I you are going to choose to override the prompts, you had best revert
back to a schedule of changing solutions on a rotating schedule.  
You probably had something like that in place with your previous
processor.  I would call Leica to have them send out someone to help get
your processing optimized, and train your staff on how to set the
parameters for your solutions.  They are very interested in keeping
their customers happy.

To all you Peloris users, here is my delimma.  When we follow the
machines prompt to change the solutions because of purity and we then
process small biopsies on the machine, it overprocesses the specimens.
So the staff have been overrriding the prompt to change the solutions
causing specimens to be processed in impure solutions causing a host of
other problems. Have any of you out there with Peloris experience had
this problem? Is it a machine problem that should be fixed or human
error due to overriding the prompts?  I am new to this position and have
very little experience with this issue so any help or suggestions will
be greatly appreiciated. Thank you.
