Analyser Test Information Cartridges

• Only use genuine InSight V-IA cartridges provided by Woodley Equipment Company.
• There is a barcode on the cartridge. It shows the Lot Number of the cartridge. InSight V-IA Plus will read the barcode to recognize which items and which Lot is being tested.
• The Lot Number and the name will show on the information of the barcode.

Lot Number Name Rule:

• Long Lot Number: H0ABYYMMXX
• Short Lot Number: ABXX

• The arrow indicates the direction the cartridge is inserted into the analyser.
• The sampling port is where the sample is added. Please follow the instructions provided with the test
• The detection window is the area the analyser will read the fluorescent signal.

C Line:

• This cannot be seen by the user. It is a fluorescent control line which the analyser will use to check the result of the cartridge.

T Line:

• This cannot be seen by the user. It is a fluorescent test line. The analyser will read the fluorescent signal and ID chip information to give the result.

Blue Line:

• This can be seen at the end of the detection window.
• When the sample has been added to the cartridge correctly, the blue line will disappear after the sample has flowed over the detection window. If the blue line is still visible after the incubation time, the analyser will show ‘Test invalid’ after the test has been completed.
  • Caution: If the blue line is still obviously visible after analysis, please check if the test has been completed correctly.

Insert the Test Kit:

• Notice: Please insert the test kit to the end of cartridge holder.

chip
