message is displayed, but the Pump does NOT stop. The operator can mute the audible
alert by depressing the ACKNOWLEDGE keypad, which silences the audio advisory, but
will not remove the visual message.
The exception to audio alarm silencing is the
BATTERY BELOW MINIMUM
alert while
running on battery. This alert cannot be silenced until the Console is plugged into AC
power. The
BATTERY BELOW MINIMUM
alert will not stop the Pump until the battery is
fully discharged at which point the Console will power off. If this alert occurs, the user must
immediately plug the System into AC power, or change to a backup System.
If an alert condition persists for more than 60 seconds after the alert has been
acknowledged, the audio advisory reactivates and continues until acknowledgement
except for
BATTERY MAINTENANCE REQUIRED
(only requires acknowledgment once)
and
ON BATTERY
/
LOW BATTERY
(audio reactivates every 15 / 10 minutes or until
reconnected to AC power). The recommended action by the operator during an Alert
Condition is to take action to resolve the specific fault condition.
The visual display of the alert condition will be automatically removed provided: a) the
condition was acknowledged by depressing the Alarm Acknowledge button, and b) the
condition was resolved. If the visual indication of the alert condition remains, the user
either failed to acknowledge the condition by depressing the Alarm Acknowledge button,
the alert condition has resolved and reoccurred, or the condition has not been successfully
resolved.
Note: Should the alert condition be successfully resolved but the visual indication persists,
the user may clear the visual display by depressing the Alarm Acknowledge button.
Persistence of the visual display after depressing the Alarm Acknowledge button indicates
the alert condition has not been resolved or has reoccurred. If the alert condition cannot
be resolved the user should refer to
to determine the appropriate
operator response for the specific alert which has occurred.
8.3.3 Response to System Alarms or Alerts
When a System alarm or alert condition exists, an alarm tone sounds and a text message
appears on the display of the Console. Most alarms and alerts require some action on the
user’s part to correct the cause. The following table can be used to determine how to
correct an alarm or alert condition.
