9.2 Pre-alarms and operating
alarms
WARNING! Danger to the patient
from an incorrectly set alarm limits.
Q
Ensure that the alarm limits are set
so that the alarm can be triggered
in good time. This applies for maxi-
mum pressure in particular.
The operating alarm has a high priority.
Pre-alarms and reminder alarms have a
lower priority. Ifthere are two pre-alarms
at the same time, the pre-alarm with the
shorter remaining time is displayed.
The time lag between the triggering of the
alarm and the activation of a sta call is less
than a second and is therefore negligible.
If the power supply to the device is cut for
less than 30 seconds, the alarm information
is still retrievable because it is stored by
capacitors in the device.
