MASTER & SLAVE (cascade)
3. MASTER & SLAVE (CASCADE)
3.1. General
The system V4 firmware allows to cascade two docking stations (both either ARGUS 60 M
or ARGUS 100 M). Thus many more combinations of pumps are possible and a single barcode reader can be used to operate both docking stations.
With the ARGUS service configuration indexes # 1+2+3+4 you define a
logical communication sequence:
(Personal Computer optional) → Master docking → Slave docking → (Barcode-Reader optional)
Example:
(e.g. ARGUS 60 M)

4. ARGUS SERVICE
4.1. General
The new ARGUS service utility is a highly user friendly PC software which can config-
ure and upgrade ARGUS devices over PC serial COM port. With this Windows based
software you can also set pump clock, change PIN code, read and print out history
and easily replicate pump configurations, and so on. The modern and clearly structured design of this self-describing PC-tool allows a very easy and rapid modification
of the ARGUS 600 Syringe pump, the ARGUS 707 / 708 Volumetric infusion pump
and the ARGUS 60 M / 100 M docking station. This software may be available from
your local distributor or directly from ARGUS Medical.
REMARK:
“ARGUS service” may only be used with V4 software versions greater or equal to 4.30.
CAUTION!
The docking station has to be disconnected from the pumps before and while the serial interface cable is connected to the docking station.
Connect a straight RS-232 cable from the docking data interface to the serial interface (COM port) of your PC.
ARGUS service

4.2. ARGUS service – Configuration
Important remark:
After each configuration change,
a functional check has to be done!
ARGUS service
Select the next step by pressing one of the
buttons (“Configuration” or “View history”).
4.2.1. Docking configuration
All configuration possibilities (indexes) mentioned in chapter 2.2 can be modified
herein in its own tree structure as shown above.
All indexes which are different from the ARGUS firmware default are highlighted.
CAUTION!
Every pump used with the ARGUS 60 M or ARGUS 100 M docking station has to be
preconfigured with its corresponding serial number label!
Index #396 in the configuration of each pump must be programmed with the corresponding serial number. Please refer to the pumps respective service manual to
change these indexes if necessary. In the case of an invalid serial number, the docking station will generate an alarm and the pump can not be programmed via barcode.
