About alarms (Beep/Vibrate
settings)
e pump can be set to Beep or Vibrate when an alert
or alarm occurs (see page 46). With Beep selected, you
can also choose whether the pump beeps when you press
a key. When Vibrate is selected, the pump will not beep
(or vibrate) when keys are pressed. (NOTE: the battery is
used much more quickly when Vibrate is programmed.)
ere are several types of alarm tones/vibration patterns:
• Siren alarm: Indicates pump is not working correctly
and must be removed from use.
Beep: 2 alternating beeps repeated constantly. Remove
pump from use.
Vibrate: Disabled.
• Continuous alarm: Indicates a problem which may
have caused medication delivery to be stopped. See to
alarms immediately.
Beep: 4 double-beeps, repeating every 10 seconds
until you press the appropriate key to silence it.
Vibrate: 4 double-vibrations, repeated every 10 sec-
onds until you press the appropriate key to silence it.
• Attention alarm: Indicates a problem that you need
to see to, however it is not serious enough to have
stopped delivery. Examples include low cartridge
volume, low battery, etc.
Beep: 4 double-beeps, repeated once per minute.
Vibrate: 4 double-vibrations, repeated once per
minute.
• Single alarm: is is a notication alert.
Beep: pump beeps once.
Vibrate: pump vibrates once.
• Stopped alarm: Indicates the pump is stopped.

You can set the volume of the Beep alarm to Low, Medium,

not cleared within 5 minutes, the pump will switch between
vibrating and beeping at the high setting in order to get
your attention.

alert occurs.
