7.5 ALARMS
The device monitors various parameters during operation and utilizes an intelligent alarm system to
indicate a malfunction of the concentrator. Mathematical algorithms and time delays are used to reduce
the probability of false alarms while still ensuring proper notification of an alarm condition. If multiple
alarm conditions are detected, the highest priority alarm will be displayed. Note that failure to respond to
the cause of an alarm condition potentially will result in discomfort or reversible minor injury only (e.g.,
reduced oxygen supply or a burn). In case of an alarm, seek to address the issue and/or switch to a
backup source of oxygen.
WARNING
Audible alarms are to warn the user of problems. To ensure that audible alarms may be heard, the
maximum distance that the user can move away from it must be determined based on the surrounding
noise level. Make sure the device is in a location where the alarms can be heard or seen if they occur.
The following section provides a listing and description of every possible alarm condition. The alarm
system is intended to notify an operator while wearing the device in a shoulder bag or while the device is
set down within range of an acceptable nasal cannula.
If the power plug is removed when a battery is connected, the alarms will work normally. If there is no
battery or the device is not connected to AC or DC power, the alarms will not activate because there is no
power. With the battery connected, a power loss lasting less than 30 seconds will have no effect on the
alarm system.
IMPORTANT: If multiple alarm conditions are detected, the highest priority alarm will be displayed.
IMPORTANT: Failure to respond to the cause of an alarm will result in discomfort or reversible injury only
(e.g. reduced oxygen supply or a burn). In case of an alarm, seek to address the issue and/or switch to a
backup source of oxygen.
7.5.1 ALARM LOG
The device maintains a patient accessible alarm log that allows for the last alarm to be accessed and
viewed on the LCD (except for the no-breath-detect, check cannula, battery low / attach plug and battery
empty / attach plug alarms). The alarm log is retained in memory after the device experiences a total loss
of power. To access the alarm log, ensure the concentrator is plugged and turned off. Then hold the
plus (+) button for 5 seconds. Alternatively, the alarm log can be found in the Advanced Tab of the Inogen
Connect App under Error Recall.
Once a new alarm is activated the new alarm overwrites the previous alarm. The alarm log is retained in
memory after the device is powered down. The time elapsed since the error occurred is displayed with the
last alarm on the alarm log. The device also maintains a service and repair alarm log that is not accessible
by the patient.
7.5.2 INFORMATIONAL SIGNALS (LEVEL 1)
