Instructions for use Primus Infinity Empowered SW 4.5n
Dräger recommends that the user remains close to
the anesthesia machine, i.e. within a range of up to
four meters (12 ft), to allow for quick recognition
and action in the event of an alarm.
Whenever an alarm message is displayed, the
alarm LED (A) flashes or lights up continuously de-
pending on the alarm priority and an acoustic tone
sequence sounds.
In addition, a flashing help text is displayed in the
prompt field (B).
In the case of limit-based alarms, the correspond-
ing measured values will be highlighted by a
colored background and will flash.
The color of the background reflects the color-cod-
ing of the alarm priority (red, yellow, cyan).
