Air Bubble Detect Module
The air bubble detect (ABD) module is the interface between an air sensor and the
system. The ABD module monitors the air sensor and communicates any alarms to
the system.
Air Sensor
The air sensor is a non-invasive, ultrasonic sensor which can detect air bubbles in the
perfusion circuit. The air sensor is detachable from the ABD module.
Alarm
An event that requires immediate attention and correction, e.g., an air alarm. An
alarm message is displayed in the CCM message area in large flashing red letters. A
dual tone sounds and repeats at one minute intervals to warn the user that an alarm
event has occurred. Pumps and the occluder can be set up to respond to certain
alarm events.
Alert
An event that may lead to an alarm situation if it is not corrected, e.g., a low level
alert. An alert message is displayed in the CCM message area in large flashing
yellow letters. A single tone sounds and repeats at one minute intervals to warn the
user that an alert event has occurred. Pumps can be set up to respond to certain
alert events.
Assigning Devices
Takes place in the Configuration Screen when devices and sensors configured on a
Perfusion Screen are assigned to actual physical components.
Automatic Event
An event that is not generated directly by a device or sensor, for example, the
completion of an automatic cardioplegia dose.
Auxiliary Tab
A Perfusion Screen tab that allows the user to view and control auxiliary timers and
view system messages.
Backup Pump
A designation that can be assigned to one pump in a Perfusion Screen. This feature
allows all the settings of the Primary Pump to be reassigned to the backup pump with
the exception of the tube size or roller pump flow constant. Backup pump designation
also allows the reassignment of primary pump functionality to a pump of a different
type.
Battery Alert Tone
A unique single tone pattern, repeated at 3 minute intervals, which indicates that the
system is operating on battery power. This alert tone cannot be muted.
