2.9.9 Linearity
Prepare samples of different concentrations, analyze the samples, and calculate slope
coefficient and intercept in the linearity regression equation. Then calculate the theoretical
value and the deviation between the theoretical value and the test value.
2-9
2.9.10 Deviation between Different Modes
The way to measure deviation between different modes: perform calibration under each
mode using fresh blood or calibrator, then analyze a normal fresh blood sample for 5 times
under the autoloading mode, open vial whole blood mode and open vial predilute mode
respectively, and calculate the deviations of the parameters between the modes.

2.9.11 Correlation Requirements of the Analyzer and
Comparator
1. Requirements of Deviation of the Analyzer and Comparator
Analyzer a fresh blood sample or calibrator with traceability for 5 consecutive times on a
comparator of good conditions and calculate the mean of each parameter. Take the means as
targets, and calibrate the analyzer to be tested with the sample or calibrator mentioned above.
When the calibration finishes, test another fresh blood samples for 5 times on the two
analyzers respectively and calculate the deviation rate of the means of each parameter.
Deviation requirements: WBC - 3%, RBC - 2%, HGB- 2%, PLT - 5%, HCT or MCV
- 2%.
Test at least 100 fresh anticoagulated venous blood samples (able to cover the reportable
range as much as possible, with at least 50 abnormal samples) for 2 times on the comparator
and the analyzer respectively, calculate the mean and the correlation coefficient R.

3.11 Uni-directional LIS Communication
3.11.1 Function overview
1. Auto communication of the normal samples
Before the auto communication, check if the auto communication is selected and the LIS
communication is normal (if the LIS is connected properly, the dark blue cursor at the
bottom right will be highlighted, when the mouse move to the cursor, it will prompt
Connected as shown below.
After the counts, the analyzer will transmit the sample results to the DMU (Data Managing Unit)
at the PC, if the auto communication setup is correct and connected properly, the results will
be transmitted to the LIS automatically and the communication is normal. The samples on the
Review and Report screen will marked with a tick at the communication column which is
shown as follows, if the communication fails, it will prompt the note at the screen as follows.
3-48
Figure 3-56 Successful communication mark 1
3-49
Figure 3-58 Communication failure mark
a. Only the LJ results whose QC sample ID is set can communicate automatically when
reaches the DMU, other QC data can be communicates manually.
b. After the QC counts finish, the analyzer will transmit the QC results to the DMU, if the
auto communication setup is correct and the LIS is connected properly, the results
will be communicated to the LIS automatically.
Before the batch communication, ensure that the LIS is connected properly.
For the normal sample results, batch communication can be done on the Review and Report
screen. After the communication is successful, relevant sample results will be marked with
communicated.
Enter the report screen, select several samples and right click, click the communication
3-50
button; or just click the Communication button on the tool bar and the selected samples
will be communicated to the LIS.
During the communication, the communication progress bar will be shown at the bottom of the
DMU. Move the mouse to the progress bar, a note will prompt, click Cancel and cancel the
batch communication.
Click the OK on the following screen, the communication mission will stop, after the
communication error is removed, start the communication again.

Click the "Communication" button; select All data or Specified data, and then click the
Start button to transmit data as follows:
The batch communication of the QC sample results can be done at the QC screen, click the
Communication button at the QC Table screen, then click Start on the note to transmit the
data.
3-52
Figure 3-64 Batch communication of the QC data
2. If the communication fails, the following tips will prompt. The reasons for the failure may
be as follows:
1)Communication setup at the DMU is not correct, set the communication based on the
communication setup guide.
3-53
2)DMU and LIS are not connected successfully. Check the cables and lines to see if the
LIS can be used.
Note: there are over 10 cases for the failure judgment by the program, such as network
connection error, serial port is engaged, data not transmitted, failed to receive the LIS,
response format error of the LIS.
3. Communication timeout
Reason: DMU fails to receive the response because of timeout or the respond message does
not meet the requirements of the protocol. In this case, check if items of the communication
setup at the DMU are correct, check if network is connected properly and whether the respond
from the LIS meets the protocol. If the communication is timeout caused by the busy network,
cancel the ACK Synchronous communication on the communication setup screen. Note:
After the data is transmitted, ACK refers to the response that transmits to the DMU by the LIS.
3-54
Figure 3-67 Bi-Directional LIS/HIS Communication
When bi-directional LIS/HIS is enabled, you can only enter the "Sample ID", "Mode", "Rack
No." and "Tube No." in the "Worklist" screen.
For any item in "Ready" status in the worklist, you can edit the mode whenever needed.
Click the "New" button; Enter the sample ID, click any other text box or click the "Save" button.
DMU sends a worklist request to LIS/HIS. If there is a valid result, it will be displayed on the
screen, as shown in the figure below.
3. In open-vial analysis (not as per worklist): if bi-directional LIS/HIS is enabled, after you
enter or scan the sample ID and save it, the DMU will request information of this sample,
and then perform analysis based on the responded information. When the analysis if
finished, the analysis results, graphics, and sample information will be send to LIS/HIS;
3.12.4 FAQ
1. If the server fails to start up, the DMU will prompt "Fail to start up monitoring. Please
restart the terminal software or change the communication port, and then try again." In
this case, check for incorrect communication setup of DMU. E.g. set LIS/HIS to be the server
3-56
when "Terminal Software as Server" in communication setup is selected; or select the wrong
port. See 3.10 LIS Communication Setup for how to set communication port.
2. If LIS/HIS is disabled, "No LIS/HIS Connection Available" will be prompted and the saving
fails. In this case, check whether the DMU and LIS/HIS is properly connected, and whether the
DMU communication setup is correct. To check the connection between DMU and LIS/HIS: if
the connection is proper, the LIS icon will be in dark blue, and if you place the mouse on it,
there will be a prompt of "Connected", as shown in the figure below.
2 If the analysis mode is not attained or the responded mode is not valid, there will be
a prompt "Analysis mode ineffective". In this case, check whether the analysis
mode acquired from LIS is valid.
3 If the patient information inconsistent with the "Data Dictionary" of DMU, there will
be a prompt of "Information acquisition ineffective". In this case, check whether
the patient information acquired from LIS is valid.
C.Undefined type. E.g. the presentation mode is neither "OV" nor "AL".
D.Invalid data in one field of patient information. E.g. date of birth later than system date.
3)Acquired mode inconsistent with the current mode. E.g. in autoloading analysis, the
acquired presentation mode is open-vial.

