1.2 Preface
The optional mobile scanner Gryphon™ GM4100-HC facilitates the registration of virtual work place
names during routine operation on the cobas p 612 and cobas p 612. At this, manual inputs are
substituted by scanning a barcode label attached to the rack.
By working with virtual work place names, you can assign individual designations to racks and
subracks during operation, independently from their original work place name. Especially when dealing
with labeled archive racks, this can be used to facilitate the samples' retrieval by adding the label's
content (barcode or textual name) to the work place name within the LI-record towards the host.
NOTICE
The installation described below may be performed by a trained service technician or likewise
qualified personnel only!

General information
1.3 Safety guidelines
Roche PVT GmbH explicitly points out that all safety regulations concerning handling devices of the
protection class I (protective earth conductor) must be heeded. It should be strictly avoided to work
within the housing with the mains switch turned on. If this would become necessary regardless, the
work must be carried out by trained and qualified personnel only, abiding all safety regulations.
DANGER
Electrical Shock!
Disconnect the mains power supply before working inside the device.
Also make sure that it cannot be reconnected during your work.
Among others, these parts are supplied by mains:
Rear side of the connector panel (mains connector)
Line filter
Power Distribution Module (PDM)
The following instructions should strictly be heeded when putting the system into operation and when
repairs are carried out by a service technician:
Do not remove any parts of the housing, before it is ensured that the system has been
disconnected from the mains!
When specific service or repair work on the internal components has to be carried out with the
system still being connected to the mains, be careful not to touch any live parts or connectors inside
the housing.
While the system is in operation, a disconnection or loose contact on the protective earth conductor
inside or outside the instrument constitutes a potentially lethal danger. Intentional disconnection or
removal of the protective earth conductor therefore is prohibited.
1.4 Disposal
The device must be disposed of in compliance with the respective national and international laws and
regulations.

3. Repeat these steps on every work place the mobile scanner is supposed to be used on.
Short Guide Mobile Scanner Gryphon™ GM4100-HC – V1.1 – 02/2012 13
Routine operation
4. Routine operation
As soon as the system has finished its initialization at the start of a work cycle, the system opens any
drawer of the output sorter containing a (sub)rack which utilizes virtual work place names
(refer to chapter 3.4 for details). A message will pop up requesting you to enter the racks' virtual work
place name.
Figure 17: scanner input request
Utilize the mobile scanner to read the barcodes on the corresponding racks. Close the drawer(s) again
in order to resume operation.
NOTICE
The barcode must not contain blanks or special characters (like *, /, ; ?,...).
With every change of an affected rack during operation, a renewed input is necessary for the
replacement rack. However, the system will not allow you to reuse virtual work place names previously
assigned. Only after a data reorganization ('Routine' 'Clear Data'), the list of already used virtual
work place names is deleted, and any previously used designation will be available again.
Virtual rack names, along with their original counterparts, are stored in the 'vname' subdirectory and
also shown on the 'Routine' 'Sorting Lists' report view.
In addition to the original work place name, virtual work place names are transmitted to the host as part
of the LI-record as well. The record will show both the original name and the virtual one, separated by a
circumflex "ˆ".
Subracks
If the affected work place has been divided into multiple subracks, the procedure described above
remains the same. But instead of the virtual work place name utilized for the whole work place, now
each subrack's virtual name will be required.
