Alarms
The mylife
™
YpsoPump
®
has a safety system that constantly monitors all functions.
If there is a deviation from the defined operating status, the insulin pump triggers a
warning or an alarm, depending on the situation.
Alarms given are primarily tactile and audible, and there are 4 escalation levels. The levels
escalate at intervals of 5 minutes. If an alarm is confirmed but not dealt with, it is given
again by audible and tactile means after 30 minutes. An electronic error is the exception.
That is indicated directly and permanently by audible and tactile means.
All the alarms which may occur on the mylife
™
YpsoPump
®
are described on the
following pages.
Alarms always lead to cancellation of insulin delivery.
Escalation levels alarms:
Level 1: Tactile
Level 2: Tactile and low audible signal
Level 3: Tactile and high audible signal
Level 4: Tactile and higher audible signal
