OPERATION ERROR SCREENS Missing Calibration Error PUMP NAME If any of the pumps are not calibrated prior to opera- CALIBRATE PUMP tion you will get a “CALIBRATE PUMP” error screen in red showing which pump is missing the calibration. Press any key to continue. Go into the main menu and calibrate pumps.
PC APPLICATION The Control Guard ACCS can be programmed using the front panel on the machine or by programming a system setup file using the PC software application and uploading the settings to the machine using a USB device. The preferred method is to use the pc software tool as it will save time and allow you to use previously programmed files saved on your computer.
