7.1 Functional Alarms

Note: Both visual and audible alarms will persist until the underlying cause of
the alarm has been addressed and resolved.
If an alarm is activated, the user can press the audio paused key to temporarily
silence the audible alarm for 2 minutes. However, the visual alarm will continue
fl ashing until the problem causing the alarm is resolved.
In the event that the alarm is muted and a new alarm situation arises, the mute
function will remain in e ect. Only the visual indication for the new alarm will
appear on the screen.
Alarms are displayed in sub-sections A-D. High-priority alarms are indicated
with a red 'Warning' symbol, while medium and low-priority alarms have a
yellow symbol.
The eAdvantage® device can display multiple alarm symbols simultaneously if
there are several failures occurring at the same time. In such cases, the audible
alarm will correspond to the highest-priority alarm.
The patient e ort cell is located at the center of the screen above the mixture
dials as shown below. This symbol will be displayed during the whole phase of
patient-demanded breaths.
Note: The dark grey cells shown below are not visible on the actual device
screen. They are included in the following illustration for demonstration
purposes.
