*It is outside the intended use of the PCx/QCM system to perform a test in linearity mode on a PCx
instrument and change the test result record to a patient result in QCM Data Management System.
Linearity test results outside the test strip assay range should only be used to set linearity
performance on the PCx instrument. The performance of the test strips has not been verified outside
the assay range listed on the test strip instructions for use.
