Abstract

In a method for setting an operational parameter in a medical device (1) an input device (10) is actuated to set an operational parameter (110) displayed on a display device (11) of the medical device (1), wherein the input device (10) is advanceable in an actuation direction (D1, D2) by movement steps (α) to increase or decrease the operational parameter (110) by a change amount associated with a movement step (α). Herein, when advancing the input device (10), said change amount is adapted from a fine-tuning-state value to a tuning-state value larger than the fine-tuning-state value in case a first condition is met. In this way a method for setting an operational parameter in a medical device is provided which allows for an easy and comfortable adjustment of an operational parameter for programming the medical device, for example in the context of an infusion operation.