4 Operation Principles
4.1 Measurement of the Optical Channel
4.1.1Laser Flow Cytometry
The blood sample reacted with certain amount of lyse and fluorescent dye is injected into the
conical flow cell filled with diluent by the sample probe. Surrounded with sheath fluid (diluent),
the blood cells pass through the center of the flow cell in a single column. When the blood cells
suspended in the diluent pass through the flow cell, they are exposed to a laser beam. The
intensity of the light scatter reflects the blood cell size and intracellular granularity. The
low-angle forward scatter reflects cell size, the high-angle side scatter reflects intracellular
granularity, and the intensity of fluorescent signal reflects the contents of RNA and DNA in the
cells. The light signals are collected and converted into electrical pulses. Each blood cell will
generate electrical pulse in the directions of low-angle, high-angle and fluorescent light scatter.
Pulse data collected can be used to draw a 3-dimensional distribution (scattergram), with the
low-angle FS, high angle SS and fluorescence FL as the axes. The scattergram reflects cell
size, intracellular granularity and contents of RNA/DNA. The blood cells are differentiated
according to their different clinical characteristics.
The BC-6800 Auto Hematology Analyzer can obtain scattergrams of 4 channels, which are
DIFF, BASO, NRBC and RET channels. The DIFF channel differentiates lymphocytes,
monocytes, neutrophils and eosinophils; the BASO channel differentiates basophils; the NRBC
channel differentiates nucleated red blood cells; and the RET channel differentiates
reticulocytes.

Forward scatter
Cell size
The NRBC scattergram includes WBC region and NRBC region. The ratio of particle number in
the NRBC region (NRBC#_N) to the particle number in the non-ghost region of the NRBC
channel (WBC_N) is NRBC%_N, which is the NRBC% in the analysis report. The number of
NRBCs can be calculated by multiplying the WBC# and the NRBC%.
NRBC#_N
NRBC%=NRBC%_N= 100%
WBC_N
4.1.3WBC-Related Parameters
The spots in the Bas region of the BASO scattergram reflects number of basophils (Baso#_B),
and all spots in the scattergram reflects number of WBCs (WBC_B). The basophil percentage
(Baso%) can be obtained through calculation. As the NRBCs are also recognized as
lymphocytes, the NRBC# shall be deducted from WBC#.
WBC= WBC _ B
100% NRBC%
Baso#= Baso#_B
Baso #
Baso%= 100%
WBC
The DIFF scattergram contains the lymphocyte (Lym#_D), neutrophil (Neu#_D), monocyte
(Mon#_D) and eosinophil (Eos#_D) cell populations; the ratio of particle number in each region
to the total number of WBC particles is the percentage of each cell population, namely
Lym%_D, Mon%_D, Eos%_D and Neu%_D. In the DIFF channel, NRBCs are recognized as
lymphocytes, and basophils are recognized as neutrophils, so NRBC# must be deducted from
4-2
WBC# to get the true percentage of each cell population.

WBC_D (100% NRBC%)
4.1.4RET-Related Parameters
The ratio of particle number in the RET region to the sum of particles in the mature RBC region
and the RET region is the RET percentage. RET# can be calculated by multiplying RET% and
RBC#.
In the RET extension scattergram, the ratio of particle number in the high fluorescent region to
the particle number in the RET region is the high fluorescent RET ratio (HFR); the middle
fluorescent RET ratio (MFR) can be calculated likewise; the low fluorescent RET ratio can be
obtained by deducting HFR and MFR from 100. The immature RET ratio is the sum of MFR
and HFR.

