Terminology

Pumping Program:

The sequence of automated operations entered into the pump. This could be
as simple as a single function to pump at a single infusion rate continuously.

Pumping Program
Operating:

When the pump is started with the RUN command, or any other source, the
pump begins performing the operations in the Pumping Program until the
Pumping Program either stops automatically or the pumped is stopped with
the STP command, or from any other source. While performing the
operations defined in the Pumping Program, the Pumping Program is referred
to as operating.

While Operating, the motor can be pumping or stopped, according to the
Pumping Program.

Pumping Program
Stopped:

The motor is stopped and the pump is not operating the Pumping Program.

Pumping Program
Paused:

The Pumping Program has been stopped, but can be resumed at the point
where it was stopped.

Pumping Program
Resumed:

Continuing a Pumping Program that was Paused before the completion of the
Pumping Program. The Pumping Program continues at the point where the
Pumping Program was stopped.

Executed:

The pump has performed a single operational Phase as defined in the Pumping
Program.

Program Phase:

A single defined operation in the Pumping Program.

Phase Number:

A Program Phase’s numerical sequence location in the Pumping Program.

Currently Selected
Function:

Each Pumping Program Phase instructs the pump to perform a particular
operation. Only one Program Phase is selected at any one time. This is the
current Phase. Each Phase is set to one function. The set function of the
current Phase is the currently selected function.

Pumping Rate
Function:

Each Pumping Program function instructs the pump to perform a particular
operation. If the Phase’s operation instructs the SP2200 to pump, then
associated with that Phase is the Phases’ pumping information. When a
Program Phase is selected, the ‘Rate’, ‘Volume’, and pumping direction refer
to the currently selected Program Phase’s function. The Program functions
that are associated with pumping information are referred to as Pumping Rate
functions.

Function
Parameter:

Certain functions, which do not instruct the SP2200 to pump, require
additional data. This additional data, sent with the function command, is the
function’s parameter.
