Syringe Detection & Confirmation
8.
Check the LCD display to ensure that the Pump has correctly
identified the syringe size and brand.
If the syringe brand displayed is not correct, use the UP or DOWN arrow keys to scroll
between brands of similar dimensions. This will only happen if the syringe selected has
dimensions /-3% of another commonly used brand.

Press YES/START key to confirm
10. If the pump was stopped and turned off before the last program
reached End Program the Resume prompt screen will appear (i.e.
if, during an infusion, the pump was turned off to change the
battery). Press NO to continue programming the new regime.
11.
Purge Option
NOTE
:
PURGE OPTION
– In order to eliminate/reduce slack (visible spaces at the syringe
collar & plunger loading points) and ensure a faster start up time (time to reach the programmed
infusion rate), the user can purge the system (once only) up to a volume limit configured under
Change Set Up (max 0.5 ml). To use this option after syringe confirmation:
a. Press FF key
b. Ensure the patient is NOT connected to the set & Press Yes to confirm.
d. Press and Hold the FF key until the slack is removed and/or purge is completed
e. Press STOP to return to programming screens when purge is completed.
PROGRAMMING MAY NOW TAKE TWO DIFFERENT PATHS DEPENDING ON WHETHER
THE PUMP HAS BEEN CONFIGURED WITH PROGRAM LOCK ON OR

12. Once the syringe brand & size are confirmed the pump calculates and displays the
deliverable volume in the syringe.
13. The programmer can use the arrow keys to adjust the Volume To Be Infused (VTBI) e.g.
to allow a residual volume for KVO if required). The Pump cannot deliver the full contents
of all syringe brands/sizes so in some cases there may be a slight residual volume left in
the pump when the actuator has traveled to the zero position. If this is the case the
deliverable volume displayed will reflect this. For example, if the visually confirmed
contents of the syringe are 18ml the Pump may display 17.5ml (of 18ml) as the deliverable
volume. In this example 0.5ml will be left in the syringe at End of Infusion.
