Arrhythmia Alarm Mode Setup
Since arrhythmia alarm is instantaneous during arrhythmia analysis, it is suggested that user select Latch
Alarm for arrhythmia detections to prevent any possible failure to responding to arrhythmia information
which could happen when Unlatch Alarm mode is selected. You can set Latch Alarming in [User
Maintain>>]-[Alarm Config>>]-[Alarm Mode].

Arrhythmia Threshold Setup
Select [Alarm Setup]-[Arrh.Threshold], then user can set threshold for arrhythmia, and alarm is to be
triggered in case that an arrhythmia exceeds the preset threshold.
