- 17 Feb 2006 Z-1448-06 Unclassified (pre-2012) Terminated Low QC recovery observed on carbamazepine (CARB) results immediately following a Gentamicin (GENT) assay or a Digoxin (DIG) assay. When GENT or DIG precedes CARB, the CARB test result is artificially low (as much as -25%). PHNY was determined to also exhibit a similar carryover effect on CARB. All others were found not to produce the same reagent probe-based carryover effect.

- 20 Jan 2006 Z-0682-06 Unclassified (pre-2012) Terminated When stored data is recalled from memory, the results do not agree with the original results. Software anomaly: a calculation error occurs when using the correlation adjustment feature on the RapidLab 1200 Systems with software versions 1.0, 1.01, or 1.02. The correlation feature applies user-defined slope and offset parameters each time stored test results are recalled to the display.
