When in “Program Entry Mode”, with the display showing the Program Phase number, pressing the
‘Volume’/’Program Function’ key will display the current “Program Function” for this Phase. If the current
function is ‘RATE’, then a pumping infusion or withdrawal can be setup for this Phase.
To change the “Program Function” selected, use the arrow keys to scroll through the functions until the required
function is displayed. If the function has an associated parameter, enter the parameter after the function has been
stored.
Momentarily pressing the ‘Volume’/’Program Function’ key again will exit “Program Entry Mode” and display the
“Volume to be Dispensed.” The pumping rate data, which includes the pumping rate, “Volume to be Dispensed”
and pumping direction, can now be setup as previously described.
When finished setting up the pumping rate data for the current Phase, enter “Program Entry Mode” again to select
the next Program Phase. Press and hold the ‘Rate’/’Program Phase #’ key until the Phase number is displayed.
Then use the arrow keys to set the Phase number to the next Phase to be setup. Pressing the right-most arrow once
will set the Phase to Phase 2. Now all pumping data will refer to Phase 2. The second Phase can now be setup as
described above for Phase 1.
Continue selecting Phase numbers and entering the infusion or control setup for each Phase of the Pumping
Program. The entire Pumping Program will be stored in non-volatile memory.
Use the ‘STOP’ function to stop the pump and end the Pumping Program. If the Pumping Program does not
operate the pump continuously, the last Phase of the Pumping Program must be a ‘STOP’ function (unless the last
Phase number is the maximum Phase number).
When the Pumping Program is started, with the ‘Start / Stop’ key, TTL I/O input, or RS-232 command, the
Pumping Program will begin operating from Phase 1.
Very complex dispensing Programs can be created with the Program functions available. Section 8.3 contains a
detailed description of all the functions.
8.1.1 Pumping Program Phase Number
To set the current Program Phase number, enter “Program Entry Mode” and display the current Program Phase
number.
Using the right-most 2 arrow keys, change the selected Program Phase number. The displayed Program Phase
number now becomes the currently selected Program Phase number. All function and pumping rate data will now
refer to the currently selected Program Phase number.
If the maximum Program Phase number, 41, is exceeded while changing the Phase number, the displayed Phase
number will automatically be set to the maximum Program Phase number.
8.2 Pumping Program Edit Functions
When developing or updating a large Pumping Program, occasionally one or more Program Phases needs to be
added or removed from the Pumping Program. Having to re-enter the entire Program could certainly be a tedious
task.
Two Program entry functions are available to simplify the Program development process. These are the ‘Insert’
and ‘Delete’ functions. They allow a Program Phase to be removed from any point in the Pumping Program or a
Phase to be inserted at any point.
To access these functions, enter “Program Entry Mode” to display the Program Phase number [PH:nn]. Select the
Program Phase number that is to be deleted or the Phase number where a new Phase is to be inserted in the
Pumping Program.
For example, if a Phase is to be inserted between Phases 24 and 25, select Phase 25. The inserted Phase will be at
Phase 25, and all the Phases starting with the old Phase 25 will be shifted one Phase higher.
Using either of the 2 left-most arrow keys, under ‘PH’ in the display, select the editing function. The arrow keys
will scroll through the selection of editing functions:
