Note: Alaris Gateway Workstation v1.3.x is differentiable from
other models by the software version listed on the
back label.
Alaris
®
Gateway Workstation
The Alaris DS Docking Station, although similar in appearance to the
Workstation, does not have any connectivity features. The Alaris DS
Docking Station can be identified by the number of vertical MDI tiles,
as it has an even number compared to the Workstation which has an
odd number and that the AC power Cable socket is at the front.
Note: Please make sure to refer to the correct Workstation Directions For Use to familiarise with the specific Workstation version.
Features:
• Central management system for multiple Pumps
• Medical Device Interface (MDI) – a unique mounting mechanism providing data communications and AC power to the Pump
• Reduced cable clutter with the use of a single AC power inlet
• Efficient organisation of multiple infusion lines and configurations
• Workstation battery back-up in the event of power supply interruption
• High visibility Pump Alarm Location Beacon assists with the location of Pumps in an alarm state, when fitted
• Nurse call interface for all Pumps attached to the Workstation MDI Tiles
The Workstation supports optional upgrades to enhance the data communication interfaces and to support software for connections to
such client / server systems.
It is recommended the Workstations in a single care area should be of the same software version. Using Workstations
of different software versions could lead to inconsistent representation of Pump Alarm Signals on the Workstations.

2. Apply an upward pressure to the pole handle, this will release the locking lever and allow
the pole to move freely.
3. Changing the bag hanger height:
a) To increase the bag hanger height: Continue pushing the pole upward to the required
height. Once set, release the upward pressure on the pole, re-engaging the locking lever.
b) To reduce the bag hanger height: Hold the locking lever in the released position and
adjust the pole downward to the required height. Release the locking lever and release
the upward pressure on the pole, re-engaging the locking lever.
4. Tighten the hand wheel to securely lock the pole into position.
To reduce the potential risk for nuisance alarms, the fluid bag should be placed at the height recommended in the
specific Pump Directions For Use, bag hanger poles should be adjusted to the required height.
For Workstation configurations 80300UNSxx-235 and 80300UNSxx-035, use the bag hanger assembly PN 1000SP01414
to secure fluid bags onto the Workstation.
Power Input
The Workstation is powered from the AC supply through a standard IEC AC connector. When connected to the AC supply the AC Power
indicator is illuminated. Both the Live and Neutral lines of the main supply are protected using fuses carried in a double fuse holder
located on the AC inlet connector.
Warning: When connected to the AC supply, a three wire (Live, Neutral, Earth) supply must be used. If the integrity of the
external protective conductor in the installation or its arrangement is in doubt, then the Workstation must not be
used.
To isolate the Workstation from AC supply remove the AC connector from the source socket. The Workstation should
be positioned to allow access for disconnecting the AC connector.
Battery Supply
The Workstation should normally be operated from the AC power supply. However, in the event of temporary loss of AC power, an
internal power supply will provide 60 minutes of communications. AC power to the Pumps will be discontinued.
Warning: AC Power should be re-applied as soon as possible as there will be no AC power supplied to the Pumps while the
Workstation is running on the battery.
The Battery indicator illuminates whenever the Workstation is running from the internal battery. When illuminated the Workstation is
operating from internal battery; when flashing the battery power is low and auto power down is imminent. The battery is automatically
charged whenever the Workstation is connected to the AC supply. As the Workstation is designed to operate from the AC power supply it
will only power up when connected to the AC supply.
Caution: In the event of a power loss, the Workstation with fully charged battery will emit an audible tone every 30 seconds
for the first 14 minutes to alert operators, accompanied by a visual indicator. This audible tone and visual indicator
will escalate to every 15 seconds after 14 minutes until the battery is fully depleted. These tones and indications
should not be confused with the continuous alarm and LED notification that is initiated if the Workstation exhibits a
fault condition.
If transfer of the Workstation is required, then prior to disconnecting from AC power supply the User must ensure
there is sufficient battery power on each of the Pumps.

Alaris™ Gateway Workstation v1.3.x
Features of the Workstation
AC Power Output to Infusion Pumps
The Workstation has its own power distribution circuit to supply AC power to the attached Pumps. For safety, power is not applied to the
MDI tile IEC connector until the Pump is fully attached to the MDI tile. The AC power indicator on the infusion Pump will illuminate when
Pump is powered and charging.
Warning: The MDI tile AC outlet connection is intended only for connection to a Pump. Never attach any other equipment to
the outlet connector.
The Workstation minimises the potential for a high peak in-rush currents when AC power is simultaneously applied to the Pumps. When
the Workstation is initially switched on, or when re-connected to the AC whilst operating from the internal battery, a small delay in the
application of AC power will occur between each MDI tile. This staggers the distribution of AC power to all Pumps and therefore, reduces
the peak in-rush current.
Powering an auxiliary Workstation
Workstations are fitted with an auxiliary AC power outlet connection. However, this should not be used to power a second Workstation. If
a second Workstation is required at the bedside, plug the Auxiliary Workstation directly into a wall AC power outlet.
Note: The safe use of the auxiliary AC power outlet requires management of the
number of Pumps installed so that the system earth leakage current does not
exceed 500uA. For this reason a warning label is placed blocking access to
auxiliary AC outlet. This warning label should not be removed.

