Temperature Alarm Limits
Alarms occurring during the process of temperature measurement include two (2) types:
physiological alarms and technical alarms. Physiological alarms occur when the patient’s
temperature values are equal to or exceed set alarm limits. Technical alarms are any
temperature-related alarms, which are not physiological, such as functional failures.
ALM Allows the user to turn the TEMP alarm ON or OFF. Choose ON to
enable the alarm; choose OFF to disable the alarm. If the alarm is set
to OFF, the alarm OFF symbol will display to the right of TEMP
on the screen. The TEMP alarm is activated when the temperature
value exceeds set high or low TEMP values.
ALM PRIORITY Enables priority selection for the TEMP alarm. Choices are 1, 2 and
3. Priority 1 alarms are considered the most serious.
ALM PRINT Enables or disables automatic printing during a TEMP alarm
condition. Choose ON to enable printing upon TEMP alarm. Choose
OFF to disable printing upon TEMP alarm.
TEMP ALM HI Allows the user to set the upper limit of Temperature 1 alarm. (See
“Temperature Alarm Limits” on page 2-54.)
TEMP ALM LO Allows the user to set the lower limit of Temperature 1 alarm. (See
“Temperature Alarm Limits” on page 2-54.)
TEMP UNIT Allows the user to select the unit of measure for temperature. The
selections are degrees Celsius (°C) or degrees Fahrenheit (°F).
