2.3.3.3.7 CLOCK Group
The CLOCK group, although not part of the configuration group, allows the operator to set
the real-time clock during the configuration process.
2.3.3.3.8 IDENT Group
The IDENT group, although not part of the configuration group, allows the identifier (short
message of up to eight characters) to be edited during the configuration process. During
that process, the operator is allowed to select an alphanumeric identifier (default identifier
is “AS50”) of up to eight characters to be displayed following the ‘off’ portion of the lamp
test.
2.3.4 Specific Features
2.3.4.1 Serial Communication Feature
The serial communication feature includes remote monitoring and control functions. A DB9
connector allows an RS-232(C) communication link between the pump and a host
computer. The feature will allow an operator at a remote computer to control pump
operations and to query the pump for infusion totals, program data and operational status.
The remote monitoring function is available whenever the pump is in operation.
The remote control function is available during normal operation if it is configured to
REMOTE CONTROL.
A REMOTE CONTROL option has been added to the MISC configuration group for this
purpose. When the REMOTE CONTROL feature is configured, the pump will display
“REMOTE CONTROL” as the first prompt immediately following the Power-On Self Test
(POST).
An ENABLE DB9 PORT option is added to the MISC configuration group. Choices will be
“Y” or “N”. A “Y” choice will enable the DB9 connector as the serial I/O port. “N” will
select the Mini-DIN connector.