4.2 HGB Measurement
4.2.1 Colorimetric Method
HGB is determined by the colorimetric method. The diluted sample is delivered to the HGB
bath where it is mixed with a certain amount of lyse, which converts hemoglobin to a
hemoglobin complex. An LED is mounted on one side of the bath and emits a beam of
monochromatic light. The light passes through the sample and is then measured by an optical
sensor that is mounted on the opposite side. The signal is then amplified and the voltage is
measured and compared to the blank reference reading (readings taken when there is only
diluent in the bath), and the HGB is measured and calculated in the analyzer automatically.
4.2.2 HGB
The HGB is calculated per the following equation and expressed in g/L.
HGB=
4-4
Each pulse is amplified and compared to the voltage thresholds of the RBC/PLT channel, and
then the number of pulses in the RBC/PLT channel is calculated. That is to say, the pulses
collected are sorted per the voltage thresholds of different channels, the number of pulses
falling in the range of the RBC/PLT channel is the number of RBCs/PLTs. The number of cells
in each channel defines the volume distribution of cells. The analyzer presents the RBC/PLT
histogram, whose x-coordinate represents the cell volume and y-coordinate represents the
number of the cells.
Back flow may be produced when cells pass through the aperture under the effect of vacuum,
or the overlapping of cells increases the probability of occurrence of M wave in the pulse
signals, which may affect the accuracy of analysis results. To solve the problem, sheath fluid
function is added to the RBC/PLT channel of BC-6800. Blood cells injected by the sample
probe pass through the aperture one by one in a queue under the "focusing" effect of sheath
fluid in the front and back baths, so that regular pulse signals can be produced to generate
more accurate results. The sheath fluid impedance method also relaxes the requirement on
sample dilution; second dilution of the RBC channel is not needed anymore, and the accuracy
of results can be ensured.

3-way valve: to switch among passages. When power off, the public end and the NO (normally
open) end are connected; when power on, the public end and the N.C.(normally close) end are
connected.
Note: the operating voltage of Mindray valves is 12V, and maximal bearable pressure is
200KPa. The internal movement of the valves is driven by electromagnet and the restoration is
driven by the spring, so it is recommended not put the valves power-on for too long. When the
electromagnet valve is working, the spring pole will lower down, and it will rise to the initial
position when power off. You can touch the spring pole and feel the descending or ascending,
in order to determine whether it is in action.

5.10 Pneumatic System
5.10.1 Pneumatic System
The pneumatic unit provides pressure and vacuum for the daily operation of the BC-6800 main
unit. The compressor and the relief valve provide the pressure (about 250KPa) and vacuum
(about -85KPa) respectively. The pressure drives the air to go through the air filter to remove
the impurities in the air (dust, water drop, etc.), and then dried by the drier. The air will then be
regulated by 3 valves to generate the pressures (160KPa, 70KPa, and 40KPa). The vacuum
drives the air to go through the relief valve and throttle pipe, and get the -40KPa and -70KPa
vacuum.

5-22
Function: similar to 3-way electromagnet valves, but mainly used in the pneumatic
system.
Note: read the label of the gas valves carefully to know the specification and model. When
the gas valves are powered on, the indicator of the valves will be red. While servicing the
analyzer, you may press the pink button on the gas valve to manually make the valve work.
Make sure you are not pressing too hard or using sharp tools which may damage the button.
The operation voltage for gas valves is also 12V AC.
Pinch valve
Symbol:
Appearance:
Function: the pinch valve is driven by pressure. When the 250KPa pressure is brought to
the pinch valve, the pressure lever in the valve will be propped up to cut off the passage of the
liquid flow.
Note: since the pinch valve is pinching the tubing while working, so it is not working when
the analyzer is in the standby status, in order not to protect the tubing. Pinch valves are
categorized into 2 types according to the size of the through hole, one of which is 8mm, the
other is 5mm.

Process description: the M-68LN LYSE is aspirated from its container and dispensed
into the NRBC preheating bath by DP04 (1mL). The preheated lyse will be pushed out and get
to the SRV, bringing the blood sample (20uL) in the SRV into the NRBC bath. The lyse first
lyses the normal red blood cells, and then breaks down other cells by osmotic pressure. The
M-68FN DYE is then dispensed into the NRBC bath by DP11 (20uL), and combine with the
nucleic acid in white blood cells or nucleated red blood cells. The mixture is stirred during the
whole process (referred to as incubation process) to facilitate the reaction. After incubation, the
sample is pushed by DP08 (1mL) to go through pinch valves PV03 and PV05, and then
aspirated into the sample preparation tubing. The syringe (250uL) then pushes the sample to
go to the flow cell. Wrapped by the sheath fluid, the sample flow goes through the flow cell
while the optical system starts to identify the cells passing through the flow cell. These signals
will then be analyzed and processed to get the NRBC scattergram. After the measurement, the
analyzer will clean the flow cell and downstream tubing with diluent, and the syringe will
restore to the initial status, getting ready for the measurement of next channel (BASO).

