This section describes the explanation of general outline of IDS Labora-tory Automation System, its configuration, safety precautions, safety la-bels, and markings used throughout this manual.General InformationA
AA−1 This section describes function and features of Laboratory Automation System.System Overview◆ What does Laboratory Automation System do?   Laboratory Automation System automates sample preparation processes        based on the aliquot/sort information from the host computer and through       C-CPU (Line Control CPU) that controls each unit.        Automating routine and labor intensive tasks enhances the efficiency of        laboratory operation.◆ Key Features of IDS System Barcode Control:   All samples are managed by barcode, which                                     eliminates human error including taking a wrong          sample.    Eliminate hospital infection:  By automating sample preparation  processes, the risk of hospital infection can  be minimized.  Real-time Processing:  Single Tube Transport Method provides                                               maximum flexibility to route samples to each own        destination and accomplishes real-time processing.IDS Co.,Ltd .
