Self Check Fault - Pulse Ox Module Not Available, SpO
2
/HR Not Available
Alarm triggers when the communication between the pulse oximeter module and
device fails and the user has turned off pulse oximeter monitoring acknowledging
the condition. When this is done “stby“appears in the parameter windows for
SpO
2
and HR as those parameters are no longer available. When appropriate
the user should replace the ventilator and contact the service center for
additional information.
Mitigation/Info: Internal COMM: Pulse Ox, SpO

3310
Pulse Ox Sensor Not Connected
Alarm triggers when the pulse oximeter detects that no SpO
2
sensor is
connected after a period of successful operation. NOTE: during start up the
device automatically detects if a sensor is connected. If it is, the device begins
operation with the pulse oximeter active. If no sensor is detected the device turns
off this function. If the sensor is properly connected this failure can also be the
result of a broken or defective sensor. If the alarm condition cannot be resolved
the user should remove the sensor and turn off pulse oximetry monitoring using
the SpO
2
Context menu to put the monitor in standby. Contact the service center
for additional information.
Mitigation/Info: Check Pulse Ox Sensor, Check Sensor/Ventilator
Connection, Reinsert Sensor, Replace Cable/Sensor, Replace Sensor,

3311
Defective Pulse Ox Sensor
Alarm triggers when the pulse oximeter cannot identify the connected sensor or
the sensor has failed. Causes for this alarm include: broken sensor cable,
inoperative sensor LEDs and/or faulty detector. If the alarm condition cannot be
resolved the user should suspend pulse oximetry monitoring by placing it in
standby “stby” using the SpO
2
Context menu.
Mitigation/Info: Check Pulse Ox Sensor, Check Sensor/ Ventilator
Connection, Reinsert Sensor, Cable/Sensor Damaged?, Replace
Sensor, **Turn Off Pulse Ox Monitoring**
3312
Pulse Search
Alarm triggers when the pulse oximeter is searching for a pulse signal. If a value
is not displayed within 30 seconds disconnect and reconnect sensor and reapply
to the patient. If pulse search continues, relocate it to a site that may have better
perfusion. Replace the sensor if another sensor is available. If the alarm
condition cannot be resolved the user should suspend pulse oximetry monitoring
by placing it in standby “stby”.
Mitigation/Info: Please Wait Acquiring Signal, Check Sensor Placement,
Change Placement of Probe, Minimize Patient Movement, Check
Sensor Operation/Replace, **Turn Off Pulse Ox Monitoring**
