Chapter 1 System Description

Data Station

Overview

The Data Station contains the video display monitor, computer and 

keyboards. The CELL-DYN 3000 operations are controlled by 

high-speed microprocessors that monitor system status, perform the 

various analytical routines used by the instrument, perform diagnostic 

checks and store result data.

Serial data (ASCII format) may be output to a Laboratory Information 

System (LIS) through an RS-232 connector. Data may be transmitted 

either automatically as samples are processed or by command of the 

operator. Parallel data may be output to an on-line printer.
