Troubleshooting Arjo - Flowtron Excel

Why isn't it starting? I hooked up the orange tubing, and opened it up to check if the interior tubes were connected to the pump. Everything seems to be connected correctly, but when I turn it on, it does not pump. Usually when the Flowtron does not start pumping when connected to the orange tubing, an interior tube is loose or disconnected and I just reconnect it and it starts to pump, but this is not the case. Any advice is appreciated.

Are there any error codes displayed?  Go into service mode and check for errors:

Service mode gives additional information on the type of alarm fault.

To access the service mode, hold the Single Leg button down for approximately 13 seconds. The unit will then ‘beep’ and the red LED on the top panel will be constantly displayed.

The main display will now indicate the actual pressure to 1 mmHg resolution and also display the detailed fault codes.
