15. To begin fi lling the syringe, press DONE.
An audible sound will notify you that the system is fi lling. The
Syringe Filling screen is displayed.
16. Press OK.
The Load Saline screen appears. You can read the instructions
on the screen and continue with the set-up process while the
syringe is
fi lling. After the syringe is fi lled with at least 25ml of
contrast, the Back and Done buttons are added to the screen.
Important:
If the syringe does not fi ll, the screen will say
“Purging” and the ram will move a small distance
forward and back as the system checks to see if
contrast is detected. This occurs when the contrast
sensor does not detect the contrast. Make sure the
contrast sensor is around the spike tubing and that
the tubing is and sensor are clean.
Note:
When using the Syringe Kit on the CL100H, check to
see that the luer connection between the saline tubing
and the manifold is tight.
17. If you are using the Acist disposable pressure transducer
cartridge, connect it to the transducer sensor backplate.

14. Place the spike tubing in the contrast sensor.
Important:
Note position of the contrast sensor. If you do not place
the contrast sensor around the spike tubing and close
the latch securely, this will interfere with the ability of the
sensor to detect the presence of contrast.
Note:
The vent cap on the spike should be open at all times. Also,
the white contrast spike clamp should be open whenever
the syringe is in use. This will not be prompted by a screen,
but it is very important to remember to do so. A closed spike
tuing will prevent proper syringe function.
