1 Select values
Touch the yellow button to select the value it displays:
drain exit %— If this option is set to 70%, the cycler
will not allow you to complete a Drain until you have
drained at least 70% of the drain volume. This is the
default setting.
If this option is set to 85%, the cycler will not allow you
to complete a Drain until you have drained at least 85%
of the drain volume. Follow your prescription and your
PD nurse's instructions.
add. drain (additional drain)—If this option is set to
YES, you can perform an additional (planned) drain
after completing the last drain. The cycler will prompt
you to choose whether or not to do an additional drain
(see Page 150 for more information).
If this option is set to NO, the treatment will continue
normally. This option defaults to NO. Follow your PD
nurse's instructions.
add. drain alert (additional drain alert)—If this
option is set to YES, your cycler will alert you with an
alarm sound to choose whether or not to do an
additional drain.
If this option is set to NO, the cycler will prompt you to
choose whether or not to do an additional drain, but
without an alarm sound.
flow alert and flow alert sound—The flow alert is a
series of self-resetting notification alerts in the form of
four soft beeps and an on-screen notification message. It
can occur during Drain and Fill phases. This notification
sounds if you are not draining or filling as expected.
The flow alert allows you to correct drain or fill issues
caused by a kink in the line, or by your body position,
without having to interact with the cycler. Once the flow
restarts, the alert will stop.
Liberty Select Cycler User's Guide
Note: The sound level or volume of the flow alert
is not adjustable but depends on the 'alarm
loudness' setting. These sounds are a series of
gentle beeps with the first alert at 25 % of the
programmed alarm loudness, the next is 50%, and
the last is 75%. Each series of beeps occur about
one minute apart as long as the cycler detects slow
or no flow.