Process description: the M-68LH LYSE is dispensed into the HGB bath by DP01
(0.52mL). At the same time, the diluent in the DIL cistern is pushed into the HGB hole of the
SRV by DP02 (1.0mL), and bring the sample (4uL) in to the HGB bath. The sample is mixed by
small bubbles generated by the 70KPa pressure. Place the well-mixed in still for a while and
then measure the voltage. Since the blank voltage of the sample is attained before the
measurement, the HGB can be calculated based on the colorimetric equation.
The liquid collecting and discharging channel is composed of the DIL cistern, FCM cistern, SCI
cistern, WC1 (waste cistern 1) and WC2. See the Figure 1-12 for the connection of the fluidic
parts.
The DIL cistern assembly consists of a cistern, a 3-way gas valve (GV44) and a 2-way fluidic
valve (SV54). GV44 is to switch the pressure and vacuum of the cistern. When switch to
pressure, the cistern send liquid to the fluidics; when switch to vacuum, the SV54 open the
cistern, and then the cistern is primed with diluent from the diluent container.
The FCM cistern assembly consists of a pinch valve (PV14), 8ml Diaphragm pump (DP12) and
fluidic valve (SV55) and the gas valve GV56. The inside of the FCM cistern is at 0.16Mpa in
normal status, and it can be primed with diluent from the diluent container when DP12, PV14
SV55 and GV56 are open.
The SCI cistern assembly consists of a 2-way gas valve (GV73), a 2-way fluidic valve (SV47)
and a buffer cistern (TC3). When SV47 is open, the SCI cistern will be primed driven by the
pressure in DIL cistern; when GV73 is open, the pressure in the SCI cistern is initialized (to
0.04Mpa).
WC2 is an open cistern driven by atmospheric pressure. Its outlet is connected to WC1 by the
pneumatic pinch valve PV07. When PV07 is opened, the waste in WC2 is discharged into
WC1.
WC1 consists of a 3-way gas valve (GV48) and a pneumatic pinch valve (PV13). The air-fluid
separation of WC1 and GV48 is done by the buffer bath TC1.The switch of on and off status of
the gas valve makes WC1 switch between pressure (0.07Mpa) and vacuum (-0.04Mpa). The
vacuum drives it to collect the waste from the fluidics, while the pressure together with the
PV13 facilitates the discharge of the waste.

The process of the open-vial predilute analysis is almost the same as that of the whole-blood
analysis;
Differences between the two modes: the predilute sample is diluted before being analyzed by
the analyzer ; 2. in the predilute mode, the sample volume for optical counting and RBC
counting is 3 times to that in the whole-blood mode, so the time for analysis is longer;
You can achieve automatic batch analyses of blood samples by using the autoloading
presentation mode, which includes transporting and feeding of tube racks, tube grabbing,
automatic aspiration of sample, etc.;

