Cardinal Enteral Pumps

My organization recently switched from the "old" version of Cardinal's enteral pump to their newer model. Issues have been reported in our PEDS/PICU related to occlusion alarms. Nurses overall are not happy about alarm volumes in general (too quiet). Are other hospitals having similar experiences? Do you have troubleshooting tips to share?

Thanks,
