6.11 Latching Alarms
The latching setting for physiological alarms defines how alarm indicators behave when
you do not acknowledge them.
â– If an alarm is latched, alarm indications remain presented even though alarm
conditions end, except that:
â—† The parameter reading and violated alarm limit stop flashing.
â—† The time when the alarm is last triggered is displayed after the alarm
message.
â– 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].
â—† [High only]: only high priority alarms are latched;
â—† [Hi&Med]: both high priority alarms and medium priority alarms are
latched;
â—† [All]: all alarms are latched; and
â—† [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.
