Circuitry Verification of ICT Reference Level
Detect Board LED Operation.
The ICT Reference Solution Cup contains
level sense electrodes used to sense the
presence of ICT Reference Solution. When
the cup is full, the solution covers both
electrodes and provides a conductive
pathway between the electrodes. After the
ICT Module completes the aspiration, the
fluid level will drop below the electrodes and
there will be no conductive pathway between
the electrodes.
The analyzer confirms ICT Reference
Solution is dispensed and aspirated correctly
by detecting the solution level in the ICT
Reference Solution Cup before and after
aspiration.
If solution is not detected prior to aspiration,
the systems will generate error code 5622
Unable to process test, ICT reference
solution cup not filling.
If solution is detected after aspiration, the
system will generate error code 5623 Unable
to process test, ICT reference solution not
aspirated.
When the ICT Reference Solution is not
properly detected, the analyzer will stop
measuring the ICT assay, flag the
associated results and generate an error
code that is added to the message history
log. The analyzer will stop but the cup is not
drained. So the level of solution left in the
cup after an error, is the same level of
solution that generated the error.
The level detect electronic signal pathway is

Operation 3. Just before the ICT assembly moves
down to aspirate, both LED2 and LED1
turn RED momentarily (ICT Reference

4. After the ICT assembly aspirates the
ICT Reference solution and moves up,
LED2 turns RED momentarily and then
turns off. LED1 never turns on because
the ICT Reference Cup is empty.

Off-White SCC Hardware and Cabling Installation

CAUTION Lifting Hazard The monitor is heavy and


unwieldy and the monitor arm may move
during installation. You may need two
people to do this safely.

Note A 9-pin serial connector–on the back of the SCC–is configured for the LIS connector. This connector will be configured for COM 5 (for LIS). If
the only non-USB peripheral attached to the SCC is an LIS connection, a 4-port Edgeport EMSA is not required. The EMSA must be installed
if an ARM, serial modem, serial touchscreen or other peripherals are interfaced with the SCC; and the LIS system must be connected to the
EMSA.

Note The COM port for the USB modem is configured automatically. Use the USB monitor touchscreen cable when connecting the monitor cables
to the SCC. If a USB cable is not available, attach the serial touchscreen cable to the SCC serial port. The touchscreen cable and the 4-port
EMSA must be attached to the SCC prior to base configuration software installation. This ensures the COM ports are configured correctly and
the correct driver is configured for the touchscreen. If the Edgeport EMSA is attached to the SCC and a USB modem is not detected during
base configuration installation, the SCC will be configured for a serial modem.

Off-White SCC Hardware and Cabling Installation

CAUTION Lifting Hazard The monitor is heavy and


unwieldy and the monitor arm may move
during installation. You may need two
people to do this safely.

Note A 9-pin serial connector–on the back of the SCC–is configured for the LIS connector. This connector will be configured for COM 5 (for LIS). If
the only non-USB peripheral attached to the SCC is an LIS connection, a 4-port Edgeport EMSA is not required. The EMSA must be installed
if an ARM, serial modem, serial touchscreen or other peripherals are interfaced with the SCC; and the LIS system must be connected to the
EMSA.

Note The COM port for the USB modem is configured automatically. Use the USB monitor touchscreen cable when connecting the monitor cables
to the SCC. If a USB cable is not available, attach the serial touchscreen cable to the SCC serial port. The touchscreen cable and the 4-port
EMSA must be attached to the SCC prior to base configuration software installation. This ensures the COM ports are configured correctly and
the correct driver is configured for the touchscreen. If the Edgeport EMSA is attached to the SCC and a USB modem is not detected during
base configuration installation, the SCC will be configured for a serial modem.

CAUTION Lifting Hazard The monitor is heavy and


unwieldy and the monitor arm may move
during installation. You may need two
people to do this safely.

Note A 9-pin serial connector–on the back of the SCC–is configured for the LIS connector. This connector will be configured for COM 5 (for LIS). If
the only non-USB peripheral attached to the SCC is an LIS connection, a 4-port Edgeport EMSA is not required. The EMSA must be installed
if an ARM, serial modem, serial touchscreen or other peripherals are interfaced with the SCC; and the LIS system must be connected to the
EMSA.

Note The COM port for the USB modem is configured automatically. Use the USB monitor touchscreen cable when connecting the monitor cables
to the SCC. If a USB cable is not available, attach the serial touchscreen cable to the SCC serial port. The touchscreen cable and the 4-port
EMSA must be attached to the SCC prior to base configuration software installation. This ensures the COM ports are configured correctly and
the correct driver is configured for the touchscreen. If the Edgeport EMSA is attached to the SCC and a USB modem is not detected during
base configuration installation, the SCC will be configured for a serial modem.

buffer reservoir and place the reservoir on the floor in
front of the wash buffer storage area.
3. Do not install the buffer filter. It will be installed after the
internal decontamination is complete.
4. Fill the upper hopper with RVs.
5. Load trigger and pre-trigger solutions.
6. Prepare 10L of buffer in one of the provided buffer
preparation containers. (This also will be used when
performing the Internal Decontamination procedure,
disregard the instructions to prepare buffer, as the
remainder of this mixture will be used at that time.)
7. Only a small amount of buffer will be loaded initially in
order to perform a system flush and calibrations. The
remainder will be loaded after the system is flushed with
bleach solution.
8. Place the sinker of the buffer transfer tubing into the
prepared buffer.
9. Attach the transfer tubing to the buffer inlet port on the
analyzer.
10. Access the Update supplies screen. Check to update
each of the consumables, including the option to Add

transferred to the reservoir! (See 1.5L marking on side
of reservoir). The system will stop the transfer.

Note Default count for RVs is 160 when new


software is loaded. The RVs will not drop until
the system is initialized (Startup). Do not
manually force/fill the RVs into the lower
hopper.
