Abstract
A graphical operator machine interface for a dialysis machine and a method of graphically programming the dialysis machine involves graphically accessing substantially all typical machine operating and dialysis treatment parameters employed in a typical dialysis treatment, and graphically entering selections with respect to each of the selected parameters. The selections of the individual parameters establish display screens which individually present the selected parameters. The selections of the individual parameters also allow the operator to establish values for those selected parameters. The parameters include those involved for setup of the machine for dialysis treatment, those monitored during treatment, the alarm limits established during the treatment, and parameters which allow the automatic initiation of machine functionality prior to the use of the machine for treatments.
