7.10 Testing Alarms
When the monitor starts up, a self-test is performed. In this case the alarm lamp is lit in yellow and red respectively, and
the system gives a beep. This indicates that the visible and audible alarm indicators are functioning correctly.
For further testing of individual measurement alarms, perform the measurement on yourself (for example, SpO
2
or CO
2
)
or use a simulator. Then adjust alarm limits and check that appropriate alarm behavior is observed.
