Storage of alarms
Once the alarm threshold is reached, all the alarm types listed in tables “8.2.4 Physiological
alarms” and “8.2.5 Technical alarms” are recorded in an alarm list with date, time and
duration. Up to 200 alarms can be stored. After that, the oldest alarm in each case is
overwritten. The alarm list can be called up by the doctor supervising treatment or by you
(see “5.5 Alarm list” on page 56).
The alarm list is retained even if the entire power supply (power supply and internal battery)
fails. In this case, the data can be called up for up to two years. The alarm list is deleted
after two years or when maintenance is carried out.
In any event, alarms are retained in the event of a power failure.
8.2.7
Passing on of alarms via the remote alarm connection
All high and medium-priority alarms are switched to a remote alarm connection in parallel.
The only low-priority alarm which is passed on to the connection is the
No power supply
alarm.
If the device is operated in a hospital, the therapy device can be connected to the hospital’s
nurse call system via the remote alarm connection.
For home ventilation, the therapy device can also be connected to the VENTI
remote alarm
box via the remote alarm connection. The remote alarm box remotely transmits and
amplifies the acoustic and visual alarm signals output by the therapy device. It is of
particular assistance to nursing staff and to relatives when looking after the patient in the
home environment.
