29. SILENCE key
A quick press of this key pauses the current alarm for two (2) minutes, after which alarm tone 
resumes if alarm limits are still violated. If a new alarm condition occurs during the two (2) 
minutes, a new alarm tone sounds. Pressing and holding this key for more than two (2) 
seconds disables alarm tones indefinitely. If a new alarm condition occurs while in this state, 
the monitor automatically exits the alarm silenced state.
30. Silence indicator
• Dark (Normal state): when an alarm occurs, the monitor presents an alarm tone, 
visual indication, and message according to the alarm level.
• Illuminated: Alarm silenced state: when an alarm occurs, the monitor presents a 
visible alarm and alarm message, but no alarm tone is given. If a new alarm condition 
occurs, the monitor automatically exits the alarm silenced state.
• Flash (Alarm paused status): when an alarm occurs, the monitor displays a visible 
alarm and alarm message, but no alarm tone is given. The alarm paused time is 120 
seconds, after which the alarm tone sounds again if alarm limits are still violated. The 
unit counts down the 120 seconds on the LCD Display (17) in place of the date and 
time. If a new alarm occurs during this period, the monitor automatically exits the 
alarm paused state.
