5.5.13 L R
OW ESPIRATORY
This setting enables or disables the Low Respiratory Rate alarm. The alarm activates when the measured
respiratory rate is less than or equal to this setting. You can choose Off to disable this alarm, or you can
increase or decrease the setting from 4 BPM to 80 BPM in 1 BPM increments. It cannot be set higher than the
High Respiratory Rate setting.
5.5.14 H R
IGH ESPIRATORY
This setting enables or disables the High Respiratory Rate alarm. The alarm activates when the measured
respiratory rate reaches or exceeds this setting. You can choose Off to disable this alarm, or you can increase
or decrease the setting from 4 BPM to 80 BPM in 1 BPM increments. It cannot be set lower than the Low
Respiratory Rate except to be turned off.
5.5.15 L I
OW NSPIRATORY
This setting configures the Low inspiratory Pressure alarm. It is only user-settable in CV, AC, and SIMV
modes. It cannot be set lower than PEEP + 2 pressure units or higher than the High Inspiratory Pressure. For
passive circuits, you can increase or decrease the Low Inspiratory Pressure from 6 to 40 pressure units in
increments of 1. For active circuits, you can increase or decrease the setting from 2 to 40 pressure units in
increments of 1. For pressure modes, this alarm is not user-settable.
5.5.16 H I
IGH NSPIRATORY
This setting enables or disables the High inspiratory Pressure alarm. It is only user-settable in CV, AC, and
SIMV modes. The High Inspiratory Pressure cannot be set lower than the Low Inspiratory Pressure. You can
increase or decrease the High Inspiratory Pressure from 10 to 80 pressure units in increments of 1. For
pressure modes, this alarm is not user-settable.

DDITIONAL
The Settings and Alarms menu also contains many additional settings specific to the various therapy modes.
The specific settings for each therapy mode are described below.
5.6.1 C
ONTINUOUS
In addition to the general settings described in the previous section of this manual, you can also set the
following setting in CPAP mode.
1. CPAP
You can increase or decrease the CPAP pressure setting from 4 to 20 pressure units in increments
of 1.
If the CPAP pressure is set to 4 (the minimum setting), the Ramp Length setting will be unavailable.
2. Trigger Type
The Trilogy can be set to trigger breaths based on automatic flow thresholds or specific flow
settings. You can select either Auto-Trak or Flow Trigger as the Trigger Type. When Auto-Trak is
selected, the AutoTrak trigger initiates based on automatic flow thresholds. When Trigger Type is
