Decimal Point Key
There are 4 decimal point positions on the LCD display. Each decimal point position is to the right of a
digit in the display. The last decimal point position, to the right of the right-most digit is not displayed,
indicating whole numbers with no decimal point.
To move the decimal point, simultaneously press the 2 up arrow keys under the 2 digits next to the
decimal point position. Press the same 2 up arrow keys to clear the decimal point, to display a whole
number.
Alternatively, to move the decimal point position, use the left-most arrow key / decimal point key (
/ ).
Press and hold this key for at least 1 second and wait until the left-most digit scrolls past ‘9’ to ‘0’. While
continuing to hold this key, the decimal point will shift 1 position to the right. After the right-most
decimal point position, the decimal point will shift to the first decimal point position. Release the key
when the decimal point is in the required position.

‘Diameter’ and ‘Setup’ Key
The ‘Diameter’ key allows the peristaltic tube inside diameter to be viewed and set. While being
displayed, the ‘Tubing ID Inches’ LED is lit. The diameter can be changed by holding the ‘Diameter’ key
while turning on power, then selecting ‘DIA’.
If the ‘Diameter’ key is pressed and held, ‘Setup’ mode will be entered. (see sec. 6.14, ‘Setup’ ).
When the Pumping Program is operating, pressing this key will display the current peristaltic tube
diameter for review. When the key is released, the display returns to its previous display.
The diameter is displayed as a fraction: 03:16 indicates 3/16” ID tubing.

‘Rate’ and ‘Learn / Program Phase #’ Key
When the Pumping Program is stopped, except in “Program Entry Mode”, the ‘Rate’ key allows the
pumping rate to be viewed or changed. If the currently selected function allows selection of rate units,
momentarily pressing this key will switch between the ‘Rate’ display and the select rate units mode.
To change the pumping rate displayed, use the arrow keys.
While the Pumping Program is operating, pressing this key will display the current pumping rate, if
applicable. After the key is released, the pumping rate will continue to be displayed for 2 seconds. While
displayed, the current pumping rate can be changed by pressing the arrow keys. The rate units will blink
while the rate is being changed. The new pumping rate takes effect when the display blinks after a 2
second delay or when a non-arrow key is pressed. The new pumping rate is stored in the current Program
Phase.

A pumping rate of 0.0 will stop the pump. When the
pumping rate is changed, if it is out of range of the pumping
rate limits, the display will show
nn
, where ‘nn’ indicates
the currently selected Phase Number. Pressing any key clears
the message and returns to the previous pumping rate. See
section 14.7, “Flow Rate Limits
