Introduction
is Technical Manual is applicable only to the model 2120 CADD®-Solis VIP ambulatory infusion pump.
It is intended to provide a basic but limited understanding of the mechanical and electrical operation
of the CADD®-Solis VIP ambulatory infusion pump to people familiar with the device. It also outlines
cleaning and functional testing procedures that can be performed on the pump. e CADD®-Solis VIP
Operator’s Manual should be used in conjunction with this manual for complete information.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
CADD®-Solis VIP ambulatory infusion pump operations and safety features are based on a
microcomputer design. Inadequate servicing or tampering with the safety features of the pump may
seriously aect performance and safety. For that reason, ALL SERVICING AND REPAIR OF THE
CADD®-SOLIS VIP AMBULATORY INFUSION PUMP MUST BE PERFORMED BY SMITHS
MEDICAL OR ITS AUTHORIZED AGENTS.
e manufacturer’s warranty agreement shall become null and void if the pump is not used in accordance
with the Operator’s Manual and Instructions for Use provided with the pump accessories; or if the pump
is serviced by anyone other than Smiths Medical or those authorized by Smiths Medical.
Limited Warranty
e limited warranty associated with the CADD®-Solis VIP ambulatory infusion pump can be found in
the product literature supplied with the product when originally purchased, which is incorporated herein
by reference. SMITHS MEDICAL SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY OTHER WARRANTY, WHETHER
EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED
WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR USE. Smiths Medical further disclaims
any responsibility for the suitability of the system for a particular medical treatment or for any medical
complications resulting from the use of the system.
e manufacturer shall not be responsible for any incidental damages or consequential damages to
property, loss of prots, or loss of use caused by any defect or malfunction of the system.
If you wish to receive additional information about the extent of the warranty on these products, contact
your Smiths Medical representative or call Customer Service at 1800.258.5361 (USA) or +1214.618.0218.
All recommendations, information, and literature supplied by Smiths Medical with respect to the
CADD®product line are believed to be accurate and reliable, but do not constitute warranties. No agent,
representative, or employee of Smiths Medical has authority to bind Smiths Medical to any representation
or warranty, expressed or implied.
Warnings
•e user should ensure that the performance oered by the pump is t for the intended use and that the
pump is not used in any way or for any purpose other than its intended use.
•If the pump is dropped or hit, inspect it for damage. Do not use a pump that is damaged or not
functioning properly. Contact Smiths Medical Customer Service to return a pump for service.
•Do not use rechargeable NiCd or nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries. Do not use carbon zinc
(“heavy duty”) batteries. ey do not provide sucient power for the pump to operate properly.
•Always check the battery compartment for uid or debris before inserting the batteries, and do not allow
any uid or debris to fall into the battery compartment. Fluid or debris in the battery compartment may
damage the battery contacts, and could result in loss of power and nondelivery of drug.
•Residential/facility wiring must comply with all applicable electrical codes. Do not bypass power cord
connections. Do not remove a prong from the power cord.
•Ensure that the ± 6% system delivery accuracy specication is taken into account when programming
the pump and/or lling the reservoir. Failure to do so may result in medication in the reservoir
becoming depleted sooner than expected.

5
IntroductIon
•System delivery inaccuracies beyond ± 6% may occur as a result of back pressure or uid resistance,
which depends upon temperature, drug viscosity, catheter size, extension set tubing (for example,
microbore), in-line components (such as lters and needleless access connectors), and placing the
infusion reservoir and/or pump above or below the level of the patient. System delivery inaccuracy may
result in under or overdelivery of medication.
•ere are potential health hazards associated with improper disposal of batteries, electronics, and
contaminated (used) reservoirs and extension sets. Dispose of used batteries, reservoirs, extension sets,
and other used accessories, or a pump that has reached the end of its useful life, in an environmentally
safe manner, and according to any regulations that may apply.
•Ensure that debris is not allowed to build up on the pressure plate surface of the pumping mechanism.
Inspect the air detector sensor slot and remove any debris. A blocked air detector sensor may not detect
air present in the uid path.
Cautions
•Do not operate the pump at temperatures below 2°C (36°F) or above 40°C (104°F) to avoid damaging
the electronic circuitry.
•Do not store the pump at temperatures below –20°C (–4°F) or above 60°C (140°F) to avoid damaging
the electronic circuitry. Do not store the pump with a CADD™medication cassette reservoir or CADD®
administration set attached.
•Do not expose the pump to humidity levels below 20% or above 90% relative humidity to avoid
damaging the electronic circuitry.
•Do not store the pump for prolonged periods with the batteries installed. Battery leakage could damage
the pump.
•Do not twist or turn the remote dose cord connector, or use any instrument to remove it from the pump.
•Inspect the AA batteries for damage or wear to the metal or plastic insulation prior to use, or aer the
pump has been dropped or hit. Replace the batteries if any damage is noted.
•If the power up results in an error message indicating that the protocol library was lost, do not proceed
with using the pump. Follow your facility’s procedures for downloading protocol libraries.
•Do not clean the pump with acetone, other plastic solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as damage to the
pump may occur.
•Do not immerse the pump in cleaning uid or water. Do not allow solution to soak into the pump,
accumulate on the keypad, or enter the battery compartment, USB port, remote dose cord jack, or
power jack areas. Moisture buildup inside the pump may damage the pump.
•CADD®pumps are sealed units. A broken or damaged seal will therefore be considered conclusive
evidence that the pump has been misused and/or altered, which voids any and all warranties. All
service and repair of CADD®pumps must be performed by Smiths Medical or its authorized agents.
•At the completion of the Downstream Occlusion Pressure Range Test 2, the pressure must be reduced
to zero before detaching the cassette from the pump; otherwise, the cassette may rupture. Safety glasses
should be worn while conducting or observing this test.

