The invention is a method to assist in automatically identifying whether a particular fluid collection cassette (10) such as a posterior surgical fluid collection cassette or an anterior surgical fluid collection cassette. A fluid collection cassette (10) has a material (40, 44) disposed on, within, or inside said fluid collection cassette in at least one predetermined location (38, 42). When the fluid collection cassette (10) is inserted into a housing (56), a sensor (58, 60) attached to the housing (56) senses the existence, or non-existence of the material (40, 44) and sends a signal conveying the information to a main controller. As a result, the type of fluid collection cassette may be determined.

La présente invention concerne un procédé d'assistance à l'identification automatique d'une cassette particulière de prélèvement de liquide (10) telle une cassette de liquide chirurgical postérieur ou d'une cassette de liquide chirurgical antérieur. Une cassette de prélèvement (10) présente un matériau (40), (44) disposé sur, au sein de, ou dans ladite cassette de prélèvement en au moins un emplacement déterminé (38), (42). Lorsque la cassette de prélèvement (10) de liquide est introduite dans le boîtier (56), un capteur (58), (60) fixé au boîtier (56) détecte la présence ou non du matériau (40), (44) et émet un signal communicant cette information au contrôleur principal, permettant ainsi de déterminer le type de cassette de prélèvement.
