Abstract
An automatic analyzer achieves both restraining unnecessary usage of a consumable supply and reducing burdens on an operator in a re-execution processing in a case where pipe functions are suspended/stopped, and is capable of completely efficiently performing an analysis preparation processing or an analysis terminating processing. In the automatic analyzer, a storage unit stores information on pipe functions, and information on re-execution setting for setting a re-execution maintenance item from which re-execution is started with respect to a suspended maintenance item if pipe functions of a plurality of maintenance items are suspended halfway, and a computer sequentially executes the plurality of maintenance items, based on the information on pipe functions, and re-executes maintenance from the re-execution maintenance item associated with a suspended maintenance item, based on the suspended maintenance item and the information on re-execution setting, if the pipe functions of the plurality of maintenance items are suspended halfway.
