Choosing whether a syringe pump should start when the test starts

In brief

You can optionally set a syringe pump to start when a test starts. This option can be very useful combined with a target volume, as the pump will switch on at the start of the test, infuse (or withdraw) the target volume, and then stop.

If you don't select this option, the only way to start the pump during the test will be using a procedure. If you don't do this either, the pump simply won't ever switch on and nothing will be infused (or withdrawn).
