N-560 Operator's Manual
The N-560 has three levels of audible alarms.
1. High-priority alarm: A high-pitched, fast-pulsating tone indicating
loss of pulse with no patient motion.
2. Medium-priority alarm: A medium-pitched, normal-pulsating tone
indicating an SpO
or pulse rate limit violation.

During a medium-priority alarm, the green display turns red and
flashes with the patient parameter that violated the limit (%SpO
Pulse Rate). If the alarm is a SatSeconds alarm, the SatSeconds
indicator (clock) will flash.
3. Low-priority alarm: A low-pitched, slow-pulsating tone indicating a
sensor disconnect, low battery, or N-560 failure.
During a low-battery alarm, the
and the alarm tone sounds immediately, even if the alarms are
silenced or set to OFF.
