Screen is blank and alarm is sounding
Alarm Priority High. The pump was delivering and
the batteries were removed or the battery door was
opened. The pump has lost power and is no longer
delivering. Clear the alarm by turning the pump back
on, or the alarm will stop after the power has been off
for a minimum of two minutes.
Air-in-line detected. Press “acknowledge” then
prime tubing
Alarm Priority High. The air detector has detected air
in the fluid path. The pump was delivering and is now
stopped and will not run. Select Acknowledge to clear
the alarm. If the fluid path contains air bubbles, close the
clamps, disconnect the fluid path from the patient, then
prime the tubing to remove the air and restart the pump.
Battery depleted. Pump stopped.
Alarm Priority High. If the AC adapter is attached,
select Acknowledge to clear the alarm. Remove
the batteries and install four new AA batteries or a
rechargeable battery pack. To start delivery, good
batteries must always be installed even when an
external source of power is connected. If appropriate,
restart the pump.
Battery low. Replace battery.
Alarm Priority Low. Select Acknowledge to clear the
alarm, or it will automatically clear after five seconds.
Recharge or change the rechargeable battery pack or
replace the four AA batteries soon.
Downstream occlusion. Clear occlusion between
pump and patient.
Alarm Priority High. The pump has detected high
pressure, which may be resulting from a downstream
blockage, kink in the fluid path, or a closed tubing clamp.
Delivery pauses and resumes if the occlusion is removed.
Remove the obstruction or select Stop Pump to silence
the alarm for two minutes, then remove the obstruction
and restart the pump.
Reservoir volume low
Alarm Priority Medium or Low. The priority depends on
how the alarm is programmed in Admin Settings. The
level of fluid in the reservoir is low. Select Acknowledge
to clear the alarm and prepare to install a new reservoir,
if appropriate.
