Non-insistent alarm
This type of alarm indicates that there is a condition requiring
attention which has not caused the infusion to stop. For example, if
the pump is running on batteries and the batteries are low, or if the
infusion has switched to a KVO rate.
The non-insistent audio alarm consists of two tones, one high pitched
and one low pitched, repeated at two second intervals. (High/low
chime.)
In KVO, the green run light flashes at 1 Hz with 50% duty cycle. In
low battery, the yellow battery light flashes at 1 Hz with 50% duty
cycle.
To silence this type of alarm, press the Silence or Run key to silence
the alarm without stopping fluid delivery, or press the Hold key to
silence the alarm and stop fluid delivery.
Detection of the following alert conditions cause the microprocessor
to sound the non-insistent audio alarm:
• Dose setup not completed
• Dose change not completed
• Dose change not accepted
• KVO
xxx mL this infusion
• Low battery. Plug in cord
• Rate change not completed
• Secondary was set.
Continuous - backup alarm
In addition to the insistent and non-insistent operational alarms, the
Volumetric pump has a fail-safe backup alarm system. This has a
distinctive high-pitched tone:
• Should the audio alarm system fail, then the pump sounds the
backup alarm, with a 1.5 second pause between alarm tones;
• Should an electromechanical system failure occur, the pump
sounds the backup alarm continuously.
The pump displays one of these messages when sounding the backup
alarm:
• Pump needs service
• System check. Turn off then on.
