Note: Any of the four customizable profiles (5 through 8) that are not programmed will
function the same as the None profile. See "Creating Custom UF Profiles" on page 208 for
instructions on how to customize these profiles.
To initiate an ultrafiltration profile, select one of the profiles by touching the appropriate
button. Enter the desired UF Goal and UF Time values using the numeric keys or the
(up or down) keys on the data entry keypad and confirming with the CONFIRM key. The
UF Goal and UF Time values from the "Home" screen will appear in the "UF Profiles"
subscreen. Once the UF Goal and UF Time are entered, the Maximum UF Rate for the
selected profile is calculated and displayed in the corresponding text box on the screen.

Profile 3 – Moderate level UF increase throughout approximately
the first 60% of treatment and declines to a minimum.
Profile 4 – Low-level UF moving into a series of decreasing peaks
and valleys for the first two-thirds of the treatment followed by a
plateau of moderate UF to completion.
Profiles 5, 6, 7, 8 – Customizable in Service Mode, see page 208
for more information. The images on these buttons will match the
appearance of the customized profiles.
None – Ultrafiltration occurs at a constant minimum rate calculated
from the set UF Time in order to reach the set UF Goal. It does not
mean that no ultrafiltration will occur.
UF Goal – This is the value from the "Home" screen, see page 72
for more information.
Maximum UF Rate – Once the UF Goal and UF Time are entered,
the Maximum UF Rate for the selected profile is calculated and
displayed here. The calculated rate cannot exceed the Maximum
UF Rate limit set in Service Mode, see Figure 72 – Service Mode:
Options: Default Settings Screen on page 209.
UF Time – This is the value from the "Home" screen, see page 72
for more information. When a UF profile is selected and confirmed,
the machine will apply the new UF profile to the remaining UF time
in twelve equal segments.
