7. Troubleshooting
On detection of a fault condition, the Flowtron ACS 800 pump provides a visual-
only warning followed by an audible and visual alarm if the fault is not cleared.
Warning Conditions
The visual-only warning is a fault message on the LCD screen. The LED indications
remain unchanged and there is no audible alarm.
The warning can be cleared by either:
• Checking and rectifying the fault on the system, or
• Pressing the button below “Stop” to put the pump into Standby.
Alarm Conditions
If the fault is not cleared then the warning is replaced by an audible and visual alarm,
which consists of:
• A fault message on the LCD screen.
• The LED indicators on the front of the pump change to red and start flashing.
• An audible alarm will sound which increases in pitch and intensity if the alarm is
ignored.
The alarm can be cleared by either:
• Checking and rectifying the fault on the system, or
• Pressing the button below “Stop” to put the pump into Standby.

For simplicity, the following screens (except Battery Low, Hardware Fail and
Pump Too Hot) show a fault detected on garment 1; similar fault messages are
displayed if the fault is detected on garment 2 (or both garments).

If the trouble shooting procedures do not return the system to normal
performance, stop using the system immediately and call the service engineer.