6 Optical System
6.1 Introduction of Optical Theories
The Laser beams of the optical system of BC-6800 irradiate on the blood cells processed by
reagents, which are passing through the flow cell, and the forward scatter, side scatter and
side fluorescence of each cell are collected. The forward scatter reflects cell size, the side
scatter reflects the nucleus and granule information inside the cell, and the side fluorescence
reflects the nucleic acid information inside the cell. By analyzing and processing the three
optical signals, we can analyze the blood cells of the blood samples tested.
6-1
The optical system of BC-6800 uses the semiconductor laser (1) as optical source. The 635nm
red laser beam irradiated by the optical source is aligned by the laser alignment lens (2), and
then shaped by the cylindrical lens A (3) and B (4), thus forming elliptic laser beam irradiating
on the sample flow (6) in the flow cell (5).
Laser
Flow cell
Sample flow
Sheath fluid
The blood cells processed by lyse and fluorescent dye are wrapped by sheath fluid, producing
hydrodynamic focusing effect by the flow cell. The blood cells go through the flow cell in
sequence as shown in Figure 6-2. The blood cells irradiated by the laser beam disperse
scatter light and fluorescence, while the direct light not being dispersed is blocked by the direct
light blocking diaphragm (7).
The forward scatter (9) with scattering angle 1~10 passes through the direct light blocking
diaphragm (7), and is collected by the back light lens (8), and then passes through the forward
parasitic light dispelling diaphragm (10), finally is converged to the forward PD (11) to form the
forward scatter signal.
The side scatter (14) and side fluorescence (17) are collected by the side scatter collecting
lens (12), the dichroscope reflects the side scatter of which the wavelength stays the same,
and transmits the side fluorescence of which the wavelength gets longer, thus separating the
side scatter and side fluorescence. The side scatter passes through the parasitic light
dispelling diaphragm (15) and is converged to the side PD (16) to form side scatter signal;
the side fluorescence passes through the parasitic light dispelling diaphragm (18) and the long
pass filter (19) to filter side scatter, and then is converged to PMT (20) to form fluorescence
signal.
The three optical signals go into the signal processing board to be amplified and processed,
thus forming the scattergram.
6-2
6.2 Optical System Structure
Disassemble the top cover of the incubator of BC-6800 optical system, the components are
shown in the following figure.
6 Inner light shield (with the dichroscope assembly 12 Laser drive board
in it)
The semiconductor laser (635nm), laser alignment lens, cylindrical lens A and B are within the
front light assembly. The laser drive board (12) provides stable power input for the front light
assembly, which irradiates shaped laser beam to the flow cell. The inspection assembly (2)
includes flow cell assembly and rectifier assembly; the rectifier assembly can form stable flow
6-3
of sheath fluid in the flow cell. After being irradiated by laser, the cells in the flow cell transmit
scatter and fluorescence. The back light assembly (3) includes direct light blocking diaphragm
and back light lens, which collect and converge the 1~10 forward scatter transmitted by the
cells to the sensitive surface of the forward PD assembly (4). The side scatter collecting lens is
installed on the front of the three-dimensional adjusting frame (5). The lens can be fine-tuned
from three dimensions to ensure the collection and convergence of side scatter and
fluorescence. The dichroscope under the inner light shield (6) reflects side scatter and
transmits fluorescence. The side scatter is converged to the sensitive surface of the side PD
assembly (7), while the fluorescence passes through the long pass filter in the PMT assembly
(8) and is converged to the PMT sensitive surface.
The optical components are all installed on the base plate assembly (9). There is heating
diaphragm under the base plate assembly, which controls the temperature of the optical
system. The optical system is inside the incubator so as to shield the system from outside light,
heat, shock, electromagnetic field and dust.
Consumables
4k-07 standard particle (7um), 1.5mL centrifugal tube, fine-fibrous dust-free cloth, absolute
alcohol
Procedure
Abnormal scattergram may appear for many reasons. Analysis must be done to find out the
real reason.
First, check if the analyzer reports error messages, if yes, remove the errors. If abnormal
scattergrams are found without error messages reported, check if the scattergrams of the 4
channels (DIFF, BASO, RET and NRBC) are all abnormal. If only one of them is abnormal,
failure of the entire optical system can be excluded, and then the fluidics, reagent or
temperature control system shall be checked.
Log on the system with the password of service engineer, click the menu "CalibrationOptical
Gain Calibration" to enter the Optical Gain Calibration screen and select mode as "Standard
Particle (debug)".
Mix the 4k-07 standard particle bottle, put 1 drop of the standard particle into 5mL of de-ionized
water to form a standard particle sample.
6-4
Present the sample to the open vial sample probe, press the aspirate key to run standard
particle (debug) mode analysis. The scattergrams of standard particle will be displayed
automatically when the analysis finishes. Note that the total number of particle 1 shall be
greater than 2000, or else the amount of particles is sufficient. You should add more standard
particles added into the centrifugal tube and re-run analysis.
The analysis results of 4k-07 standard particle, the FS and SS CG position must be within the
range of Table 5-1.
FS CV 2.3%
SS CV 17.2%
If the CV and CG position all meet the requirements in Table 5-1, but the scattergrams of blood
samples are still not in optimal status, failure of the optical system can be excluded, and the
fluidics, reagent or temperature control system shall be checked.
If the CV meets requirements in Table 5-1, but the CG position does not meet the requirements,
re-calibrate the analyzer as instructed in the optical system gain calibration section.
Click "Maintenance" in the menu to enter the maintenance screen, and click the "Flow Cell"
button in the "Probe Cleanser Maintenance" region, then perform probe cleanser maintenance
of the flow cell as instructed by the screen prompts.
Disassemble the top panel and right panel of the analyzer with the cross-headed screwdriver,
and then remove the top cover of the optical system incubator.
Wipe the surface of the flow cell with clean dust-free cloth dipped with absolute alcohol. While
you are wiping the flow cell, check if the tubes are damaged, if so, replace the tubes. After
finishing the operations above, cap the top cover of the incubator, and re-run 4k-07 standard
particle and fresh blood to see if the problem is solved.
Note:

Static protection
Do not run analysis when the top cover of the incubator is not firmly capped, or else, the PMT
may be damaged easily.

If yes, replace the connection line and install the top cover of the optical system incubator.
Start up the analyzer to see if the laser tube current is still abnormal, if so, replace the optical
system.

7.2.6 Troubleshooting
Table 7-4 lists the frequent errors and troubleshooting methods of the data and COME carrier
board. When error occurs, follow the table to see if the problem lies with the board. The table
only lists hardware errors, the same error caused by fluidic, optical, reagent or software
problems are not included (go to other related chapters in this manual to find the
7-10
troubleshooting methods).
Before troubleshooting the data and COME carrier board, be sure to check:
1. if the power board output is normal (if the error is related to the power source);
2. if the wires connected to data board get loose; if the wire No. and socket No. on
the data board matches; if the connection is reliable; and if the wires are
damaged.
3. if the power input is normal; check if the indicators of the data board are OK
according to Table 7-2.
After problems of the connection, input power and indicators are all excluded, and restarting
the analyzer also fails to solve the error, go on to analyze it as per the following table.

7.8.1 Overview
To generate scatter and fluorescence signal, a driving source (illuminating beam) of scatter
and fluorescence is required. The semiconductor laser in BC-6800 fulfills the function, and it is
driven by laser drive board.
The laser drive board is in the optical module of the analyzer, it is connected to the
semiconductor laser and the motherboard. It obtains power supply and control signals from the
motherboard, and sends laser drive current to the motherboard in turn. It also drives the
semiconductor laser to generate constant-power laser.

7.8.2 Functions
The laser drive board realizes constant-power control by conducting constant-power control
over the laser (LD)(the photoelectric detector inside the laser conducts real-time monitoring
over the output power of the laser, and forms closed loop feedback control system). See the
following figure for the system diagram.

