Note:
During multiple-alarm conditions, alarms are presented as follows:
If two medium-priority alarms occur simultaneously, the alarm status message toggles between the
•
two.
If a medium-priority and low-priority alarm occur simultaneously, only the medium-priority alarm is
•
displayed and only the medium-priority tone is sounded.
A medium-priority physiological alarm overrides a low-priority alarm.
