3. ALARMS, MESSAGES, AND INDICATIONS
Indications
CHEK (Figure 3-11)
Pump will sound a dual tone beep once and CHEK, RATE,
DOSE, and FEED INTERVAL will all blink on the display.
Why: This alarm sounds when the RATE, DOSE,
and FEED INTERVAL are not compatible. As
discussed in the Interval Feeding Example
(Page 13), pump divides the dose by the
rate to determine the amount of time
required for the dose to be delivered.
Based on the RATE and DOSE combination, when the FEED INTERVAL is
being programmed, the rst value available will be the rst value that is
compatible with the RATE and DOSE settings. Should the RATE or DOSE
be changed after the FEED INTERVAL has been programmed, and the
combination requires the delivery time to be longer than the amount of
time programmed as the FEED INTERVAL, user will receive this alarm.
For example, if rate is 100 ml/hr, and dose is 200
ml, then the pump will take 2 hours to deliver the
dose. The rst available FEED INTERVAL will be 2.00
hr. However, if the dose is changed to 300 ml, the
dose will now take 3 hours to deliver and therefore
2.00 hr is an impossible FEED INTERVAL. If the RUN/
PAUSE key is pressed before the FEED INTERVAL
has been changed (the next available value
being 3.00), the pump will give the CHEK alarm.
To correct the problem: Press the RUN/
PAUSE key to put pump in pause mode,
and reprogram the settings.
TO STOP LET GO (Figure 3-12)
When pressing and holding the PRIME key during
manual prime, alarm will sound once, pump will
begin pumping at an approximate rate of 700 ml/
hr and display will read “TO STOP LET GO”
To stop priming: Release the PRIME key.