The following table lists the frequent errors and troubleshooting methods of the laser drive
board. When error occurs, follow the table to see if the problem lies with the board. The table
only lists hardware errors, the same error consequences caused by fluidic, optical, reagent or
software problems are not included (go to other related chapters in this manual to find the
troubleshooting methods).
1. If the error is related to power or voltage, check if the power board output is normal first, and
then check the power input of the boards.
2. Check if the wires connected to motherboard get loose; if the wire No. and socket No. on the
7-41
motherboard matches; if the connection is reliable; and if the wires are damaged. After shutting
down the analyzer, test if the test points in the optical board are connected to the
corresponding test points in the data board with a multimeter (of buzzer status), then you can
tell if the connections of wires or sockets are OK.
After problems of the connection and input power are all excluded, and restarting the analyzer
also fails to solve the error, go on to analyze it as per Table 7-20-. The 12V power error listed
in the table refers to power error caused by the laser drive board.
When the optical shielding box is open, the laser is off , and blood cell counting cannot be
performed (default setting of the analyzer). If you want to turn on the laser under such case,
you can short-circuit the two adjacent soldering holes of interface J3 on the board.

7.9.1 Overview
The WBC and RET measuring principle of BC-6800 five-differential auto hematology analyzer
is: differentiating WBC and measuring RET by analyzing cell size, internal graininess, and
absorbance of fluorescent dye.
The forward scatter signal (FS) of a cell represents the cell size;
The side scatter signal (SS) of a cell represents the intracellular density;
The side fluorescence signal (SF) of a cell represents the absorbance degree of
fluorescent dye of the cell.
The scatter signals must be transferred into current signals to be processed by the circuit. The
current signals are then be transferred to voltage and amplified, and then collected by ADC to
be sent to the back-end for logical processing and analysis. The photoelectric conversion,
current-voltage conversion, signal amplification and sorting are done by the analog circuit.
The analog circuit consists of two parts: the front part is scatter preamplification board, which
forms optical sensor (in the optical module of the analyzer) together with other optical
7-43
components and fluidics, its functions include photoelectric conversion, I/V conversion and
amplification of signals; the back part is analog circuit (placing on the data and COME carrier
board), its functions include signal sorting and collection of signals by the ADC. The
preamplification board that processes FS signal is called FS preamplification board, while the
preamplification board that processes SS signal is called SS preamplification board.
The scatter preamplification boards are connected to the data and COME carrier board
through the motherboard. See Figure 7-24 for the connection status. The preamplification
board is connected to the mother board through shielding wire. The board obtains power
supply from the motherboard, and also transfers its output signals to the data and COME

1. When checking connection status of the valve, be sure to check if the pins if interface
J1~J3 are bent, especially the pins by the sides of the interfaces (this is generally
overlooked).
2. There are two red indicators on the valve drive board, when the wires of the same
board are incorrectly connected, the red indicator will turn on. When you find the red LEDs
are on, check if the connection wires are correctly connected.
3. You can check if there are errors in the valve drive circuit from the analyzer screen.
Click the system menu"Maintenance""Debug""Valve Confirmation", then click on
the valve No. (shut down the pneumatic unit first from the analyzer screen) and check the
status of the corresponding indicator on the valve drive board. Generally, then clicking on
a valve No., the corresponding indicator will turn off for 1s and then turn on. If the indicator
is always off, that means the valve drive circuit is damaged or the connection wires are not
correctly connected; if the indicator is always on, that means the valve drive circuit is

