epoc auto-selecting all tests

We just went live with the Siemens epoc in our hospital. Currently it is set to auto-select all tests when running a sample. We use RALS as our data manager. Has anyone discovered a way to get rid of the auto-selecting all default?

Hi Addison! It sounds like currently all of the parameters are both enabled and selected for your devices, and you only want them to be enabled but not selected. In RALS, go to Device Configurations. Then go to Test Type and uncheck the boxes in the “Selected” column.

You're welcome! The EPOC is a great device, but there are a lot of little details/tips/tricks to get it customized exactly the way you want it. Good luck!

In RALS, you can select/unselect the analytes from Device Configurations > Test Type.
A key point to note that if your device is interfaced with an EMR like Epic, you will also need to contact your epic team & RALS to create a new profile for the newly selected analytes. This is to ensure the results upload properly to the patient's chart.