System delivery
accuracy
± 6% (nominal). At low infusion rates, this accuracy may not be achieved for
short periods. During the total infusion time, the accuracy averages out.
WARNING:
•Ensure that the ± 6% system delivery accuracy specication is taken into
account when programming the pump and/or lling the reservoir. Failure to
do so may result in medication in the reservoir becoming depleted sooner
than expected. If the pump is being used to deliver critical or life sustaining
medication, the interruption in the delivery of medication could result in
patient injury or death.
•System delivery inaccuracies beyond ± 6% may occur as a result of back
pressure or uid resistance, which depends upon temperature, drug
viscosity, catheter size, extension set tubing (for example, microbore),
in-line components (such as lters and needleless access connectors), and
placing the infusion reservoir and/or pump above or below the level of the
patient. System delivery inaccuracy may result in under or overdelivery of
medication.

CADD™ Ambulatory Tubing Set Testing
One representative medication for each of the following routes of delivery was tested for drug
interaction with pump disposables. Use any selected drug in accordance with the indications included
in the drug package insert. Administration of any drug by the CADD®-Solis VIP ambulatory infusion
pump is limited by any warnings, precautions, or contraindications in the drug labeling.
Route of Delivery Drug Tested
Intravenous, subarachnoid space (intrathecal) Morphine Sulfate Injection
Intra-arterial Floxuridine for Injection, USP
Intraperitoneal Dianeal with dextrose
Epidural space, local inltration
(subcutaneous, perineural, surgical site)
Ropivacaine HCl Injection
Remote Dose Cord
Smiths Medical provides a remote dose cord for use by the patient. e push button is a single pole double
throw (SPDT) switch. When the remote dose cord is attached to the pump, the patient may press the
remote dose cord button to receive a PCA dose. For easy access, the remote dose cord may be fastened to
the patient’s clothing or bedsheet with the attached clip.
NOTE: To detach the remote dose cord from the pump, grasp the remote dose cord connector and pull
straight back using a straight, steady motion.
CAUTION: Do not twist or turn the remote dose cord connector, or use any instrument to remove it from
the pump.
For additional specications, refer to the instructions for use provided with the product.

BatterIes
Batteries
Recommended Batteries
AA 1.5 volt primary (non-rechargeable) alkaline batteries (for example, Duracell®PC1500 / MN1500,
IECLR6) or the CADD®-Solis rechargeable battery pack are recommended for use in the CADD®-Solis
VIP ambulatory infusion pump.
Note: Smiths Medical does not recommend mixing new and used batteries; doing so may aect low
battery alarm times. Always select four new batteries when replacing depleted batteries.
CAUTION: Inspect the AA batteries for damage or wear to the metal or plastic insulation prior to use, or
after the pump has been dropped or hit. Replace the batteries if any damage is noted.
Replacing the Battery Door
If the battery door is removed or needs replacing, simply snap the door onto the
bar that is located on the pump.
CADD®-Solis Rechargeable Battery Pack
e battery pack is made up of a lithium-ion cell. When fully charged, its capacity is 5.2 Wh.
Each battery pack can sustain a minimum of 500 charge/discharge cycles. Within the operating
temperature range of 2°C to 40°C (36°F to 104°F), the battery pack becomes fully charged in 4hours or less.
e battery pack can be recharged using the CADD®-Solis AC adapter. It can be plugged directly into the
AC adapter or it recharges in the CADD®-Solis VIP pump with an AC adapter attached.
NOTE: Periodically inspect the rechargeable battery pack for damage or wear to the metal or plastic
insulation. Discontinue use if any damage is noted.
See the instructions for use supplied with the rechargeable battery pack for more information.
Battery Storage
e CADD®-Solis rechargeable battery pack should not be stored in a refrigerator. Recommended storage
conditions are 19°C to 25°C (66°F to 77°F).
Alkaline batteries should not be stored in a refrigerator. Recommended storage conditions are 10°C to
24°C (50°F to 75°F) with no more than 65% non-condensing relative humidity.
Battery power is quickly depleted at temperatures below 10°C (50°F). Aer 4 years of storage at 21°C
(70°F), an alkaline battery retains approximately 86% of its original capacity. Battery life is shorter if
the battery is stored above room temperature. An alkaline battery stored at 43°C (110°F) discharges to
approximately 80% of its capacity within one year.
Battery Life
Battery life is dependent on the following factors:
•Programmed delivery rate
•Operating temperatures
•Frequency of use and intensity of display backlighting
•Duration of use of the USB connector
•Battery storage conditions
•Battery type and brand
•Battery age

BatterIes
e following tables may be used to predict typical alkaline battery and CADD®-Solis rechargeable battery
pack life at dierent delivery rates. As expected, battery life decreases as the delivery rate increases.
Alkaline battery
life with screen
backlight intensity
set to 3
These estimates are based on laboratory tests conducted at room temperature
using new batteries (Duracell®PC1500 / MN 1500, IEC LR6). Actual battery life
varies depending on the battery brand, shelf life, temperature conditions,
delivery rate, and frequency of screen display and backlighting. It is
recommended that new batteries be kept available for replacement.
