Syringe-Pump Software for PC and MAC Runs up to 99 Syringe Pumps

June 8, 1994 -- SoftPump, developed for controlling the SP200 line of
syringe pumps from World Precision Instruments, simplifies control and
extends your pump's range of uses as well. The program lets you define
complex infusion/withdrawal experiments step-by-step using simple,
straightforward virtual instrument control panels on your computer screen.
Your computer then executes these experiments with little or no attention,
and with a precision difficult to match using manual controls. You can
trigger pumps either by time elapsed, by volume infused/withdrawn, or by a
combination of the two. Set a level infusion/withdrawal rate, or specify a
controlled rate of increase or decrease. Softpump includes a full menu of
syringe types by manufacturer, and displays the correct syringe diameter
when you choose the desired volume size. You can manipulate these and
other parameters to define experimental protocols involving as many as 99
syringe pumps and as many as 999 "steps", or changes in parameter.
Programming expertise is completely unnecessary. Volume ranges from
plus-or-minus 99 milliliters to a fraction of a microliter. Rate ranges
from 99 ml/ hr to a fraction of 1 microliter/min. SoftPump monitors pump
function continuously and beeps in case of pump malfunction. A graphic
"syringe" displayed onscreen gives a quick analog reference to the amount
of volume moved versus the amount remaining to be moved, while a clock
shows the time remaining until the next program step. At the same time, a
color graph of fluid volume infused/withdrawn versus time elapsed and a
digital readout provide precise data available in real time and forming
permanent record of the experiment.
