2) Select [Limits] at the lower right corner of [Auto Limit] page.
3) Select [OK] on the pop-up dialog window.
You can also set the auto alarm limit for one parameter from the parameter menu.
The monitor calculates auto alarm limits. The user has to confirm if these limits are appropriate for the patient.
Outside this range, no auto limit is calculated, and should be manually adjusted, based on the clinician’s judgement
about the specific patient.
7.8 Set Alarm Volume
7.8.1 Set Minimum Alarm Volume
1) Click [Main Menu] hot key → [System] → [Maintenance], enter the maintenance password and click the Enter
key.
2) Select [Alarm] tab → [Audio] tab.
3) Select [Minimum Alarm Volume].
7.8.2 Set Alarm Volume
1) Enter [Setup] screen in any of the ways listed below:
Click [Alarm Setup] hot key → Select [Setup] tab.
Click [Main Menu] hot key → [Alarm] → [Setup].
2) Set [Alarm Volume]. The range of alarm volume is X ~ 10. X represents the minimum alarm volume, which
depends on the Minimum Alarm Volume setting.
3) Set [High Alarm Volume].
4) Set [Reminder Volume].
When the alarm volume is set to 0, the monitor cannot sound an alarm even if a new alarm is generated.
Therefore, you should consider this when setting the alarm volume to 0.
Do not rely on the audible alarm. Otherwise, patient safety may be at risk if the alarm is set at a low
volume. Pay close attention to the patient’s actual clinical conditions.
Adjusting the sound pressure level of the audible alarm signal to less than the ambient noise level will
hinder the operator from identifying an alarm state.
Maximum alarm volume is 10.
When the alarm volume is set to 0, the setting of [High Alarm Volume] is invalid.