Confirmation
1)After replacing the optical system, you need to prime the fluidic system, confirm the
proper functioning of the optical system and re-calibrate the optical gain.
2)Follow the steps below to check the optical system and re-calibrate the optical gain:
This chapter describes how to test the optical system by using standard particles
to verify the status of the optical system. 7um standard particles are used for the
check and calibration. There are two standard particle test modes, which are
Latex(CAL) mode and Latex(Debug) mode. The CAL (calibration) mode use the
same sequence as normal whole blood analysis, while the Debug mode use a
dedicated sequence for the optical system. Test must be done in the two modes.
Note: the standard particle mixture ratios of the two modes are different, please pay
attention to the ratios.
9-74
7um standard particle: 5ml purified water + +1 drops of standard particle
Tap "Calibration" - "Optical Gain" in the system menu. Select "Latex(Debug)" in the
"Mode" area. Present the prepared 7um standard particles to the open vial sample
probe, press the aspirate key to start analysis.
When the analysis finished, check if the standard particle results are in required range.
Record the data of which the "Total" is more than 2000. The scattergrams are
supposed to be with well congregated particles, and without tiering or tailing.
FS CV 2.3%
SS CV 17.2%
9-75
Prepare standard particle
Select "Latex (CAL)" in the "Mode" area of the optical gain calibration screen. Present
the prepared 7um standard particles to the open vial sample probe, press the aspirate
key to start analysis. When the analysis finished, check if the standard particle results
are in required range. Record the data in the total number of particles cell.
FS CV 3.9%
If the standard particles tested in the Latex(CAL) mode and Latex(Debug) mode both meet
requirements, the optical system is working properly.
Note: if the CV of the particle is out of expected range, there may be contamination in the
optical system. You can perform probe cleanser soaking or wash the flow cell manually to
clean.
Note: After the confirmation procedures above are completed, you need to re-calibrate the
optical gain.
9-76
Preparations:
z The analyzer is working properly, and its background, optical gain, performance
stability and carryover all meet the requirements.
1) Log in the system with R&D password, click "Calibration" - "Optical Gain Calibration"
in the system menu.
Note: select working material on the mode screen. If calibrators are tested under the
standard particle mode, the flow cell may be clogged or get dirty, see the following
figure. Under such case, run probe cleanser under open vial mode for 1-2 times and
exit the screen, then run blank counting at the analysis screen and the background
results meet requirement.
2) Select mode as working material, test the mixed calibrator under open vial mode for
3 consecutive times (the analysis can go on normally only when the screen is not
grayed out).
3) Select the DIFF, BASO, RET and NRBC channel respectively to perform the
verification.
4) The mean of the 3 analysis results will be calculated automatically, including FS, SS
and FL.
5) Enter the calibrator targets of FS, SS and FL channels into the CG Target cell, the
relative deviations of the 3 means and the targets will be calculated automatically.
The deviations must be smaller than 2%.
Note: Run analysis for 3 times with different channels selected, the optical data of each
channel will be displayed.
If recommended that you test calibrators first and then enter the targets to avoid making
mistake.
9-77
6) If the deviations of the calibrator means and the targets of all channels are smaller
than 2%, the optical channel of the analyzer meets requirements, recalibration is not
needed.
7) If the deviations exceed 2%, click " ", a new gain will be calculated
automatically (displayed in the Gain cell). When the FS, SS and FL gains of a
channel (e.g. DIFF channel) are calculated, click "Save", the current gains will
replaced by the preset gains. When the calibration of DIFF channel finishes, select
BASO, RET and NRBC channels to perform the gain calibration operations above.
There is no FL direction for the BASO channel. Remember to click "Save" at the
screen of each channel.
Note: you can only set up the preset gain once. Do not go back the previous screen to
set up the gain again after the switching.
8) When the gain calibration operations are done, switch mode to "Standard Particle",
the software will prompt you to clear data, click "OK" and select mode as "Working
Material", then run calibrators for 3 times to see if the deviations of the means of DIFF,
BASO, RET and NRBC channels and the target are smaller than 2%, if not, perform
calibration again until the requirement can be met.
Note: when the calibration requirement is met, take a picture for the verification screen of DIFF,
BASO, RET and NRBC channel, or tapping F11 on the USB keyboard to capture the screens,
and then save the pictures to a USB.

Since Tube 9 is a hard gas tube, use tweezers or diagonal pliers while plugging
and unplugging. Do not use violence in service which may damage the parts
that the tube is connected to (e.g. valve port);
The tube connecting the piercing probe and the SRV is of fixed capacity. When
this tube is damaged, make a FRU application for a new one to replace.
Double tube can not be replugged since the TEFLON tube inside may get
damaged and lead to liquid leakage. Therefore, replace any double tube if it is
unplugged in maintenance.
Note: the tube from the piercing probe to the SRV is a independent unit in FRU, and is
calibrated separately.
If you want to replace this tube, unscrew the connector to the bottom of the piercing probe,
remove the blood sensor, and then remove the tube and install a new one.

10 Error Code
10.1 Overview
There are 2 areas for error information in count screen. One is message area which is on the
right side and the other one is at the bottom which is called error area. Please refer to
Figure10-1 for details.
The reason why we divide it into 2 parts is to separate errors of analyzer itself from errors
which come from samples.
Message Area
Error Area
M-68DR expired
In message area, there are mainly 3 kinds of messages, insufficient aspiration, clogging and
HGB analysis abnormal. Normally, insufficient aspiration is displayed in WBC Message area,
while clog and HGB channel abnormal are displayed in RBC Message area.
1: If algorithm detects abnormal result, it will display message in message area. This kind of
message does not have error code and we dont need to pay too much attention to it.
2: Abnormal is detected from signals. For example, blood sensor detects aspiration abnormal.
It also may be caused by clumped blood, so it is not recognized as analyzer error thus it is
displayed in Message Area.
Normally, if there is information in Message Area, user doesnt need to do other operation but
to re-test or re-collect blood sample.
10-1
Information in Error Area mainly indicates errors of analyzer itself, such as pressure or
temperature abnormal, reagent insufficient, etc. When this kind of error happens, it needs user
to do some certain operation to remove the error, or it needs engineer to solve the problem.
For errors in Error Area, you can find the error code and description when you click it, very
easy and clear to understand. As long as we know the possible causes, we can repair it
accordingly. Figure 10-2 shows the screen after clicking the Error Area.
In DMU log, Error of Message Area is classified as Error Event, while Error of Error Area is in
both Error Event and Report Error, referring to Figure10-3. So to find Error Area errors we
only need to check Report Error item.
For errors in Message Area, we can only separate them by error codes. Error code is like this:
0X3201XXXX-XXXX-XXXX, in which the first 8 bits are error codes while the rest 2 segments
respectively indicate the current software and the sequence which analyzer is running when
error happens.
Error code of Message Area starts with 0X3201, while Error Area error code starts with
0X0000.

