Clearing
Alarms
None of the monitor’s alarms is a latching type alarm. When an alarm
condition exists, the monitor clears the alarm at the end of the next breath
if the respiratory parameter falls within alarm limits during that breath.
SILENCE
Press this key to silence alarms for 120 seconds. During this interval,
–
if the alarm condition continues,
•
the audible alarm remains off,
•
one of the color-coded LED visual alarm indicators (lower right-
hand corner of the front panel) remains on, and
•
the red alarm status indicator (upper left-hand corner of the
fnont panel) remains on.
–
If the alarm condition exists longer than 120 seconds, the monitor
turns the audible alarm back on.
APNEA STBY
Pressing the
Apnea Stby
key disables the pressure and volume apnea
alarms. The volume apnea alarms are automatically enabled again as soon
as the next breath is detected.
Setting Alarm Limits
Four Alarm Function Keys (
High Limit, Low Limit, UP ARROW, DOWN
ARROW
) are used to change alarm limits for the five displayed respiratory
parameters (Oxygen, Pressure, Minute Volume, Tidal Volume, or
Respiratory Rate).
NOTE: All alarms are suspended while the monitor is in alarm limit
setting screens.
Execute the following steps to view or change the alarm limit setting(s) for
a specific respiratory parameter:
1. Press the parameter’s display function key.
2. Use one of the following four keys:
–
HIGH LIMIT
With the monitor set to a parameter’s display screen or to the Low
Limit Set screen, pressing the
High Limit
key opens the Set High
Limit Alarm screen for that parameter.
–
LOW LIMIT
With the monitor set to a parameter’s display screen or to the High
Limit Set screen, pressing the
Low Limit
key opens the Set Low
Limit Alarm screen for that parameter. Unlike the High Limit Set
screens, there are only four Low Limit Set screens.
