Enter a Linear function pumping program as a 3 Phase Pumping Program:

Phase 1:

Linear starting rate function, and hours:minutes portion of pumping time.

Phase 2:

Linear ending rate function, and seconds:tenths portion of pumping time.

Phase 3:

Stop function

Note: The secondary pump is set to the default communications settings of Address 0 and 19,200 baud rate.

Operation

When the Master pump is started, the syringe diameter and pumping program will be transmitted to the Second
pump. The Second pump will be programmed with the inverse linear function of the Master pump. The Second
pump will start pumping when the Master pump starts pumping. With the starting and ending pumping rates
reversed on the secondary pump, the sum of the flow rates of the two pumps will be virtually constant.

Note: The linear function updates the pumping rate every 100 ms, resulting in a synchronization error of up to
100 ms between the two pumps. This will cause a slight difference in the total volumes dispensed between the
two pumps.

Default Gradient Pumping Program

To load the default program: On the Master pump, while turning on power, press and hold the
“Volume”/”Program Function” key until [Cont] is displayed, then use any up arrow key until [GrAd] is displayed.
Press the “Volume” key again to enter the selection.
