Acknowledging LTA Alarms
LTA alarms are latching, which means that the alarm indication will persist until both of the
following conditions are met:
1. The alarm has been acknowledged by pressing the
Alarm Pause (Silence)/Reset
button on
the front panel of the unit.
2.
The alarming condition no longer exists.
Using the Heart Rate Parameter Control Panel
To configure alarms through the Heart Rate Parameter Control Panel, use the navigation keys to
highlight and select the Heart Rate meter and display the HR/PR Parameter Control Panel:
HR/PR Parameter Control Panel
Selecting the

can enable/disable Heart Rate alarms and set alarm limits.
RESP System Message
When monitoring Respiration using impedance pneumography, the Propaq M unit may display
the following message:
System Message
Cause
RESPIRATION FAULT
The impedance measured through the ECG lead is
too high for the unit to detect Respiration changes,
but not high enough to indicate an ECG lead fault
(the impedance may vary between 1800 and 2800
ohms).
