Programming AUTO SCHEDULE Mode
AUTO SCHEDULE mode is a timed infusion mode for use when a
programmed dose is to be repeated at regular intervals. The infusion is
programmed in terms of dose volume and dose duration, and the time from
the start of one dose to the start of the next. Each dose delivery is
automatically initiated.
AUTO SCHEDULE mode also adds a delay to the start of the first dose,
allowing a time delay before the infusion regimen begins.
