PDM Software

Overview

Roche PDM software includes three applications that allow the system

administrator to configure the Roche PDM system and to monitor

system activity.

This section describes these administrative applications.

Refer to Section 2 for a description of the Archive Management

application, which is used to retrieve, review, and print archive records.

In addition to these functions certain Roche PDM Pooling

Manager and Data Manager functions are restricted to users

assigned a LABADMIN or higher role (refer to page 1.34).

The administrative application screens have the same layout and

contain the same global command buttons as other PDM

applications. Refer to Screen Layout in the cobas s 201 system

Hardware and Software Reference Manual for details.

Enabling UDECs

The cobas s 201 system supports processing of user-defined external

controls (UDECs). The User Defined External Controls topic allows the

laboratory administrator to specify whether the laboratory can process

If UDECs are enabled, the operator is prompted at the beginning of

each pooling run whether to include UDECs in that run.

1 Click the Config button to start the PDM Configuration

application.

2 In the left panel, expand the General category and then expand the User

Defined External Controls topic (Figure 1.9).

Entering UDEC Barcodes, Lot Numbers, and Expiration Dates

When UDECs are loaded on the pipettor deck, the barcode reader scans

the barcodes of each tube and compares the scanned value with the UDEC

barcodes defined by the laboratory administrator. UDEC barcodes, lot

numbers, and expiration dates are entered using the PDM Data Manager

application UDEC tab (Figure 1.10).

Information in the User Defined External Control panel, at the top of the

UDEC tab, is specified in the PDM Configuration application

(see page 1.13).
