A device and a process are provided for putting into operation and for operating a measuring device. A temperature regulating unit (40) carries out the tempering of a sample (58) in a test strip (37) by a temperature regulating unit (40) and a heating/cooling unit (92). The sample (58) is fed to the test strip (37) by a developer fluid (57) and a metering unit (55). The result of the detection reaction becomes visible by a change in color (36), which is detected optically and analyzed. The data of a control chart (52) with the measured values of a first and second temperature sensors (41, 42) are used to set the control parameters for the tempering. In the process, the status of the device is polled and a code (86) on the test sample holder (35) is read in a sequence of steps. The control parameters for the phases of the measurement are determined from the measured values of first and second temperature sensors (41, 42), the values of the control chart (52) and the code (86) of the test sample holder (35), and subsequently used by the temperature regulating unit (53) in the course of the measurement.
