Accu-Chek insulin pump manual 168

Safety system	Alert system, beeps, information
	on the display, vibrations, dual
	microprocessor. The insulin pump is
	controlled by two microprocessors.
	The safety concept is based on one
	processor (supervisor processor)
	supervising the other (main
	processor). Whenever a defect or
	fault occurs in the main processor,
	as identified by the supervisor
	processor, the motor is immediately
	switched off and an error E7:
	ELECTRONIC ERROR occurs.
	Conversely, the main processor
	can also determine at any time
	whether the supervisor is working
	correctly. The brushless motor also
	constitutes an important safety
	component. It provides the best
	possible reliability and accuracy in
	insulin delivery.

Temporary Basal Rate	Adjustable in 10% increments,
	0-90% for decreases, 110-200%
	for increases. The duration is
	adjustable in 15-minute intervals,
	up to a maximum of 24 hours. The
	last programmed duration is given
	by default for the next temporary
	basal rate change programmed.
