Section 2: Pump Setup and Programming
Reservoir Volume
Enter the volume of fluid contained in a filled fluid container. The Reser-
voir Volume value decreases as the pump delivers fluid or as you prime
the tubing. When you change the fluid container, reset the reservoir
volume on this screen. If you do not wish to use the Reservoir Volume
feature, select "Not In Use" (located before 1 and after 9999 in the range
of values).
The reservoir volume could be set higher than the capacity of the fluid
container. Be sure to program the reservoir volume to reflect the actual
volume of the medication being used.
Dose Volume
Enter the volume of the dose in milliliters. The maximum volume is
1000 ml. Entering a Dose Volume will automatically reset the cycle and
set the time that the "Next Dose Starts in" to "Immediate." If you enter a
Dose Volume that would cause the rate to be greater than the maximum
rate of 125 ml/hr, the pump will automatically lengthen the Dose Dura-
tion to accommodate the new volume. You will then need to confirm the
new Dose Duration or enter a different duration. The cycle may also be
affected if the Dose Duration is lengthened; in this case, you would also
need to confirm the new Dose Cycle or enter a different Dose Cycle.
Dose Duration
Enter the duration for delivery of the dose, up to 24 hours. You will not
be able to select a duration that would cause the rate of delivery of the
programmed Dose Volume to exceed 125 ml/hr. Entering a Dose Dura-
tion will automatically reset the Dose Cycle and set the Dose Starts in to
"Immediate."
Dose Cycle
The cycle is the time from the start of one dose to the start of the next dose.
The programmable values for cycle are based on the Dose Duration. There
must be at least 5 minutes between the end of one dose and the start of the
next; therefore, the minimum programmable cycle is the Dose Duration
plus 5 minutes. The maximum cycle is 96 hours. Entering a cycle automati-
cally sets the Next Dose Start Time to "Immediate."
