This feature is previously described in this Chapter.
Self test
1. Self Test allows the user to perform a diagnostic
test of the Pump and PPC operating system.
Messages are relayed between the PPC and
Pump.
From the “SETUP PUMP” screen, press
ACT. Press SEL until the “SELF TEST” screen
is displayed. Press ACT.
2. Place the PPC near the Pump and complete the
communication process.
3. Verify that the following events occur:
• A series of tones will be heard from the Pump (4 beeps).
• An alarm tone will be heard from the PPC.
• The backlight on the PPC will turn on.
• The PPC screen will briefly activate all possible display icons, numbers,
etc.
• The PPC will vibrate.
NOTE: If the above test results do not occur or the screen
displays irregular characters, please notify
Medtronic MiniMed. If the PPC displays the Medtronic
MiniMed logo and software version, the PPC has
restarted due to a low battery. Replace the battery
immediately.
If all electronics “pass” the Self Test, the screen will automatically change to
“PPC PASSED/PUMP PASSED.” After several seconds, the screen will return to
the Time/Date screen.
