PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a device for shortening a time from requesting analysis to throwing a specimen into an automatic analyzer in the automatic analyzer and an automatic analysis system to which analysis is requested from an external computer, and for performing efficient operation by checking the required quantity of consumable supply such as reagents before operation start and reporting lack of the residual quantity to an operator.SOLUTION: After an analysis request is inputted to an external computer, analysis request information is immediately transmitted to an automatic analyzer. At a side of the automatic analyzer, the required quantity of consumable supply such as reagents is computed from the received analysis request information. When the consumable supply being held in the device is lacked, the lack of the residual quantity is displayed on a screen, thereby calling replenishment of the consumable supply to an operator. Operation is started simultaneously with the reception of the analysis request information, and a specimen on which preprocessing such as centrifugal separation has been implemented can be thrown in just after arriving at the automatic analyzer, thereby contributing to improvement of automatic analyzer and automatic analysis system operation efficiency. |
