I.6 Remote alarm outlet
NOTE:
• Before operating the remote alarm function (nurse
call), ensure that the remote alarm function is opera-
tional.
• When the remote alarm function (nurse call) is used
in an isolation ward, regularly verify the remote
alarm function is operational.
The remote alarm (nurse call) capability allows alarm conditions
to be activated at locations away from the ventilator (for exam-
ple, when the ventilator is in an isolation room).
This application requires the hardware shown in Figure I-4. The
device sends alarm signals to a nurse call device through the
15-pin (Special Interface) connector. The Connect Pin assign-
ment subsection (see Table I-3) lists the pin assignments for this
connector.
Press the alarm silence key located on the Ventilator Cockpit to
silence the audible portions of both alarms on the ventilator
and the remote alarm device.
The remote alarm capability is based on a relay inside the ven-
tilator. Figure I-4 show the alarm and non-alarm circuit posi-
tions for the relay. Use either pins 7 and 14 or pins 7 and 6,
depending on the logic of your nurse call system (normally
open or normally closed).
