Terminology Terminology Terminology Terminology
Momentary Press: A quick press, less than 1 second, and then release of a key on the keypad.
Display Blink: A momentary blanking of the LCD display. This indicates that the new data
entered by the user is valid and has been stored.
Program Entry
Mode: The mode where the Program Phase and Program function are selected and
modified. In this mode the ‘Program Phase #’ and the ‘Program Function’ modes
of the ‘Rate’ and ‘Volume’ keys are relevant.
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 ‘Start’/’Stop’ key, or any other source, the
pump begins performing the operations in the Pumping Program until the
Pumping Program ends or the pump is stopped with the ‘Start/Stop’ key, or 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 system to pump, then associated
with that Phase is the Phases’ pumping information. When ‘Program Entry
Mode’ is exited, the ‘Rate’, ‘Volume’, and pumping direction keys 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 system to pump, require additional data.
This additional data, displayed with the function, is the function’s parameter.
Start Trigger: The Pumping Program may be started, or stopped, from multiple sources. These
are the keypad’s ‘Start’/’Stop’ key, the TTL I/O ‘Operational Trigger’ input, or
from a command received through the RS-232 connection.
