Transferring Libraries from Pump to Pump
Libraries and their stored presets can be copied electronically from one pump to another through the serial
communications interface. The process is called “Library Cloning” and involves one pump “Teaching” and the other
pump “Learning”.
To learn how to do this, refer to the
Medfusion 3500
Syringe Infusion Pump Configuration Manual.
If you have authorization, you may use custom configuration to clone libraries. If not, ask the person responsible for
custom configuration to make library changes for you.
Reusing
Templates
If you save to an existing template, you
write over
its contents, and the new template
replaces the old. If you reuse a template, be sure to change its name to avoid
confusion.
PharmGuard: Dosage Protocol Protection
1.
PharmGuard provides programmable upper and lower limits for library dose/rate parameters.
2.
When attempting to enter or change a dose/rate of a library selection the PharmGuard limits will be
displayed on the screen between the “MAX:” and “MIN:” values as “HIGH” and “LOW”.
3.
If a value is entered that is outside the PharmGuard range an audible alarm will sound and the message
“OUTSIDE RANGE LIMIT – SILENCE ALARM TO CONTINUE” will appear.
4.
Once the alarm is silenced, the message “CONFIRM LIMIT OVERRIDE?” will appear.
5.
If this message is answered in the affirmative, the rate will be accepted. If the message is answered in the
negative, the rate entry screen will re-appear.
