Alarms

The intended operator's position for correctly perceiving a visual alarm signal and its priority is
1 meter (3.3 feet).

Alarm Function

An alarm activates under certain conditions, such as if an alarm limit is outside the set limits, if
the patient is not connected, or if an equipment fault occurs. The alarm is both visual (a blinking
parameter, limit, or a message) and audible (beeping tones at different intervals).
If an alarm activates when the trend screen is displayed, the monitor returns to the operating
screen. When an alarm is active, the trend screen cannot be accessed.
