and low level alarm (multi-optional). If you don’t make choice, nurse call signal will not be sent out.
“Duration”:
two options “pulse” or “continuous” output modes are available;
“continuous”:
the continuous mode of output means the nurse call signal will keep until the selected
alarm source(es) disappear, i.e. the signal will last from starting alarm to stopping alarm.
“pulse”:
the output nurse call signal is pulse signal which lasts for 1 second. When several alarms
occur at the same time, only one pulse signal will be sent out.
Note:
Nurse Call function can not be regarded as main alarm notice method, please do not
entirely relay on it. You should combine parameter values with alarm level and patient’s clinical
behavior and symptom to determine patient’s status.
