When there are multiple alarms, you can control which alarm is displayed by selecting its
associated icon. If the alarms are Low Priority, then the Pleth and Pressure/Time plots appear
permanently on the screen when the alarms are muted. If the alarms are Medium Priority, the
ventilator cycles through each Medium Priority Alarm every 20 seconds. You can use the
selection dial to select a particular Medium Priority Alarm and/or Plot for 20 seconds, after
which, cycling resumes. New alarms can overwrite the screen at any time based on their
priority.
Alarm Muting
Start Up Muting
At start up, the ventilator suspends active patient safety alarms, with the exception of those
alarms that could affect the performance of the device. This prevents nuisance alarms during
start up while you configure the ventilator. When the Start Menu is used, the 2-minute
countdown starts once you select a start option. Once the patient is connected, the mute cancels
automatically after 15 seconds when there are no active alarms.
Note:
When the Start Menu is not used as the powerup option the 120 seconds mute begins
immediately following the Self Check and cancels as described above.
Preemptive Muting
To prevent excessive noise in the patient care environment, alarms shown below can be
preemptively muted for 30 seconds. This enables you to prevent the audible alarm, by pressing
the Mute button, before initiating a procedure that could trigger an alarm.
Note:
During this preemptive mute of this audible alarm, the LED alarm light and alarm
message are still indicated.
