Configuring Instrument Connections

Overview

Instruments are defined in CCLAS EL to allow for the assignment of samples to instruments, batching by instruments, and result.

As well as defining instrument maintenance details, instruments are assigned to schemes so that when work is submitted for a particular scheme, then it is possible to assign samples to specific instruments, for workload reports and batching.

This process is pertinent to LIMS configuration personnel and laboratory managers who configure CCLAS for use in the laboratory.

Process

Instruments are maintained using the Setup application. You need specific rights to have visibility to this application.

Instrument connections are defined to allow for the capture of results. The connection defines the protocol of transmission between the instrument and CCLAS EL.

This process is typically undertaken by the CCLAS Support Team.
