ALARMS
Display message Pre-alarm reason
“VTBI near end“ The preselected volume is nearly infused.
“Time near end“ The preselected time is almost over.
“Battery nearly empty“ The battery is almost discharged.
“KVO mode“ VTBI/time are reached and the pump continues
the infusion at the KVO-rate.
A stopwatch on the display counts down the remaining time (depending on the
service program, between 3-30 min). After that, the pump changes to the
operating alarm.
The pre-alarms “VTBI near end“ (volume preselection) and “Time near end“ (time
preselection) can be deactivated via the service program.
Operating alarms:
Operating alarms lead to an interruption of the infusion. An audible tone
sounds, the red LED flashes and a staff call is activated.
The display states "Alarm", the reason for the operating alarm and gives the
option to either confirm the alarm by pressing
k or mute the alarm by
pressing
C. If the alarm is muted, the alarm message will remain on the
screen until it is confirmed by pressing
k. After 2 minutes, if the alarm has
not been confirmed by pressing
k, the audible tone will sound again. The
alarm tone, the alarm message, and the staff call (optional) are all cleared by
pressing
k. Corrections are to be made according to the alarm reason.
