Cleaning the surface of the instrument
The external surface of the instrument can be cleaned

wipe that has been pre-impregnated with the cleaning
agent.
Do not use bleach or aggressive chemicals to
clean the surface.
Do not autoclave the plastic parts.
The following reagents are recommended external

Common test data matrices
The following data matrices can be scanned to
configure the instrument in routine dispensing.
Follow instructions on page 25 on how to modify the
parameters and on how to store them as preset on the
system. Custom data matrices can also be generated
as described in the application sheet “ReadyStream
®
creating custom data matrix codes”.
