This LCD window is a two-line textual display for alarms, messages,
menu items, and settings. The LCD display backlight automatically
turns on whenever you access the menu or the system displays an
alarm or a message. In the absence of alarm or message, the LCD
returns to home state. The bottom line will display “New Patient” and
the top line will be either blank or show the time of day (Rev 1.2E
