11.4 Alarm circuit fault – horn remains off (or on)<br />
Alarm circuit fault – horn remains off (or on)<br />
During the “Alarm circuit self-test” or in the event of an alarm, an error in the alarm<br />
circuit is determined.<br />
Depending on the error, this message appears:<br />
• “Alarm circuit fault – horn remains off”<br />
• “Alarm circuit fault – horn remains on”<br />
• “The acoustic alarm was not correctly detected”<br />
Warning!<br />
• In the event of an alarm, the <strong>Ikus</strong> does not generate an acoustic signal or generates an<br />
incorrect acoustic signal. Follow the messages in the message window carefully and pay<br />
attention to the visual signal display in the display and operating panel. Do not operate<br />
the <strong>Ikus</strong> without supervision!<br />

11.5 Connect the driving tube<br />
<strong>Instructions</strong><br />
1. Check the driving tube and plug.<br />
2. Is the plug position incorrect? Correct the plug position. To do so, grab the plug by the<br />
ribbed plug body and pull it out of the connector, then insert it into the connector again.<br />
Check that the plug is firmly seated. To do so, pull the plug above the ribbed plug body.<br />
Never pull on the tube!<br />
3. Driving tube fault: Replace the driving tube.<br />
11.5.1 Replace the driving tube<br />
The driving tubes (red/blue) have a maximum lifespan of 500 days (see section 13.2:<br />
"Technical specifications", p. 89). Then they must be replaced.<br />
Recommendation<br />
We recommend also replacing the driving tubes (in univentricular mode red or blue)<br />
each time the pump is replaced, unless the last replacement was very recent.<br />
Warning!<br />
• Replacing a driving tube requires stopping the pump briefly. If the left driving tube is<br />
replaced in biventricular mode, the right pump must also be stopped <strong>for</strong> the duration of<br />
the replacement to prevent overloading of the pulmonary circulation (risk of pulmonary<br />
edema).<br />
Material<br />
• 1 Driving tube, red or blue<br />
• 1 Tube attachment set from accessory set (cable tie strap, cable tie pliers)<br />
<strong>Instructions</strong><br />
1. Carefully cut through the cable tie strap on the faulty driving tube.<br />
2. If necessary, enter the <strong>use</strong>r number and password in the monitoring program, then<br />
confirm with .<br />
3. Select the option “Drive pa<strong>use</strong>”, then confirm with . Confirm the decision in the<br />
dialog window with or . The <strong>Ikus</strong> stops.<br />
4. As soon as the pump stops, remove the faulty driving tube from the pump.<br />
5. Connect the new driving tube to the pump. To do so, slide the tube carefully onto the<br />
driving tube connector.<br />
6. Pull the faulty driving tube out of the connector on the <strong>Ikus</strong>. To do so, grab the plug by<br />
the ribbed plug body and pull it out of the connector.<br />
