CAUTION: Manual removal or exchange of samples in the SAL waiting area presents
a health risk to patients and test results. Manual removal or exchange of samples may
adversely affect the health of patients due to incorrect treatment. Do not manually
remove or exchange samples in CARs on the laboratory automation system. Do not
change the CAR sequence. Keep the track hood closed.

Operating element
The operating element is used to configure the modules according to the user requirements.
Use is similar for all modules.
Samples are input on the GLP systems Track. The touchscreen user interface (UI) is a
display format where the operator can perform procedures, troubleshoot errors, and retrieve
information.
Touchscreen UI
• Displays the module status of the Sample Access Line
(SAL)
• Displays error messages that are used for
troubleshooting
• Displays corrective actions for the error messages
Functions
• Provides online, pause, offline, and service modes for SAL
• Initializes SAL
• Stores input settings

Workflow
Sample processing is controlled by the Alinity ci-series system control module (SCM). Based on
the module configuration and the analyzer configuration, pipetting can be performed on all
processing modules.
Pipetting
• The sample tube remains in the CAR.
