Error: Internal Error
An error occurred during the
internal diagnostic test.
Solution:
Turn the meter off and
remove the batteries. Wait
at least 1 minute before
re-inserting the batteries in
the battery compartment.
Re-set the date and time as
described in the Meter Setup
section of this manual.
Caution: The date and time
must be set correctly.
Repeat the test. If you see the
same error message again,
the meter has a defect.
Error: Measurement Error
Measurement error caused
by the blood sample.
Solution:
Do not touch or remove the test
strip when a test is in progress.
Be sure to apply the blood drop
to the test strip within 15 seconds
of sticking the fingertip.
In rare cases, Error Message 7
can occur in patients with long
coagulation times (> 8 INR). If
this error message appears again
when the test is repeated, the
result must be checked using
another method.
The CoaguChek XS PT test
strip may be used for patients
under a combination therapy
of oral anticoagulants plus
heparin injections. Under no
circumstances should heparinized
capillary tubes be used for
sample application. If capillary
tubes are used, please use only
the dedicated CoaguChek
capillary tubes.
