2. Select the Alarm tab.
3. Enter the password if required.
4. Set Apnea Delay.
• The respiration monitoring does not recognize the cause of apneas. It only indicates an alarm if no
breath is detected when a preadjusted time has elapsed since the last detected breath. Therefore, it
cannot be used for diagnostic purposes.
