Racks
Racks are identified by a rack barcode label. The barcode label identifies
the type of sample (serum, urine, other-1, other-2 or whole blood)
designated for that rack. Sample racks are configured in the AU
software.
Racks are available in multiple colors to assist the operator in determining
rack function. Rack function is identified by the system by the placement
of magnets on the bottom of the rack.
