•Open the accessory box and use this list to make sure you received all
components of the Vet-Scan HM5 system.
• VetScan HM5 Analyzer.
• VetScan HM5 Operator’s Manual.
• External power supply.
•Mini-keyboard
• Four sample tube adaptors.
• Reagent Tubing Kit.
Selecting a Location
The analyzer must be installed in a suitable location.
• The location should be flat, level, sturdy, vibration-free, and as dust-free as possible.
• Leave at least 50 cm of clearance on all sides of the instrument to allow for
adequate airflow and access to connectors.
• Maintain a minimum of 20 cm behind the analyzer’s rear panel for heat dissipation
and tube clearance.
• Leave enough space for the reagent pack.
Connecting the Reagent Pack
• Place the reagent pack near the analyzer, either beside
or behind the instrument.
• For best results, place the reagent pack at the same level as
the analyzer. If you have to place the reagent pack on a lower
level, make sure that it is no more than 45 cm below the
level of the analyzer’s reagent inlets, as measured from the
bottom of the reagent pack to the bottom of the analyzer.
Note: Do not place the reagent pack on a higher level.
Closer to Care.
Connect the reagent pack as follows.
• Open the plastic bag located in the accessory box, and take out the six
color-coded reagent tubes and caps with drop-down tubes.
• Attach the supplied connector
tubing kit to the instrument,
as shown.
• Open the reagent pack box. Open each reagent container (lyse, lyse 2, rinse, cleaner,
and diluent) by unscrewing the container caps and piercing the bottle top seals.
• Re-cap each container using the bottle cap with the appropriate color-coded connec-
tor and drop-down tube.
•Flip diluent canister 180 degrees prevent reagent errors by ensuring that tubes are
not kinked when the box lid is closed.
•Connect each color tube to its matching color outlet. The connectors should
snap into each other when properly connected.
• Connect waste bottle.
Initialization of the HM5
• Connect Power Supply.
• Install paper into the built in printer.
• Turn on the analyzer by using the power switch on the upper le of its rear panel.
•The analyzer then displays several screens while it runs its soware start-up procedure.
•Touch Measure, then touch Run.
•When prompted, touch OK to run a blank. ( Also see “Running a blank”).
•The analyzer then initializes its pneumatic system and runs a blank measurement.

• Touch the Measure icon.
• Enter the Patient ID on the “New Sample Screen”.

•Mix the sample well by slowly inverting the tube 10-15 times. Insert the
well-mixed EDTA preserved whole blood sample into the appropriate tube
adapter, on the sample rotor, and remove the cap.
• Touch the Run button.
If your HM5 is set for autoprint, your results will be
printed automatically.
If not, press the Print button to print results
Test Results (and blank cycles) are automatically saved
to the HM5 database.
They can be viewed by pressing the database function key
Running a Sample
Analysis is complete in less than four minutes. All results and histograms
are automatically saved in the analyzer’s database.
• When analysis is complete, the analyzer displays all measured and
calculated parameters, as well as the WBC, EOS, RBC, and PLT
histograms:
If the analyzer is not set to print results automatically, press Print to
print the results.
Results falling outside of the specified species reference range are
marked as follows:
• Results above the reference range are flagged and marked with a
plus sign (+).
• Results below the reference range are flagged and marked with a
minus sign (–).
• Warning and error flags are marked with upper- and lower-case letters
at the bottom.
Interpreting Results
Closer to Care.
Running a Blank
A blank must be run every 12 hours. Each blank measurement remains
valid for 12 hours of continuous operation, aer which the analyzer displays
BLANK needed and a new blank is required. In addition, a new blank must
be run each time the analyzer has been powered on and off again.
• If the analyzer is in standby mode, touch the measure icon.
• Touch the Run button.
• If a blank is necessary, the “Blank needed” screen appears.
• Touch OK to confirm and run the blank.
• Check the results to see whether the blank falls within the acceptable
ranges shown in the following table. If so, press Accept.
Acceptable blanks will have
the following readouts:
WBC 0.0-0.5
RBC 0.0-0.05
PLT 0-26
HGB 0-10

Running Controls
Controls are run to assess if the analyzer is maintaining calibration.
• Touch the Maintenance icon.
• Touch the Quality control button.
• Touch the QC level (e.g. QC Normal) that will
be used.
• Touch References to load the assay and gap values
• Enter QC values (choose one of three methods):
a. Enter manually - values can be entered by
hand by touching the appropriate fields.
b. Enter by USB pen drive - the QC values file
can be loaded by inserting the USB drive into
a USB port and touching Load.
c. Enter by Barcode reader - press Load
Datamatrix on the Quality Control screen.
Scan the 2D barcode on the QC package insert.
• View table of QC databases.
• View QC diagram (for a Levy-Jennings graphic
representation of the QC history).
• If the QC results were within range, proceed
to running samples. If the QC was out of
range, repeat QC run. If the QC is repeatedly
out of range, proceed to calibration.
(see Calibrating the Analyzer).
