With pumps having as many complex features as the NE-1000 series, it is easy for a novice user experimenting
with the pump's setup to get the pump into a 'weird' state. Performing this reset function will bring the pump
out of a 'weird' state.
5.12 Error and Status Messages
Value entered is ‘Out Of Range’ of the pump’s operational limits. Check the pumping
rate and/or the syringe inside diameter setting is correct.
Key pressed is not currently applicable.
Indicates pumping rate or volume units change mode. The units LED's will also be
blinking. Press any up arrow key to change the units.
Indicates that the pump is purging. Displayed while holding down the 'Start/Stop' key.
Displayed while holding down the direction key and performing a reverse purge.
6. Operation
Before the pump can be operated, the pumping data must be setup. The syringe inside
diameter and a non-zero pumping rate needs to be set. The operation of the pump can
then be started by pressing the ‘Start / Stop’ key.
6.1 Syringe Inside Diameter
The syringe inside diameter can only be set while the Pump is stopped. Use the up arrow keys to set the
diameter value. While the diameter value is being set, the ‘mm’ LED will blink. The new diameter value is
stored after pressing any non-arrow key, or after a 2 second delay.
Valid syringe diameters are from 0.1 mm to 50.0 mm. If the diameter is out of this range, the display will
show ‘oor’. Pressing any key restores the diameter display to its previous value. Changing the syringe
diameter will not zero the pumping rate. Section 9.5, “Syringe Diameters and Rate Limits”, is a
representative list, for reference, of syringe diameters for various syringe manufacturers and syringe sizes.
6.1.1 Volume Units: Default and How to Change
The units of the accumulated infusion volume is set according to the syringe diameter setting. If the default
volume units are changed (see next section), the selected volume units will remain in effect until a reset
function is performed.
From 0.1 to 14.0 mm Syringes smaller than 10 mL: Volume units are ‘µL’
From 14.01 to 50.0 mm Syringes greater than or equal to 10 mL: Volume units are ‘mL’
Changing Volume Units
The volume units used for the accumulated volume can be changed to either ‘mL’ or ‘µL’. Volume units can
only be changed when the pump is stopped.
Display the “Volume Dispensed” by pressing the “Volume” key. The current volume units and the
“Dispensed” LED will be lit.
