The data shall be stored as a text file (.txt). 2.1.4 The weight of the system shall be approximately 50 lbs which includes the backpack, laptop computer, micro-centrifuge, and sample cuvettes. The dimensions of the system shall be approximately 20 inches x 15 inches x 11 inches. 2.2 SAMPLE. 2.2.1 Shall have composite glass/plastic reaction vessel loaded by centrifugation with a volume size of 5-20 µl. 2.3 FLUORESCENCE ACQUISITION. 2.3.1 The system shall have three color optics modules with excitation wavelengths of 450 - 490 nm. The color emission wavelength detection channels shall be: Channel 1: 520-540 nm Channel 2: 630-650 nm Channel 3: 690-730 nm 2.3.2 Shall have a dwell time of 60-1000 millisec/sample. The sample rate shall have a maximum of 6 seconds for 32 samples. 2.3.3 The instrument shall have the following 3 modes: 1. Continuous 2. Once per Cycle 3. Single Step. 2.4 PROGRAMMING. 2.4.1 Shall have Windows based software with 2 operating modes: 1. Simplified: Push button operation with automatic results analysis for field use. 2. Advanced: Programming and data analysis for protocol testing and development. 2.4.2 The auto-run protocols shall be capable of storing 24 push-button protocols with automatic analysis. 2.4.3 The advanced protocols shall be capable of storing hundreds of protocol programs, with up to 100 cycle programs per protocol. Each Cycle program can contain up to 100 Target Temperatures. Target Temperatures consist of: temperature, time, slope, step functions, and acquisition mode. 2.5 TEMPERATURE CONTROL. 2.5.1 The temperature range shall be from room temperature to 120°C. The ramp rate shall be 0.1 - 2.0°C/sec. 2.5.2 The electrical requirements shall be 220-240 volts 50/60 Hz. 2.6 This system shall include a Laptop computer, Start-up Kit, Bubble Centrifuge and Adapters, Black Backpack, Basic Use Tools Kit, Composite Reaction Cuvettes, Cords, Cables and a Users Guide. 2.7 The Pathogen Identification Device shall be provided with the following consumables/kits or equivalent. •1.
