Morning all,
I had a T machine this morning that was pulled for a blood leak this AM. After further investigation, it appears the blood leak calibration was "lost" overnight. The machine worked yesterday. It failed the self test this morning before the patient was put on and pulled due to that.
My question, is this a batt ram failure starting to rear it head or is this held somewhere else in the system?
The machine was plugged in the entire time.
Thanks for your time to read and thoughts.
Eric

Usually when the battery ram fails the first thing that goes out of whack is the clock, and then the machine can't remember the date of the last disinfection and then a host of problems appear. Sometimes as the battery ram fails, the clock will lose time every day.
I think I would try a blood leak detector calibration first.

I would reseat function board make sure your pins are pushed in correctly then reseat actuator and sensor boards then do blood leak cal/sometimes if pins on boards aren't locked in correctly then someone bangs machine around you will get blood leak alarms

also insure that the machine is bleached first, and that the glass bulb inside the blood leak detector is not scratched or cloudy

Thank you all for the ideas. I did a bleach disinfect the night before. The machine re calibrated fine. So strange that it had just lost the calibration out of no where. I have seen the batt ram failures before and so did not really suspect (the clock is still correct) but wondered if that was a calibration kept by the batt ram. Thank you again for the ideas and the info. Will keep in the back of my mind and hope it helps someone else!

I have that issue relatively frequently. Big F told me to reseat the Sensor Board. :/

Use to see this a lot with K2s and K machines. For me it always a new eprom chip and function board.
