Self Tests
During the self tests, the pump’s internal computer
performs tests on all the major hardware, computer, and
electronic systems.
☞
Warning: If there are any system problems, the
pump will stop the tests and display an alarm
screen letting you know there is a problem. If this
happens, do not use the pump.
After installing a new battery, watch the pump’s display
and verify the following:
• The internal computer’s software version appears, as
well as the pump serial number (SN) and last error
code (if any).
• The entire display becomes a darker gray. Look for
any blank or incomplete areas, which indicates a
broken display. The display then briefly turns off.
• The pump’s internal computer tests the major hard-
ware, computer and electronic systems. If there is a
problem with any system, an alarm occurs and you
will not be able to start insulin delivery.
When the self tests are complete, power up ends and
the pump beeps 6 times and stops at the home screen.
The first time you insert a battery and your new pump
performs the self tests, you will see the following alert
screens:
• a screen will appear that reads “Program Defaulted Set
time and date”. Program the current time and date by
pressing
b
and
c
to set the highlighted value, then press-
ing Next to move through the sequence. When the time
and date are correct, press Done.
• Next you will see a screen that reads “Program Defaulted
You must program the pump”. Press OK.
• After the pump beeps 6 times, a screen that reads “Car-
tridge removed Insert filled cartridge to continue deliv-
ery” is displayed. Press OK; the pump goes to the Load
menu. If you are ready to load a cartridge, follow the steps
indicated starting on page 35. If you aren’t ready to load a
cartridge yet, press Done.
NOTE: The pump has a built-in internal battery that pow-
ers the clock and allows the pump to store the programs
and history (see page 107) which is charged by the AAA
alkaline battery. If your pump has not been charged for
awhile, you may see a screen that reads “Program De-
faulted Setup of cartridge volume required, with no car-
tridge present, press Next”. Make sure no cartridge is
loaded into the pump and press Next.
