Operating Modes and Defaults
User-Defined Defaults
In User-Defined Defaults, alarm limit and volume settings must be
adjusted. To set the User-Defined Defaults, set the alarm limits, hold the
Alarm Silence button and then press the Limits button. This sets the User-
Defined Defaults to be the same as the current alarm limits.
The Model 7500 recalls User-Defined Default settings at startup
whenever this option is selected. Once activated, User-Defined Defaults
have priority over Factory Defaults.
NOTE:
All User-Defined Default settings are retained even when both external
and battery power are lost.
Patient Security Mode
Alarm limits cannot be changed when the Model 7500 is in Patient
Security mode. Patient Security mode prevents accidental changes to
critical parameters. The Model 7500 allows users to lock and unlock alarm
limits, volume settings, and time settings through the use of Patient
Security mode. Operators will notice several operating differences with
Patient Security mode:
• Default and other previous device settings cannot be recalled.
• Clock and calendar data cannot be changed.
• SpO

and pulse rate alarm limits and volumes cannot be changed.
Pressing the Limits button allows the operator to review the limits.
• Patient memory cannot be cleared.
• To put the device into Standby mode, the ON/STANDBY button
must be held for at least 3 seconds.
• Memory playback not available.
Patient Security mode remains active even when the device is turned off
and then turned back on. Patient Security mode is retained even when
both external and battery power are lost.
NOTE:
Turn on the device and verify
Patient Security mode and settings after
initiating Patient Security mode.
