General Description

1 .I Introduction

This manual provides service information for the Flo-Gard@ 6201 Single Channel Volumetric Infusion Pump (product code 2M8063) for qualified hospital biomedical engineers and service personnel. See the pump’s Operator’s Manual for detailed operating instructions.

1.2 Features

The Flo-Gard@ 6201 Single Channel Volumetric Infusion Pump is an electromechanical pump used for the intravenous infusion of liquids at user-selected rates. The pump contains a linear
peristaltic pump head which is programmable and permits infusion of primary and secondary
medication programs. The secondary program automatically switches over to the primary pro­gram when secondary infusion is complete (automatic piggybacking).
1
The pump operates on standard 115 VAC 60 Hz electrical power, or on its self-contained re-
chargeable battery. It is portable and has a panel lock-out feature to prevent patient tampering. It is designed for use with Baxter’s standard administration sets which contain an “s” as the last
character of the code number, for example, 20537s. When infusing solutions through a central line catheter, sets with a Luer lock adapter should be used. Sets with a Flashball@ device are not recommended in these applications.
The primary rate of infusion is selectable from 1 to 1,999 mL in 1 mL/hr increments and 1 .O to
99.9 mL/hr in 0.1 mL/hr increments. The secondary rate is selectable from 1 to 999 mL in 1 mL/hr increments and 1 .O to 99.9 mL/hr in 0.1 mL/hr increments. The volume to be infused (VTBI) is also selectable from 1 to 9,999 mL in 1 mL increments and 1.0 to 99.9 mL in 0.1 mL increments.
The total volumes infused from primary and secondary programs are added together and accu­mulated and can be displayed on demand. The primary and secondary VTBIs are independently decremented and displayed. Upon completion of the primary VTBI, the pump automatically switches to a keep vein open (KVO) rate. If the pump is started on a secondary rate and VTBI, the pump will change to the primary rate when the secondary program is completed. The pump may be stopped at any time by pressing the STOP key unless the pump is in the lockout mode.

7-19-Al-688
The Programmed Delivery Profile (PDP) enables manual programming or ramped calculation (available only on pumps running software versions 1.09 or later) of up to 10 sequential infusion programs for situations where multiple flow rates are indicated. See the appropriate Operator’s Manual for additional information.
1.2.1 Nurse Call
The Nurse Call feature is enabled by installing a jumper wire to the Terminal Printed Circuit Board at the location labeled R421 on the board. When the jumper is connected, the Nurse Call relay will be energized only during an alarm condition and when the ALARM LED is lit. The re­lay contact points (normally closed, normally open, and common) are accessible from the COM­MUNICATIONS PORT on the rear of the pump (pins 1,4, and 9, respectively). The Nurse Call feature may be used when the pump is connected to a computer, however, provisions must be made at the communications port to connect both options simultaneously. Specifications for the 9-pin D connector are listed under Technical Specifications.

1.5 Configuration Option Feature

This section describes the configuration option feature of the pump, which allows qualified per­sonnel to inspect and/or modify certain pump operating parameters to suit customer require­ments.
These parameters and their setting options are shown in Table 1- 1. The factory settings made at the time of manufacture are also shown in the table.
Note: Although the configuration option data is stored in battery backed-up
RAM, it may be lost if the main battery connector (CN302) is discon­nected from the CPU board without turning off the device. The con­figuration option data is also lost if the lithium backup battery connector (CN304) is disconnected while the main battery is discon­nected. Therefore, we advise that the configuration options be re­corded before beginning repair procedures and reset when repairs are complete.
1.5.1 Reviewing the Configuration Option Settings
To review the configuration option settings, the pump must be powered on and stopped. Press TIME and TOT VOWSTATUS simultaneously for one second. The message REVlEW
CONFlG
will be displayed in the Message Display. The option description will be displayed in the first line of the Message Display when the NEXT or SEC START key is pressed, beginning with
CLUSION.
The current setting will be displayed on the second line.
OC-
To view the next setting, press the NEXT or SEC START key. Each press of the NEXT or SEC START key will cause the pump to advance to the next setting, in the order shown in Table l-l, starting with Occlusion Alarm Level. To exit the inspection mode, press the STOP key or press TIME and TOT VOLBTATUS simultaneously.
1.5.2 Modifying the Configuration Option Settings
