Introduction Alarms
6 - 2 TMS60 Operator’s Manual
6.1 Introduction
Alarms, triggered by technical problems, are visually and audibly indicated to the user
when the display is on.
The TD60 provides a subset of the technical alarms, this chapter describes the technical
alarms presented at the TD60 only. For details regarding full list of the technical alarms
as well as the physiological alarms displayed at the Central Monitoring System (CMS),
refer to
"Physiological Alarms" on page 12 - 2 .
6.2 Alarm Categories
The TD60’s alarm system only supports technical alarms and does not provide visual or
audible physiological alarms at the Device. These physiological alarms can only be
viewed at the CMS. See
BeneVision Central Monitoring System Operator’s Manual for
details on physiological alarms.
Technical alarms are triggered by system status, patient status, a device malfunction or a
patient data distortion due to improper operation or mechanical problems. Technical
alarms are available both at the TD60 and the CMS.
In addition to the technical alarms, the TD60 also displays informational message to
inform the user of patient/system status. The TD60 will display informational messages
in the message area at the top of the display.
6.3 Alarm Levels
The alarms can be classified into three severity levels: high level, medium level and low
level.
WARNING
•
The reception failure of alarm signals may occur in the distributed alarm
system.
Alarm Levels Technical alarms
High level Indicates a severe device malfunction or an improper operation, which could
make it possible that the monitor cannot detect critical patient status and
thus threaten the patient’s life, such as low battery.
Medium level Indicates a device malfunction or an improper operation, which may not
threaten the patient’s life but may compromise the monitoring of vital physi-
ological parameters.
