Managing Alarms
12.1.6. Alarm Validation
Under the password-protected Setup Alarms menu (under the Setup
Administration menu), there is a feature called Alarm Validation. When this
feature is enabled, certain parameter limit violations are not considered to be in
alarm until they have existed for a certain time period, as listed below:
Limit Violation
Alarm Validation
Time
HR Upper Limit 5 seconds
HR Lower Limit 5 seconds
RR Upper Limit 5 seconds
SpO
2
Upper Limit 5 seconds
SpO
2
Lower Limit 5 seconds
IBP Upper Limit 5 seconds
IBP Lower Limit 5 seconds
The purpose of this feature is to reduce nuisance alarms in which parameter
values may go out of limits for a very short time.
Note
– Alarm Validation is enabled as a factory default.
12.1.7. Alarm Handling at Start-up

monitored on a given patient.
12.1.8. Alarm Reports
When the Nightingale PPM3 is connected to the MPC Central Station, an alarm
report is stored at the MPC for each medium- and high-grade alarm that is
annunciated for the HR parameter. This includes upper and lower limit
