VF4 Infinity Gamma Series Page 5-7
NOTES:
! The AutoSet function sets alarm limits for all parameters at
once, even for those not displayed on the current page of the
Alarm Limits table. Exception: There is no AutoSet function
for PVC.
! If a parameter value is not currently available (e.g. during a
lead-off condition), the monitor does not adjust the alarm limit
for that parameter when you click on AutoSet.
! After using the AutoSet function, you can change individual
alarm limits at any time.
! Due to slight rounding differences in values, the alarm limits
display for kPa values at the central station does not match the
alarm limits display for kPa values at the Infinity Gamma
Series monitor.
For the AutoSet function, the monitor calculates alarm limits as a
percentage of the current parameter values as follows:
Parameter Upper Limit Lower Limit
SpO
2
fixed at 100%* -5%
HR, PLS, Rsp, etCO

, iCO
2
,
RRc, GP1, GP2, and NBP
+20% -15%
Scio Multigas +10% -15%
Temperature +7% -7%
ST +2.0 -2.0
*For neonatal monitoring mode, the Upper Limit Adjustment is fixed at 95%.
Higher adjustments must be made manually.
