10 Glossary

10.1 Proxy server It is the equipment or software that exists between the internal network of a hospital or

inspection center and the Internet, which allows for connection to the Internet as a “proxy”

on behalf of computers in the internal network that do not have direct Internet connectivity.

This equipment or software is used to centralize management of access to and from the

internal network; limit connections from the internal network to specific places, and

prevent unauthorized access from outside.

The proxy must be set up to allow the PROService to be connected to our server

(PROService server) via the HTTP protocol for web browsing.

The proxy server often refers to an HTTP proxy relay. Some HTTP proxies have cache

systems to retain files recently read in order to reduce the load on connections to the

outside.


10-2

10.2 Type of LAN cables 10.2.1 Straight-through and crossover cables Straight-through and crossover cables are used for LAN connection. The difference

cannot be identified by appearance.

■ Straight-through cable

Signal wires inside the cable are wired straight-through and signal lines in both

end connectors are arranged the same. It is generally used to connect personal

computer to router or hub.

■ Crossover cable

Signal wires inside the cable are wired across and signal lines in both end

connectors are arranged differently. It is generally used for connection between

router and hub or hub and hub.


Please use straight-through cable for connection between DPR and router.



10-3

10.2.2 Solid wire and stranded wire “Solid wire” and “stranded wire” are available for signal lines inside the LAN cable. They

differ in structure of cable as shown below. Both can be used for LAN installation if they

support Category 5. However, note that difference in structure may cause failure

depending on communication speed.


It is recommended that you use solid wire type cable if distance between the router and LAN is

over 15 meters and stranded wire type cable if the distance is less than 15 meters for

PROService.

10.2.3 STP and UTP Twisted pair cable for 10 Base-T is susceptible to electromagnetic noise. There are two

types of cables: STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) that shields cable for reducing noise

interference and UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) cable that has no shield.


It is recommended to use STP cable for PROService.


10-4

10.2.4 Category UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) cable is ratified as EIA (Electronic Industries Alliance)

standard, TIA/EIA-568-A.. Cables are classified from Category 1 to Category 5 depending

on quality and they may be referred to CAT 1 to CAT 5. LAN installation uses cables with

Category 3 or higher and high-speed LAN such as 100 Base-TX requires Category 5

cable.

Category (Level) Applicable Scope Upper Limit of Transmission Speed

■ 2. Measurement Temperature of GA unit • Standard

36.9～37.5℃ (rounded to one decimal place) • Precaution / All covers including the back panel should be mounted on the instrument while the following

measurement procedure is performed. / Leave the instrument ON at least one hour so that the internal temperature would be stabilized. • Necessary tool / Thermometer with thermistor

(it should be calibrated, and needs capability to measure 1/100℃ with accuracy) • Measurement Procedure 1) In case the cuvette wheel had been removed before measurement, wait for at least one hour

after the wheel has been back. In case the wheel cover had been removed before measurement, wait for at least fifteen minutes

after the wheel cover has been back.

2) Confirm “Bath Temp.” displayed in the System Status Screen is in range of 36.8～37.2℃. 3) Initialize the cuvette wheel by moving the instrument into STOP mode once and then back to

STANDBY mode. 4) Dispense 500µl DI water into the cuvette located at the sample dispensing hole position on the

wheel cover. 5) Insert the thermistor into the cuvette dispensed DI water. The thermistor should be located at

about 1mm higher from the bottom of the cuvette. Fix the thermistor position by putting a tape as needed.

6) Close the top cover. Thermometer main unit should be left outside the cover so that the

displayed temperature can be read. 7) Leave it around five minutes and confirm the displayed temperature is stabilized.

Then, read temperature. The top cover should be remained closed. 8) In case temperature is out of specified standard range, adjust room temperature slightly and try

measurement again. (room temperature should be 24～26℃)
