KVO rate entry
If this is enabled, then the user can set their own KVO rate. If it is
disabled, the default KVO rate (as shown in the specifications) is used.
Occlusion default setting
Use this option to set the occlusion default setting that should be
applied when the pump is switched on. Press * to change the default.
The user can press the Occlusion Alarm Setting key to change the
occlusion level for a particular infusion regardless of this default
parameter setting. However the default setting is reapplied when the
pump is switched off and on again.
Secondary stop
With this parameter enabled, the pump stops when a Secondary
infusion is completed. It sounds an insistent alarm and displays a
message to say that the secondary infusion is complete.
If Secondary stop is disabled, when a secondary infusion is complete,
the pump sounds a non-insistent alarm twice and then automatically
restarts the infusion at the primary rate.
This parameter is independent of the setting of the Bolus parameter
and only affects a Secondary infusion; at the end of a Bolus infusion
the pump always reverts to the previously programmed Primary rate.
Bolus
When this parameter is enabled, the user is given a choice of whether
a Secondary or a Bolus infusion is to be run when they press the
Secondary/Bolus key. If Bolus is chosen, the volume infused is
deducted from the Primary VTBI. If Secondary is chosen, the
Secondary volume infused is kept as a separate total and does not
affect the Primary VTBI.
If Bolus is disabled, the user is not given a choice when they press the
Secondary/Bolus key: they can only make settings for a Secondary
infusion.
Quick Rate Change
In software versions before 0.71, the Quick Rate Change parameter
was always enabled, and could not be disabled. From version 0.71, the
parameter may be enabled or disabled on the Technician Menu.
Enabling this feature allows users to use the Options key to put the
pump into a mode in which they can change the rate quickly while the
pump is running or on hold.
Rate Taper
Enabling this parameter allows the user to taper the infusion rate,
either up or down, for the administration of Total Parenteral Nutrition
(TPN), Total Parenteral Admixture (Three-in-One) or other applicable
therapies.
