Note to the users of the ABL90 FLEX analyzer Introduction
This note to users outlines the most significant changes and improvements of software version 2.4 in the English version of the ABL90 FLEX reference manual (994-527).
Changes/Description
Brief overview of the change
CHAPTER 3: Calibration
pCO2, cGlu, cLac calibration With the warm start feature in software version 2.4, the last sentence in this section: When a new sensor cassette is installed, the sensitivity calibration is performed more frequently" is not necessarily true and should, therefore, be ignored. The text should, therefore, be as follows: pCO2, cGlu, cLac are sensitivity calibrated on CAL3 and status calibrated on CAL1. For further information on the pCO2, cGlu, cLac calibration, see Calibration of the pCO2 sensor in section pCO2 sensor and Calibration of the metabolite sensors, in section Metabolite sensors in chapter 5 in this manual. pCO2, cGlu, cLac are sensitivity calibrated every four hour and status calibrated with every measurement.
CHAPTER 5: Calibration
Sensitivity, Definition. In the table with the sensitivity range limits, the pO2 max % value has been changed from 105 to 110%.
The sensitivities are range checked: pH

CHAPTER 7: For ClO4– , interference on cK+ (4 mmol/L level), cCa2+ (1.25 mmol/L level), and cCl (110 mmol/L level) has been detected for test concentration 1.5 mM and the other test concentration levels should be ignored. The new interference results are, thereafter, as follows:

CHAPTER 10: Conditioning in As a manual conditioning of the sensor cassette pack is not sensor cassette pack possible for the time being, references to this option are no longer not possible valid and, therefore, the following analyzer messages no longer exist in software version 2.4: 972
Sensor conditioning due
1080
Installed sensor cassette was not registered as conditioned
1333
Sensor conditioning started, no BC
1334
Sensor conditioning started, BC
Warm start No. 1340
With the new warm start feature in software version 2.4 the following new analyzer message has been included: Message
Interpretation
Sensor cassette This message is used in the Activity maintenance by log to indicate startup using a sensor Analyzer has cassette which has been left without been interrupted an FTC activity for more than 1 hour.
Operator action No action required
TABLE OF CONTENTS/INDEX: Conditioning in sensor cassette pack not possible
As the pack with the sensor cassette cannot be used for conditioning, the name of the pack has been changed from Conditioning unit to Sensor cassette pack.
Technical documentation
The manual will be updated with the above information as part of the next manual update.