Alaris™ Gateway Workstation v1.3.x
Features of the Workstation
System Notifications
The Workstation is equipped with both audio and visual notifications to promote user awareness. System Notifications have been
segregated into four different categories: Status Notifications, System Fault Indications, Pump Alarms, and Nurse Calls based off their
required response and method of user awareness. All System Notifications generated by the Workstation are considered Information
Signals. They are not used to indicate an Alarm State but maybe used to replicate an Alarm Signal present on the attached Pumps. The
Primary and Secondary Speakers are used to generate the auditory notifications. The purpose of the Primary speaker is to relay the
Workstation’s status. Whereas the Secondary speaker indicates a failure within the system. The table below summarizes the behaviour of
the auditory speakers.
Audio Generator Approximate Sound Pressure Level @ 1 metre
Primary Speaker ≤ 45 dB(A)
Secondary Speaker ≥ 45 dB(A)
In some user environment the Sound Pressure Level of the Primary and Secondary Speakers could be less than the
ambient noise.
A high level summary of the System notifications can be found in the table below. Status Notifications are represented by small LEDs and
are the only System Notifications that use the primary speaker. System Fault Indications are represented by the System Fault Indicator
and use the secondary speaker. The Pump Alarm Location Beacon and Nurse Call are used to replicate the Pump Alarm Condition, where
fitted.

SFI System Fault Indicator Secondary Speaker Fault See ‘System Fault Indication’
Alerts generated by the Workstation should be addressed secondary to any Pump alarms
Workstations of software version 1.3.x are compatible with all alarm schemes provided by the Pumps listed in the compatibility matrix
found in the ‘Intended Use’ section of this guide. The Workstation will be compatible with the new alarm schemes on Pumps with the
latest software versions that are compliant with IEC 60601-1-8:2012 and IEC 60601-2-24:2012. For more specifics about the available
alarms schemes on each specific Pump, please refer to the specific Pump Directions for Use.
Note: The latest Pumps with alarm schemes that are compliant with IEC 60601-1-8:2012 and IEC 60601-2-24:2012 may offer two sets
of alarm tones:
• Tones compliant with aforementioned standards
• Tones that sound similar to alarm tones on legacy Alaris Infusion Pumps
It is recommended that all Pumps in a single care area be configured with the same alarm tones, where applicable,
to avoid User confusion. The Hospital/Facility is responsible for selecting and configuring the desired alarm scheme.
Legacy Workstations with software versions 1.1.3, 1.1.3 MR, 1.1.5, 1.1.6, 1.2 or 1.5 do not support the new Pump
low priority visual alarms scheme defined in IEC 60601-1-8:2012. For newer, compliant Pumps mounted onto these
Workstations, it is a possible that there will be a mismatch in the alarm priority or information signal indicated by
the Workstation and the alarm priority or information signal indicated by the Pump. Refer to each individual Pump’s
Directions for Use for further details on the alarm schemes. In any case, the User should always refer to the alarm on
the Pump for the correct priority.

Features of the Workstation
System Fault Indication
Continuous monitoring of the power distribution and communications system integrity is performed by the Workstation. In the event
that a system fault occurs whilst in use, the System Fault Indicator will be illuminated accompanied by an audible tone. To avoid any
possible interruption to the infusion, AC power to the Pumps will be maintained on the MDI tile should a system fault be detected.
In addition to scenarios described above the Workstation also briefly illuminates the System Fault Indicator and activates the audible
tone each time the Workstation is switched on.
Trigger Visual Indicator Audio Indicator Description
Communication Failure System Fault
Indicator
Secondary Speaker Communication failure of the internal components of the
Workstation.
POST failure System Fault
Indicator
Secondary Speaker Failure of any of the step defined in the ‘Operation of Workstation’
Section
Caution: If the System Fault Indicator fails to illuminate when the Workstation is switched on, remove the Workstation from
service and contact Qualified Service Personnel.
Caution: Should a System Fault occur during use, remove the Workstation from service as soon as possible and contact
Qualified Service Personnel.
The Workstation auditory SFI signal is a continuous tone.
Nurse Call Interface
A nurse call interface is provided which is activated whenever any Pump attached to the Workstation enters an alarm state, and stops
when the condition is cleared on the Pump. The Nurse Call Interface may be connected to operate in a normally open or normally closed
contact position. Verify the Nurse Call is automatically activated each time the Workstation is switched on.
The Nurse Call interface on the Workstation allows a single connection point to a hospital Nurse Call system. This Nurse Call
activates when a Pump communicates an alarm condition to the Workstation via the IrDA interface or RS232 for Alaris SE Pump. The
communication of such an alarm condition could be interrupted if, for example, the Pump was not correctly attached to the Workstation.
Caution: If the Nurse Call Interface fails to operate when the Workstation is switched on, suspect a fault with the interface.
Remove the Workstation from service and contact Qualified Service Personnel.
Caution: There may be a delay, of approximately ten seconds, between the Pump going into alarm and the Nurse Call
Interface activating via the Workstation. There may also be a delay, of approximately ten seconds, between the
Pump alarm clearing and the Nurse Call Interface de-activating via the Workstation and the Pump Alarm Location
Beacon switching off.
Caution: Where reliability of the nurse call interface is paramount, then connection has to be made from the nurse call system
directly to the nurse call interface on the Pump.
