Notification Description
Device Status area The area changes color and displays a message with an accompanying status icon or
button. If the alarm tone is in a pause interval, a timer countdown appears.
If multiple alarms are active, the device provides options to manually toggle or autoscroll
through the alarms. You can cycle through each alarm message in sequence of priority by
touching the multiple alarm toggle. Alternatively, the autoscroll option displays each
alarm message in sequence of priority for approximately 4 seconds, and then loops back
to the top priority message. In either option, when multiple alarm messages of the same
priority exist at the same time, the device displays the most recent of those alarm
messages first.
Information messages instruct you to interact with the monitor in a specific way or
provide information that does not require action. You can dismiss an information message
by selecting the control associated with the message or waiting for the message to time
out.
Parameter frame The background color changes. Touch this area to reset (pause or turn off) the alarm tone.
WARNING Do not pause or turn off an audible alarm if patient safety
might be compromised.
After the tone is reset, visual indicators remain until the condition is corrected, the next
measurement is taken, or the alarm is cancelled.
Alarm Limit control
The control appears in each parameter frame.
The icon in this control indicates the status of the alarm limit settings. Red and amber
icons indicate measurements that have exceeded alarm limits.
Touch this control to navigate to a parameter-specific tab where you can modify alarm
limit settings. The control also displays alarm limits in some device configurations.
