not in use.
2.1 Introduction
This chapter describes the initial setup and
configuration of the instrument. Included in this
chapter is a reproducible form (Record of
Configured Instruments, Table 2-3) available for
recording and tracking configurations for
instruments located in different areas. For your
reference, a fold-out map of all the configuration
screens is provided at the end of this chapter.
2.2 New Instrument Checkout
Refer to the instrument's Directions For Use (DFU)
manual for instructions regarding unpacking and
setting up the instrument for the first time.
When turning on the instrument, verify that the
instrument beeps and that all display LED
segments flash. This confirms that the pump has
performed its self test, and is operating correctly.
During operation, the pump continually performs
a self test, and will alarm and display a message if
it detects an internal malfunction.
Service is required if the pump fails to satisfactorily
pass the start-up sequence. Refer the instrument
to qualified service personnel if the instrument
shows physical damage, is out of calibration, fails
to complete the self test, or continues to alarm.
Information about instrument alarms is found in
Chapter 6 of this manual and in the Directions For
Use.
For new instrument checkout, the minimum
checks are:
• Functional Test (Chapter 3)
• Ground Current Leakage Test (Chapter 3)
• Flow Stop Test (Chapter 3)
• Instrument Configuration (Chapter 2)
• Rate Verification (Chapter 3)
• Pressure Verification (Chapter 3)
• Set Sensor Check (Chapter 3)
