3.11. Different configurations If a different configuration is required, please contact our Customer Service Department or the official ARCOMED distributor in your country. 3.12. Accessories and consumables Accessories, expendable parts and single-use items may only be used if they comply with the appropriate international standard and national approvals.
Use cable number 94070 to connect the Nurse call system. Please contact the Customer Service Department of ARCOMED AG for details of the RS232 interface (IR interface) and how to link it to external systems.
Alarm system 4.1. Alarm causes The electronic self-monitoring system continuously monitors the correct functioning of the pump and its displays whilst in operation. If a fault should occur, the infusion is stopped immediately and the alarm activates. The corresponding alarm symbol is illuminated continuously with a red colour and there is a continuous audible alarm.
Page 16
4.6. Battery alarm The pump may be operated independently of the mains power supply using the internal battery. If the mains power supply fails, the pump switches automatically to battery operation to continue the infusion without interruption. Battery operation is indicated by illumination of the battery symbol (17). Battery capacity permits from 3 up to 12 hours operation (1.85 Ah battery) depending on the infusion rate set.
The warranty is rendered null and void if changes or repairs are carried out by persons who have not been authorized in writing to do so by Arcomed AG or Arcomedical Infusion Ltd and if the inspection and maintenance intervals are not observed.

Fluctuations in pump output depend to a great extent on the rate set and decrease as the rate is increased. Remark: Performance data on other syringes can be requested at Arcomed. The accuracy depends mainly on the tolerances of the syringes.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION Introduction The Syramed µSP6000 is a microprocessor-controlled syringe pump having comprehensive software management functions and monitoring. Flow rate may be set over the range 0.1 ml/h to 1500 ml/h depending on the syringe size used. The pump accomodates several major brands of syringe of sizes 5, 10, 20, 30 and 50/60ml.

The relay D10 is periodically switched off for a short period to test the watchdog and the correct functioning of the microcontroller is monitored. There is a second watchdog in the microcontroller. Operating voltages The supply voltage, the 5V logic supply rail and reference voltage are measured and monitored via disc resistors by the analog/digital converter in the microcontroller.
Page 24
A/D converter The microcontroller controls the internal A/D converter and measures the results. Infra red interface The microcontroller sends and receives data via IC's D10 to D12. The encoder D10 converts the signals to Standard IrDA 1.0. The unit can receive and transmit data from above (D11), below and to the rear (D12).

Prime/Bolus Prime/Bolus key Alarm silence/Option 2 MIN, Option (In an emergency the audible alarm is silenced for 2 minutes) 8.2.4. Power supply Mains power is supplied via a toroidal transformer and the rectifier V10. In the event of a mains power supply failure, power is supplied without interruption by the internal battery.
Trouble shooting When a DEFECT signal is given a fault code is displayed automatically. In the Volume ML (12) window a 2-digit figure appears and the cause of the fault indicated is listed in the table that follows. When a fault occurs the code appears automatically as F-xx.
10. Replacement of parts The syramed symbol µSP6000 may only be repaired by ARCOMED AG or persons officially authorised in writing by Arcomed AG or Arcomedical Infusion Ltd to do so. In the event of a warranty claim please send the unit to the address shown in Chapter 1.1.
