Testing Alarms
When the monitor starts up, a self-test is performed. In this case the alarm lamp is lit in yellow and red respectively, and
the system gives a beep. This indicates that the visible and audible alarm indicators are functioning correctly.
For further testing of individual measurement alarms, perform the measurement on yourself (for example SpO
2
or CO
2
)
or use a simulator. Adjust alarm limits and check that appropriate alarm behavior is observed.

Care Group Auto Alarms
When a Care Group is set up on your monitor, a flashing symbol will appear beside the QuickKeys area if any monitor in
your Care Group, which is not currently viewed by your monitor, is alarming. The alarm symbol is shown as below.
The background colors of the alarm symbols indicate alarm levels, and are the same as those of the corresponding alarm
messages. If multiple alarms are active in the Care Group, the background color is the same as that of the highest-level
alarm message. For more information about the alarm message and background color, see
When a monitor in the Care Group is disconnected, the flashing symbol is shown as below.
