Reason for the Action QuidelOrtho received a customer complaint detailing that their automation track system aspirated samples before their VITROS System had transitioned from the status of “Not Ready, Equilibrating Environment” to “Ready”. The VITROS System status of “Not Ready, Equilibrating Environment” was due to the Slide Supply 1 relative humidity not meeting the on-board storage requirements.

A software anomaly results in miscommunication between the VITROS System software and the automation track software. This problem impacts all available versions of the VITROS System software with the potential to lead to erroneous results.

This problem will be resolved in a future software update.
Instructions for Customers/Users Customers are to resolve TA7-XXX Condition Codes related to Slide Supply relative humidity as soon as possible.

QuidelOrtho will resolve this problem in a future software update.
