The cobas

®

8000 modular analyzer series is composed of

2 main components:

• The instrument includes the analytical modules, the

control unit, and other core components.

• The cobas

®

8000 data manager consists of a PC

which coordinates data in real time between the

instrument and the host.

Every effort has been made to ensure that all the

information contained in this publication is correct at the

time of publishing. However, the manufacturer of this

product may need to update the publication information

as output of product surveillance activities, leading to a

new version of this publication.

Where to find information The Online Help contains all information about the

product, including the following:

• Routine operation

• Maintenance

• Safety

• Troubleshooting information

• A software reference

• Configuration information

• Background information

The Safety Guide contains important safety information.

You must read the Safety Guide before operating the

instrument.

The Quick Reference Guide provides you with an

overview of pre-routine and routine tasks on the data

manager and instrument.

The Operator’s Manual focuses on routine operation

and maintenance. The chapters are organized according

to the normal operation workflow.

A separate Operator’s Manual is available for the

cobas

®

8000 data manager.

The PC manufacturer’s manual contains all information

about the control unit hardware.

What is new in publication version 5.0?

This section provides an overview of all major changes in

this publication and the software.

New layout and structure Resulting from customer feedback, we have updated the

layout and the structure of this publication to help you

find information easier and perform tasks quicker.

cobas e flow (e 801 module) cobas e flow is a feature of the data manager and the

e 801 module. cobas e flow tests are a pre-defined

combination of conventional immunology tests.

cobas e flow tests can be ordered from the data

manager and the host. They are managed via the data

manager. The involved immunology tests are performed

automatically on the e 801 module.

u About cobas e flow tests on the e 801 module (298)

Multi-application tests (e 801 module) Multi-application tests use the same reagent cassette,

but with different measurement protocols from different

applications.

Up to 4 applications can be part of 1 multi-application

test. The different applications have individual application

code numbers. Multi-application tests are pre-defined in

the application file.

Unlike cobas e flow tests, multi-application tests can be

ordered manually on the control unit or automatically by

the host.

u About multi-application tests on the e 801

module (305)

Quick Start Mode (e 801 module) When you enable the quick start mode, the instrument

can start a run in approximately 6:30 minutes instead of

about 12 minutes. Some steps, such as the reagent prime,

are only performed once when the instrument is powered

on, not during preparation for a run. You need

administrator access rights to enable the quick start

mode.

What is new in publication version 4.2?

This section provides an overview of all major changes in

this publication and software version 05-01.

This version requires Windows 7 on the control unit,

Windows XP is not supported.

Mixing sample types and container types on a

rack

You can consolidate different sample types and container

types on a single rack. Sample consolidation can be

useful, for example, if the instrument is connected with a

CLAS. The CLAS can use the same rack range for pre-

processing of different samples types.

On the Standard tab of the Rack Assignment dialog

box, you must define a rack range for the sample type

None to consolidate samples. The information about the

sample type and in some cases also the information

about the container type is sent via HL7 protocol to the

control unit.

u About mixing different sample types on a rack (453)

Reagent registration by maintenance pipe You can include registration of reagents in a

maintenance pipe. Then new reagents are registered on

c 701/c 702 modules and the maintenance action

inventory update is performed on e 602 modules.

If you execute a maintenance pipe with this option, you

do not need to register new reagents manually. After

returning from manual cleaning mode, the required

reagent registration can be executed by a maintenance

pipe. If the reagent registration was already performed

before, it is skipped in the maintenance pipe.

u Creating a maintenance pipe (557)

Overwriting editable parameters when

updating an application

When you download an updated application from the

data manager, you can now choose between the

Overwrite option and the Partial Overwrite option:

• To download the application with all new settings,

choose the Overwrite option.

• To keep the settings of all editable application

settings, choose Partial Overwrite option.

In previous software versions, editable application

settings were not updated when you downloaded an

updated application from the data manager.

New ISE calibration scheme ISE Standard High is also used as compensator (S3).

u About calibration methods for ISE tests (374)

Further changes and improvements • By limiting the number of racks on the instrument via

the new Rack Delivery dialog box, the turnaround

time of racks is improved.

• Integration of ISE data alarms: If an ISE.N or ISE.E data

alarm occurs, it is attached to all ISE test results for

this sample.

• For ISE calibrations, the software now uses separate

compensated limit checks for slope and calibrator S3

concentration.

• The user rights for downloading application settings,

calibrator data, QC material data, and special wash

data are reorganized.
