Alarm Setup Of Each Parameter - EDAN M3A User Manual

M3A Vital Signs Monitor User Manual
Do not rely exclusively on the audible alarm system for patient monitoring. Adjustment of
alarm volume to a low level or off during patient monitoring may result in patient danger.
Remember that the most reliable method of patient monitoring combines close personal
surveillance with correct operation of monitoring equipment.
NOTE:
1 The monitor does not have alarm condition delay or alarm signal generation delay.
2 When alarms of different levels occur at the same time, the monitor prompts one of the
highest levels.
3 If the monitor is powered off and then turned on, the alarm setup can resume to the
setup which is set before the power-off.
5.1.3 Alarm Setup
Set Alarm Setup in Main Menu to open the submenu as shown below. The user can turn ON or
OFF the alarm for each parameter, and set the upper alarm limit and lower alarm limit for each
parameter by High or Low.

Alarm setup of each parameter