2Sample tube is empty;
Possible cause
If Insufficient Aspiration error happens very frequently, it may be caused by the following
reasons:
3.Note: If hospital usually tests this kind of blood sample, it is recommended to disable
blood sensor or use open vial model.
10.2.2 Clog
Principle
Software analyzes aperture voltage and pulse signal systematically to decide if there is clog
error. If there is clog error, result will not be displayed and system will give error message.
10-4
Error Code
Error
Error ID Principle
Name
NOTE: Principle of error code 0013 is different from others. This error is given out by
checking aspiration status. In order to prevent RBC and HGB parameter from fluctuating,
analyzer will give clog error if blood sensor1 detects lots of tiny bubbles in the sample area
which is used for RBC and HGB channel. Normally user only needs to retest if this error
happens and problem will be removed.
Possible Reasons:
Normally clog error does not happen continuously and frequently. If it happens just by
chance, we just need to click Remove Error to remove it.
2.Aperture blocked;
3.Signal interfered;
10-5
10.2.3 HGB Analysis Abnormal
Principle
Software detects HGB channel signal and result. If there is anything abnormal, it will give
error.
Error Code
Possible Reasons:
1.No bubble is generated for mixing. Please check if tube T206 and T208 are blocked or if
there is liquid left in these tubes, which may result no bubbles for mixing;
Detection principle is the same for lyses and diluent. When there is reagent, signal from
the sensor will be different from that when there is no reagent. When reagents go through
the detection tube, analyzer will detect the signal from sensor and give out error message
if abnormal. Please refer to Figure10-5.
Sensors for fluorescence reagents are the same to blood sensor, so is the principle.
10-6
Sensor
Detection
Reagent
tube
container
Errors for reagents consist of no reagent error, reagent insufficient error, reagents need to
be replaced or primed after being reloaded, reagents expired and reagent sensor error.
Error Code
Error is given out when detection sensor detects that there is no reagent or there are
bubbles in the detection tube. It may be caused by broken connector, tubing leaking or
empty reagent container. The difference between no reagent error and reagent insufficient
is that: When there is no reagent error, registered reagent volume has not run out and
normally user can remove it by clicking Remove Error. If there is really no reagent, user
needs to reload new reagent barcode and replace reagent.

2Reagent Insufficient
Error is given out when registered reagent volume runs out. In this case, you need to
reload new reagent barcode and replace reagent.
10-8
3After reloading analyzer will prime or replace reagent.
After loading new barcode, software will give error. Please click Remove Error and
analyzer will replace or prime reagent automatically. If the former reagent is expired,
analyzer will execute priming after loading new barcode. If it is not expired, analyzer will
execute replacing.

4Reagent Expired
Reagent exceeds expiration period. Please load new barcode and execute priming.
10-11
Temperature controlling system includes pre-heating bath, reaction bath and analyzer
temperature. Analyzer uses a sensor to detect temperature inside the analyzer. For
pre-heating bath and reaction bath, heating system consists of 3 parts, heater,
temperature sensor and overheat protector. Heater is used for heating, temperature
sensor for detecting while protector is used for protecting.
Temperature error is divided into two kinds, working temperature error and running
temperature error. Running temperature error means analyzer detects that temperature is
abnormal while testing sample or executing some sequence and gives error. Working
temperature error means analyzer detects that temperature is abnormal when it is not
running sample test.
Temperature error also can be divided into 4 kinds: low, high, extremely low and extremely
high. Extremely low or extremely high means temperature exceeds the required working
temperature, and test is not allowed. Low or high means temperature exceeds running
temperature and user can also run test but result may become inaccurate.

Analyzer has 6 pressure sensors which are PS1PS6, detecting 250KP, 160KPA, 40KPA,
70KPA, -40KPA and -70KPA respectively. Analyzer will detect pressure regularly. If there is
any pressure out of normal range, it will give error.
Pressure error is divided into two situations. The first situation is when analyzer is running
test which we call running status and the other situation is when analyzer is not running
test which we call static status.
Error Code
0x00003012 160kPa pressure out of range 160KPa static pressure exceeds normal

10.3.4 Floater Error
Principle
When floater is at top position output signal of the floater is different from that when it is at
lower position. System detects the signal of floater to determine liquid status in the
chamber. If abnormal, error will be given out.
Chambers which use floater are DIL chamber, FCM chamber, SCI chamber, WC1
chamber and WC2 chamber.
Error Code
Possible Reasons
Floater error may be caused by broken floater, liquid priming or draining problem.
System detects analyzer status by sensors, including front cover and optical system.
There are 2 kinds of errors for front cover error. The first one happens when it is running
test, whose error removing does not cost long time. The other kind happens when
analyzer is running test or executing other liquid sequence. Analyzer will reset the system
10-18
during removing error, so it will cost longer time.
Error Code
Analyzer has one RBC syringe(100ul), one WBC syringe(250ul) and one whole blood
syringe(2.5ml). Each syringe has one motor and one home sensor. System detects sensor
signal to check if syringe is working normally. If abnormal, error will be given out.
