11.23 System 3 is faulty<br />

The backup pneumatic system is faulty.<br />

In normal operation<br />

The <strong>Ikus</strong> firstly continues working normally. In the event of the failure of another<br />

pneumatic system, the <strong>Ikus</strong> would start working in emergency operating mode.<br />

11.24 System has reached maximum capacity<br />

The in<strong>for</strong>mation message “System 1 (or system 2 or system 3) has reached maximum<br />

capacity!” appears if, in the current pump cycle, the compressed air constantly generated<br />

by the processor cannot achieve the pressure required to meet the set parameters.<br />

The message may have the following ca<strong>use</strong>s:<br />

• Extreme parameter values (extremely high values or extremely low values)<br />

• Restricted per<strong>for</strong>mance capability of the pneumatics (maintenance required)<br />

• Malfunction in the system<br />

<strong>Instructions</strong><br />

1. Check the status of the patient.<br />

2. Check the filling and emptying of the blood pump(s), and monitor the function of the<br />

<strong>Ikus</strong>. Do not operate the <strong>Ikus</strong> without supervision!<br />

3. Compared the set target parameter values with the achieved actual values. In the event<br />

of deviation from high set values: Reduce the rate if necessary and/or vary the relative<br />

systolic duration, reduce the driving pressure parameters.<br />

4. By scrolling through the message window, check whether the message has already<br />

occurred previously.<br />

5. Observe whether the message occurs again.<br />

If the message occurs several times in the course of 24 h:<br />

Notify hotline! +49(0)30 8187 2772<br />

Note<br />

• Damage to the Driving Unit <strong>Ikus</strong> by exceeding maximum capacity is technically<br />

impossible!<br />

• In the case of high set parameter values, a further increase in the rate or the driving<br />

pressures should be avoided. Otherwise, the <strong>Ikus</strong> per<strong>for</strong>ms a test phase if necessary,<br />

which involves a short stoppage of the blood pump(s).<br />

• The in<strong>for</strong>mation message “System has reached maximum capacity!” is not<br />

accompanied by an acoustic signal.<br />
