Programming with Interoperability—Initial Primary Infusion (Continued)
For the Pump module, proceed to step 6.
4. For the Syringe module, select the syringe type and size;
otherwise proceed to step 5. If the installed syringe is
loaded correctly, but not recognized, check the following:
a. If a label is between the syringe barrel and the barrel
clamp, make sure that the label does not erroneously
enlarge the barrel size of the syringe.
b. If a needle-free valve or other component is added to
the syringe, ensure that it is no larger than the diameter
of the syringe barrel.
NOTE:
• Thick labeling or adding a component to the syringe that is
larger than the diameter of the syringe may prevent the
device from correctly recognizing the installed syringe. If the
issue continues despite the above troubleshooting, send
the device to your facility's biomedical engineering
department for servicing.
• The capability of the Syringe module to recognize a new
syringe and read the volume is unchanged from manual
programming.
c. Press the soft key next to the installed syringe type and
size. If a default syringe list has been enabled and the
correct syringe cannot be found, press the
soft key to select from a list of all
SYRINGES
compatible syringes.

WARNING
Ensure that the displayed syringe
manufacturer and syringe size
correctly identify the installed
syringe. Mismatches might
cause an under-infusion or
over-infusion to the patient that
could result in serious injury and/or
death. For a list of compatible
syringes, refer to Compatible
Syringes (Syringe Module) on page
2-136 and the Alaris
Module Set Compatibility Card. If the
installed syringe is displayed and
selected but is not recognized,
servicing is required. (see
"Maintenance", "Service Information"
in the "Appendix" section on this
User Manual.
WARNING
Selecting an incorrect syringe may cause
an under or over infusion to the patient.
