Switching pump vendors while live with EMR interoperability

Hello. Does anyone who is live with IV pump/EMR interoperability have experience with switching pump vendors? I'm wondering specifically if you had to go through a period of downtime (greater than a few hours) with interoperability when the new pumps were brought on board or if you were able to maintain interop functionality throughout the transition. Any additional tips on the transitions would also be much appreciated.
