Analyzer Overview
What can your Urine Analyzer do?
Your Pro Advantage Urine Analyzer is a portable, bench top analyzer for reading the manufacturer urine reagent strips.
Training for this instrument is not required or necessary. Multiple urine strip types can be used with this analyzer.
Specifically the Pro Advantage 2 parameter (P080012), 4 parameter (P080014) and 10 parameter (P080010).
You have the ability to use a Patient ID and also select the color of the urine prior to testing each patient sample. This
information will be displayed along with the test results on the print out. This analyzer has a simple four (4) button
configuration that allows for quick access to choose any menu option, and also allows for quick entering and exiting out of
selected menu options
Is calibration required?
The Pro Advantage Urine Analyzer does not require daily calibration, as the instrument performs a system calibration
each time it is turned on.
How does the analyzer work?
The user has the option to input the Patient ID and also select the urine color before running the patient sample. Testing
starts when Urine Test is selected on the main menu screen. From this point you have 5 seconds to dip the urine
reagent strip, blot the edge of the strip and place it on the test strip bed. The analyzer will then count down from 60
seconds to 14 seconds before the test strip table is pulled into the instrument to read the urine reagent strip.
How are results reported?
Each result will be shown on the LCD screen and printed (if desired). The results can also be transferred to a computer
using a 9-pin serial cable and the RS-232 serial port on the back of the instrument. The analyzer retains results from 1000
patient tests. You are able to search for past patient results on the analyzer using the Urine Data menu option.
What powers the analyzer?
The analyzer has a connection in the rear of the machine which uses a power adapter that can be plugged into an
electrical outlet for use on a bench top.
How many patient samples does the analyzer store?
The analyzer will store 1000 patient results and patient ID numbers.

3. Testing
How to run a test:
The Urine Test screen is accessed by using the arrow keys to highlight Urine Test (see Fig. 3), and then press the
“YES” key to enter the testing mode (see Fig. 4).
Figure 3: Main Menu Screen Figure 4: Testing Screen
Figure 5: Strip Alignment
After the Testing Screen is entered (Fig. 4), the analyzer will give the user 5 seconds to dip the urine reagent strip
into the urine sample, blot the strip lengthwise, and place the strip on the strip bed. The analyzer will beep once
confirming that the strip has been placed on the strip bed, and then the analyzer will count down from 60 seconds
to 0 (testing time). At 14 seconds remaining in the testing period the analyzer will move the strip bed into the
analyzer to begin reading the color of each parameter.
Once the testing time has expired the results will appear on the screen (see Fig. 6). The analyzer will also print
the results automatically if the analyzer has been set up to automatically print results. The date, time, patient ID,
and color will be printed along with the test results (see Fig. 7).
The test results displayed on the screen and the printout will include the following information:
Patient ID or both
Test date
Time
Color
Results
From the strip bed, remove the used urinalysis strip and dispose of it according to your standard laboratory
procedures. Wipe the strip bed, if necessary. Report the results to a laboratory supervisor or physician.
Figure 6: Results Screen Figure. 7: Print Out
The results will be displayed on the LCD
screen until another test is run, or until the
user chooses to return to the main menu.

PS-733 Rev 00-3/10 10/23
How to run continuous tests:
The Pro Advantage Urine Analyzer has an optional continuous testing mode which allows the user to run
consecutive tests without returning to the main menu. After the Pro Advantage Urine Analyzer has finished
displaying the results on the LCD screen, the analyzer will then accept another test strip. The analyzer will again
start its count down from 60 seconds. The user will then place another sample on the strip bed to begin testing.
The analyzer will beep once again and recognize the strip placed on the strip bed. At 14 seconds remaining in the
testing period the analyzer will move the strip bed into the analyzer, to begin reading the values of each
parameter.
If the user doesn’t have enough time to dip the strip into the next patient sample and place the strip on the strip
bed, the user can also press the “YES” key any time during the testing time to restart the testing time at 60
seconds.
