Chapter 14. Alarms and Notifications
14.1. Alarm Messages and Responses
14.1.1. There are five different alarm levels: Very High, High, Medium,
Low and Very Low. If an alarm occurs while the Driver is
supporting the patient, refer to
Table 14-1
for alarms and their
corrective actions. For alarms observed while the Driver is not
supporting a patient, contact SynCardia for additional information.
If more than one alarm occurs, the highest priority alarm message
is shown first in the Alarm Bar.
Very High, High, Medium and Low Alarms are accompanied with
an audible notice between 70-80 decibels. They vary in
occurrence and frequency as shown in
Table 14-1.
Very low
alarms do not have an audible notice.
The graphical user interface software requires two minutes to fully
load after the power is turned on with the key switch. No Driver
alarms are active during this time.
