6.11 Latching Alarms
The latching setting for physiological alarms defines how alarm indicators behave when
you do not acknowledge them.
■ If an alarm is latched, alarm indications remain presented even though alarm
conditions end, except that:
◆ The parameter reading and violated alarm limit stop flashing.
◆ The time when the alarm is last triggered is displayed after the alarm
message.
■ If an alarm is not latched, the alarm indications disappear as soon as the alarm
conditions end.
When the alarm system is reset, the latched physiological alarms are cleared.
To latch a physiological alarm,
1. Select [Main] → [Maintenance >>] → [User Settings >>] → Enter required
password → Select [Ok] and then access [User Settings] menu.
2. Select [Alarm Setup >>].
3. Set [Alarm Latch] to [High only], [High&Med], [All] or [Off].
◆ [High only]: only high priority alarms are latched;
◆ [Hi&Med]: both high priority alarms and medium priority alarms are
latched;
◆ [All]: all alarms are latched; and
◆ [Off]: no alarm will be latched.
Only the unacknowledged physiological alarm can be latched. The latched alarms will
be cleared when the monitor enters the alarm reset state.
