1. A fluid pump, comprising:
a pump console comprising a display, a motor, and a sensor; and
a pump cassette connected to the pump console comprising a cassette identifier, a pump mechanism, a fluid inlet, and a fluid outlet,
wherein the sensor detects the cassette identifier, and
wherein the pump console determines whether the pump mechanism is a centrifugal pump mechanism or a peristaltic pump mechanism depending on the detected cassette identifier of the pump cassette, provides feedback to a user regarding whether the pump mechanism of the pump cassette is a centrifugal pump mechanism or a peristaltic pump mechanism, and adjusts at least one operating parameter of the motor depending on the detected cassette identifier of the pump cassette to drive the pump mechanism of the pump cassette,
wherein:
when the pump mechanism of the pump cassette is the centrifugal pump mechanism, the feedback provided to the user comprises displaying, on the display, a centrifugal pump mode and a plurality of centrifugal pump flow setting options, and
when the pump mechanism of the pump cassette is the peristaltic pump mechanism, the feedback provided to the user comprises displaying, on the display, a peristaltic pump mode.
