PrisMax overview Powering on/off WARNING! After turning on the control unit, verify that the red status light is lit, and the speaker is activated during the start-up sequence. In case of malfunction, turn off the control unit, unplug the control unit, and call service. NOTE! The intended operator position during PrisMax operation is by the patient or at the front of the control unit. Follow these steps to turn the control unit on ( "Power control panel", page 8): 1. Connect the system power cord to AC power. The AC power indicator will illuminate green. 2. Press the green On/Standby button. The status light at the top of the display turns green, and the Power-on Screen appears. 1. If the system passes the Power-On-Self-Test (POST) the Start screen ( "Start screen", page 9) appears. If a POST failure is displayed, reset the system. If the POST failure continues, call service. To power off, press and hold the On/Standby button until the screen turns off. 3. If a filter set, solutions, or bags are already connected to the system, tap the End button, and follow the onscreen instructions to remove the components.

Figure Start screen
User interface Using the touchscreen The PrisMax system uses two types of screens: the Procedure screens and the Operations screen. The Procedure screens guide the operator through the starting and stopping of a therapy. The Operations screen is the home screen used during therapy. Any other information is displayed as pop-up windows on the screen. The toolbar is always visible at the top of the screen. Procedure screen See "Procedure screen", page 10, that shows the layout and key elements of a Procedure screen.

During Setup, tapping the button cancels the setup procedure. During therapy, tap to stop control unit. Stops all motors and closes the return clamp. Select one of the options from the pop-up window (resume treatment, discard set, blood recirculation, or saline recirculation). The button changes title from CANCEL to STOP to END depending on the operating mode of the PrisMax system.
Tap to take a screenshot. This button is only available if previously selected from the Tools menu.
History
The PrisMax system continuously stores and updates the control unit conditions and operating data. Tap the History button to view the History screen. See "History screen",page 15. The History button is active during Therapy or End mode. It is also active in Setup mode if continuing treatment on the same patient.

Figure History screen History includes I/O data, events, and graphs related to pressures. The I/O data includes the current period and the cumulative fluid removal volumes during treatments. All events during Setup and Therapy are stored in the order of occurrence in a treatment file. Each event includes a description, time, and date. Graphs of the operating pressures are accessible from the Pressure History screen. Saving history data The PrisMax system saves the history data for each treatment as a treatment file. The system stores up to 400 MB of treatment files data. If the memory is full, the oldest treatment file is replaced with the new treatment file. The history data can only be accessed while in Service mode. Tools overview
Tap the Tools button to select a system tool from the pop-up window ( "Tools window", page 16). AW8035 Rev B JUN2019 Program version: 2.XX

Figure Tools window Normalize Blood Leak Detector (BLD) WARNING! Fluid in effluent line must be verified to be free of blood before normalizing the blood leak detector. The Normalize Blood Leak Detector (BLD) tool normalizes the detector signal to a value that indicates that no blood is present in the effluent line. The system automatically normalizes the blood leak detector when priming is complete. Use this tool to normalize the blood leak detector if the effluent line is removed and then replaced during treatment. Adjust deaeration chamber NOTE! Increasing the fluid level in the deaeration chamber draws the excess air into the monitor line and out through the return line pressure port. The PrisMax system automatically monitors and adjusts the fluid level in the deaeration chamber. This tool is available only during therapy and after prime has completed and provides the means to adjust the level that the auto adjustment uses as a target level. Disabling the auto liquid level adjustment for the deaeration chamber allows for manual

adjustment of the level, but fluid leveling will no longer be automatic and subject to flow rate factors. The fluid level can vary because of events during the treatment. For example, changing a solution bag can introduce a small amount of air into the set. A fluid level that is too high increases the risk of wetting the return line fluid barrier. A wet fluid barrier blocks the return line, causing the loss of return pressure monitoring. A fluid level that is too low can cause an alarm because of air bubbles going from the deaeration chamber to the Air Bubble Detector (ABD).
Figure Recommended fluid level Sometimes a significant amount of foam can form at the top of the deaeration chamber. If the foam reaches the fluid barrier, it can interfere with the return pressure monitoring and cause alarms. The automatic liquid level function is able to detect foam and will make the appropriate adjustments to try and avoid reaching the fluid barrier. Increasing the post-replacement infusion rate may reduce the amount of foam. Initiate self test The PrisMax system automatically does a complete self test ten minutes after the treatment begins and then every two hours after that. If an alarm goes off at the scheduled start of a periodic self test, the periodic self test may be delayed. AW8035 Rev B JUN2019 Program version: 2.XX
18 - PrisMax overview The software handles some alarms differently during the self test. Some alarm limits temporarily change or are disabled during the self test. The self test checks the functionality of the following components: • Automatic Reposition System (ARPS) pump • Blood Leak Detector (BLD) • Discharge ring guide • Liquid Level Sensor (LLS) • Pressure sensors • Return clamp
Initiating a self test To start a full self test, or an individual test, do the following: 1. Tap the Tools button. 2. Tap Self Test. 3. Tap Run All Self Tests, or tap an individual test. The status of the self test is displayed when the Self Test window is open. See "Self test window", page 19.
An advisory message shows during the self test in the message center, and the pressure alarm bars turn grey. If any part of the self test fails, an alarm message shows the problem and suggests corrective action. This is available only during therapy.
