5.2.9 Alarm Priority

Only one kind of alarm can be given at once. For example, if a
medium alarm and a high alarm occur at the same time, the high
alarm will take priority.
If the pulse beep and audio alarm sound at the same time, the
oximeter will only give an alarm sound.

5.2.10 Alarm Delay

There is a delay between a physiological event at the measurement
site and the corresponding alarm at the oximeter. This delay has
two components:
1. The time between the occurrence of the physiological event
and when this event is represented by the displayed numerical
values. This delay depends on the algorithmic processing time and
the sensitivity setting. The lower the sensitivity configured, the
longer the time needed until the numerical values reflect the
physiological event.
2. The time between the displayed numerical values exceeding
an alarm limit and the alarm indication on the oximeter. This delay
is the combination of the configured alarm delay time plus the
general system delay time.
