The MA900 uses 8 Peak Beads for monthly performance QC. When a new bead lot is available, the bead lot file download is updated to include new and previous lots.
The Performance QC menu displays all available bead lot numbers. If your bead lot is not present in the QC menu, you will need to follow this 4-step procedure to download and update your bead lot file.
Download the current bead lot file from the link at the top of this page.
Save the downloaded file to your desktop or convenient folder.
Unzip/extract the compressed zip file.
Start the MA900 Software and import the bead lot file from the QC menu and follow the software instructions.
