1. General Scope and Features

The Blood Collection Monitor TM CM350 monitors blood flow to measure blood volume collected in
the blood bag, and clamps the tubing automatically when the collected blood volume reaches the
preset target volume.

A large display panel displays pertinent information, as the following:

- Total weight of blood and blood bag (GM) --- (range: 0 ~ 1,199 gram)
- Collected blood volume (ML) --- (range: 0 ~ 1,199 mL)
- Preset target volume (ML) --- (range: 100 ~ 600 mL)
- Elapsed time of collection (min : sec) --- (range: 0 : 00 ~ 19 : 59)
- Operation mode and symbols (LOW, ALARM, PRESET, CAL, , , , GM, ML)

To ensure error-free operation, diverse audible and visual alarms are activated:
- When a collection procedure is properly completed. ("End collection alarm")
- When one minute has elapsed since the preceding mixing. ("No mix alarm")
- When 30 seconds have elapsed since the bag was removed from hook. ("Bag off alarm")
- When blood flow rate is lower than 30 mL/min. ("Low flow alarm")
- When 20 minutes have elapsed from collection start. ("20 minute alarm")
- When battery voltage is low. ("Low battery alarm")

Audible alarms are also generated to provide the following alert and indication messages:
- Beeps for 10 seconds when 10 minutes have elapsed from collection start. ("10 minute alarm")
- 3 beeps when [POWER] key is accidentally pressed in a collection cycle. ("Wrong key alarm")
- A short (0.2 sec) beep when any control key is pressed. ("Key touch indication")
- A long (0.5 sec) beep when device power is turned on or off. ("Power on/off indication")

Three indication lamps on the panel provide visual signals to phlebotomists.

- The START lamp turns on when collection starts and flashes when collection is completed.
- The CLAMP lamp indicates tubing is clamped or not.
- The MIX lamp signals it's time to mix the blood bag.

4-2. Automatic Weight Calibration

It is recommended that the weight calibration procedure be performed prior to the first donor
collection of the day. It is also recommended when collecting on a mobile vehicle, to repeat the
weight calibration procedure each time the vehicle is moved to a new location. Precise leveling of
the unit or the site is not required. The weight calibration procedure can be done automatically
using the following steps.

 Automatic calibration procedure:

(1) Press and hold [POWERCAL] key for 3 seconds.

 Calibration mode starts.
 The display panel shows C A L for 3 seconds, and then
shows 0 GM.

(2) When 0 GM is displayed, place the 500-gram calibration weight

on the bag hook.
 The display panel shows current reading of calibration weight.
 CAUTION: Keep the calibration weight from moving.
Don't touch any part of the unit and the stand.
 In 10 seconds the display panel indication changes to 500 and
flashes. A long beep sounds.

 REMARK: If the display panel shows the following screen

instead of showing 500, AdJ is displayed and flashes. It is an
error message indicating a manual adjustment is necessary
prior to automatic calibration procedure.

Remove the calibration weight from hook and follow the

procedure in the Section 4-3 below.
(3) Remove the calibration weight from hook.
 Power turns off automatically.
 Calibration mode is completed.

11
4-3. Manual Calibration Adjustment

As in the Section 4-2, weight calibration is done automatically. However, automatic calibration can
be done when calibration deviation remains within ±2 % range (490-510 grams). If the calibration
deviation falls outside the range, a manual adjustment is necessary to get calibration deviation back
into automatic adjustable range. It could happen if CM350 has had severe shocks.
If A d J appears during calibration process in the Section 4-2-(2), remove the calibration weight
from hook, and follow the manual calibration adjustment procedure below.
Manual calibration adjustment is done by simply turning a potentiometer located on the left side.
In the hole next to the charger jack is a potentiometer. Turning the potentiometer changes load cell
circuit ratio to adjust the calibration deviation back into automatic adjustable range.

 Manual calibration adjustment procedure:

(1) If A d J appears during calibration process in Section 4-2-(2),

remove the calibration weight from hook.
 Power turns off automatically.
(2) Again, press and hold [POWERCAL] key for 3 seconds.
 The display shows C A L, and then 0.

(3) Press [START] key once.

 DO NOT place the calibration weight on the hook.
 A d J appears for 3 seconds, and then 0 is displayed.

(4) When 0 GM is displayed, place the 500-gram calibration weight

on the bag hook.
 The display panel shows current reading of the weight.
(5) Turn the potentiometer either CW or CCW until the value
falls within the 499-501 range.
(6) Remove the calibration weight from hook.
Wait for 3 seconds until 0 is displayed.
(7) Place the calibration weight again on the hook.
If the value is out of the 499-501 range, repeat (5)-(7).
(8) When the value falls within the 499-501 range, remove the
calibration weight from hook
(9) When 0 GM is displayed, press [POWERCAL] key to exit
manual calibration adjustment mode.
 Turn power off.
(10) Follow the automatic calibration procedure in Section 4-2.
