8.2 Displayed warnings
The 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. You will find a description
of the alarms on page 160. Displayed warnings are not saved in the alarm history.
All the displayed warnings are described on the following pages. The warnings are arranged in order of priority. This means:
The “Cartridge level low” warning always appears with priority over all the warnings below if multiple events
occur at the same time.
The “Battery charge level low” warning always has priority over all the warnings below it, except if the
“Cartridge level low” warning occurs at the same time.
Unconfirmed alarms always appear with priority over warnings.
Displayed warnings are primarily tactile and audible and there are 4 escalation levels. The levels escalate at intervals of
30 minutes. The warnings appear on the status screen and have to be confirmed. For this purpose the screen can
be switched on with the function button. The warnings do not cause any cancelation in insulin delivery. When all the
warnings have been confirmed, the original status screen reappears.
Escalation levels warnings:
Level 1: Tactile
Level 2: Tactile and low audible signal
Level 3: Tactile and high audible signal
Level 4: Tactile and higher audible signal
