1. A method of managing a modular infusion pump device, comprising:
- coupling a modular infusion pump to a control unit;
establishing a data link between the modular infusion pump and control unit upon coupling the modular infusion pump to the control unit;
transferring data between the modular infusion pump and the control unit as a result of the coupling of the modular infusion pump to the control unit; and
adjusting the behavior of the modular infusion pump and the control unit as a result of coupling the modular infusion pump to the control unit, wherein adjusting the behavior is different depending on the whether the infusion pump module is coupled to the control unit wirelessly, electrically or mechanically.

Abstract
A patient care system includes a control unit capable of coupling with multiple modular medical devices. A modular medical device can be coupled with the control unit, wherein the behavior of the modular medical device automatically adjusts based on the status of being coupled or un-coupled with the control unit.
