Configurable Settings
With the Profiles feature enabled, the settings are configured independently for each profile. A hospital-defined, best-practice
data set must be uploaded to enable the Profiles feature.
If the Profiles feature is not enabled (off) or if no data set is loaded, the configurations options are set in the configuration mode
by qualified service personnel. If the configuration settings need to be changed from the factory default settings, reference the
Technical Service Manual or contact CareFusion Technical Support for technical, troubleshooting, and preventive maintenance
information.
Feature
Description
Air in Line
Threshold
(microliters)
Sets upper limit for a single bolus of air to pass without alarm. In other words, it is amount of air allowed to pass
through air-in-line detector before an air-in-line alarm sounds. One of 4 different air-in-line detection settings can
be selected: 50, 100, 200, 500 µl.
AIL Accumulator
Detects presence of multiple air bubbles that are too small to be detected by single bolus AIL detection limit.
Accumulator feature, when enabled, looks for 10-15% of downstream fluid path to be air before giving an
ACCUMULATED AIR IN LINE alarm. Volume of air that trips accumulated air detection alarm varies based on current
setting for single air bolus.
AIL Reset
Allows clinician to respond to an air-in-line alarm, assess its clinical significance, and choose whether or not to
continue infusion without removing air. Reset feature allows only current bubble to proceed without tripping
alarm.
Transition Tone
(Secondary to
Primary)
Provides an audible tone when secondary VTBI reaches zero, to indicate infusion has transitioned to primary rate.
Audio Volume
Provides clinician with ability to adjust audio volume for alarms, alerts and KVO tone to either High, Medium, or
Low if all audio volume levels are enabled. Audio volume indicator in lower LCD display indicates audio volume
selected. Pump can be configured to enable only Medium and High, or only High audio volume levels if desired.
Configuration
Name
Allows a 4-digit pump ID label to appear in lower LCD display, identifying patient care profile.
Auto Restart Plus
Part of the Dynamic Monitoring system and designed to help minimize nuisance “occlusion downstream” alarms. It
allows pump to automatically continue an infusion following detection of a downstream occlusion if downstream
pressure falls to an acceptable level within a 40-second Checking Line period. May be set to off (0 restarts) or to
allow from 1 – 9 Checking Line restarts. If allowable number of restarts is exceeded, or when resistance or pressure
conditions indicate an occlusion, an occlusion downstream alarm occurs.
Monitoring
Options
Dynamic monitoring provides clinician ability to select one of following monitoring modes: Resistance mode, High
Resistance mode or Pressure mode. All of these modes offer an optional Auto-Restart Plus feature and optional
trend graph display.
Trends
Provides ability to display downstream pressure or flow resistance over time. Trend graphs of 15 minutes, 1 hour, 4
hours and 12 hours are available during normal operation. When Trends is enabled, if pump is operating in pressure
mode, a pressure trend graph is available, and when it is operating in resistance mode, a resistance trend graph is
available.
Manual Pressure
Baseline
Provides a real-time bar graph and numeric display of line pressure.
Pressure Alarm
When Pressure Display is enabled, Pressure Alarm may be set to Adjustable Pressure mode or Fixed Pressure mode.
Pressure Display
In Adjustable Pressure monitoring mode, pressure alarm limit may be varied by from 25 mmHg to maximum
configured pressure limit in 25 mmHg increments. Pressure Display indicates current pressure limit and provides
ability to adjust limit by pressing “increase” or “decrease” arrows.
In Fixed Pressure mode, pressure limit of 600 mmHg displays, with no means of adjusting it. When Pressure Display
is disabled, pump automatically defaults to Fixed Pressure mode.
Pressure Limit,
Initial
This is default pressure alarm limit that is automatically set when pump is powered on and a new profile is selected
or New Patient? - Yes is selected. Alarm level must be less than or equal to maximum pressure limit.
Pressure Limit,
Maximum
In Adjustable Pressure monitoring mode, pressure alarm limit may be varied by from 25 mmHg to this maximum
configured pressure limit in 25 mmHg increments. A value that exceeds this pressure limit cannot be selected.
Default
Resistance Alert
Default resistance alert level that is automatically set when pump is powered on and a new profile is selected or
New Patient? - Yes is selected. Resistance Alert Marker can be adjusted up or down from this default setting, as
needed.
Resistance Alert
Provides an early warning of increasing flow resistance. When enabled, Resistance Alert marker can be set by from
0% to 100% of scale in 5% increments (Resistance Display must also be enabled). To optimise alert feature, it is
advisable to set alert level 20-30% higher than initial displayed resistance, which should be read approximately 2
minutes after starting an infusion.
Resistance
Display
When enabled provides a bar graph on Main Display to indicate current % resistance on a scale of 0 – 100%. When
disabled, resistance alert feature is unavailable.
