摘要：
A method for detecting the appropriate connection of ports of an endoscope (200) to an endoscope processor (10； 12), the method comprising the steps of: providing a pressure pulse to a first connector (31) in the endoscope processor , the first connector being connected to a first port (230) in the endoscope, the first port being in fluid communication with a first lumen (217) in the endoscope； measure the pressure at a first point (42) which, if the endoscope is properly connected to the endoscope processor, will be in fluid communication with the first lumen； determine an appropriate connection status of the endoscope (2000) to the endoscope processor (10； 12) based on the pressure measurements at the first point； wherein the endoscope processor (10, 12) comprises a second connector (31) that is connectable to a second port (232) in the endoscope (200), the second port being in fluid communication with a second lumen (212) in the endoscope, the first and second lumen being in fluid communication with each other, and where the first point (42) is in the endoscope processor and in fluid communication with the second connector； where the pressure pulse is provided by a first pump (32) associated with the first connector (31)； and characterized in that a second pump (32) is associated with the second connector (31) and produces pressure pulses at a different frequency from the first pump, and where a rhythmic frequency formed by the difference between the frequency of the first pump and the Second pump indicates an appropriate connection of the first connector (31) with the first port (230) and the second connector (31) with the second port (232).Un método para detectar la conexión apropiada de puertos de un endoscopio (200) a un procesador de endoscopio (10； 12), comprendiendo el método las etapas de: proporcionar un pulso de presión a un primer conector (31) en el procesador de endoscopio, estando conectado el primer conector a un primer puerto (230) en el endoscopi
