Introduction

IDEXX's SNAPshot* DSR Reader provides an easy-to-use method of reading and
recording SNAP* test results. Using a touch-screen interface, the SNAPshot DSR
Reader offers easy data entry and navigation. Its leading-edge imaging technology
provides quick, accurate test results. Just insert the "snapped" device and read the
test results.
The SNAPshot DSR Reader offers two test modes:
Full Read—Lets you record the test lot ID, tech ID and sample ID. Provides
on-screen and printed test results. The Full Read mode is required for National
Conference on Interstate Milk Shipments (NCIMS) testing.
Quick Read—Provides on-screen and printed test results. In the United States,
the Quick Read mode does not meet NCIMS testing guidelines.
IMPORTANT: A printer is required for NCIMS testing. The SNAPshot DSR Reader
printer is available separately from IDEXX. Call 1-800-321-0207 for additional
information or technical services.
