Keep these tips and tricks in mind to get the most out of your Xpress Flex testing experience.
TIPS | FIGURES |
---|---|
Check lot codes and expiration dates located on the bottom of strip containers. These should match the selected options during the water test. |
|
Shuttle should be empty and closed when XFConnect is started. If not, the Xpress Flex will need to be unplugged to reset. |
|
When using the Iron and Phosphate prep reagents, add them into the respective chambers before adding sample water. This improves mixing. |
|
When loading the strip clip, use only the strips for the tests you need for the water evaluation. This may just be Flex 3 strip. |
|
Use the strip loader to make sure the strips are properly aligned. |
|
Be sure to have audio available on your computer to hear audible cues. |
|
Dip timing is important. Pay attention to the sounds and animation as instructed. Remove promptly. Avoid flinging water. |
|
Begin test prep for the next water sample while the Xpress Flex is testing the current sample. |
|
Always remove strips from Xpress Flex after testing. |
