Patient Monitor User Manual Alarms
- 52 -
NOTE:
1. When the monitor is connected with central monitoring system, you must set
Disconnect Alarm to On.
2. If Disconnect Alarm occurs during audio alarm paused or audio alarm off status, the
monitor will prompt a sounding alarm with information of Network Disconnect.
During the network disconnected status, activating audio alarm paused or audio
alarm off function can disable the audio alarm signal of Disconnect Alarm.
6.2 Alarm Cause
An alarm occurs when:
1. A physiological alarm is evoked;
2. An alarm for error of the system (technical alarm) is evoked;
3. A general alert occurs.
A. Conditions that activate the parameter alarms:
The measurement value exceeds the alarm limit and the alarm is set to ON.
B. Conditions that activate the system alarms (technical alarm):
Upon the system error, the monitor prompts an alarm immediately.
C. General alert
In some circumstances, alerts will behave as physiological alarms. But in normal sense, we do not
regard them as real patient health related items.
6.3 Audio Alarm Paused
To activate the audio alarm paused function, you can select SYSTEM MENU > MAINTAIN >
USER MAINTAIN > ALARM SETUP, and set ALM SILENCE TIME to 1 MIN, 2 MIN or 3
MIN (The default duration of auditory alarm pause is 2MIN), then press Mute button on the front
panel to pause audio alarm. During the audio alarm paused status:
In the information area, the monitor displays audio alarm off icon and Audio Alarm
Paused XXX S with a red background.
The audio alarm is paused, and no alarms are sounding.
The visual alarm indications are still displayed.
Other audible signals are not affected, including beat volume, key volume.
Auditory alarm will resume when you press Mute button again or the paused time terminates.

sounding.
